Juju talks reiki, being a full time diviner, and breaks down the importance of getting barefoot on the earth. Then Juju gets into the hoodoo deity ‘the black man of the crossroads’, how he became known as the devil (anti-blackness maybe?), and takes us on a musical journey with the Blues in between… there’s A LOT to learn about our spiritual practices through Blues! And of course I had to add some Soca in there too, I promise it’s relevant.Courtney Cobbs- Reiki master (chicago)https://www.violet...
