Happy 8/8/8, everyone!

Today is a powerful and auspicious day known as the Lion’s Gate Portal, where the stars align to bring us heightened energy and spiritual awakening. The significance of 8/8/8 is profound: the number 8 symbolizes infinity, balance, and abundance. August, being the 8th month, amplifies this transformative energy, making it a time of new beginnings and limitless potential.

During this cosmic event, the star Sirius aligns with the Sun in Leo, while Mars and Jupiter add their dynamic energies to the mix. This alignment opens a gateway to higher consciousness and deeper insights.

To harness the powerful energies of the Lion’s Gate Portal, here’s a quick ritual you can perform today:

Find a Quiet Space: Sit comfortably in a peaceful spot where you won’t be disturbed.

Set Your Intentions: Write down your intentions or goals for the coming months. Be specific and focus on what you truly desire.

Meditate: Close your eyes and take deep, calming breaths.

Visualize a golden light surrounding you, filling you with positive energy and infinite possibilities.

Connect with the Stars: Imagine a beam of light connecting you to Sirius, Mars, and Jupiter. Feel their energies merging with yours, empowering and guiding you.

Gratitude: End your ritual by expressing gratitude for the blessings in your life and the opportunities that are coming your way.

Embrace the magic of today and let the Lion’s Gate Portal fill your life with abundance, clarity, and divine wisdom.

Wellness Journey – 6 MOnths

CELEBRATION POST (This is long)

On the morning of September 14, 2023, I was scheduled to take a flight to Atlanta, GA to complete the second leg of my Tantric Shaman Practitioner initiation. I was very excited because we had been studying for the past six months.

On this particular occasion, my dad would not be taking me to the airport (as per usual), so I enlisted my mom. Prior to the trip, I told my mom that I had been having some trouble breathing especially when I was in Indianapolis vending at the Delta convention with AAPF (the reality is that I had been having trouble well before that but it was more pronounced in Indy). Leading up to the trip my mom had been voicing concern and that she wanted me to see a doctor so I booked an appointment but the appointment was not until I returned from GA.

On the morning of my flight, I was completely exhausted and contemplated not going on the trip because I was not feeling my best. I had ordered a wheelchair service to assist me at the gate but never made it to my flight. After expressing to my mom that I had considered not going on the trip, she lamented that she wanted me to cancel the trip and go to the doctor. I had assured her that I had an appointment upon my return but she was adamant that I get to a doctor as she said it – TO-DAY! Knowing that I did not want to cause my mom any additional grief, I called my facilitator and told her that I was going to the doctor to have my breathing checked and that I would try to fly out the next day.

Little did I know that when I arrived at Emergency Room at the UM-Capital Region Hospital that I would not leave for another 12 days – September 26, 2023. Today marks 6 months since I was discharged from the hospital and life has changed for the better.

Can I breathe better? Yes

Can I lift my legs without a struggle? Yes

Has the edema in my legs and feet gone done significantly? Yes

Is my heart functioning well? Yes

When I entered the hospital, I was 445.6 pounds. Today, I am hovering between 324 – 328 lbs. And while i am not at my goal, I am grateful to be here…I am grateful for what I have accomplished…and the journey continues.

My hummingbird, Antoinette (The practitioners in my cohort named ourselves Hummingbird Hologram after our first emergence), reminded me shamans are normally initiated after going through a major ordeal in their lives especially a health challenge. So while I did not get to complete the emergence physically – spiritually and energetically I had arrived. So Madame Turquoise is not just a name, it is indicative of the butterfly that emerged from the cocoon or more specific to me – the Peacock has spread her wings.

Thank you for everyone who has poured into me, loved me and cheered for me along the way. These updates are for you. It is my way to be accountable to you (and myself).

I will see you at the year mark and I hope to be healthier and happier than I am today.

30 Years Since High School…Wow!

30 Years Since High School…Wow!

by | Apr 4, 2023 | Celebrating Milestones, Lifestyle, Uncategorized

This year marks a monumental milestone—the Suitland High School Class of 1993 is celebrating its 30th reunion! It feels surreal, doesn’t it? Thirty years since we walked those halls, laughed in those classrooms, and shared moments that shaped who we are today. Looking back, it’s clear that we truly were the BEST CLASS to EVER DO THE THANG. I am beyond honored to be a part of this legendary class, forever connected not only to our fellow classmates but also to the school and all the incredible classes that were part of that era.

Suitland High School gave us more than just an education—it gave us lifelong memories, friendships, and a community that still resonates with us all these years later. For me, and I’m sure many of you, the spirit of those times feels just as alive today as it did back then. There was a special energy in the air during our time at Suitland, a unique vibe that made our class stand out. We were bold, confident, and unapologetically ourselves. And of course, how could we forget the class color orange? It was vibrant, full of life, and a perfect representation of who we were—bright, passionate, and always making a statement.

And then there was our class song, “I’m A 93 Senior,” set to the unforgettable tune of Arrested Development’s “People Everyday.” Every time I hear that beat drop, I’m instantly transported back to senior year, where the excitement of being on the cusp of adulthood mixed with the bittersweet realization that we were leaving high school behind. That song was more than just a senior anthem; it was our collective heartbeat, a rhythm that carried us through that final year and beyond. It was the perfect soundtrack for a class that was as dynamic and diverse as we were.

As we approach this 30-year mark, it’s not just about reflecting on the past but also about celebrating the journey we’ve all been on since we left those high school days behind. Some of us have traveled far and wide, pursued different careers, started families, or found new passions. But no matter where life has taken us, the bond we share as members of the Suitland Class of 1993 remains unbreakable.

So here’s to Suitland Class of 1993, to our unforgettable memories, our bold color, our iconic class song, and to all the experiences that have brought us to this moment. Let’s celebrate 30 years of friendship, growth, and community. We were, are, and will always be the best to ever do it!
