the Womb in Violence




Womb is treated incorrectly in Western life. What is placed in front of the vagina is as important as who is placed within Her. She is Sacred Space. Know this and live, know this and change the environment. Around you within is the change we crave because men know not what to do. The hint of scripture or sacred text as the basis for change in this society turns millions of Euro-Americans off for one reason, and this is significant because the subject is ancestry.

Their ancestry finds their repulsion in the substance of Creation by God! Divorced from heart, self, others and soul their path of thought and belief has led the entire world downward into self destruction. Without understanding of how we, as a species, are consuming ourselves for comfort, convenience and the accumulation of wealth and dominance have come to this place is ignorance, deliberate ignorance. You have to go to the roots to understand what the next right step is to be considered and made! This is the direction whites fear within. - Gregory E. Woods, Keeper of Stories 3/12/18

Think Without Words.


the 3rd eye needs attention to the detail of its purpose. Without it fools reign.
- Dawn Wolf, Keeper of Stories 



"Poetry, art and space place a woman into a sensitive place quiet and alone in the sense of being a part of something indispensable to a man's life and knowing. If he is ever to attain that state of being it will be through initiation into the mysteries in a woman's way, or by the Elder's!"

In the teachings during initiation into manhood this concept becomes more than an idea. It becomes a birthing!

Rare it is, but initiations release the spirits of men and women from the bondage of modern concepts of life that detach them from the Earth, our Mother, and from the fundamental understandings of the primary energies of Creation!"

Subtle energies flow. . .




Leslie Mann oozes with sensual fragrance in a lady like and playful way you wonder if she is accessible, or her accessibility is akin to the essence of being feminine! Boys need to understand this concept to become better men. - Dawn Wolf, Keeper of Stories 3/7/18

IN the suggestion of a walk...




Ass without saying is alluring, especially an African woman's. It is the walk. The walk is important to perception because the way a woman moves coincides with her essence. A boy should know this, a man should teach boys this! - Dawn Wolf, Keeper of Stories

Gangsta Chicks!


Gangsta chicks posing for Roland Dawson's camera. 


Women in the 'Game' are invaluable studying why things have fallen apart in the development from adolescence to adulthood. Casting the divinity of security within the Divine Femininity for the rude, crude corruption of low level masculinity aside has created inexplicable crimes men dare not do! 

The most recent event national news is talking about and horrified by occurred in Chicago, Illinois, the first week of September 2017. A 36 year old Black woman, from the feel of jealousy, got a man to rape her romantic competition while the much younger woman was unconscious; filmed it, and posted it on Snap Chat. The victim found out she'd been raped seeing the film on her Snap Chat page.  
Crude masculinity exchanged for access to the gangsta life submits women's bodies to sexual subjugation in ways that would get the men locked up; but these women don't care! They take it like a champ, and submit to their gang rapes, and arise dripping with men's semen, and assume command of the beast birthed within. How does any authority fight this force? It is a vicious comparison but one should take the look, and plunge into thinking about the 'whys' of Arab women, who strap bombs to their bodes, to kill American soldiers in their war torn countries, while pregnant!

Women in the 'Game' are invaluable studying why things have fallen apart in the development from adolescence to adulthood. Casting the divinity of security within the Divine Femininity for the rude, crude corruption of low level masculinity aside has created inexplicable crimes men dare not do! Capturing a glimpse of it in this photograph toys with social responsibilities Elders, we don't have enough of, have developing through initiation of children into adults. Initiation is no longer part of the equations of developing children along the lines of who they are, and what their spirits need to grow into their authentic selves. Instead, we rely on modalities created by a people, whose inability to develop their own has merged with our brokenness developed in our relationship with them!

It is a lot to say, and there is more; but I revisit your photos, and they stir serious thoughts. I can't image you not being a serious man. Your serious work is powerfully capturing the elements of a people in need of self-reflection to move on to the next right step! - Gregory E. Woods, Keeper of Stories 9/6/17

the things Breath talks about....



"Bathing in the out of doors. Is this lust she is inspiring, or divinity she exudes?" - Gregory E. Woods (Dawn Wolf), Keeper of Stories [June 02, 2017]

"Is this lust?" is such a fundamental question a boy needs have an Elder ask of him before and during his initiation into manhood. Sadly, not enough boys are initiated into manhood in Western societies. For that women pay a heavy price and grandparents have predictable outcomes to look forward to in their generations to come! - Gregory E. Woods, Keeper of Stories [June 2, 2017]

FIGHT OF OUR GENERATIONS!



