"...Demystify the period and make SOMETHING that is innate 'normal' again, cause rape categories in porn are okay. Objectification and sexualisation is okay. [...] Abuse is okay but this makes them UNCOMFORTABLE..."

This is the infamous Instagram picture of a woman on her period taken by Rupi Kaur as part of her final project for a visual rhetoric course. It was removed twice by Instagram claiming it was not in accordance with the sight's community guidelines. Kaur had more than a few legit responses to Instagram, like what about the mostly naked presumably underage girls whose photos have seemed to meet the guidelines and remain posted on the sight. Kaur also recognized the rejection of her  'leaking' photo and general sense of uncomfortableness it caused as further proof of the point she is trying to make. "I bleed each month to help make humankind a possibility. My womb is home to the Divine. A source of life for our species. Whether I choose to create or not. But very few times is it seen that way." Read the full article here. And also check out Kaur's site here. 
Our society has somehow forgotten, and is choosing to no longer recognize, a woman's monthly period as a Divine miracle and cause for celebration. Young girl's are being taught to hate their bodies' natural rotation, and to be embarrassed and even ashamed of having their periods.. When in fact a woman's growing and shedding 'moon' is what singularly makes her a woman and able to create life. 

"their patriarchy is leaking. their misogyny is leaking. we will not be censored."

Many Sacred Artists and Spiritualists talk about and recognize spirit animals as guides throughout their journeys. However, I feel plant spirits are often overlooked and aren't given the recognition they deserve. Every plant, just as every animal, has its own energy and characteristics that can teach us lessons, give us power, and relay messages from Spirit. You can learn a lot of things from the flowers, as they say.

Conjure and rootwork are two words most used to describe the traditions and practices of both Hoodoo and Voodoo. Both traditions are rich in their African American roots, and to the untrained eye it may be hard to notice the difference.
