When black women tell stories of our people, something very magical and special occurs. Thank you for you ❤️
That’s very true lol I don’t even know why
I concur 100%, bro!!!
Truth 💛💛💛🌻
Our people or u meanf THE AFRICANS THEIR GODS!! BLACK LOVE TO CLAIM AFRICANS ANCENSTOR BUT HATE AFRICANSS JUST SAYING, THE ORISHAS ARE AFRICANSS
Especially one that’s is obviously of the latest generation and who knows what’s she speaks of salute sister ase
Sooooooo that’s why people dream of fish when someone they know is pregnant.... 💡
Hmmm....That makes a lot of sense. Funny also that most blacks know what it means when someone dreams of fish. I have asked my Anglo associates if they knew....clueless.
🤯 wow
My mind was blown with that comment 😊
Yemaya recently gave me this dream
its true I dreamed of fish when I was pregnant .
I'm so happy more of us are starting to find our way back
Big big world, but you got it baby.....💫
Me too ❤️
I really want to learn
@@ArielKnowsBetter me too!
Could u imagine how amazing that would be if the majority of us got back to our roots
The law of gender. Everything has both feminine and masculine energy. We must learn how to balance both to obtain abundance on this earth
Makes sense because I've always read/heard Olokun was a woman, but I think thats because of the way we understand gender, not because of what their force actually is. Olokun is probably just the divine balance of both masc and fem energies.
Montiniquë McEachern wow that really makes sense
Exactly
You need to read the the GREAT COSMIC MOTHER n you will find out that WOMEN'S were on the PLANET 1st..they could turn on themselves like OSHUN..so read that book..when the BROTHERS came about things went LEFT...as you can see what they did to the GREAT MOTHER TIAMAT...
@@thedarkgoddess5274 who is tiamat
I was going to name my baby Yemaya but he was a boy. We struggled with fertility with my second child after my husband had chemotherapy and I freaked about fish and one of the fish in my dream was blue and had a mermaid tale and she said "for my baby to have a baby she needs to clear her mind and drink the waters" ... I was pregnant that following week.
I wonder if that is where the superstition comes from
@@allthatsheiz I definitely think so.
Waters ?
That’s BEAUTIFUL
Drink what waters?
yemaya is so selfless and caring. she could’ve stayed with the africans in africa, but she decided to come with us, and guide our ancestors to the americas. 🥺
What part of Africa could she have stayed at?
She’s from this land
She was here. We were always here.
She is All the oceans. She is everywhere.
When you said yemaya went with her children through slavery I actually teared up. Like really started to cry from how selfless she is.
I feel this. I couldn’t physically cry out my pain but my heart literally broke when I heard that part and thought about it in my head
Right❗ She is definitely good at storytelling, holds my attention with noooooo problem.
Me too!
When I was deep into Christianity. Yemaya or Yemoja came to me and asked why I left her. I told her I would never come back and she simply said "You will come back." Years later I found myself being trained in afro brazillian dance and the goddess or orisha being honored in the dance was Yemaya! I felt so at home dancing under Yemoja and even brought on the rain during the dance. It was beautiful. She appeared in our Pacific ocean as a celestial blue but brown. She was so gorgeous, glowy and feminine. She had a gorgeous crown, along with adornments . She also had a tail that was hidden under the water. The moon shined on her greatness
I always felt protected at the ocean. Drawn to it. It's where I feel the happiest. When I put my feet in the ocean I feel so much better. I live at the foot of Africa.
Do you ever feel guilty on living christianity behind? I feel this all the time now that im researching all this new spirituality. I want to know more and learn but feel so guilty about it 😞
Ohhhhh that's great
@@msazucena5225 you should do what your heart feels. I can't tell you what to feel. I'm happy to be enlightened because the scriptures were not enough for me. I need to continue to study as I have a lot more to uncover.
You saw her
Lovely vid, my godfather is priest of yemoja for 73 yrs, he taught me that yemoja lives both on land and sea and she has only been called yemaya for 400yrs and in african some houses burn red candlez for her due to the symbolism of the placenta, and she can come in the form of a bat which is the animal that traveled at night to follow the slave ships and a also as a crocodile. Efun are sacred to her because its made out of fish fossils and the white foam of her waters represents innocence and the dark blue represents her mystery. She is a protectress of the home, I can go on and on about omio yemoja but everyone has there stories , peace and bliss
May I ask wats your godfather name? Is it Ifatayo?
thank you so much explains the bats i say i. the dark blue night
❤
Thank you ❤️❤️
What does it mean if a bat flies into your home?
