ATR Profile Narrative: Oyaseeke is a 28-year-old nonbinary, Hoodoo and Ifa practitioner from Cincinnati, Ohio. Their ATR practices are constantly shaped by their ancestors, energy, and access, “ATR/ADR is weaved throughout my day. It can shift, flow, and expand. It can look like rising prayers to my ori to help me get grounded before going about my business, putting juju into my afternoon tea, or chatting with trees during a walk break.”
Oyaseeke’s ATR practices have changed their life in many ways. It has provided them with the tools to unpack learned white idealogy and programming as well as allowing them to have a deeper connection with their ancestors and the healing ways of their people. It has also helped them connect with mother nature and led them through painful yet necessary transformations. Oyaseeke’s advice for those who are interested in pursuing an ATR practice is to start with their ancestors! They say to start chatting with your folks, set an intention for elevated or loved kin, and start learning how your intuition feels, sounds, and tastes.
