Papi Wata's Grotto Podcast

What's good y'all!!

Today, we will be discussing the Ezumezu (aka the Spiritual Team). I will be digging into what the Ezumezu is and how it correlates to our daily lives.

This episode is actually an episode from "The Papi Wata's Grotto Patreon", and is another taste for y'all so that y'all can see the Patreon vibes! I wanted to give y'all this episode because I can see the growth occurring for my audience, so it's time to take things a bit further.

As mentioned in the episode, this is the second to last episode for Season One of the podcast! Stay tuned for the next episode- the Season Finale. I'll see you all soon!

We are back for Part Two of my Angelology series!!

Today we are continuing our dive deep into "Angels", and will discuss the concept of Angels from the lense of the Abrahamic faith traditions and what Spirit says these beings REALLY are.

Last episode we looked at the different types or tiers of Angels that exist, and we looked at the cosmic and more primordial origins of Angels as well.

Be sure to listen to both episodes in this Angelology series and the previous episodes on "Demons" to get the full tea! And if you're really curious, be sure to check out the Patreon Extended Cut of the episode at the "Papi Wata's Grotto Patreon"!

It's my first episode post Spooky Szn '25, and we are going to get ANGELIC! How else are we supposed to cleanse out that spooky energy?!?

But in all seriousness, today we are going to dive deep into "Angels", and will discuss what they are cosmically, purpose, and the different types (or levels) that exist within this group of spirits.

As mentioned in my series on Demons, you can't really understand what a "Demon" is without understanding what an "Angel" is and vice versa, so that's why we have today's episode.

Similarly to my Demonology episodes, my Angelology episodes will be broke into 2 parts. This first part focuses on the cosmic origins of "Angels" and the second part solely focuses on the concept of Angels from the Abrahamic faith traditions.

Be sure to listen to both episodes and the previous episodes on "Demons" to get the full tea! And if you're really curious, be sure to check out the Patreon Extended Cut of the episode at the "Papi Wata's Grotto Patreon"!

IT'S SPOOKY SZN!!!!!

For this year's spooky season, I'm deciding to be a bit more festive and to have a theme for the "Papi Wata's Grotto Podcast (and Patreon), and this year's theme is (drum roll please)......"The Occult: Deconstructing The Dark".

Throughout this series, I will be discussing the dark side of spirituality and will be demystifying, decolonizing and shedding some much needed light on certain occult topics.

We are definitely definitely going to get *spicy* here and also a little bit controversial controversial and "taboo", but I wouldn't have it any other way tbh.

Today's episode marks the LAST episode for this year's Spooky Szn theme. It has been such a fun ride, and I'm so grateful for all of the participation thus far!

For today's episode we are going back to the realms of witchcraft and magic to discuss baneful magic- hexes and curses specifically. We will be breaking these concepts down, as I explain the differences between a hex and a curse, how to spot them and what can be done to break them.

I'm going to be tying all the concepts from this year's Spooky Szn together in this episode- so pay attention and read between the lines so you can see what is truly being said!

Regardless, this is an episode you WON'T want to miss, and of course if you want the full tea...you'll have to head on over to the "Papi Wata's Grotto Patreon" for that. In fact, for this episode the Patreon extended cut includes a DOUBLE FEATURE, and in that episode I will also be talking about the relationship between magic/witchcraft and social justice and liberation!

You most definitely definitely want to check that extended cut out because it is VERY relevant to the specific times we are currently in iykyk!

Again, big thanks to all that have participated thus far! Can't wait to see you for the next episode and of course for next year's Spooky Szn!

Speaking of controversy...today's episode is most definitely steeped in that. That's because this episode is all about demons, what they are, and how they affect us in our lives.

This expose on demons will be split into 2 parts, and this current episode is the second part in the series. This first IT'S SPOOKY SZN!!!!!

To kick off this season, we will be taking a look at the Igbo concept of Amosu (aka Witches). In this episode I will answer what an Amosu (witch) is, why a person is born one, what is the nature of witchcraft, and what is the relationship between Amosu and Dibia (spiritual doctors).

This is an episode you WON'T want to miss, and of course if you want the full tea...you'll have to head on over to the "Papi Wata's Grotto Patreon" for that.

This episode is the second part in my discussion about the Igbo concept of the Chi.

Last episode we discussed what the Chi was conceptually, how it manifests in our lives, and different ways to connect back to it and remain in alignment with it.

In this episode we will be going further and will be talking about the specific being/entity/energy that an individual's Chi can be. We will be discussing who we can *potentially* be outside of this current human experience.

So buckle up because because we are definitely getting metaphysical with this episode!

Today's episode has been a LONG TIME coming!! Like....how many times have I mentioned on this podcast that I would make an episode about the Chi....yeah, too many.

Well, at least the episode is finally here! Now, this is actually a Patreon lesson- I'm just deciding to share it here with y'all as well. For the full cut head to the "Papi Wata's Grotto Patreon".

In this episode, I'm going to break down the concept of Chi in Igbo spirituality and explain its connection to everything else in our lives. The Chi is a really foundational concept, so the information in this lesson is quite important!

But yeah, here's this episode. Stay tuned for the part 2 of this episode which will be coming soon! Again, for the full lesson head to the "Papi Wata's Grotto Patreon".

Calling all Black People, all the Children of the African Diaspora!!

We need to talk y'all...like REAL BAD.

Today's episode is going to be about breaking down the infamous "Diaspora Wars"- which I'm sure you've heard all about. In this episode I will be discussing the spirituality behind the "Wars", and will be giving some messages from Spirit about them as well.

This episode will NOT be an academic deep dive or a polished social critique of the relations between the Diaspora. We will primarily be getting metaphysical here.

DO note that a lot of the messages given by the Ancestors & Spirit were more on the "shadow" side of things, so do be prepared for that...it just is what it is.

But regardless, Black People just know that I LOVE use REAL BAD, which is why I'm putting this out.