Hey yall I'm 16 and just wanna say, Yemaya (yemoja) is so incredible I've always felt like Yemaya walks with my family, especially the women, as she is known to be a protector. She is infinitely kind and i'm so grateful to her and all of the other Orishas for all they have done for me and my loved ones and for the world in general. I'm grateful to be accepted here and to be a part of this. Stay safe guys whatever you're going through I believe in you I know it's hard but you are strong!!! Ashe!
Yemaya has called out to me for many years! I love everything associated with the color turquoise, water and the ocean!
Love this. Lately I have been so attracted to the color teal and turquoise. Like in my room I’m looking and my curtains, blanket, pillow cases and my art have this color in it. and I’m always saying to my friends how much I love to sit by th lake in my city. I feel soooo at peace and calm and loved near water! I started tearing up! Starting to realize none of this is an accident 💙
Omg yall got me looking around at all my blue colored decore! Is this all her? I love blue, teal, and turquoise!
I love this..I feel like we're just hanging out and I'm listening to you share a story. That's how I like to learn :)
#FACTS #SAME 😍
She breaks down the Orishas easiest
This is why I subscribed 🧡🧡
Hey family. I’m 15 and I want to start studying my ancestors I know we come from greatness not just no slavery. I want to learn more about us. I’m also reading about voodoo and other religious stuff from Africa. No ma’m I am not practicing that stuff just want to educate myself about it. I wish all of you happiness❤️
I am excited for your Journey young sistar!
I loved your story of Yemaya...brought me to tears. Just beautiful...after swimming in the Dominican republic...she came to me in my dream.💦🧜🏾♀️
Yemaya dear mother of the waters.(river's,ocean's) The moon restore her power's the dance of the moon is yemaya dance. Yemaya (Calipso) check Calipso godes of oceans.
@Cookie Cäkë my Padrino taught me that in Africa she was also considered a river orisha, more so salt water rivers than the fresh ones. After the slave trade and during the diaspora thats when she also evolved to include the ocean as well as her children were spread across the seas
A woman who worked at my job called me Yemaya. At this point in my life I had no clue on who Yemaya. Once I looked Yemaya I realized how much she resonated with me
My mother’s family is African-Brazilian,in Brazil there are 2 religions that come from Yoruba culture:Umbanda and Candomblé,we call Yemaya Iemanjá,it was really interesting to hear your story!!
Ive only heard of Yemaya as a child but long forgot. Ive recently had an awakening and entered the craft n have now been practicing for less than a year. Rn is a hard time for me so I’ve been asking ancestors and deities for help. I kept having dreams of mermaids and the sea. Searched n the first thing to come up was her and just the presence I felt when I said her name. Chills 😳 I may not know much of African deities but I have so much respect and appreciation for the history, culture, and people behind it. It feels weird being called to her and I don’t wanna seem offensive but watching your video was a lot of help. Hopefully I know what I’m doing and that she guides me to do it right. Many blessings!🌛🌕🌜
This Yemaya hits home so deep. Maybe this is why my boys don’t eat anyseafood
Great Job Jazz😀💙 I so love Yemaya she was the first Deity I made an Altar to.Its funny cuz for weeks maybe Months Ive been hearing her name being called to me as if I was being guided to work with her then I finally said oh what the hell let me research her Ive never really known much about her before that when I researched her I was freaked out cuz she represents me so much Ima a Cancer and have an healing motherly energy.But one day While I was doing Postmates as my only income struggling chile lol I was led to just go to the Beach and gather shells and water sand and other stuff chile I was scared as hell of looking like a fool but as I walked to head towards the Beach area there were some people having a gathering at the picnic area and they were playing The Barons theme song "This is an Emergency" and I was like "ok Spirit I hear you and know im on the right track."That night I made more than I ever made I even got 3 orders at a time from one place which never happens.lol and all before I could get home to set the Altar up.I know this is lengthy but maybe someone needed to hear it.💙✨💙✨💙✨
That’s amazing, thank you for sharing Raven🌊
I did sis 🙏🏾 4 months later but thank you
Thank u im so new to this and just reading up on this finding my way back any few tips im hearing to set a altar and gather sea shells myself ?
