The Great Year and the Primordial Generation:

Part I

Aloha and Namaste Beloveds!

How goes it? Have I overwhelmed you yet with information? 😅I sure hope not, ‘cause I’ve got so much more to share. That being said, if you’re ever curious about topics within the realm of matrilineal traditions rooted in a primordial lineage (and what that means), don’t hesitate to send an email!

In Issue #2, I provided a list of topics organized into Clusters to be explored. It’s a living list, and I am certain much will be added. In the event I add a topic to a current Cluster or another Cluster with new topics, I will update you in a subsequent issue (unless it’s a topic set that is exciting and I need to send a quick email to share my excitement with you).


In This Issue, and The Next

Our topics of exploration rest within Cluster 2 (this issue) and Cluster 3 (the next issue; Issue 4). You can refer back to Issue #2 for an in-depth list of what topics are cradled within them.

Cluster 2: Cosmology & Lineage

The first deep dive is the Great Year of the Mayan Calendar!

This is so very important. With everything that is happening now, and with how my travels have unfolded, I want to understand the bigger why. Why am I still meandering from country to country after being guided to do so to answer my research question? I thought that once I answered the question, I’d return to the USA and create a community dedicated to anchoring the wisdom of these Primordial Mothers, to then extend beyond the USA, and ultimately, a global collective dedicated to the voices and wisdom of these Primordial Mothers.

Yet, here I am, in Vietnam, trying to figure out how…and why. Surely there’s a great reason for all of this madness!

Not just my crazy meanderings, but the world at large.

So I did what I normally do - went back to my journals. There has to be something in them that provides a clue about what is next or explains how to move forward with intention, discernment, and co-creative collaboration.

More on this in the Great Year deep dive, coming shortly in this issue.

Cluster 3: Decolonial Inquiry (Issue 4)

The next newsletter will step into that territory people are slightly afraid to explore: Identity.

😬

There are two things I am going to explore. The first one I’ll begin in this issue, the next will be in the following issue. First, it’s the “We Are All One” concept, but from a cosmogenic standpoint; two, what the Ancestral Kin Of The Earth (AKOTE) have to say about identity and our current evolutionary process (Issue 4).

The latter will be further explained in a podcast I aim to record and release between April 25th and 29th. There are several dreams that need to be introduced in order to fully understand what the Primordial Mothers are saying and asking for. For example, when they speak of relinquishing an identity rooted in rupture for the sake of evolving beyond where we are now, understanding their viewpoint and the Earth’s evolutionary trajectory is important. You don’t want to bring in narratives that were built on harm into a new reality, do you? The podcast provides a deeper explanation.

Also, audio, in addition to text, is much better at facilitating comprehension than text alone.

But, the first thing I want to tackle here, right now, is the overused, often misinterpreted, and misunderstood statement a lot of New Agers like to use:

"We Are All One"

Here’s a cosmogenic perspective on this statement:

This is an artist’s rendition of the cosmic web. That is to say, this is what the cosmos looks like if we zoomed out far enough. And if you’re familiar with what a spiderweb looks like, this is really no different.

Here’s why I prefer to use this example to break down the “We are all one” concept:

“At the very largest scales, our universe resembles a spider web. Known appropriately as the cosmic web, it is the largest pattern found in nature. Within the cosmic web, there are small, compact clumps of galaxies known as galaxy clusters. Between these clusters are voids — great expanses of almost nothing. And connecting the clusters are the filaments.
The detailed shape of the cosmic web and the intricate structures it contains have a long history. The cosmic web emerged over 13 billion years ago in the earliest days of the universe, when stars and galaxies first lit up the cosmic scene. The present-day structure of the cosmic web tells us about that evolution, and it is closely tied to the properties of normal matter, dark matter, and dark energy. If you change any one of those components, you get a new pattern in the cosmic web.” - Space.com

The reason why I use space concepts to help explain our Earthly manifestation is because it is our foundation, and this is how the Mothers taught me growing up. It is the root architecture of our existence in the physical, manifest sense.

