BLACK WOMEN... YOU ARE A GODDESS - YOU ARE A QUEEN!
MAY YOUR ACTIONS BE AS SUCH

In the Beginning was the Goddess
I've been restrained for thousands of years
Man tempted to bury me and kill my people
The time has now come for you to know me.
I will surface again for you. The female deity.
I am Earth Mother and Cosmic Mother.
All matter was brought forth by me.
I carry the seed of creation in my womb
THE RETURN OF THE GODDESS

SOME FEAR HER AND REFUSE TO ADMIT HER EXISTS
SOME ARE CHALLENGED BY HER
SLOWLY IT IS HAPPENING
WHAT IS GOING ON INSIDE WOMEN
WHICH IS CHANGING EVERY ASPECT
OF WOMEN'S THINKING AND LIVES
ALL THAT WE ASSUMED ABOUT OURSELVES
OUR VALUES, POLITICS, SEXUAL RELATIONS
OUR PLACE IN THE UNIVERSE
ARE NOW BEING CHALLENGED
BY THE NEW AWAKING
YEMAYA
West Afrikan Creation Goddess

Yemaya originated as a Yoruban river Goddess. The Nigerian rivers were formed from the fountains that sprang up when she first walked on land. Yemaya is the Mother who creates and sustains all the life on Earth. As Mama Watta she is creator of all sources of fresh water. Her nature is generous and nurturing but like the sea she has angry, violent aspects. The Afrikan diaspora spread Yemaya's worship to the New World, where she was syncretized with Mary.