Yvonne DeCarlo, aka Lily Munster from The Munsters.



What Colored or white boy didn't have a thing for Lily Munster on the old show, The Adams Family in the 1960's? She was fine, sexy in a way outside of what a boy would understand but would feel and translate as something else in his fantasy. But, outside of those shared moments when TV shows were on back in those days the way we watched television as a collective at the same time on the same channels the race wars, and the blood sports of whites on Colored peoples raged on. Whites trying to justify themselves was a shameful display of emotions to make up for the justifications of racial superiority whites said to themselves and each other. Whites didn't see it that way, nor could they ever grasp how absurd they looked and sounded. They just saw and relished the terror they inspired and instilled.

It is true to this day, but outside of that whites like to believe they are distant from their recent past which has not rectified itself, or overcome any obstacle they created to make their way to bring peace to fellow citizen's, or thought of how to see the absurdity of their claims of supremacy, of right, of freedom. In their reluctance they place their trust in what cannot work because anything or anybody that works against the common good cannot create trust, build communities, or fortify what or who needs the fort. So, what did white folks do in their logic? They put Trump in office who is their mirror they cannot use properly to see themselves.


1964- The owner of the Monson Motel pours acid in the swimming pool to force the black children out who attempted to integrate the pool. This is the same hotel that denied entry to Martin Luther King Jr that same year. It became an important location in the St. Augustine Movement, which is a major part of the Civil Rights movement in the 60’s.

2016 - Presidential hopeful Donald Trump gives white Americans hope in their dream to the exclusion of those they despise. What he does is pour illusion upon the truths, and drove the thinking class away from the real dynamic that could expand upon the good work of President Obama, and past presidents, and capitalize upon the brilliance of President Obama's principals, and the genius of the work he did manage to get done that was genius.


Unable to see far all stock was placed in undermining the country to undermine a Black president to be able to say, "I told you so. Nothing he did worked." Where truth fits in is of no consequence. Facts have no place or voice in a thinking process supported by the "scientific evidence" of white's superiority over others. In other words, Donald Trump is going to make American Great again! This leaves the many in society to think, "OK. What do I do, and how do I participate?" In Black America and Indian country we know better than that to entertain that misconception. We know what making American great means. We have the truth of it. We all have ancestors killed to make American great!

First of all, thinking is not the bane of civilization. It is the crust of the pie. Many American citizens need to separate their lives from spectating and get involved in what matters as aggressive participants. I know the success of waging war on Iraq, in large part, was dependent upon the slogan: "Let's Not Have Another Vietnam!" What that meant was kept vague. To the uniformed and the average American (oh, am I being redundant?) that meant no more scrutiny of conscience, and history or the facts coming into focus with the question: "Why did we go to war in Vietnam?"

But, that aside I want to probe into the deepest problem.


The athletic ability of sex is not the texture or tenor of sexuality imbued with sacred powers. How this fundamental truth escapes most is because we have been totally seeped into the essence of what white people come from as evidenced by the Greek's sexual depravity and the well documented depravity of the European exhibited with ease in their abilities to subjugate. Black Americans need to cleanse themselves of the illusions forced on us in a brutal, systematic and consistent way during their occupation by slavery and murder.

I am charging Black Americans to see what has been in our faces the entire duration of our relationship with whites: the order of importance of Greek thought. In this order, if you reexamine what we learned in school man on boy was the ideal of love, and proper sexual relations. The love between women and men was non-existent meaning: romantic love between men and women was not their ideal. By their own words, their own philosophers, like Plato, women were for procreation, marriage with a woman was an economic tie.

They had to have children. How else could they have sex and enjoy it without children? The Greek rules of man on boys had its rules and had its name, which I cannot remember at present. What I do remember with clarity over the span of my lifetime is the vague references to sexual depravity inherent within white men's humor, and the saying white men said amongst themselves during the torture and hanging of Colored men.

"A man ain't a man 'til he's had a nigger!" They sodomized Black men during the torture or after they killed them, however they killed them.

This dynamic is coming out with force in the decades since Gay Activists laid down in writing their agenda point by point. One of their chief insistences is the freedom to have sex with whomever and whatever they want. Children are not safe in this dynamic; not safe by any stretch of the imagination. So, the question goes to Black men and Red men: who will protect the innocent?

