The stories around the fire were about the ancestors, my ancestors.How they came across Syberia, through the Baring Strait and went from cave to cave until they reached what is now the dessert of Wirikuta, Mexico. How they followed a blue deer and found a cactus at its feet. How this scared medicine taught them how to hunt properly,how to build homes, how to make art, and how to talk to spirit.
I share this with you today because my ancestors and my spirituality are the backbone of Xiriki Wellness.
Xiriki or Ririki is a family temple, a sacred dwelling pictured in the last photo by .poon.
Xiriki also means cave, our first dwellings.
Xiriki to me also represents the womb, our first cave and dwelling of our mothers.
Thank you for reading.
Happy New Moon in Ta**us.
May you all feel loved and held by the earth 🤲🏾✨