Wow, thank you for this! I too am a cancer. I have been deeply drawn to water since I was a child. The thing about us is we're so selfless and kind but that yang energy will definitely come to surface when we have been pushed past our limits or our boundaries aren't respected.
😭😭 happy tears.
I'm nonbinary and African, and this content in this video really resonated with me. I'll have to look more into these two for sure!
My husband’s BD is 1/28 and mine 1/29 ♒️ We are the epitome of Yemeya and Olokun #balance ☯️ AND I discovered my ancestry is Mende Tribe of 🇸🇱 Yemeya been calling on me all my life! I just didn’t know because I was in the church for many years. She was always with me! 💙 thanks for this!
Hey👋🏾 fellow Aquarian 1/27 ♒️ #blessings
I have only heard the name once as a child, in the movie Love Jones. The name always stuck with me and lately it has been in my mind non-stop. This has really helped me, makes so much sense. I will definitely start researching more, she is calling me
Im a daughter of Oshun but I need to tap more into the Yemaya energy. Btw I love that "Chakra Khan" in the back💖
I was in the bathroom listening to the sink water run and I randomly whispered “Yemoja”, when I realized I knew that was one of the Orishas so I got on UA-cam and typed in the name, first thing I see is “yemoja- mother of all waters” ✨✨✨😁I love being spoken to !!! 🧿🌊🌊💧
Ying yang
Adam & eve.
Not even being disrespectful im amazed at the similarities im so glad I watched this. Thank you
16 years in Sept. as a priest of Yemaya.
Yes! Eso! this is the best story of Yemeya I have heard in awhile. For AfroLatinos the syncretic version of her through folk Catholicism is La virgen de San Juan del Valle for Yemeya and La Virgen Del Caridad for Oshun. In the Texas-Mexico region the shores of Boca Chica is where they meet and AfroLatino children of Yemeya and Oshun go cleanse.
I was born in the Republic of the Congo 🇨🇬. As a child, I encountered what people refer to as mermaids aka Mamiwatta.
I love 💕 your story. Thank you 🙏🏽🤩
Hi please share, what happened? ❤️
I was at Coney Island board walk one summer. I took a look out at the ocean. Had a vision. I was under the waves looking up. I saw a school of fish swimming in crystal blue waters under a rock formation. It's so beautiful. Got a natural high. This video reminds me of that golden experience. Thank you! 😀
I appreciate you including some your personality and contemporary references with the ancient and academic wisdom. Blessings
I’m so excited to see you here!!! I was thrilled to see you tossing cards with your boy The Baron. Yay!!!!!! ♥️
Yemaya is my mother it's amazing how you just described me at the end of this video to the T in fact I understand myself a lot better now having heard you say that. Thank you
Bro bro ! At like 6:50 when you brought up the Christianity thing I felt so validated. My brother has been making fun of me for trying to tell him about that ever since I took my world religions class and learned about the Yoruba religion a few years ago 🙇🏽♀️🌱
Girl I love your energy! Your story telling! Thank you for spreding the love and knowledge of the Orishas. Mutch love and blessings to you. Ache!
Love this! Can wait for the Olokun story. Keep sharing your knowledge!
I acknowledge the divinity in you. I am Thankful for Infinite Spirit leading me to you. I was thinking about my Orisha the other night hard. When I woke up I was repeating Yemaya. I didn’t go looking instead this video popped up on my page today. You make it make since. Mother of fish, my son is a Pisces. Having both divine feminine and masculine energies, being a single mother will do that to ya! Being a true Mother to all children is what I live by. I’m going to watch all your videos but I’m glad I came here first! Thank you.
