THE RETURN OF THE EMPRESS!

Picture
Because of the dawn of younger religions that replaced many ancient indigenous religions of the world, the standard of women being a symbolic vehicle for Absolute Reality and Absolute Creative Fertility had been cast down and replaced by an exclusive male archetype.

In the old ways, seeing the Creator within a feminine principle, alongside the masculine, was not seen as something awkward or unusual. Conquerors stemming from the younger religions thought it was unfit because their creator either represented a male or masculine energy; or, at the very least, thought that Creative Supremacy had to be spoken about via the masculine pronoun or tense only.

DEOZI thought it not insulting or demeaning to reclaim the ancient symbol of the Woman. The Empress is a piece of art representing the High Powered Beings like: Yemoja, Atabey, Oya, Mamiwata, Asase Ya, Kitami Nyabinghi, Nehanda Nyamhika, and My Ancestor SAABA. They are All Powerful expressions of Life Makers and Takers! Their presence was there alongside the masculine principle. Let us bring them back! DEOZI! For Artwork Services, Contact deozi@deozi.com
