i've returned...

somewhere between last night and this morning, i came back.

lately, i'm aware of these gray spells...spontaneous underworld excursions that twist me and turn me until i'm nearly exhausted.

and then i come back.

suddenly the dreams and whispers make sense. i don't feel like i'm walking in a haze or trying to see through a barely transparent veil.

i'm joyful, comforted, and comforting.
prayers are answered.

it all seems to be related to the moon...when it goes dark, so do i. as it waxes, i become more empowered. by the full moon, i'm wide-eyed and captivated, in love with the world.

i suppose i should have expected a month with two eclipses and two new moons to be a rollercoaster ride.

i'm learning. slowly, but i'm learning.

i must have missed something... i'm still on the solar eclipse & trying 2 manifest myself into some more money (more than i need - because, thank GODDESS, i'm getting what i need, but BOOM! it vanishes within minutes and all i'm doing is paying bills!) and trying 2 get some space squeaked out in this move.. lord, make space for more money in ALL my accounts (just realising NOW that i dreamt that i should open up another bank account 2 save for next year's travel) and BLESS u 4 leading me here 2 that memory!!

and yes, akara is directly related 2 acaraje. and hushpuppies. aint that benevolent (as miss myra would say)? all thru the world, thru the middle passage and what have u, we still had little pieces of fried bread that followed us from continent 2 continent... over there and in brasil, it was black eyed peas that made our 'massa' (meal). down south it was corn that made our meal... the ethiopian ones are the ones that most resemble the brasilian ones with that HOT ass pepper they use. i have no idea, but it MUST be the twin sister to brasil's malagueta pepper...

and now that i'm hungry...
