That is the central message pulsing through this web that’s spinning forth from her and that is being woven into, this confluence of sound and image through and across waves of various types (marine, sound, brain…) that, for now, is called Whale Whispering. She says; I’m singing to and with humpback whales in Bahia, Brazil, birthing songs to contribute to the mending of the shattered collective spirit of cultural perspective, simultaneously uplifting and educating audiences.

In this episode of Center Her Power, we look at witchcraft from a Black woman's perspective.  There are many ways for women to connect to their spiritual selves thereby marrying body and spirit so that they live In The Center Of Her Power.  For some Black women, working with herbs and intention (witchcraft) was a way of life passed down from grandmothers.  Witchcraft has been depicted most prominently based on European practices.  For Black women who are seeking to find ways to live In The Center of Their Power, Vodoun is one path to follow.  Whether Celtic or African, witches were feared and even killed for their mystical wisdom that was often used for healing the community.  It is a changing of perception that encourages Yvette Wyatt to walk boldly as, The MotownWitch.

Vodoun is a religion practiced by the Aja, Ewe, and Fon peoples of Benin, Togo, Ghana, and Nigeria.  It was brought to the America by Africans who were enslaved.  It is practiced in Louisiana in the US and other areas of the Black Diaspora where West Africans found themselves including Haiti.

About Our Guest

Yvette (The MotownWitch) is a lifelong Witch and Conjure Worker. She began seeing Spirits at an early age and grew up watching her grandmother and great-greatmother work various roots and herbs in Talladega, Alabama.  She is also baptized in Haitian Vodoun and is an Ifa devotee. Yvette owns a store in Detroit: The MotownWitch, 16844 Schaefer Hwy., Detroit, MI 48235 She also is the creator of The Detroit Hoodoo Festival (an annual event) The Detroit Witches Ball (an annual event) and The Real Black Witches of Detroit (a monthly woman's fellowship meeting).
