Today is 9 /9/2+0+2+5 = 9

9×3 = 27

2+7= 9

One thing I find so interesting about 9 is that the numbers of whatever product is derived from its being multiplied always add up to 9!

(i.e. - 9×22 = 198, 1+9+8 = 18, 1+8 = 9
OR
9×621 = 5589, 5+5+8+9 = 27, 2+7 = 9) 

9 is true to itself. It is its own North Star. Even the number becomes an infinity symbol when inverted, flipped and joined to itself. To be succinct, 9 represents the perpetual completion and commencement of process; birth, death, and rebirth; the ever progressing spiral; the eternal circle of life…

9 is also the Orisa Oya's number, and my beautiful wife, Asia Rainey is Oya's daughter (and priest - Oyagbemi).

As our years together have transpired, I have witnessed her exemplify the qualities outlined above.
SHE IS Chaka Khan's “Every Woman”.
SHE IS at once a challenge and an affirmation, a loving expletive and an elemental double dare to elevate and vibrate higher. 
SHE IS an inspired spiral, and in her presence, no stagnancy can stand. 
SHE IS  Mother Dear. 
SHE IS Lover Quintessential. 

She is, and will remain, the one that I adore, and as a result of my submission to the will of God, we are building our life together. I bear witness to her waxing glory and expansion. Indeed, I am blessed amongst men.

Please join me in celebrating the birthday of my Beloved Queen Asia Rainey-Ani. May she forever reign…

We spent 9 days in The French Riviera (Nice, Cannes). Then we spent 8 hours in Turkey (Istanbul, Taksim). The juxtaposition was profiund and surreal.

One day, we are surrounded by super yachts, super cars, and the super rich. The very next day, we were approached by a little girl begging for change in Taksim Square at 3:30am. She was likely a Syrian refugee.

Getting outside of the US has quickly afforded me a much sharper perspective on concepts like "success","poverty","wealth","pain",etc. I can not unsee it (and I wouldn't if I could).

There is so much to share, and in time, I will be sharing more. Just know that this experience has been transformative.

Back to getting over this jet-lag...

"I know I Cannes...
Be what I wanna be...
If I work hard at it...
I'll be where I wanna be..."

A few sights from our current reality. We have hit the ground RUNNING, networking (so far) with fellow creative from all across the US, the UK, France, Germany, the Netherlands, and more. If you hadn't already seen, we have also been nominated for Best Director, Best Editing, and BEST SONG!

Big shout out to the FREEDOM team. It is indeed an honor to have been a part of this endeavor.

- I have never felt more loved by anyone. I will spend the rest of my days doing my best to compel you feel the same.

We will let you know as things progress...Ibase Ifa...

A few reasons why YOU will be at my book release on Saturday:

- You recognize, especially today, how important it is for us to write, print, speak, SCREAM our truths.

- You support fine art by actually supporting fine artists.

- You are a consumate purveyor of refined vibes.

- You know that some Maltov cocktails are made of ink and that some truths never make it on television.

- You have exquisite tastes in music and the literary arts.

- You have a passion for expansion.

Does this describe you? I thought so.

I look forward to connecting with you there. Bring your friends. Bring your loved ones.
This promises to be a transcendent event. Come prepared to be transformed.

Today marks the 4th anniversary of my initiation as an Awo of Ifa. I am truly grateful for this journey, in all of its highs and its lows, as it continues to transform me into a more balanced and loving person.

I thank my Ori, My Egun, The Orisha, and Orunmila for this communion. The saga continues...
