Below are my current offerings, in collaboration with some of my deepest friends and co-conspirtaors in liberation. We are honored to be of service to you and your highest work.

A Sacred Ceremony for Ancestral remembrance, ritual, and collective healing.

Ancestral seat of the beloved

in collaboration w/ osun yemisi juliana luna

i take my seat

When we connect to our Ancestors, we connect directly to our own rooting. When we sit in the location of this power, we no longer operate our lives from the threads of longing and hunger that arise when Our Ancestors are missing from our spiritual practice and from our lives. 

Ancestral Seat of the Beloved is an in-person ceremony that enters us into Ancestral work: the practice of connecting with, honoring, and learning from one’s ancestors.

We will start our ceremony with teachings on the vital power of this work, offering perspectives through our own lineages:

Queen Gogo as a Sangoma Priestess of the Ubungoma path (Bantu-Zulu song, prayer, ritual, and shamanism), Luna as a Yoruba Priestess of Osun (Brazil/Nigeria).

We then enter ritual, where a collective invocation of our Ancestors will be performed as we receive their guidance, messages, gifts and medicine. To close this powerful time, we will share a meal together to nourish our bodies and integrate our experience.

Celebrating and bowing in deep gratitude for the work of asking us to face our own colonial minds, to own our own projections of expectation and resentment and distaste, to spiral back into belonging and counsel and grief-tending and unbecoming with our own ancestors, to see the hilarious spectacle of our own distortions.

[Our session] was a complete creative-energy reboot and provided revelations and healing so powerful it could have taken 30 years of talk-therapy to even begin to glimpse or approach the truths awaiting me in the space you created for us.

"[Queen Gogo Yemah's] work is a reservoir of glorious conviction. Its water is steady, flowing freely from within. And while you’re welcome to drink these gifts, frankly, neither presence nor applause are the aim of her offerings. [Her] work will work—whether you like it or not. Like all good medicines, its power is one part mystery, one part its hopefulness to heal.
