Clio Ajana is a death midwife, lover of tarot, numerology, and astrology. A current practitioner of Baltic Heathenry and Hellenic Alexandrian Witchcraft & Spiritual Tradition, she is a member of the House of Our Lady of Celestial Fire, E.O.C.T.O. Her writings include contributions to the anthologies - Shades of Faith: Minority Voices in Paganism (2011) and Bringing Race to the Table: Exploring Racism in the Pagan Community (2015). A frequent presenter at Paganicon (https://tcpaganpride.org/) and Mystic South (https://mystic-south.com, she considers everything in her life to be touched by and guided by the Gods.
“I urge you to remember our history, our shared history as a nation, our family histories, our cultural history, and our religious history,” writes Clio Ajana. “Look to our ancients for guidance, wisdom and tips on how to survive.”
“Just as we stand and reach with our arms outspread towards the sky as we embrace the divine, our ancestors, and our connection with the natural world, we need to recall reality: we have the power to say no.”
“What is the light in our lives? Who brings joy and pleasure to our being?” writes Clio Ajana. “Despite the rash of sales for Black Friday, Small Business Saturday, and Cyber Monday, there is more to life than shopping.”
During the time of Judgement, we have a choice: Are we the message or the messenger? Do we heed the call to embrace renewal and the push to awaken our true selves?
In many ways, October travels with the ancestors are the sweetest because at this time of the year we expect to hear from our beloved ones whose memories warm our hearts.
