As we continue with our 2.0 MDTA Series on trigger management, we delve deeply into the wound of rage, its radiance and why it is time to release our resistance and flow with it.

Resilience is the ability to bounce back, get back up, the capacity to withstand or to recover quickly from difficulties. To that end, this dialogue between Great Mother of the Waters, Mami Wata, herself speaks to a priestess-medium, myself or maybe you...

“The Voice of Mami Wata: On Rage and Radiance”

Priestess:

Great Mother of Waters, we call upon you. We come trembling, carrying the wounds of daughters, mothers, and mothers’ mothers. Teach us: how do we hold your rage and radiance without drowning in it?

Mami Wata:

Child of earth and water, look into my mirror.

What you fear as rage is not madness — it is the surge of my tide.

What you call radiance is not decoration — it is the gleam of my scales.

Both are mine. Both are yours.

Priestess:

But Mother, when your waves rise too high, we are shattered. We call it trauma. We call it abandonment.

Mami Wata:

Yes.

When my waters are ignored, when my currents are dammed, when men and women alike pretend I am tame — I break through.

I drown fields, I pull ships under.

Not to destroy for pleasure, but to demand respect.

Rage is radiance denied.

Priestess:

So your rage is not against us, but against forgetting?

Mami Wata:

Against forgetting, yes.

Against lies that paint the mother as ever-gentle, when creation itself is fierce.

Against silence, when your bones remember my roar.

I am beauty and danger, womb and wave, caress and flood.

Priestess:

How then shall we honor you, that your rage becomes blessing, your radiance becomes guidance?

Mami Wata:

Bring me offerings: not only shells and rum, but honesty.

Say aloud your anger. Do not hide it in the child’s heart.

Dance it, sing it, wash it in my waters.

Then let it settle into still pools, where the moon shows you your reflection.

Priestess:

And for those who carry Mama Drama Trauma — the sting of mothers’ rage without their radiance?

Mami Wata:

Teach them my law: Rage is holy when it guards life. Radiance is holy when it gives life. Both must dance together.

When rage becomes curse, it is because radiance was silenced.

When radiance blinds, it is because rage was buried.

Restore the dance, and the wound will soften.

Priestess:

Great Mother of Waters, what last word do you leave us with?

Mami Wata:

Child, I am not far. I flow in your blood, I shine in your tears.

When you rage, rage as ocean — not as poison.

When you radiate, radiate as sun on water — not as fire without vessel.

Call me, and I will show you the tide that heals.

The tests, trials and tribulations of motherhood and childhood under patriarchy is seeded in womb envy, the envy men may feel towards a woman's role in nurturing and sustaining life.

Coined by Karen Horney, German psychoanalyst and early Freudian "apprentice" whose theories diverged significantly from Freud's, particularly concerning female psychology and the origins of neuroses. Freud argued that little girls suffer an inferiority complex for not having a penis. This theory became a bedrock of patriarchal psychology, reinforcing the idea that male anatomy (and by extension, male power) was the universal norm.

Freud did not address history — he projected a cultural bias into human development.

This is “science” under patriarchy. Today, we enter “spirituality” under matriarchy, the era when empaths, both male and female, ruled.

Trauma Bond Avoidance Can Be Traumatizing

Trauma bonding relies on codependence, “I don’t feel good, happy or healed unless you are good, happy or healed.”

To avoid this, we often avoid relationships altogether. Though extreme to others, for us its already difficult enough to distinguish between our feelings and others’ when dysregulated, and present chaos only muddies the waters even more.

We either suppress, rationalize or avoid addressing our unmet maternal needs because that is Mama and if she didn’t sufficiently do it, in fact, often did the opposite, and it is taboo to object or even examine this experience it produces duplicity or cognitive dissonance. Duplicity of feeling unloved and loved produces the cognitive dissonance of believing what we are conditioned to believe: we are loved existing within an opposing lived experience that proves we are not.

For empaths, this constant state of teetering emotions, threatens our mental, emotional and physical wellbeing until we begin to challenge and fully examine it.

Knowing the Difference Between Being Alone and Lonely Is Key

Trauma bonding is counterproductive to healing but, for those of us terrified of loneliness, feels like a lifeline. Here’s how to anchor the difference between trauma bonding and being a friend:

* Feeling like I need to share a similar experience or identify with you to feel safe with you.

Strong attachment between an abuser and the person experiencing abuse screams trauma bonding. While it isn’t the same thing as bonding with someone over shared or similar traumatic experiences, if your presence, or being there to listen is not enough, and the exchange drains you in any way, codependence is afoot and a boundary is needed.

* Stockholm syndrome is a psychological response where hostages or abuse victims develop positive feelings and loyalty towards their captors or abusers. This phenomenon, while rare, involves forming an emotional bond and even identifying with the aggressor's perspective.

Though a dynamic where someone develops positive feelings like sympathy or attachment towards an abuser differs from feeling connected to someone because they understand your trauma or because they've experienced something similar, if the connection is relied upon to be happy or feel good about yourself the connection is codependent.

* The narcissist empath relationship cycle often follows a cyclical pattern of attraction, idealization, devaluation, and eventual discard, or hoovering if the empath attempts to leave. This cycle is fueled by the empath's inherent desire to nurture and heal, and the narcissist's need for admiration and control.

We often attempt to avoid loneliness only to feel alone in trauma bonds caused by repeated cycles of devaluation, fear, and intermittent kindness or affection which our codependence confuses with healthy sharing of traumatic event details with someone who loves us.

* Emotional abuse is when someone repeatedly tries to make you feel bad, unloved or worthless. It includes insults and threats, restricting your freedom, embarrassing you in public and bullying often happening in MDT relationships (i.e. mother, daughter, sibling, friends, relatives, neighbors, coworkers, etc.).