And THIS statement is key: “If you change any one of those components, you get a new pattern in the cosmic web.” This is an intricate part of our foundational blueprint to physical embodiment on Earth, in this cosmos. In this universe.

As the article states, “it is the largest pattern found in nature,” and humanity has become so disconnected and ignorant of it. How does this apply to the “We Are All One” trope? Well, if there is interconnectedness at the cosmic level that dictates interconnectedness everywhere else, why would it not apply to us on Earth? Why would it not apply to our relationships on Earth?

Oneness is observable beyond the Earth, woven into the very architecture of existence from which Earth is created, thus trickling down into our own physical embodiment.

So when I hear the phrase “we are all one”, this is what comes to mind: we are all interconnected.

How does this apply to each of us at an embodied level?

I have shared many times before, in online conversations, private ones, and in my dissertation, that one’s cosmology (the architecture and structural blueprint) is the blueprint for one’s existence. It holds the worldview, your ontology (your way of being and existing in the world), epistemology (your way of knowing and how knowledge is created and defined), and traditions; it pretty much outlines your existence, way of life, and why it is so.

Many people don’t know what their base cosmology is, who created it, how it was received and transmitted, and what to do if they are disconnected from their root source, which would place them within their correct cosmology.

So I bring this statement to you once more, “If you change any one of those components, you get a new pattern in the cosmic web.” This applies to your cosmology - the one you are rooted in, and the one your environment is influenced by.

If we are all one, we are all interconnected, and we need to understand what cosmologies we are operating within and with. Because the one the world and planet are influenced by at this time is one filled with distortions, and the root of disconnect (rupture).

And, to give you a hint on what cosmology is running the world right now, the name of it is Theogony. This is the Greek telling of a very old rupture that has been perpetuated for quite some time.

I will go into detail in a future issue with a masterclass offered for visual reference. Developing the Genealogy of Distortion from the Theogony was a part of my dissertation thesis.


Cluster 2: the Great Year of the Mayan Calendar

In 2011, I had a visionary experience after coming out of the shower. This was while I was working as an English teacher in Jiangbei, Ningbo, China. I lived on the 7th floor of a business hotel, in room 707 (my birth date).

On April 9, 2011,

As I stepped out of the shower, an impression came to me. I saw a woman dressed in all white, a white dress, sitting in a chair for a photo, and she was surrounded by women: her daughters and other women. What came to me in addition to this flash of insight was that she is an ancestor and a Mother incarnate. This impression immediately went to my great-great-grandmother, and then the message came to me: Every five generations, a mother is born and becomes incarnate. [end of vision]

I remember when this happened. As one of the mothers walked past me, I had that vision. After writing it down, I sat with what I knew and did not know: yes, it is five generations from my great-great-grandmother to me; however, it was a primordial Mother that revealed this to me.

In 2011, I did not know what it meant for a Mother to be born, to become incarnate, every five generations. I also didn’t understand the timeframe for generations: was it human generations, or primordial generations, since it was a primordial Mother who spoke these words?


When I receive messages like this, I hold space for both/and, because it is hardly ever either/or. Mothers are not just female-born women. In the immaterial realms, they are the wombic intelligence in cosmic and spirit form. You might call them divine feminine, but that’s a colonial phrase that does not capture the fullness of what the wombic intelligence is. It’s neither “woman” nor “man” in the human-centered sense; however, it is an intelligence that is a balance of creative energies that all beings possess in the physical form (think yin and yang for the sake of simplicity). Yet, in the cosmic and spiritual realms, they are embodiments of generative creativity, specific to beings that commonly take female form because that is the container—the womb—that perpetuates life throughout all three realms: cosmic, spiritual, and physical, not just the physical.

Mama Zogbe and The Sibyl’s

The late Mama Zogbe was an initiate of Afa, which is different from Ifa, which is different from the Amma. This book was her research into how African oracular wisdom traditions were co-opted, corrupted, stolen, and appropriated by the Catholic Church. I bought this after I received a reading from her in 2018.

