- With so much selling in the spiritual marketplace, it's important to know the difference when it comes certain important aspects of the spiritual path. So much of the ancient traditions have been trivialized and stripped down to marketable bite sizes. Be aware of what you are really getting when you are spending your money. Sacred spiritual initiations have been a way of ancient people for so long. It is steeped deeply in spiritual technology, wisdom, ritual and based on ancient wisdom.

Listen! Thank you for this!!!! I kept getting this word in my heart but nothing matched the definition of what I was feeling. Finally I was guided to you. 🙌🙌🙌🙏🙏🙏
I needed to hear this thank you! Your message confirmed some things I had been been feeling. There's been so many things popping up in the past year or two - especially online initiations - and I just feel like people are using the current events to get people to not question things. Some spiritual leaders who have presided over initiations in person in the past are starting to offer them online and claiming their concern for safety to be the reason. To me if this is true maybe just don't do them until you feel safe being around folks in person? But then that also leads me to question where a person's mentality is that they would allow their work to be shifted in such a way? At any rate I thank you again! Please continue to share your wisdom with us!
Thank you so much for your kind words, insight and encouragement!
Absolutely correct. Spread this work for folks just starting their own spiritual journey or are very curious
Thank you for your words of wisdom.
Initiation is a near death experience. Meditation, the means to this end once the advanced stage of trance is reached. This is a way of accessing the akashic record, and can take years of practice, like learning to play a musical instrument. A life of solitude and celibacy helps. A means of finding out anything that has occurred since the beginning of time. Much more advanced than Google, and much more accurate!
Thanks for sharing!
thank you so much for this video !!! i’m so tired of people trying to “educate” me but i realize everything they say they don’t even know they’re selves . thank you for this video and thank you for even making a channel to educate us ❤️ god bless you always ❤️
You’re very welcome! Thank you for taking your time to be here. Blessings returned ! 💗🙏🏾💗
Thank you for your truths young need older spiritual guides like you
Thank you sister.
Thank you very much for being so giving.
I appreciate you explaining this .
Thank you for this Auntie! Much respect to you for spreading true knowledge. I recently started my spiritual process and it's been very interesting. I can't seem to stay out of black clothes. Even when I wear other colors, I still end up in something black. I asked why and I keep hearing initiation. I wanted to learn more and I found you. I feel the black is symbolizing the death of my old way of thinking and old traditions, but you are right. My generation is doing all kinds of things that I can tell is out of order and it's unfortunate. I honor you as an Elder and I thank you once again.
I so appreciate your comment. I receive your kind words with deep gratitude. Thank you for sharing what's going on with you. I, too, feel very comfortable in black clothing. It is a power color and very comforting. However, depending on the stage and what's necessary to move forward, wearing as little black clothing can be helpful. Maybe you are hearing "initiation" because you are expanding your awareness and perhaps this is encouragement to embrace community that can support the transition. Sending you many blessings on your journey!✨🙏🏾✨
@@sacredmysteriesworldwide5810 thank you! Blessings to you as well! Do you have any suggestions on how I can find a community to help me through my transition?
Absolutely
Thank you so much for this info, I want to be initiated👍
What’s your take on spiritual initiation done by the spirit? I was guided by the spirit and did things that initiated me. I ended up in a P ward and remember feeling my ancestors at the end.
🙏
Beautiful spiritual woman!!! 😍
Thank you for your kindness!🥰
Well said elder 🌹
Thank you!💗
@@sacredmysteriesworldwide5810 🙏 yes ma'am 😊
The truth tfs your pearls of wisdom🔥🔥🔥
An initiation can be as long as six months
We need you mommaz
So, I have heard some speak on self initiation. Is this something different or, not a real initiation? I am in the process of ridding myself of the Eurocentric religious doctrine I was raised with. Also, love the video.
Initiation in a spiritual tradition is like a “birth”. You cannot birth yourself. Someone has to give birth to you. Anything else is just spiritual growth and attunement, which is not initiation.
I've always felt the initiation was done by the Spirit and not some organization. Can you explain the difference between initiation, born again, and Spiritual awakening?
Perhaps I'll do a video on those differences. Too much to go into in a post. However, I can tell you authentic age old initiations systems have been handed down divinely from spirit in its many forms such as the Orisha, Lwa, Ntru, etc. when they walked the earth along with humans. This wisdom was passed to those individuals who have been chosen by various means and methods or ordained to carry this wisdom and pass it down to the rest throughout the ages via initiation system. Having been initiated myself I can say that each and every step that is taken is deeply profound and drenched in high-level spiritual science. Takes many other initiated people to come together in community. Each person doing the many ceremonies holds the mysteries of their particular line... much like a specialty that is needed in order to give birth to the initiate's new life as an initiate. What we think we can garner from Spirit ourselves in what we think is initiation... we are fooling ourselves. The emissaries of the Creator are imbued with the divine mission and within that mission they are to assist us in attaining our divine destiny. Initiation is way more that sitting around praying, meditating and becoming one with nature and lighting some candles and getting some insight or "sign".
