Nothing without a Queen

My Definition a Woman: To be a Black woman, it entails the kinks and curls of one’s hair, the fierceness in her eyes and the drive in her heart and mindset. Black women are the backbone of black men. Black Queens are the backbones of black Kings, pulling the weight to make sure her children are thriving. Black Girl Embedded in every day is a magnificence that is so easy to miss because they are so mired in the struggle and what society says they are. Black women know they deserve better, which is why they strive for the best. Black girl magic is the epitome of style, grace, beauty and doesn’t forget aging backward. They don’t know everything. They know a fraction of what there is to know, and They don’t think they ever know everything, but it’s important to them to constantly challenge themselves. To understand the world and the energies manifested within it. To tap into their abilities, to produce the most magnificent & lucrative things to be seen and felt into this world.

“Moon” (left shoulder)

Being ruled by the Moon, phases of the lunar cycle deepen (a Cancers) internal mysteries and create fleeting emotional patterns that are beyond their control.

The Egyptian Ankh( lower neck)

referred to as the key of life or the key of The Nile —is representative of eternal life. The ankh is often shown in the hands of important Egyptian figures, such as pharaohs and kings, preserving their immortality.

“Water”(Right shoulder)

Guided by emotion and their heart, (Cancers) could have a hard time blending into the world around them The water element is one of big feelings and imagination. Water signs are submerged in their surroundings, often sensing the hidden emotional reality. Water signs are attuned to waves of emotion, and often seem to have a built-in sonar for reading a mood. This gives them a special sensitivity in relationships, knowing when to show warmth and when to hold back.

“King”(Right bicep)

King” is a word that goes a step further than others in proclaiming your love and appreciation. It’s like: I see you out there. You’re doing your thing, and we may not agree on the same things nor share the same views, but you are a king. I, myself, am a King, in my life, though sometimes, I don’t know how to navigate towards my greatness. I’m certain of my potential and of leaving my mark to achieve a feat of being a King in my existence, yet I am openly aware of any lessons learned from messing up, or failing in things or of people, that it will solidify my position as King of my life, not just towards myself, but also to the imprinted values and energies I aim to leave behind to my family and generation.
