Scenario

When couples practice Afro-diasporic traditions from different lineages

My partner and I have been initiated into different houses within our tradition and we're realizing our understanding of certain rituals and spiritual practices differ significantly, and when we try to create sacred space together at home these differences create tension that feels like it's touching something deeper about spiritual authority and belonging.

More people experience this than they realize.

What we've seen

The sacred becomes a site of subtle power struggles when intimate partners hold different initiatory knowledge and ritual authority.