Within the deepest problem in the Black community is the feminization of boys and men. The horrors of what that means flies into the 'righteous' fervor of the Gay activist movement passing themselves off as a benevolent force and a practical lifestyle with logical retorts to any opponents. Black Americans need to take this on as a matter of life and death, not only for our sakes, and our children's sake, but for Africans living at home in their countries like Uganda, Zimbabwe, South Africa, and so on. Why? Because in African nations the problem is deep and a horror story of unprecedented proportions! Black Americans need to school Africans at home because we've been through what they are experiencing now! Our knowledge is their salvation!

We need to unlearn a great deal and the real men, the alpha men of the darker hue need to come out in their strength and clarity because without our dynamic force the white agenda will grow even more powerful and Black America will be no more than a part of a centuries long cultural phenomenon of sexual depravity that Greek culture is and is the core of the American whites. More and more children in general will be taken from their parents into the sex trade, and cannibalism in some quarters; death after sex in other quarters of the world-at-large.

Our ancients have seen this from the beginning and never been proven wrong. Pain and deep suffering and the surgical removal of spirit, spirit powers connected to African cultures, and dark spirituality the whites performed on us changed us into vessels for semen, rape, and degradation never seen at the scale it is today compared to our yesterday with the white people. There is no time to find and save the 'good' white people. That has never worked. It is time to study the Black Africans who have successfully defeated white powers. It is a question of life and death this one thing.

If the presidency of Donald Trump means anything it means our Elders need take our boys and train and initiate them properly and to make our men not lost, men. Men are our protectors. Without the protectors no one is safe. Simple math. It is simple math and the hard work of unlearning, and the even harder work of facing the whites with power with these truths in the name of being men, and protectors and warriors at the deepest level protecting our women, our children and communities with the knowledge that killing, if necessary, and taking back what was taken is our first priority!

Book. Question. Did Africans cultivate culture in Europe.


"Africans have been historically portrayed as savages to support European colonialism and missionary agendas to exploit African natural resources. Were the ancient Egyptians black? Did Egyptian explorers land in Greece some 4,000 years ago? Did they plant colonies, establish royal houses, and bring civilization to Europe’s savage tribes? Did the secret rites of their temple cults resurface among the Knights Templar and Freemasons?" - anon

What the Womb Requires



Lady as her mysterious self






 
Temptation is either dark or light substances streaming through one's veins.

"If this woman spoke to my manhood, or my pride would my reply come from a sense of responsibility or the sweet weakness of surrender?" is a fundamental question to probe the spirit of a man and gauge the shields of a man for strength and weaknesses.

Shields are important to a warrior. How they are used to taste the waters of women's sexual powers is the spiritual nature of attraction and impeccability. The underside of manhood is not only dark and mysterious in lust, but a thrust into the shadows of what is not known by men who were never initiated by men who were the Elders from boy to manhood in the deepest sense of being.

This is all hard to grasp, but essential to know. - Gregory E. Woods, Keeper of Stories 6.14.16



Photoshopped women are not telling women's stories truthfully. It is a technique opposed to authenticity. Women not objecting to minimization are telling men what many men adore: submission to an ideal not for a woman's well being! - Dawn Wolf, Keeper of Stories (2016)

POWER BEFORE AUTHORITY



Grandfather told me this, People think I became a healer overnight, but what they do not know is the suffering and pain one must endure on this lonely road.-Gianni Crow 4.9.17




Eric Rick Darby 's words: "One must go through diversity to strip away what does not serve them and break open your heart so you may heal and become the healer...
All my relations....
May you be blessed..."
 




First Nation man. artist unknown.


True Power

There is much confusion by many on what power truly is. Grandson remember the words that I am going to speak to you, and teach them to the next generation.

Many believe that power can be bought, sold, or traded. Many believe that being powerful is to be the strongest in number, or the greatest warrior. Some believe that being powerful is being the leader of others, or to have influence over others wills and beliefs.

True power is all around us, yet many do not recognize, or honor it. Power is held within the brilliance of grandfather sun, whose light shines endlessly. Power is within grandmother moon who influences the cycles of the ocean, all females, and the fertility of mother earth. It is the whispering mystery of a gentle breeze. The crashing sounds of the thunder beings as they create rain. It is the remembering and honoring of all our relations, and walking the red road.

True power is the heartbeat that connects all of us on mother earth past, present, and future. It is found in our prayers, visions, and in the dreamtime. These are the true powers that many men choose not to speak of.

Qui est vous? Who are you?



delicate beauty of a red haired woman in soft light.



"A people without the knowledge of their past, origin and culture are like a tree with no roots." are the words from an Irish person who places emphasis upon being Republican and proud. It is a universal message, a universal truth, a statement logic would decree as a norm. But, knowing who one is is not as common as it once was in older times.

