Yemanja Milele (Forever)

The Creator Supreme has blessed the Afrikan soul with the most deep and profound knowingness of powerful and dynamic life giving and life empowering elements of the sacred universe. In this,  Afrikan deities represent the power of the elements in magnificent form. As such the celebration of Afrikan deities are not the ventures of mere aesthetic feelgood or the vehicles of escapism from reality void of meaningful substance. Rather, celebrations punctuate living knowingness in a holistic way. These journeyings, gatherings and practices of joyous fulfilment contain superlative nutrients to energise the physical and spiritual in the soul and primary people of creation.  They are the time taken to enliven and energise engagement with realities of the physical and metaphysical realms empowering Afrikan spirit and mission for liberty. The observance of Yemanja Siku is one such celebration. In honour of the magnificent deity of waters Yemanja Siku emphasises eternal flow of the most bountiful substance upon the earth’s surface. Yemanja is of supreme plentifulness and forever flowing. Yemanja forever. Yemanja has.

Even from the bowels of filthy destructive anti-Afrikan propaganda spewed from the foul alien enemy institutions during the Maafa of recent centuries, Afrikan souls have fought and asserted themselves in order to etch out beacons of light. Mythological reference in fictional dramatization representing or symbolising true-to-life realities has been a life-saving and life enhancing carry over from the soul peoples’ profound wisdom tradition of time immemorial. Afrikan Imagery of colours bright painted strategy and roads to freedom in the deeply meaningful compositions of the Anansy stories in ascendancy from the backdrop of terrorising alien hell peddled as planation. Songs and a plethora of other vehicles did the same for the Afrikan divine to be restored.

In recent times, fictional dramatization has been scribed through mainstream  film. Wakanda contains powerful water flow by way of Warrior Falls. A place that is journeyed to for special ritual. This, a journeying accompanied by the rhythmic spirit expressions of Afrikan royalty. Adorned in the regal flow of Afrikan garments and accessories the gathered souls energise themselves for the deeply meaningful practices sanctified by the waterfall and consecrated by the pool in which the Afrikan souls stand. The flow of purple juice (waterflow of divine royal colouration within the Afrikan worldview) is consumed to provide the self with superlative power. Waterflow has the power to give and also has the power to purge and so the consumption of other liquid flow can be used to remove that which was given. The great ancestors and the great deity are ever present presiders. Towards the films conclusion the line ‘Just bury in the ocean with my ancestors that jumped from the ships, cause they knew that death was better than bondage’. again, highlights the significance of waterflow and its meaning to Afrikan life and the imperative for safeguarding Afrikan life and for it not to be wasted. Afrikan victory for the eternal continuum is a must and this is punctuated throughout with the phrase, ‘Wakanda Forever’.

Surely as ever increasing self-determined efforts for Afrikan victories continue, not only will meaningful message and imagery be transmitted to empower Afrikan life but all of the holistic benefits of wealth generation and total autonomy be rewarded to the wonderful spirit people of creation. Self-governance and nationhood for this whole people will determine the eternal story of this, the greatest people of the world.  

Whilst fictional dramatization can reveal valuable message content and inspire, there is no substitute for the imperative of real life engagement. Yemanja is real life deific eternal flow. Afrikans have always had a deep knowingness of her eternalness from the beginning. She is the mighty majestic life giver, life enhancer and life protector. She is a great energiser of Afrikan warriorhood. She holds the real life super power of water that has the power to give righteously and to purge to scourge of alien impurities. She is eternal. In reality speak this is Yemanja Mileli - ‘Yemanja Forever!’.

Yemanja has (and will always have) the bountiful blessings of life. As ever growing multitudes of Afrikan souls restore their own spiritual and cultural way of life and purge themselves of the ills of alien doctrine, the victory of spirit life’s full flourishing becomes manifest. During the celebration of Yemanja Siku the following words are expressed in  a chant (composed by this author)  in call and in praise of this wonderfully endowed forever deity:

Yemanya Yemanya Oye
Yemanya Yemanya Oye

Yemanya Yemanya Oye
Yemanya Yemanya Oye

Here, Oye means ‘who has’ in the lives of those Afrikans afflicted with another alien pseudo language (besides this one referred to as English). Yemanja has magnificent plenty. Yemanja has eternity.

Whether the Afrikan journeys to sea, river, waterfall and so on. Or gathers by water in a vessel at home. May Yemanja and the celebration of Yemanja continue to enhance and lift Afrikan life always.

The observance of Yemanja Siku is marked by the seventh day of ninth month (so-called September) with celebrations taking place on Sunday 7th or nearest Sunday to that date. This is a wonderful time of spiritual and cultural ascendancy in honour and celebration of this mighty water deity and her deep, profound and progressive meaning to Afrikan life. This is an important time in imperative mission for global Afrikan ascendancy. Yemanja Siku is a part of the Afrikan Cultural calendar of the Universal Royal Afrikan Nation (URAN).
