Ofo Ase 365 Daily Affirmations to Awaken the Afrikan Warrior Within
by Balogun Ojetade
'Lo People,
This is a Her Tangh-i-ness Approved read. I needed this book right now to remember no matter how much the media and the nonBlack culture wants to denigrate people who look like me, I am free to absorb another message. Let us see what Babalorisha Balogun Ojetade has to tell us about using the power of words.
Affirmation "6. I am a great protector of my family, community and people."
Ofo Ase 365 Daily Affirmations to Awaken the Afrikan Warrior Within is a book about the practice of using Affirmations with an Afrikan mindset. Etymologically speaking, Ofo Ase can mean sorcery ọfọ, aṣẹ decree or command, and it can also contain àṣẹ order.
Affirmation "37. I am granted a warrior's strength by the Universe around me."
The Fluidity that Ofo Ase speaks of is a critical skill to cultivate. All those Believers in Ifa and Orisha who are ruled by water will nod in agreement at this. This book is valuable for pointing out that even warriors should not, and need not war all the time. Fluidity is resilience.
Affirmation "87. I fight to bring the power of good into the world."
However, warriors are vigilant. Warriors must know when to flow away and when to engage.
Affirmation "90. I am ever victorious because I expect to win."
It is no surprise really that when Ogun, the West African deity of Iron, War and Creativity shut himself up in the forest, it was the sweet water that brought him back. Therefore I giggled when 2/3rds into the book we come to...
Affirmation "272. I attract love and romance."
It's no secret Her Tangh-i-ness loves books on Manifesting and the laws of Attraction. Most of the time Her Tangh-i-ness is mellow so people assume she's a lover not a fighter. I got news for ya'll. My daddy is an Ogun. Really. No kidding.
Note: Ofo Ase 365 Daily Affirmations to Awaken the Afrikan Warrior Within was a self-purchased digital title. Her Tangh-i-ness usually reviews on a for-the-love basis. No lucre has been involved.

Book Review: Using Einstein’s’ Formula to Manifest (Barkle #4): Applying The Theory of Everything to Desire Fullfillment Kindle Edition
'Lo People,
Her Tangh-i-ness has known about Manifesting and the Law of Attraction intuitively, but what has been delightful was to come accross those who could express some of the occurrences that were happening kind of haphazardly.
This is not the first Susan James book on Manifesting that Her Tangh-i-ness has ever talked about and won't be the last. What I like about Susan James' approach to LOA is that it is grounded in a quite Vulcan (Sorry I'm an Old School Trekkie) sensibility. Her books use down-to-earth examples with humor but there is a rigorous logic to them.
Using Einstein’s’ Formula to Manifest (Barkle #4): Applying The Theory of Everything to Desire Fullfillment Kindle Edition
This is a Her Tangh-i-ness Approved read. When you accept that we live in a friendly Universe,Using Einstein’s’ Formula to Easily Manifest just makes sense. It is a level of empowerment to the Infinite Power. I appreciate the reminder to decide and watch for what I want to have in life. This being a short book is just a means for the concept to be presented without fluff and filler. If one really thinks about what is said here, one can start deciding and manifesting like mad!

Manifesting As Another Creative Art
'Lo Peoples,
I'm taking a moment to acknowledge the importance of "deliberate creation" in experiencing life the way one wants. I've successfully manifested many personal goals when I'd reached the point of faith that aligns everything around me in service to my desires. This will be another recurring theme of mine.
For example, I work with different languages in my short stories and novels. I'm not a Native speaker of any of these languages, yet I managed to find free translation help simply because I stayed focused upon my need and having it met. It's not like I sat down and created a list of all the multilingual people I knew. Rather, in the course of conversations with people, I piped up with my language help request and found there are people who were willing to provide just what I needed.
If I told you, I'd found assistance with French that would probably not raise many eyebrows. There are plenty of online resources, library books, and self-study courses and media productions for French. In my case, I'd become fascinated by Egyptian Arabic. Not just standard street speech which is polite, but also the kind of speech that would make any Native Speaker look askance before answering. I don't read Arabic either. I use transliterated English to represent the nuances of Egyptian Arabic pronunciation and phrasing.
As a genre writer who insists upon including the erotic along with the expected science fiction, fantasy, or horror flavors, surely one can appreciate the sensitivity required in approaching a translator. Egyptian Arabic is thought of as being closest to historical Arabic. I'd agonized privately over being able to find a translator who could handle the prurient nature of some of the subject matter I work with.
Nevertheless, I have been successful. I've been successful too in attracting a plastics expert when I wanted to write about the impact of sound upon plastic for plot reasons. Most recently, an ER doctor kindly pointed out loopholes in some of my medical scenarios. I didn't set an exact timeframe for these research questions to be answered, but I know that I kept mulling over them. Since I kept them in mind, it does not surprise me that sooner rather than later, I would encounter their real-time answers.
I could have made an affirmation to speak specifically to those needs, but it wasn't necessary. I use whatever "deliberate creation" technique I think will get me a desired result. The utmost important technique is to expect a positive and welcome result in the first place.
Peace,
Her Tangh-i-ness
