| I am a newly initiated priest of Yemaya Okute in the Lucumi/Santeria tradition. My father in ocha is Obatala Baba Acho. My ocha name is Omi L'ade, which means "Yemaya has given me a crown." Maferefun the Iyaworaje! I am also a loving wife, proprietor of Boveda Beads (Orisha rosaries, jewelry and more), podcaster of Radio Bastet - Vintage Belly Dance Music, struggling student doula with the CBI program, amateur rootworker and graduate of cat yronwode's Lucky Mojo Hoodoo Rootwork Course, ska/2-tone/beat generation devotee, future rose grower, MSTie, political lefty, mermaid freak-a-zoid, cat wrangler, book hoarder, offbeat movie lover, neophyte knitter barely past the scarf stage, and lapsed bellydance student. In spite of all this, I am frequently bored. What can I say - I'm flawed. |
