SCRIPT:

Thank you for joining me.

For taking time from your lives to be in ceremony with me For integrating new customs and rituals into your lives.

This has been a time of massive change and transformation. I assure you that our ancestors are rejoicing in the fall of the colonialist, white supremacist state.

Today, with this ceremony, we honor our entire nation as a whole and we recommit again as a nation to honor, cherish, and Venmo our sovereign queer, femme, trans, gender-expansive, Two-Spirit, Black & Brown communities, along with our beloved indigenous nations and affiliations. We honor all of those who are seeking to co-create a world that centers love, respect, empathy, interdependence, and care

I want to thank my people, the Wixaritari, for their sacred wisdom and guidance in crafting tonight’s Nierika ceremony. Nierikas are also known as Eyes of Goddexx or Ojos de Diosx, they act as portals or doorways to other dimensions. They are offerings that we leave at sacred sites to remind our ancestors and the spirits of the land that we are listening and that we are available. We humbly ask for the support of the sacred directions, elements, and ancestors that this Nierika represents in opening up this sacred space. We ask for our beloved medicine people, healers, witches, oracles, and Marakames to adapt this ceremony to fit the needs of their connections. We honor the medicine and power of our beloved communities and trust in their sovereign right to rule over themselves and decide their community’s needs.

We start by lighting our candle to show our ancestors and spirit guides that we are present, we are here, we are listening. We turn our attention inward. Taking a deep breath in, we make contact with the Divine Within Us. Feeling into our inner power and our inner vulnerabilities. Making contact with directions of the first Nierika, moving within and without. Feeling the sensations that exist inside our body and those that exist outside and surround us.

Taking another deep breath, we feel into the sacred Nierika that connects us to the Earth Beneath Us. Making a powerful connection with our hands and feet. Bowing down to pay respect and offer ourselves to the land that has nourished our ancestors and trancestors.

Moving our bodies upward we pass through the sacred Nierika that connects us to the Sky Above Us. Allowing our spirits to expand into the heavens. Making contact with the

galactic systems that surround us. Raising our hands to pay respect for the cosmic nourishment our Creatrix has gifted us across millennia.

From here we move our awareness to the East. Here we make a connection with the sacred element of Air. We ask for visions and illumination to enter into us. We ask for the sacred Golden Eagle to be present in this space. We ask for the ancestors of the East to come forward and be in ceremony with us.

We turn towards the South. Here we make a connection with the sacred element of Fire. We ask for power, trust, healing, and transformative creativity to enter us. We ask for the sacred Serpent to be present in this space. We ask for the ancestors of the South to come forward and be in ceremony with us.

From here we move our awareness to the West. Here we make a connection with the sacred element of Water. We ask for divine connection, memory, depth, and inner awareness to enter us. We ask for our beloved Black Panther and Dolphin to be present in this space. We ask for the ancestors of the West to come forward and be in ceremony with us.

From here we move our awareness to the North. Here we make a connection with the sacred element of Earth. We ask for wisdom, for leadership and understanding to emerge. We ask for our beloved deer spirit ​Kauymari​ to be present in this space. We ask for the ancestors of the North to come forward and be in ceremony with us.

We turn our awareness towards the Center. Here we make a connection with Spirit. We ask for unconditional love, infinite wisdom, peace, and illumination to enter into us. We ask for our Grandfather Fire ​Tatewari​ to be present in this space. We ask for the ancestors of the Center to come forward and be in ceremony with us.

Taking another deep breath here. We return back into our spaces. We look around and make contact with those who are present with us. If you are alone, please take a moment and make contact with me. I am here with you.

Take a moment and feel into the possibility that exists here. In this moment. What is possible here that wasn’t possible before? What wants to emerge? What wants to exist now that we have rejected capitalism and white supremacy as institutional structures scaffolding this country? What wants to emerge now that we are being led by queer, trans, two-spirit, femme, themme, and nonbinary healers, caretakers, nurturers, and medicine people? What do our communities look like, how are they becoming in the

midst of this global reorganization that is happening? As we learn to listen to and flow with the cycles of time and the cycles of nature instead of acting against them?

Feel into this potential. Know that you are a very special part of this change. Goddexx has brought you here at this moment to step into your power and act in alignment with your connections to act as stewards for the land and to offer love and nourishment to all those who live on it. We understand that life is a collaborative process. That we are never alone in our decisions. We are being guided and led by the voices of our ancestors, trancestors, plantcestors, animal kin, and the sacred Spirits of the land and those that surround us.

Taking another deep breath here, we sit in silence for a few moments to receive any oracular visions that are waiting for us. We ask our beloved Kauyumari to bring any messages forward from the other dimensions and our beloved ancestral and trancestral councils. Once this broadcast is over, I am entrusting our beloved leaders to sit with their communities and process whatever it is that came up for you and your connections there. If you are alone, please feel free to call our oracular hotline and speak with a sacred medicine person and share your visions with them.

Please close this sacred space following local, personal, and emergent ceremonial customs. For now, we count to three and take a deep breath in together, as a unified collective. One, two, three...
