Peace to you,
I am learning more and more that as we talk about the deities first spoken of by our ancestors, no matter the culture, what it is really about is realizing that energy within ourselves.
So when I speak of The Goddess, The Great Mother, Osun, Yemoja, Kwan Yin, Auset or whatever name is used, I am really speaking about this particular goddess energy inside of each one of us.
Here is a link:

The information at that link is about the energy so called Osun in the spiritual system called IFA out of Nigeria.
As you read about it, see if you can connect with the energy of Osun inside of YOU. See if you can feel how to stir up this energy or properly channel it within yourself.
What we seek to do is realize OSUN in us. It is all about become Self-Realized Goddesses. This is our power...self-realization of the divinity within.
In-Joy,

Ase!
Yes we all have a little Osun in us! I am always working on channeling that energy in a positive way. Whenever I'm down, I find comfort and strength in Osun's sweetness, skill, and warrior spirit. And when I work with that energy, I notice such a difference in the way things "move", and my interactions with people. Moving with her is a reminder that no matter how tough any situation is, I can always find a reason to smile and count my blessings :)
