NEW MOON IN SCORPIO ♏️
Today the moon sinks into the deepest waters of Scorpio, opening a portal for rebirth, shadow-work, and spiritual transformation. This lunation asks you to release old skins, face your truth without fear, and reclaim your personal power.

Scorpio energy is about:
🔮 Shedding emotional baggage
🔥 Releasing soul-ties + energetic cords
🦂 Shadow integration & ancestral healing
💰 Magnetic attraction + manifesting from your depths
🌑 Rebirth through intention & ritual

Use this New Moon to:
✨ Write down what you’re releasing—burn it or bury it.
✨ Take a cleansing bath with basil, rosemary, and Florida Water.
✨ Light a black candle dressed with protection or banishing oil.
✨ Sit with your shadow, ask what it needs, and listen.
✨ Call your power back from every place you lost it.

Scorpio says: Go deep, or don’t go at all.
This is the moon of uncovering truths, strengthening intuition, and setting intentions that change your life from the inside out.

May this moon unveil what needs healing and open the road to your transformation.

So I had to answer the call about this topic. Clarity and understanding is you need. Do you want to know your Òrìṣà now!? ゚viral

11/18/2025

So you found out your Head Òrìṣà… now what?
A lot of people stop at the excitement of learning who walks with them. But knowing your Head Òrìṣà is just the beginning of the journey — not the destination.

Here’s what comes after revelation:

✨ 1. Study their paths & temperament
Learn how they move, what they govern, their virtues, their taboos, and their stories. Understanding their character helps you understand your own. But importantly Òrìṣà is not astrology. Not all of Òrìṣà attributes reflects a person's behavior or life.

✨ 2. Align your lifestyle with their energy
Your Ori and your Òrìṣà work hand-in-hand. Once you know your Head, you can start adjusting how you pray, how you cleanse, how you work, and how you show up daily.

✨ 3. Strengthen your relationship with your ancestors
Your Egúngún came before any Òrìṣà. Honor them. Feed them. Talk to them. They are your first line of support as you walk this path.

✨ 4. Get proper guidance — not shortcuts
Connect with ethical priests who actually teach you, not just tell you what to do. Learning your Head Òrìṣà isn’t a green light for random rituals. It’s an invitation to guidance and growth.

✨ 5. Take your time
Everyone wants to jump straight into titles and shrines. Slow down. Build your foundation. Let your Ori and your ancestors guide your pace. Your journey is yours — not anyone else’s timeline.

✨ Knowing your Head Òrìṣà should anchor you, not rush you.
If you want to walk this path fully and with integrity, start with knowledge, discipline, and real connection.

Video coming soon.
Stay tuned.

High John is more than a root—it is a connection to African resilience, a reminder that no matter the bo***ge, the spirit cannot be broken. For enslaved people, John the conqueror represented hope, humor in hardship, and victory despite impossible odds. For us today, he remains a powerful ally for:

Overcoming obstacles

Attracting good fortune

Maintaining dignity and strength

✨ At Oja Aje Apothecary & Botanica, we keep High John the Conqueror root in stock for our community. It’s more than a curio—it’s a living link to our history, a protector, and a bringer of success. Come by and carry John with you.

✨ 11:11 Portal — November 11 ✨

Today isn’t just another day on the calendar — 11/11 is a powerful spiritual gateway for manifestation, alignment, and awakening. The number 11 is the Master Number of intuition, higher purpose, and divine connection. When doubled, it opens a portal — a mirror reminding you that your thoughts create your reality.

🕯️ Spiritually, 11:11 represents balance between the physical and spiritual realms — the moment when heaven and earth align to amplify your prayers, intentions, and manifestations. It’s a cosmic “reset button” — a call to realign with your true path, your ancestors, and your purpose.

🌿 What to Do on 11/11:

✨ Light a white or gold candle to open the energy of clarity and manifestation.
✨ Write 11 intentions for the next 11 months — keep them positive and present tense.
✨ Take a spiritual bath with herbs like basil, cinnamon, and lemongrass to cleanse old energy.
✨ Sit quietly at 11:11 AM or PM and visualize your highest timeline — see yourself already living it.
✨ Give gratitude to your ancestors and spirit guides for their guidance.

🌀 Affirmation:
“I am in divine alignment. My thoughts, words, and actions open the way for miracles to flow easily to me.”
