Welcome Light Beings! Greetings to all Nations of People. Hotep, Ises, Salaam, Shalom, Peace, Paz! Everyone is welcome here. I am Empress Tintawi Charaka, my name means Ancient Moon and I have come into this physical realm to assist other light beings in remembering the ways of the Ancient and their collective connection with the Sun, Moon and Stars.
Throughout my life on this planet I have had the blessing of experiencing many spiritual paths that have led me to where I am today. I was born into a household that practiced Islam. My parents gave me the Qu'ran, the Torah and the Gospel and left it up to me to find value in them. My mother took me to Indigineous gatherings (labeled "pow-wows" by foreigners), meditations and various spiritual ceremonies that sparked my curiousity in metaphysics. In my very early teens I was introduced to chanting Nam-myoho-renge-kyo. I loved chanting because it gave me a sense of control over my own destiny.
The ancient ways always called me as a young child, to acknowledge the ancestors, to give thanks to the elements of nature, to acknowledge the divine within. I experienced many trials as a teenager and young adult, and my mother consulted a Santero to assist in healing an injured part of my spirit. Through an introduction to Santeria and the Yoruba path I found the connection to my homeland, nature, ritual, divination, shamanism and the priesthood that I so needed in my life. I walked in the Yoruba path of worship for seven years before I met my husband Ras Isatu. Together Ras Isatu and I explored the Rastafarian path. We committed to restoring the ancient vibrations of the Universe, on the Earth. Through the use of channeling, healing salves, herbs, oils, meditation, chanting and spiritual ceremonies we gained higher frequencies and manifested dreams.
It was through the powerful union with my husband that a shaman was sent to us as a guide, "Brother Hank Rising Sun," who assisted us on several vision quests. During these vision quests I was given a view of the divine, of the true essence of the spirit manifest in humans. The power to channel and see light beings was awakened. It was with Brother Hank Rising Sun as our teacher that I had my first conscious experience in astro travel and projection. Through many out of body experiences and traveling throughout ancient communities while on vision quests I gained the inner power to further develop my connection with Creation.
In the summer of 2005 Ras Isatu, my son Lijj Noh and I embarked on a journey to Ethiopia that enriched our lives beyond our imagination. We completed a cycle for our ancestors of returning to the land they were taken from centuries before. We were the first people of many generations to repatriate to Africa. We lived in the mountains of Shashemane, Ethiopia amongst Oromo, Tigre, Amhara and Rastafarian people for 7 1/2 months. Although available to us, we chose to live without many modern conveniences; we took horse drawn carriages to market and town, we cooked our food outside on open fire, we used an outhouse, bathed in basins and grew our own food and herbs. We studied native plants and learned different healing rites from native people.
During this time abroad, I fasted, prayed, and remained in close contact with nature. In December of 2005 my husband traveled to Kenya, while my son and I stayed in Ethiopia. We were physically apart for 40 days. During this time I strengthened my spirit, I wore a veil over my face to assist me in my meditative state and on the night before my husband came home the Universe blessed us to see a rainbow around the moon. A few months later, I received a message, in a dream, that I needed to come forward to the United States to share my experiences and connect with others who wanted to make the journey to the Motherland.
Along with my family, I now live in New Jersey where I use the gifts and powers that I have tapped into, by divine grace, to empower other light beings to reach their fullest potential.