Everyone has a piece of the mosaic. No single person, people, or tradition has the entire picture; not a single one of us has the entire book of knowledge. We are endowed with pieces and varying degrees of access to the root Source, all depending on the evolutionary level of one’s soul.

On page 23 of this text, Mama Zogbe makes a fascinating statement. It is one that gave me pause. I connected it to the vision I shared at the start of this section, the one where a Mother revealed to me that every 5 generations a Mother is born. Here is what Mama Zogbe had to say:

I get excited in moments like this because I found a clue to a couple of things in her statement. One, there is a sacred tradition of women whose lineages are rooted in the Mothers. Two, some of these mothers are primordial, and their traditions naturally go underground to emerge at certain times.

There was an Ifa priestess who also spoke about these secret and sacred traditions of the Mothers, the late Chief Iyanife Fagbemileke Fatunmise. She called it the Iyami Osoronga (Society of the Mothers). Within the cultural lens of Ifa, that is what it’s called. Within the Afa, I am sure they have their own way of naming it. And, through a cosmogenic view of the Sibyls, you could also say that their existence was a part of a larger, global collective tradition of women connected to something far older than the labels given to them by the patriarchal establishment. Dare I say, these are traditions that were pre-human.

This is the knowledge I was raised with. It is what my mother would whisper to me as a child, and what the primordial Mothers, my ancestors, transmitted to me through dreams.

“There was a tradition rooted in the Mothers,

and they would call you once you came of age.”

Looking back at Mama Zogbe’s words,

“The priestesshood of the Sibyls were [sic] even more conspicuous. They were part of the divine cycle of Procreation, Preservation, Death and/renewal (rebirth), which was believed to take place every 600(6,000) years.”

There is a slight timing difference here, and since Mama Zogbe is no longer on this side of the veil, I cannot ask her how she got 600 or 6,000 years. What I can say is, there is a pattern that everyone needs to become aware of.

Because it is a pattern that affects the balance of the Earth, the life it supports, and the Cosmos that encompasses both.


The Galactic Calendar

The Galactic Day

The Primordial Year

Contemporary scholars call it the “Long Count” (Kremer, 2000). These are typically understood through the lens of the Mayans as “Suns” or “One World Age”. Think about it, each new age or cycle is a new “day” in the cosmic sense.

Guess how many years equate to a “Galactic Day”?

Approximately 5,125.36 years. This is one generation. A full year is approximately 25,800 - 26,000 years.

Now let’s go back to what the Mothers revealed to me in that vision back in 2011:

Every 5 generations, a Mother is born…

Remember, I said, even though we can apply this to the human sense of time, the primordial Mothers, the Amma, are not human-centered. Therefore, her primary statement referred to primordial generations. One generation is approximately 5,125 years. Five generations complete one Primordial Year. The fifth generation is the start of a new year.

When did that “new year” begin?

2012

When was her message delivered to me?

April 9, 2011

This was pretty much at the last threads of the last age. The new age, the new sun, began in 2012; precisely after December 21, 2012.

So to recap:

  • One Primordial Year is about 25,800 - 26,000 Earth years.
  • One generation is approximately 5,125 years.
  • Every 5 generations a Mother is born. This means that every 5,125 years, one of the Amma (primordial Mothers) incarnates onto the planet.
  • There is a global tradition of the Mothers rooted in the Primordial Mothers, which is pre-human. Every culture on the planet where a woman existed, is connected to this tradition of the Mothers.

Primordial Memory is important. Why? Because after 5,000 years, humanity tends to forget things and becomes an embodiment of amnesia.


Primordial Lineages

When I say “Primordial Lineages”, I am not speaking starseed, new age language. There are cultural echoes that are ancestral within my human bloodlines, that I can provide as examples. This is what separates my experiences from colonial spirituality.