Across the landscape of cultures there were dreams and from the dreams came visions and the visions sought consciously were the simple return to what we knew coming into this world. Vision quests in the traditions that sought them are a returning to a place of knowing from a place one forgot themselves in the social context of their people.


"Who are your people?" is a question my father would ask of people. It is an old question, an important one that is a non-intrusive way of connecting relationships. Without the guide post the griot in West African cultures, and the historian in modern Europe and the United States or the recollections of the storytelling responsibilities held by particular family members so charged with this responsibility families and individuals would not have access to their spiritual and physical lineages.


Popular in American society are the cults of disenfranchised young people without well structured foundations floundering about waving banners supporting what is momentarily trending online. Groundless they express themselves pitifully, from an Elder's view, as Suicide Girls, Gothic chicks, occultists, lesbians, atheists, or join motorcycle 'clubs' heavily influenced by the moodiness of Jimi Dean. I could go on with the examples, but if you are a citizen of most countries you get the gist of my observation.


Older women are increasingly becoming less powerful seeking ways to remain younger and essential outside of the context of the depth of middle age and the powers inherent within the maturing process meant for women. It is a sad state of being. If women are retarding their maturation process towards the Old Wise Woman status, and men are stunting their growth through addictions and incarceration what hope do young people have of ascension into the higher realms of being? Further exploring this tenet of our national ideology what hope has the nation? The level of maturity and the depth of commitment to the higher purpose of serving define and secure the status of being a global force upon the Earth. The tired methodology that served the white man's quest to dominate the world today has the reverse effect upon consciousness.


Unaware of the higher realms of being and the consequences of evil white Americans are pushing an agenda inscribed in death sentences, and death knolls are taking the place of songs of deliverance. In the fear-based quest to remain atop of the world men like Donald Trump are feeding off of the bowels of their being. Feared as a white man, a rich white man many Black Americans are poised to vote for him. So deeply is the devotion to self-inflicted wounds, and submission to dark energies millions across the nation are voting against their best interests. They aren't thinking. They are not strong enough to see into the deep, and they are afraid of not being part of the group that appears stronger than any other upon the face of the Earth.

"Touching a woman and knowing how to touch her without touching her is a gift and an art form to be learned by unlearning. So subtle an art form it escapes the crude, the pretentious and the players. It is a language of the spirit. In the Warrior teachings, it is the difficult part of the teachings that leads the killer away from the killing into the healing the Womb is taught to the uninitiated. These are my words." - Gregory E. Woods, Keeper of Stories 9.7.14

Older Women: a call to.



Vapid look by danial gowns

April 16, 2013

 

There is that fashionable look that says nothing many ill-formed minds, and underdeveloped spirits believe show sophistication, but it is simply aloofness and aloofness is a defense. If one does not have substance developed parallel to who they are pretense is all that shows up. In time what isn't there and is there will become a source of embarrassment, or a thoughtful resource.
In light of that story who is going to do better by these young women? We are supposed to be a Christian nation. The Bible, in Paul's letters, admonishes older women to develop the young women. The Jewish tradition had planned development for their young and in the long run the nation was better for it. So is the tradition of initiation void because of fashion, or church tradition which condemned initiation as wrong and of the devil? - Gregory E. Woods, Keeper of Stories 10.2.15

WOMEN as Commodities???





Woman fucking is how women are often gauged in terms of value.  It is a difficult responsibility to address this subject matter as a man charged with his own sexual energies. To wade through desire and wisdom, restraint and understanding is not the easiest thing to do, but necessary for the boys around us needing to be tutored and mentored. Boys need to see these strengths in the men around them. Hopefully, initiation will stand in the gap of basic understandings of and about women. Initiation should broaden the view and perception of women in men's lives. At the least, initiation ceremonies will usher maturity and restraint into boys and men's spirits, and help resolve some of the conflicts women struggle through in their years of being a promise to a man, or sexually available, desirable and mothering. These four attributes bait men with their appeal to the spirit and the imagination of men. How we discipline ourselves (men) is one of the determinable factors of character and integrity. It ain't easy. But, it is necessary to become a man. - Gregory E. Woods, Keeper of Stories 7.12.14

Blood Story & Motherhood



The most random menstrual story ever..lol


 So I was walking in the co-op health food store looking for chlorella tablets for a liver cleanse and I as I waited for the sales person to finish talking to a very young girl and her sheepish looking father, I noticed they had the Diva Cup in their hand. The whole scene was rather awkward, the sales person, the teenager and the dad. lol So I bust in on the conversation since I was hovering and said, "I'm just looking for some chlorella tablets, but I use the Diva Cup. Do you have questions?"