Thank you so much for this amazing video! Learning about Yemaya and her energy has been interesting and I can’t wait to learn more about her and other Orishas! Much love! ❤️
Thank you for creating this video! I’ve been wanting to learn more about the Orishas and this video has helped so much. I’m on my own spiritual journey and have been wanting to connect more with Yemaya 🧜🏿♀️
Asé! Message received.Orí has called into me and I’ve been touched by my ancestors and my Orishas. I decided to call upon the ancestors when I needed support so I lit a few candles and spoke to them at my ancestral alter. For about 3 days and the flames are still lit. I lit two white one candles, 1 blue, 1 red, and 1 yellow candle in hope to invite them into my space using my intuition but I think this ritual has helped me unlock who my Orí is and I believe based off this video it is Yemaya! I haven’t did an “official” Orisha reading yet but when I studied abroad in Cuba My santería friend told me they think Oshun is my Orí. My friend who practices Candomblé thinks my Ori is Oya. Pero after hearing this story and the fact the Blue candle is the candle that is burning the slowest feels like I am Yemaya and she lives with me thanks to this video. And all them other Orishas are within me to bc I gave birth to them! Many other things in common like the fact that I’ve only Lived in Coastal states bc I had to live close to the beach. I always felt like the water called me and like my ancestors were in the sea. And on top of that I have seashells tatted on me and I love the color blue. Asé message received! Thank you for this channel! Divine Timing! And I love you! Asé
This was really touching. I'm just stumbling upon this and barely scratching the surface. But something about her and this story feels so good...natural and maybe familiar. Definitely subbing.
Thank you for sharing! I love your energy and story telling. Ive been looking for info about Olokun and Yemoja for a while now and this makes a lot of sense.
Hi! I’m just learning about Orishas and your videos are SO HELPFUL. I’m in the process of learning more about my ancestors and their practices. thank you so much. I am first generation Mexican American, so all this is new yet oddly familiar. Subscribed’
I’ve learned about the other Orisha but Yemaya calls out to me constantly. Seen her in my dreams, I bought a mermaid candle holder which I feel was a gift from her bc never have I ever since before learning about African spirituality have I been into mermaids enough to buy a candle holder of it but then again I’ve always loved the ocean and ocean life and I even wanted to be a marine biologist and deep diver. Anyway, I’m still learning about all the orisha but Yemaya speaks to me literally and figuratively
Wow I’m really impressed, I salute you sister, I’m from the Caribbean we are kind of like the direct ascendant of this spiritual culture, yes you’d read it right, (we are NOT descending), to hear your description and the way you’d developed the topic, so accurate, to me & may be for others, it’s a sign that the ancestors are back.
I don’t know how I missed this story! I absolutely love your story time! Such good information! Thank you for enlightening us!🧘🏾♀️⛈🧿📿💙🧜🏾♀️💙
I love this! I love your energy! Thank u for your take on all of this 💙
So blessed to find this channel! My Pisces ♓️ energy drew me here! I’d love to buy the shirt you are wearing!
I’m definitely enjoying this series 🧜🏽♀️
My first time watching. This brought me to tears. I feel like my ancestors led me here. I know about Yemaya but never really listen to her story. Just people on you-tube petitioning her and others. I have petitioned to others a few time but didn’t continue because I wanted to establish a connection with my ancestors first. Thank you for sharing.
This the best video ive seen of these. Or atleast the most understandable and charismatic.
I’M SO HERE FOR THIS! 😍😍😍😍😍😍
I recently took a step back from my spiritual journey and focused a little more on getting closer to faith. Things have drastically changed and today feeling very drained and unworthy I just so happened to run into your videos. So, now I want to thank you for giving me the inspiration to try again and do both never stop seriously!!
I will be looking forward to more content, thoroughly enjoyed this video💕
Love this. Thank you. New subbie here! I began studying the Orisha's about a year ago and have been enjoying my spiritual learning.
Thank you for sharing ❤️ I always felt close to her, lately I’ve been feeling her presence and connection! You know your spiritual history ❤
THIS IS AMAZING! thank you so much! so happy I came across your channel (knowing it wasn't a mistake but, the universe bringing me here) and so happy to see a black woman telling our stories
New subbie and i enjoy your content. Just recently finished watching your Oshun (I know a very similar and yet additional version to both of these Goddesses with all do respect) which led to Mama Yemaya. I am her child. I appreciate you speaking on the The Orishas. I was in a really dark place at a point and recently (last year) was introduced to them through signs and synchronicities and spirituality. Going down the rabbit hole of anything can be very overwhelming and confusing especially when dealing with major Depression and anxiety. i paused on it for a while, but Mamas Yemaya , Oshun and Oya stuck with me. Oshun stuck with me heavy but, Yemaya was and is on me something different. She sends me so many signs and times i feel overwhelmed to figure out what they are. She is teaching me and telling me something and I'm gonna figure our blessed relationship out some day soon. Thank you again!
this video has given me so much validation and discovery. THANK YOU!!