@@sacredmysteriesworldwide5810 so if a person experiences spirit totems like chess board, phoenix bird, wolves, etc that appear in waking life, experiences the double number phenomenon (444, 222, 33, etc), sees mandala in visions, having flashes of images for answers, ear tones, dreams of how one passed 2 nights in a row and it feeling real and vivid, before it being revealed, hearing voices in spiritual realm, gaining and understanding esoteric knowledge all of a sudden, then what would you call that?
@@slicksweet1 those are amazing and helpful experiences. Someone with these types of experiences should consider the assistance and guidance of a spiritual elder. However, they do not equate to being initiated into an ancient ancestral initiation system.
@@sacredmysteriesworldwide5810 I say initiation is done by the Spirit only, but thank you for taking time to answer me!
@@slicksweet1 I don't think the hundreds of years of tradition and ritual would have taken place in non western culture if initiation could be obtained through ones personal spiritual practices. I think there is a level of respect necessary when we ask questions about things we don't know about. And open mindedness. I don't think initiation means someone is more spiritual then anyone else. I think it's a whole different lane. I just don't want us to get ahead of ourselves. tread slowly so u can feel every step, that's what I'm learning to do. 💜
Hi, thank you! Was wondering if you think an initiation can start or happen through spirit guides rather than through people or certain traditions. I am certainly going through a series of tests, experiences and hardships that I believe will take me into the next level of my human experience with a newfound knowledge and appreciation. But it feels like it’s all bad right now. If I told you everything that had happened one thing after another after another it would be hard to believe!! I don’t know if it is spiritual oppression or an initiation of some kind but I am ready for it to be over. 😬 I could use some guidance from a real live human though because I also begin to feel I’m losing my mind at times.
What you may be experiencing is either events to further your spiritual growth and/or blockages-being out of alignment with your highest destiny. Regardless of which, lessons are always learned. Growth can happen. Often times people perceive life’s challenges as initiations. They also believe if a spirit comes and reveals insight or information that it is an initiation. In my viewpoint they are not the same. The path of spiritual growth that life hands is one thing whether it be facilitated by spirit guides, ancestors or angelic beings. All of us go through that. Initiation in and of itself is through a time-honored and tested spiritual tradition that is performed by elders to those who are either called or choose to be initiated. Elders must be involved in the initiation rite or else it is only a personal ceremony and nothing else.
If you are having a series of unfortunate events, you may need to seek divination to see what is the root cause/s. The diviner should be one who can also prescribe steps to clear things up and get you on the good path. I hope this helps. Blessings on your journey.🙏🏾💗🙏🏾
Can it be done through me in dream for someone el
Hello beautiful sister, am new to this but have been having this urge of knowing my past life, what's my purpose in this life time but haven't gotten anyone to guide me in this space
At what stage of spiritual journey are you able to download all my information of my past life, when this happens does it means your third eye has opened or it's not the case be patient with me am new to this
Can you get initiated to more than one ancient traditions does it mean more knowledge or you are good with one initiation. Thank you
Greetings! Thanks for your question. In my experience your past life is really not the focus in moving forward spirituality. That is why we don’t remember. It is this life that matters and understanding who you are and your purpose. Of course you can find out your past life from a past life regression therapist but it may or may not help you make sense of things now. My suggestion is to focus on self-discovery first. This is a way you can find your purpose. You can watch my video on “finding your spiritual path” which gives guidance on this. The 3rd eye is a tool for spiritual insight and elevation. It has nothing to do with knowing your past life. As far as initiation, you can get initiated in to more than one, but it is one you can become proficient in. Once you determine your “home” tradition, all other traditions you are involved with is done so in support of the home tradition.
Do you have any recommendations on where to get initiated or by who
It would be best to find a reputable Iyalosha/Babalosha in your area or located where you can easily travel to. Relationship building is key in the Orisha tradition. Selecting a godparent should be undertaken with discernment. That person will be your guide and elder that will make sure you get what you need. You can inbox me to see if I can connect you with someone on Facebook: Mignon Grayson or on Instagram @empressming
Do you do spiritual initiation
No I don't do initiations myself. I have received initiations.
People who are learning ancient traditions can they be as powerful & knowledgeable as people who are born with the gifts. Thank you sister
I’m not sure what you are asking. Everyone is born with gifts and has varying degrees of power no matter where you were born. Learning a tradition or culture from birth or later in life power has no relevance it’s devotion to the culture and how good a student you are.
The first thing she just said is not true!!!
