Aunt Nancy

Shadow of Betrayal

Anansi or Kwaku Ananse, the Akan trickster god and sacred clown, snuck into our global folktales. While Gullah-Geechee children heard tales of Aunt Nancy, the tricky spider woman, my Guyanese parents entertained us with “Nancy stories” about a witty teen spider.

Guidance: Who really betrayed you? Betrayal from others mirrors you betraying yourself.

Embodiment: Betrayal is a web that disrupts everything you thought you knew. use discernment in your relationships. Betrayal makes it difficult to trust. But without trust, your relationships are a lie. Trust that no matter what happens and no matter how long it takes, you will survive and thrive.

The real question: How have you betrayed or abandoned yourself?

Goddess Declaration: I am willing to know the truth.
