Menstruation and Mojo!

from The Practice of a Hoodoo Baptist · host With Chelsea VonChaz

Say it with me: Menstruation. Periods!They taught us to hide it. To be ashamed of it. To treat it like something dirty, something to pray away. We don’t talk about this enough. About how spiritual menstruation really is.How the body sheds what’s no longer needed—and how that’s likely a holy act.How the womb speaks in cramps and cravings, in silence and blood.But the truth is — blood is sacred. Menstruation is a monthly initiation. A reminder that your body is a temple, and your cycle is a ceremony.This episode is a love letter to the flow.A reclamation of power that’s been hidden, hushed, and misunderstood for too long.🎧 In this episode:* I reflect on the spiritual significance of menstruation* What church never taught us about the sacredness of the womb* How I use rootwork and ritual to support my cycle* And why our blood holds memory, medicine, and mojo💭 Reflection Prompt:How do you tend to your body during your cycle?What would it feel like to treat your period like a spiritual practice?🙌🏾 JoinThe Anointed FewAs a paid subscriber, you’ll get access to exclusive altar notes, bonus episodes, and spiritual tools to help you stay in alignment with your body, your blood, and your purpose.
