There are seasons when you know something in your life needs to change. You may have outgrown a situation, found yourself repeating the same pattern, reached the end of a relationship or chapter, or simply realized that you cannot keep asking for something different while continuing to stand in the same place.
The Oya Transformation & Road Clearing Altar Ceremony is a ceremonial experience inspired by the qualities traditionally associated with Oya, the Yoruba Orisha associated with winds, storms, transformation, change, the marketplace, and powerful transitions.
This ceremony is centered on necessary movement. It is for those seeking courage during change, release from stagnation, movement after an ending, the clearing of obstacles, freedom from repetitive patterns, and the strength to step into a new season.
This is not about creating chaos for the sake of change. Sometimes something has already run its course, and what we need is the courage to acknowledge the ending, release our resistance, and begin moving forward.
Each participant will receive an individually prepared candle that will be dressed, prayed over, and worked on the House of Vasori Altar with their personal petition.
I do not actively work with Oya as a personal deity in my spiritual practice, nor am I initiated into an Orisha tradition.
This is not a traditional Yoruba or initiated Orisha ceremony. This House of Vasori altar ceremony is inspired by qualities traditionally associated with Oya and is offered from a place of study, respect, and honor for the religious and cultural traditions in which she is revered.
Your candle and petition will be prepared and worked through the House of Vasori spiritual practice, with the transformational qualities associated with Oya serving as the inspiration and focus of the ceremony.
Your candle will be individually prepared, dressed with intention, prayed over, and lit during this scheduled altar ceremony.
Pre-orders close promptly to allow adequate time for every participant's candle and petition to be individually prepared before the ceremony.
Once pre-orders close, additional participants cannot be added.
Your experience includes:
• One individually prepared altar candle
• Your personalized petition
• Individual prayer over your petition
• Candle individually dressed and prepared for your intention
• Candle placed and lit on the House of Vasori Altar during the September 25 ceremony
Includes everything in the Oya Transformation & Road Clearing Altar Ceremony, plus a private 20-Minute Transition Consultation following the ceremony.
This consultation gives us an opportunity to talk about the change you are navigating and what may need to happen outside of the spiritual work to support the intention you've placed on the altar.
We may discuss releasing old patterns, navigating an ending, establishing stronger boundaries, making a difficult decision, moving through fear surrounding change, or identifying practical steps that can help you move forward.
Because if you're asking for your road to change, there also needs to be a willingness to walk differently once that road begins to open.
Transition Consultations will begin after the Oya Transformation & Road Clearing Altar Ceremony has been completed.
You will receive an email with available consultation dates and times. Simply reply with the appointment that works best for you, and your 20-minute consultation will be scheduled.
Your petition should focus on one primary intention connected to movement, change, transition, courage, release, or clearing stagnation.

• Releasing Stagnation
• Courage During Major Life Changes

Please keep your petition clear and focused. You do not need to provide your entire history. Give me the heart of what you are asking to shift, release, or move through.
This ceremony may be appropriate for you if you've reached the point where you can honestly say:
"I know something needs to change."
Maybe you've already received the clarity but haven't acted on it. Maybe something ended, but emotionally you're still holding onto it. Maybe you've recognized a pattern that keeps bringing you back to the same outcome. Or perhaps life itself is already changing around you, and what you need now is the courage to stop resisting the transition.
The intention behind this ceremony is not destruction for the sake of destruction.
It is about acknowledging necessary change, clearing stagnation, creating movement, and finding the courage to participate in your own transition.
Spiritual work can support an intention, but you must also be willing to participate in the changes you're asking for.
If the road opens, you still have to be willing to walk it.
