We come together in various formations in our time together on the Earth: families, groups, communities.
Ancestors
|
Everything that began at a beginning arrived when the ancestors arrived into story. The ancestors are ever with us in their invisible, non-human, variable forms. The perspective of the Old Ones lets us into a wider, wiser picture of our lives.
Kontomble have a relationship to magic, synchronicity, and healing that is well recognized by many traditions. The vibration of love that Kontomble are - the Dagara teach us - is what stands behind the ancestors, with the ancestors, to wake us up into remembering our true calling in the world.

Community |
Calling in the voices of the otherworlds together helps us better ring in the patterns of energy unique to the collective's helping spirits. A divination done in the communal format is a way in which to remember the original and evolving imprint of a collective: What is this collection of individuals here to do? What is the specific role of certain individuals here? How can their creative energies be harnessed together? How may certain conflicts be addressed? What reparations might need to be made?
By bringing community together, bringing humans in community (with Spirit), this divination format flashes us to keys that might be unavailable or impossible for individuals alone. It is an old way of coming together where we might ask why we came to be on this Earth together. In community, there is witnessing, accountability, and sharing. In community, we can learn to bridge differences and reconstitute ourselves into our highest expression of care and cooperation. In community, the potential for healing is magnified, and when we come together with the intention to call in the sacred and sacred ways, Spirit cannot but help show up. |
Healing |
There is healing in asking ancestors and kontomble to speak about questions that we, in community, have (or anything they want to say) about life and the way we walk in the world. There is healing, too, for us as unwitting participants of alienation - in remembering to work and play and pray together with love, mend ancestral and karmic legacies of mistrust and competitiveness and mutual fear, restore the medicine of cooperation and authentic relationship, dream and create beauty.

Divinations |
Diviners stand in a liminal space in community. From this space between knowing and unknowing - as we come into another skin of knowing - our task is to bring back messages of healing, wholeness, love, and hope for our communities. This is what I seek as I offer divinations to groups or communities.