And it’s this process that I want to inspire you through. How do you undo the collapsing of primordial ancestral narratives by colonizing ideologies and the ongoing conquest of Western hegemony? How do you identify what is ancestral from the desires of grandeur and superiority?

This is why Dream-Based Scholarship and decolonial epistemologies (decolonizing ways of knowing, to further mean undoing the harm that colonialism has done to our minds, bodies, spirits, and cosmological narratives) are so, so very important. This is why relinquishing colonial identities is so very important. You cannot understand where you are going or how to heal if you do not know where you came from before the harm. Before the trauma. Before the rupture. Before the cosmic discord.

If a cosmology becomes ruptured, your spirituality, worldview, and physical embodiment will mirror that rupture.

A Primordial Lineage is as it implies: a lineage rooted in a cosmogenic source. The nature of this source will be wombic (womb-like) because we begin our physical manifestation within the womb. The Cosmos is wombic, therefore, every beginning will be wombic. This means, essentially, you begin with Memory. The amniotic fluid of the womb has to hold memory in order for it to recall how to make your body. In the cosmos, the process of creating a star within a nebula is essentially the same. Thus, it is Memory that begets creation.

At the very least, that is how it is in this Universe. I cannot speak for the Multiverse (that’s a different conversation for another season).

Knowing that my lineage begins within a Wombsource, the cultural echoes (Earthly manifestations) were revealed to me via ancestral dreams since I was a child. I have ancestry from parts of Europe, Africa, Asia, the Americas, and a touch of kinship within the Pacific Islands. The cultural echoes of this Primordial Lineage are embodied in the Queen Mothers of the Akans, the Aje and Iyas of the Yoruba, the Mwt Nswt-Bity (Mother of the Divine Vessel) of the Nile Valley, the Midwives of the Yucátan embodied through IxChel’s medicine, the Norns of the Germanic/Nordic cultures, the Maharis of India, and kinship relations to Pō/Te Pō of the Pacific Island region. All of these cultural embodiments of divinity are rooted in the primordial Mothers, all of whom came to me in dreams and visions over a period of 24 years, and counting. What I know and understand about myself was revealed to me through them.


That means:

  • IxChel revealed herself, claimed her position, claimed my relation to her, and taught me what I know about healing and midwifery.
  • Nut, Mut, Nit/Nieth, Hathor (I use a different name), and Mehet Weret, all revealed themselves and taught me what I know about divine vessels and embodiment of function.
  • The Apsaras revealed the sacred dance I engage whilst Laxmi blessed it; Akasha Dhatvisvari taught me the basics of yoga. The rest of the shaktis I’ve encountered deepened the teachings I was taught, further explaining different functions and embodiments; Tripura Sundari taught me about the three realms (cosmic, spirit, physical).
  • The Norns taught me about Oracular sight by submerging me into the Well of Urd.
  • The Consciousness of the Cosmic Womb revealed herself and showed me my own creation, thus showing me the ritual root, function, and sacred source of the Ohemmas (Queen Mothers of the Akans); the symbol of Nymae was embedded in my left hand to further understand my function.
  • Pō/Te Pō revealed our kinship connection and how she created the people of the Pacific Islands.

Beloveds, there is a tradition of women rooted in the Primordial Mothers. For every age the Earth passes through, a Mother is born, thus rejuvenating this process of remembering.

That being said, what is the function of this Mother (or these Mothers) when she is born during the transition from one Primordial Year, to another?

And, if this is the process of rejuvenation for the Cosmos, Earth, and all life the Earth supports, what does that mean for you? For humanity?

Plainly put: what is the function of rejuvenation at the start of each Primordial Year?

Why are the Mothers key to that process?

What does this mean for you?


Part II - The Primordial Year/Great Year and Identity as Function

In Issue #4, we will explore Identity from the perspective of the primordial Mothers, and why this is important for the process of cosmic rejuvenation.


Thank you for making it this far, and for being here.

In Sundari Ma'at,

Ama Diya (aka Dr. Dannu)
