2 Are you willing to stretch your ideas of who you thought you were to discover who and what you are? Prerequisites: Prior personal spiritual study and a basic spiritual practice. Must have basic knowledge of metaphysics, a deep desire, meaningful connections, or developing an understanding of African spirituality. Our system, three years in the making, derives from our founder s (Tutu) matrilineal Vodou bloodline and her family lineage as patron of the twin energies called Marassa (Divine Twins/Ibeji), as well as Osumare or Aida Wedo. This course utilizes the teachings of the Marassa divine twins of four (quadruplets), and the rainbow energy (Osumare/Ayida Wedo) which is contained within sacred teachings of West African systems to help you to reach a higher level of self, align with your sacred purpose and achieve an inner equilibrium and unity. This course helps you to remove unseen blockages which have stood in the way of you leading a full and authentic life as a self-actualizing being. Referred to as the middle path or the path of the peaceful warrior, those attracted to this may find themselves drawn to such energies as Osun, Green Tara, White Tara, Yemoja, Quan Yin, Mami Wata, The Maries, Auset, and more. This self-development path is for those committed to going deeper within to UNITE four aspects of selves disconnected due to personal trauma in youth or by genetics (ancestral karma). Signs This Course Might Be Right for You: You are attracted to paths that includes need for constant change/adaptation You look forward to self-purification and transformations (in spite of the discomforts) You are attracted to a "zen" lifestyle or practice You find it easy to show love and compassion but harder to receive it You are a seeker of truth 2

3 You find it hard to maintain inner/outer balance (feast or famine lifestyle) You find it hard to maintain inner equilibrium (may yo-yo diet) You may lack abundance or level of wealth you seek (you are not "materialistic") You may have felt a "call" to strengthen their warrior energy without losing your ability for deep compassion and love You have good communication skills but know it can be deepened You have a secret inner joy that can feel overwhelming at times (you keep it secret) You know what others are feeling at all times You love movement, dance, sports, physical activity and need it for well-being You feel empowered and renewed by spending time alone You love people from all backgrounds, although you may not like their personality You can differentiate between the person and the Soul of a person easily You detest dishonesty, lying, or intentional misinformation or disinformation You love spending time by water, mountains, and observing the sky You learn through all of your 21+ senses but prefer visual and touch when learning from others You have a keen sense of smell and your other senses are strong You thrive in independent learning but appreciate help, support and meaningful feedback You enjoy watching people and learning how the world truly functions You are highly intelligent, but may not let others know just how much You resist your urges but lack discipline to make long term gains You feel called to lead, be a priestess, a mentor, a leader or a teacher You dislike doing the same things and get easily bored. You have a low tolerance for religious dogma and obscene rules You see things from multiple perspectives; your eyes go deeper into the unseen If most of our statements resonate with you, continue reading. 3

4 This course prepares students for a shift in consciousness beyond traditional mind/body/spirit courses. This course helps you develop daily rituals that support embodiment of a lifestyle of joy-filled focused attention and action. You will then find it easier to integrated your life expression outwardly into your world living with greater tranquility, plenty of money, comfort and good health. Reclaim yourself as a sacred gift that you are. Our patron or guiding cosmic forces/energies are: Osumare/Aida Wedo - Primordial rainbow consciousness / external representation of the Kundalini energy and for us also a crown of self-actualization. Marassa/Divine Twins (Quadruplet) - Sacred science of twins and for us complex cosmic forces for manifestation, joy, and abundance. 4

5 What Type of Support do You Get? Receive direct mentoring to help you cultivate your spiritual knowledge and bring your sacred calling to fruition (up to 9 hours included during the nine-week course) You will receive guidance on how to tap into each area of the inner YOU for your deeper inner solutions in life Support on how to best stop going around in circles and make the "jump." Slowly learn to trust your inner guidance. Weekly classes cover specific topics for self-development and empowerment. Students are encouraged and supported in the study of astrology, herbalism, sacred dance, chanting, modern metaphysics, kinesiology, self-sufficiency/independence, higher knowledge, inner alchemy/magic. Is This Course for Anyone, Regardless of Belief System of Origin? Yes, we welcome all traditions. However, this course intends to reunite lost Souls with their ancient African roots through Afro-diasporic spiritual languages primarily. We use Vodou and West African based spirituality as a foundation to help move you one step closer towards self-actualization, responsible yet highest living, self "mastery" and so much more. However, we refer to many spiritual belief systems worldwide and create a complete package that anyone can relate to regardless of your spiritual background. Where Does Vodou Fit In? Our course is an orientation into a spiritual practice based on Tutu s bloodline, experience, and study. We are born into a family for a reason. Our lineage dictates that our spiritual expressions is sourced from our deepest roots and expands from that place. I Want to be a Priestess One Day, Will This Help Me? For those seeking to become priestesses under a united system, you will have the option of continuing with a nine months course (launching in Spring 2018) and/or apprenticeship six months. You can apply to set up your wisdom circles and group courses as an independent practitioners and affiliate members of SodoTutu and offer the OsuMarassa Consciouness Course as a practitioner. For those seeking to create their system, this will be useful as well. 5