So a 30 min. conversation began about tampons, pads and the menstrual cup. The whole time we were talking, the girl (who was 14 by the way) had one of those funny water cups in her hand (you know the kind that looks like a sno cone that you get out of a water cooler) and I asked her to let me use it to show her how to put it in. LOL It was at that point the father walked to another aisle. LMAO
Seriously I can't begin to convey the depth of this conversation without writing a book. But I can say I was honored to guide this quiet shy young girl on her beautiful rite of passage into womanhood and influence her decision making to purchase her first diva cup. As I checked out her dad introduced himself to me and thanked me. I couldn't help but to think of the things dads do for their children and I got a little choked up. I then looked on my phone to confirm that the diva cup could be used while swimming and the young girl was so excited that it could be used that I invited her and her friends to my the pool in my building one day with her dad's permission of course. So then come to find out this young girl dances with a Indonesian dance company so they were astounded that I had been to Bali and now I got a invite to a Indonesian dance performance.


All week I have had the honor and pleasure to interact with young girls and it does not escape me that this is all a part of my divine healing surrounding motherhood. All I can' do is accept all the children who randomly adopt me and say THANK YOU....

PRACTICE 43: born to be guided

ELDER'S RESPONSIBILITY







ONE 

"I am always struck, and understanding of the way people strike out on their own to find their way to who they are. For some the answer to their why questions are elusive. Another group were guided by the insights and wisdom of their parents in such an understanding way the child became an adult without illusions standing around their why question. Childhood to adulthood should be an initiatory process of ceremonies and rituals, but Western society dismisses the tradition for the pitfalls of adolescence as a better alternative. 

Growing up is either easy or hard, but always in comparison to someone else it is harder or easier. What is most important in navigation is knowing your starting point and destination. A second consideration is a feel for the landscape if traveling by land, and an understanding of water if by sea, river, or ocean. The energies of the Earth, our Mother, and the Waters are both female energies, and as tradition would have it require the traveler to leave an offering to each spirit initially, and to proceed with less caution and more trust in the process of discovery. This is the best way to start any journey, and the truest form of one's destiny. If you ever wondered what destiny looks like it looks like it feels." - Gregory E. Woods, Keeper of Stories 1.15.14



TWO


"Predators look into young people's eyes and see a chance to prey upon innocence they remember being taken from them. Preyed upon themselves devotion to development for the sake of enhancing life is far removed from the crudeness of their need to subjugate human spirits. 

The predator is a devourer and knows how a child enters the world is dependent upon factors outside of his or her control. Hopefully, a young adult learned to fight from the inside out because the predator's work begins with the inner man. . ." - Gregory E. Woods 1.15.14



THREE

"Too often young people mistakenly believe the road to success is a solo excursion, at least for a while they do. Guided by a dream of self is a better compass." - Dawn Wolf, Keeper of Stories






FOUR


"There are four things at twenty years of age the body knows precious little about: the private things of divinity, the role of play in their development up to this point in life, the mysterious aspect of growth and potential, or how to consciously store up energies. Most important is the creation of power within the body. It is a spiritual skill deceptive in its nature because the Trickster has convinced many that sex appeal is a primary tool to advancement. The Trickster knows better.

The body is a body of knowledge that comes from and is reflective of a body of Earth knowledge and energies and is primarily a composition of universal principles bound and devoted to the creative process of creating new life by word. It is the word that creates life, and over existence is the mystery of living deep and in abundance. This body of knowledge is the appeal of sexual energies." - Gregory E. Woods 1.15.14

PRACTICE 38



April RameƩ wrote, 'Embark upon a personal journey. Each step decided by truth and joy. This is the way to manifest your dreams and grow beyond your limits.'



"Our young women who crave the direction of the aged, and their wisdom and the example of maturity from the women around them are all around us. Without Grandmother-Teachers they can became violent within the throes of their despair, and lash out. Western societies do not depend on the spiritual wealth of their women. These societies are corporations more than anything else, and their primary energy focus (the acquisition of things) gives women young enough to be bait a place in the scheme of things under the dictatorship of its patriarchy: property.

What happens to the old happened to the young. What the young experience needs to be heard. The stories translated by their Elders engaged in the assembly of power, the work of empowerment, and the love of life need to be with the young women, and the young men who are not prepared for them, or initiated into the mysterious role of their manhood…” - Gregory E. Woods, Keeper of Stories (Dawn Wolf)