Because emotional abuse is so alienating yet familiar, to avoid being alone, we form bonds characterized by feelings of loyalty and dependency despite mistreatment. As we grow weary of this kind of negative codependency, we seek bonds based on shared trauma and mutual vulnerability.

* An individual, often from childhood, has come to perceive abusive behaviors as normal or acceptable, despite the harmful impact is said to view abuse or abuse as a norm and to normalization it themselves.

This cycle highlights how the nervous system associate survival with the presence of the abuser making it hard to leave. This is not the same as feeling attached to someone after undergoing the same traumatic experience—as long as survival is not codependent.

[Opening Invocation]

Beloved daughters of the Great Mother…

This is the sound of your own blood remembering.

The rivers inside you, the salt of your tears, the pulse that ties you to every womb before yours… They are calling you back.

⸻

Last week in You Were Made for Matriarchy, the empath’s mother wound origin was demystified, and you were encouraged to focus on all the confirmations you are receiving in this age of chaos.

This week, we define how terms such as “chosen ones”, “timelines” and “bloodlines” to clarity why, where, what and how DNA strands relate to destiny timelines connecting us to the MamiIsis lineage, the origin of all matrilineal bloodlines.

* Bloodline and zodiac cycles

* Bloodline extinction

* Bloodline survival and reveal

* We live all cycles and timelines* body and soul

* We evolve through time (patrilineal) linear experience in form and space (matrilineal) DNA memory

* We each carry a dominant original bloodline signature throughout cycles (the one we default/return to for important evolutionary lessons, universal melanin)

Did you know matriarchy was central to the spiritual governance of pre-historical society? Before land ownership, militarization, statehood and centralized power, there were land rights, communal responsibility, spiritual states of individual and communal power ruled by empaths.

There’s nothing new under sun. We mastered “self love” care, focus, understanding, princess treatment and queen making. It was intuitive and was the norm for women, mothers and matriarchs who for the last 3,000 years have been short circuited by patriarchy— a second compared to the eons of matriarchy headed by priestess and prophetess.

Unearthing the Ancestral Mother

Imagine our First Mothers and the matriarchal societies they were born in, gave their lives to and perpetuated through their progeny.

* Different Mothering cultures and different matriarch traditions

* Who we were - mother wound empaths, the most ancient matriarch survivors

* Where we’ve been - suffering the mother wound

* Where we are - absorbing spiritual persistence / preparation for post chaos

* Where we’re going - ancestral mother awareness, unification / post chaos return to natural order era

* Prepare for post chaos return era to natural the natural order

When was the last time you took an inner journey to the feeling you had with women who loved and nurtured you the most? Those aunties, big sisters, grandmothers, or perhaps for you, it was a babysitter, neighbor or teacher who is long gone in form, and even memory. Though we may not have recognized them at the time, they saw all of who we were and would be the first to cry foul if anybody tried to change us.

Today, we journey to reconnect with them, their energy and lessons they taught us.

Let’s get ready to pay it forward in the coming post-chaos world!

You Are Not and Have Never Been Alone

Ever hear of the Tchamba?

Did you know there is a group of ancestral souls who oversee and protect descendants of enslaved Africans in America?

Did you know African Americans are direct descendants of these spirits with tribal connections making them not only a part of the African spiritual continuum, but central to it?

“The Tchamba spirits are the ghosts of forgotten ancestors— torn from their homelands, stripped of their names, languages, gods, and rituals, yet whose spiritual presence still lingers. Because of the trauma, resilience, and spiritual depth of their journey and the lessons it has to teach, they are calling out to be remembered, honored, and restored in our hearts.

This group of foundational black Americans, specifically derived from waves of African enslavement and exportation to the Americas —known as the New World— during the rise of patriarchy in pre-Greco-Roman Europe and Alkebulan now known as “Africa” —were direct descendants of the Middle Passage, and are not disconnected or lost, but carry in their veins Tchamba blood that remembers and deems them sacred.

Three Important Points about the Tchamba:

#1 - The Tchamba ancestors are crying out to be seen, not as property or history, but as powerful spirits worthy of the reverence and honor that facilitates AfAm reclamation of their stolen lineage. Veneration of Tchamba is not about dwelling on pain but transforming it into spiritual power and ancestral reconnection.

#2 - This is being done in present day Togo, Benin, Burkina Faso and Ghana where Tchama spirits were enslaved and sold into slavery by African lineages often within the same ethnic groups. The Tchamba are venerated, acknowledged, and appeased for reconnection with and healing of unacknowledged ancestors who suffered in bondage.

#3 - Restoring spiritual balance and generational healing begins by acknowledging the historical trauma of slavery that is embedded not just in the physical world, but in the spiritual realm. This breaks the spiritual taboos that caused AfAms to forget and deny the ancestors, the very support we need to empower true liberation.

This morning I woke up to part one of an intuitive hit: the Promise of America not looking so promising. However, this hit has three parts so hand on to your hats! Part two is to be patient because now that we have done all we can do: pray, vote and do our inner work to maintain peace—just stand, continue doing the inner work and watch. Watch what? Part 3: the promise will be kept. Victory for the Vice President.

I said what I said, or rather I am repeating what Great Mother said to me. Listen cause it is about to get deeper and more divine that we could have ever imagined.

Karma, as the saying goes, is what goes around comes around.

There are three types of karma. Mama Drama Trauma is all three. Mother wound empaths need disciplined, conscious awareness and conscientious action to heal.

This is not difficult considering the depth of sensitivity to ourselves, others and situations, we possess. However, the task of calling upon, summoning or conjuring these inner powers, is something we must learn.
