Bast, Love, Lust, and Magick

Imakhu Shekemet — Sun, 06 Jul 2008 23:34:30 GMT

In case you missed the initial broadcast about spring, Bast/Ostara (Easter), and love, here it is! Imakhu explains the difference between the Kemetic guardians Sekhmet (sacred lioness) and Bast (sacred cat), and how Bast exemplifies love, self love, mate relationships, family nurturing, creativity, renewal, and joy. She recommends healing stone, oil/incense to bring about the Bast transmutation energy. Imakhu also gives a brief, tactful talk about the misuse and abuse of "sexual magick" in the name of spirituality. Astrologer Samuel F. Reynolds gives insight into the vernal equinox and healing practices for renewal. Music is by award winning jazz saxophonist Alfonzo Blackwell, from his new CD, "Dance to This." www.alfonzoblackwell.com More info about Bast and seasonal cycles in Imakhu's book, THE COWRIE BLESSING BOOK: NU AFRAKAN WORDS OF WISDOM. www.truelivingwaters.org/Imakhus_Book.html

Elder Guidance vs. Self-Initiation

Imakhu Shekemet — Fri, 18 Jan 2008 06:47:38 GMT

Self-Initiations vs. Mentored Initiations. "I'm Self-Initiated. Now what?" Want to know the criteria for seeking a spiritual mentor? Are you considering "self-initiating?" Is self-initiation as valid as formal ceremonial initiation? Are you being reluctantly pressured into having a title for validation? Is title-seeking jealousy driving you to keep up with the JuJu Joneses? Perhaps you are already self-initiated through books, but seeking a personal elder teacher to take you to the higher levels. This podcast is just for you. Imakhu shares her wisdom as an elder teacher, but also from the perspective of the student. Podcast ends in a brief meditation.
