Righteous Sistren, blessed Love, and thankhs for joining the reasonings. It is a joy to see more sistren coming forward. And I am glad to reason upon this subject of Wombman rituals and purity.
This topic has been on Iwombman mind recently also.
Iman Black Christ Salvation had posted some things in relation to this on another thread, the thread about ANKH, More life, Sex; these are the things that Iman said:
Happy Celebration to all Wombman of Right, above all the Black Wombman Mother of all nations. Holy Empress Menen I King Selassie I Jah RasTafarI! Give Thanks For Our Mother Empress Menen Queen Omega perfect example in beauty and dignity, give thanks for all the empresses who keep the standards high and strong of How a Goddess is,
Give thanks for King Emmanuel leading and teaching the way, bringing it to remembrance with Love and Right. Give Thanks for the 21 days wombman purification principles, Give thanks for the Turban Robe and sandal way. Give Thanks for the fasting days and Sabbath to be kept Holy! All Empresses must hold to such principles including the 10 commandments! Principles of Life and Respect for ourselves. Give thanks for giving to all those who seek, knowledge of Right and Truth, knowledge of how to keep yourself and live LIFE, and not walking to the end of wrong and nothing.
Give Thanks for all those who, still up to now, are keeping strong through trials and tribulations giving great example and encouragement, Give thanks for all those sisters, mothers, Empresses who teach eachother the way, and support one another. Give Thanks for all those who are leaving the way of babylon, leaving the lost ways of death, of nakedness, lack of principles and lack of life. Keep fighting the Good Fight of Good over evil O Goddess, leave the false teachings and come to Right! This is a Divine Livity, therefore empresses must find our goodwill to stand Wombmanfully with Principles, virtue and Loyalty as a True Goddess has to be. Give thanks again and again ! I sing in my rapture, Oh Glory to God, for such a Redeemer as mine!
O GIVE THANKS UNTO JAH RASTAFARI FOR A PURE WOMAN IS HARD TO FIND, HER PRICE IS BEYOND RUBIES, HER WAYS ARE WAYS OF LIFE, SHE ALWAYS HUMBLE HERSELF UNTO HER OWN HUSBAND. SHE DOESN NOT WALK IN THE WAYS OF IDLENESS, EVEN THE STRANGERS KNOW HER HUSBAND O GIVE THANKS!! SHE IS CALLED PRECIOUS, GLORIOUS IS HER NAME, IN ALL THE GATES SHE IS ALSO CALLED BLESSED. O MAN YOU SHALL KNOW HER ALTHOUGH SHE HAS BEEN THROUGH MANY TYRIBULATION, HER DEEDS ARE TRUE ! SO SHE REMAINS UNDEFILED, GLORIOUS AND PURE IN HER GATES! SELAH KING SELASSIE I JAH RASTAFARI.
I have been pondering these ideas, and I am glad the I has brought the reasoning forward. I hope the I and also King Black Christ Salvation will be able to enlighten Iwombman about some of these things.
About the 21 days of purification:
Does this mean that a wombman should separate from her Kingman for 21 out of the 28 day cycle, only coming together during 7 days? Or does this mean 7 day separation only during the menstruation time?
Either way I am not sure I see the reason for any literal seperation between man and wombman.
Obviously sexual intercourse during moontime is messy, unnecessary, and in I personal opinion it is not desired at all during that time. But for the I's especially who have a very intense cycle, I do not think the wombman should be left totally on her own. I used to try to tough it out alone during the moontime, but I realized that if I let my Kingman be there to help me, I feel much better. He makes tea for I and he even knows a certain technique that can help remove some of the pain.