6 Is This a Secret Society, Mystery School or Similar? Osumarassa Consciousness is a course that leads to participation in a society of women. There s some confusion out there about the difference. True mystery schools are hidden from view. Meaning a mystery doesn t get shared on the web. Those classes listed as such are using the name incorrectly. Secrets get shared, mysteries remain behind closed and often locked doors. That said, consider this is a course as an introduction to concepts used in feminine energetic society or a woman secret society. Are Men or Varied Sexual Orientations Allowed? While men are not forbidden, the roles we play and work within the society are to rebalance the inner feminine with the masculine within from a woman perspective. Anyone who fits into this definition of our system is welcome to participate. However, as a spiritual system for self-actualizing, we strongly discourage changing who and what you are inside to fit into something external. Do We Honor Special Days or Sacred Days? 6

7 Yes, some sacred days are in place to support seasonal restorations and inner changes. But YOU always have the choice of doing something else. This is NOT a requirement for this course; the days are there to help you. As a Woman s Group, Do We Work With the Moon? Yes, the moon and water are two of our main focus areas for emotional freedom and self-governing. However the type of person who will be attracted to this course has other options. Why do we Focus on Particular Elements? (advanced question) We use all the elements of course. However, this group *primarily work with water and air as our foundation for spiritual transformation, due to the bio-constitution of those who are attracted to this path. This has the greatest impact. Breathing Techniques Water Rituals and Alchemy (Physical, Mental, and Spiritual) Is This a Religion? Osumarassa Consciousness is not a religion; we offer guidelines, and yes, there's etiquette, and there are boundaries. Beyond that, you learn skills for self-discovery and eventually tools to help you start your own women's group. If you are looking for a solution which bridges the paths of African diasporic religions, eastern philosophy, sacred geometry, and modern science, you may find our course deeply beneficial. We encourage CHANGE and GROWTH beyond the level of each course. Is There Animal Sacrifice? Although this course is rooted in Vodou, we abstain from animal sacrifice. Some say there s no African Spirituality without animal or blood sacrifice. While there s truth to this and all religions employ a form of blood sacrifice, we have chosen a path of symbolic sacrifice to help open the system to more people worldwide and to share the metaphysics behind sacrifice as a tool. This is both purposeful and necessary for this path. We explain this in detail to our students. 7

8 I Want to Be Initiated Into Traditional Vodou, Will You Do That? No, we do not do traditional initiations. Also, Tutu s primary spiritual lineage is by birth not through initiation. Keep in mind; modern initiations became important due to the disembodiment of African spiritual traditions around the world. We are here to offer a new path to understanding so you can build your lineage. Traditional system initiations still have their role and can be useful to many. You may still want a traditional initiation. One does not limit the other. However, keep in mind an initiation simply means the ACTION OF STARTING something. It is an INTRODUCTION or COMMENCEMENT of something through action. So in a way ALL classes you take (including school, college, work, etc.) is by default an initiation or orientation into a course or a system. You may also notice a graduation and commencement CEREMONY at the end before you are led to share what you know with the world. By taking action and enrolling into our course, you are initiated into the Osumarassa Consciousness by default. We choose not to call it that to avoid confusion and misinterpretation. How do I know if this right for me? First, connect with your inner self, your guides and ancestors, your family and anyone whose wisdom you need to consider to make a sound decision. Do not take this lightly. Take as long as you like. If uncertain, then you may need to hold off. Students who are familiar or have a basic understanding of altars, shrines, metaphysics, alchemy, spells, magic, herbs will do well as this course builds on fundamentals that are easily available online. This course is ideal for the empath, the life learner, the highly sensitive, the introvert, the intuitive, the spiritualist, and those who seek a path towards priesthood or service using a Modern Vodou and West African diaspora spirituality as a foundation. Why Was This Course Developed? There are many personal reasons which will be shared in class. However, it is useful to know that many outside of traditional African and other world systems get initiated into those systems, borrow and transfer that information into new world systems. This is very common. There are a gap in sharing and a lack of respect for African-based traditions worldwide. In spite of being a massive 8

9 continent three times the size of the US, it is shocking that its spiritual gifts are usurped by others or relegated to the lowest level of possibilities for self-actualization. This helps to create many of the social problems we see in many African and Diasporic countries today. Spirituality is the foundation for any nation. When supplanted by foreign customs, a type of madness occurs in the psyche of many. Sodotutu offers one solution to help realign you with your ancestral roots and help restore a level of sanity for optimum living.