I love your stories, idk much of spirituality but I love learning and trying to understand it from you, keep them coming 😌😌
I love your intro omg, jammin out everytime. Thank you for these videos!!
This is an amazing introduction to Yemanja! My heritage come from Northeastern Brasil where Yemanja is heavily worshiped by the Condomble religion. I love the symbolism she has to all people!
What a beautiful story! Thank you for sharing!
i googled her because i stumbled upon her name as i was researching a name for a character in my book and found this video. i will have to go ahead and do a deep dive into all of your videos now, this was so interesting! much love
Thank you for sharing, feeling inspired by passion!!
So so so glad I found your channel ♥️ you don’t understand how connected I fee just listening to you explain ..
This resonates on another level🌊💙💙💙💙eye thank you for sharing such knowledge... I'm remembering🧜🏾♀️🙏🏾👑
Thank you Goddess for explaining these energies within all melanin 🔥
Thank you for making stories of Orishas 🥰 I watched a video about Yemaya a while back and she has been stuck in my head. Tonight I decided to discover more about her and your channel came up first. 💖✨
Thank you so much for this video, it has caused a lot of things to click for me. You're doing important, amazing work, you brought me to tears and revelations so thank you! Subscribed 😊
That was AWESOME Jasmine!!! Can’t wait to see more and more of your beautiful face and to learn more from you! 💞💞💞
I appreciate you getting involved in our journey. Look into the two ways yemaya comes to her children. The young african queen and the old wise woman
This is absolutely beautiful. Thank you!
Good job honey ! You’re a teacher . Good luck on your channel. Blessings✨
I appreciate you and the wisdom that you are putting out into the universe it’s so moving 💕 I’m new to this but it feels so familiar 😩 Queen keep going ✨
Excellent video. Can’t wait to hear more 🧡

Awwww I love your Chakra Khan art on your wall! She's my fav!
Great job Jasmine, I can't wait till you drop knowledge on the other Orishas.
I really enjoyed this. Thank you!❤
Hello, I'm from Brazil, thank you for making videos in English about this topic, I;ve been wanting to show my students about this. Today, february 2nd, is Yemanja's day in Brazil. have a great one!
I’m on a spiritual journey, that has caused me to do soooooo much research. You for sure have a New subscriber. ❤❤
Thank you. This is something I want to learn about. Blessed be.
Thank you for this! I’m getting into this now and these videos are making me want to just go a lot deeper!! I’m getting myself together to return to Africa and I just want to gather as much info as I could before I touch down for good 💜💜💜
You are beautiful! I love this video it was very insightful. I love that you mention the slave ship and Yemaya. I have heard this is the reason we have hurricane season because she is still angry. I don’t know if it is true but it seemed to fit for me lol! Thank you for sharing your knowledge!
I named my daughter after Yemaya and an Muslima warrior “Omaya”: My daughter’s name is Yomaya ❤️
Let me tell y'all I was once sitting on a step next to the lake, filling at peace and completely fufilled and the next thing u now some random beautiful black girl comes to me and she's like you look so calm right now, and Y'ALL she was right that was ones of the most peaceful moments I've ever HAD IN MY LIFE, just sitting next to that water. I FELT AT HOME.
I understand myself so much better after watching this 🙌🏾
I’m so intrigued by Yemaya ✨💎
I really appreciate your stories thank you for providing me with information about my past life that I had no idea about
Love your shirt! Thank you for your storytelling :-)
I've dreamed of her since I was a child and a woman in white with a shrouded face, my favorite colors my whole life has always been royal purple, royal blue, and yellow gold... now as I'm diving deeper I understand more of who I am naturally
So beautiful! Thank you ♥️✨
😯 After hearing this, I know exactly why I've always been called to any body of water and am always the nurturer. My sign is the water bearer. ♒ I take a lot before I "pop off". Lol I basically live off of seafood and am very easygoing. 🤯🤯 I also often feel that masculine energy that pops out even tho I am a very soft woman.
♒️ I am also the sun of yemoja but I dont eat seafood
I love this! Thank you for sharing.
Break down more sistar beautiful 😍 I love this 💕 and you’re pretty af
I needed this because I truly believe she’s stopped me from drowning 🥰
Love this!!! Thank you 💗