And in terms of longer seperation, I think this is totally opposite of the Inity and Cohesion that I&I strive for. I was in another state for a few days recently, and when I came forward, the King was telling I about everything that he had completed. It was a very productive few days for the I. So I asked him, "Does the I get more done if I am away?" and he laughed. He said that it is the absolute opposite. Before I&I were together, he would sometimes only sleep 2 or 3 hours, because after a long day working he would have to come home and set up the peas and rice, and all that cooking takes a while. He said it is nicer to have someone there to make dinner if he is coming home late, then it will already be set up. Iman also has migraine issues sometimes, and I would not want to leave him to deal with that alone. In the same way he cares for I during the moontime, I care for him when this pain comes. Actually he has told I that the pain is a demon and it is afraid of I, that it always starts to ease when I am around. I think the reason is also that I have paid close attention to the foods that cause the headache, like wheat or packaged foods, and strongly urged the I to stop eating those things. I also make sure that the I is never lacking herbs and have also urged Iman to smoke herbs during this time, while others have urged him not to. These things have helped him so much, and if was not here with him every day, I would not be able to see the triggers or know the right suggestions to make.
And Iwombman also feel the same, that it is nicer to be together every day. Haha even though I usually end up with more to clean up, I would still rather have the King there than be separated even for one night and leave my house spotless. It is a challenge to be together with another person so frequently, but surmounting the challenge brings such extreme Overstanding, about the Iself and about the way human interactions work, and helps both people to be kinder and more compassionate. I do not see why anyone would refuse those lessons, unless they are just not mature enough yet to handle relationships in a productive and egalitarian manner, and they just need to be single for the time. But to have a Queen or a Kingman and to stay separate for most of the time, or even for one week each month, and to live that way til both people get old or even til they both pass, it seems very illogical and unbeneficial to I.
I am hoping that ones and ones can bring more insight on why that practice would be thought of as righteous... (other than Moses saying so).
About fasting: what should a person, or an Empress specifically, fast from?
From Iytal food?
I&I sight the word fasting to usually mean, stop eating or drinking caloric foods, and sometimes even pure water, for an amount of time.
Surely this is not recommended for keeping the Istren temple in Iyest strength?
Iman Black Christ also mentions Nakedness, and the way of Turban, Robe, and sandal. Of course in the modern, perverted society, being covered is necessary, to protect oneself from these evil intentions as much as possible. But is nakedness in itself an evil thtlat should be avoided? Or is it the perversions that must be eradicated so that the nakedness can return to its purity? I hope that there will again be a time when all man, wombman, and child shall be able walk in naked splendor, without the concept of sexual perversion to taint the natural Ixistence. Indeed in many places today, this is still the case, partially if not completely:

Naturally I would rather see a return to this mentality, than to see all wombman (and all men) worldwide start to wear clothing, especially consumerized, industrialized clothing.
And in reference to what the I says, about resting and staying in the home:
Yes, it is wonderful if a wombman is able to do this. But many wombman have to leave the home to make an income. Even to go work in the fields of one's own gates, many wombman around the world must be at work all day every day to provide for themselves and their families. What does the I suggest about wombman who must Itinue to do large amounts of work Ivery day?
I can relate to feeling ashamed and even annoyed at myself for feeling so weak at times. Sometimes I will try to open a jar til I cry just because I dont want to ask for help... I pride Iself in being a Lioness, an athlete, and a Hailefull force to be reckoned with. I have many times stood up to bad men in a physical or verbal sense to protect Iself or others.
Yet I also have been known to have accidents (dropping things, breaking things, even getting in car wrecks) during I&I moontime. It is very hard to accept the ebb and flow of energy in that sense.
What does the Istren do when there are priorities that must be completed even when the I is feeling weak? For Ixample, a few months ago I was with my nieces in another state, and I began moontime the day before traveling on the airplane to come forward to CA. In the airport I was so weak, I was almost fainting, but it seemed I had no other choice but to muster up the energy and get through it. Does the Istren ever have engagements that take priority over that time of rest? And if so, what does the I do to strengthen the Iself?
Thankhs again for this topic of reasoning. I am hoping to learn more about the reasons and the practical application for those pieces of advice.
More Life + bless-sings to All.
JAH guidance
