Yes, someone who can help you tap into and heal your divine feminine.
My elevated ancestors love red apples!
Infusing apples in honey or love-drawing herbs can create potent charms for attraction and devotion.
Their connection to fertility and sensuality makes them useful in spells to boost attraction and passion.
Apples can help with emotional healing, self-love, and releasing past heartache, making space for new love.
Halving an apple and sharing it with a partner symbolizes unity and strengthens romantic bonds.
Apples can be used to soften hearts, bring harmony to relationships, and attract sweet, affectionate love.
Ruled by Venus, the planet of love and beauty, apples embody passion, desire, and deep emotional connections.
Apples have long been associated with love, romance, and seduction, making them a powerful tool in love spells.

Ive haven't! I'm going to take a look at this.
From non-consensual experiments to lack of proper pain relief, Black women have long been denied bodily autonomy in healthcare. Advocating for better treatment isnβt just historyβitβs survival.
A 2016 study found that nearly 40% of medical students still believe the myth that Black people have thicker skin or feel less pain than white people. This misinformation affects real-world treatment.
Black women are 3-4x more likely to die from pregnancy-related complications than white women. This isnβt due to biologyβitβs due to racism in healthcare, lack of proper pain management, and dismissal of symptoms. #BlackMaternalHealthMatters
Henrietta Lacksβ cells revolutionized medicine, yet she was never asked for consent. The history of Black womenβs bodies being used without permission in medical research is long and disturbing. #blackhistory
The false belief that Black women have a higher pain tolerance dates back to slavery and still impacts medical care today. Studies show that Black patients receive less pain medication than white patients for the same conditions.
J. Marion Sims, often called the 'father of modern gynecology,' built his legacy by experimenting on enslaved Black women without anesthesia. He believed they felt less painβa myth that continues to harm Black women in medical settings today. #blackhistory
Honoring granny midwives is a form of resistance - Remembering their legacy reclaiming their practices, and challenging medical racism are essential steps in improving Black maternal care and birth outcomes today.
I honor the granny midwives of my bloodline that called me to birthwork
#blackhistory
There is a growing movement to reclaim Black midwifery β Today, Black birth workers, doulas, and midwives are reviving traditional birthing knowledge, fighting for birth justice, and advocating for Black maternal health.
#blackhistory
They were also spiritual caregivers β Many granny midwives were root workers and conjure women who used prayer, herbs, and ritual protection in their birthing practices. Their work connected childbirth to ancestral wisdom and spiritual well-being.
#blackhistory
Midwifery criminalization affected Black birth outcomes β As granny midwives were pushed out, Black women were left with fewer culturally competent providers, leading to generations of medical mistrust and poorer birth experiences.
#blackhistory
Hospitals were not safer for Black mothers β The shift from midwifery to hospital births did not reduce Black maternal mortality. In fact, systemic racism in healthcare continues to put Black mothers at higher risk of complications and death during childbirth.
#blackhistory
Racist policies pushed them out β State laws began requiring midwives to obtain formal medical training, which was often inaccessible or unaffordable for Black midwives. Many were forced to stop practicing, leading to a decline in community-based birthing support.
#blackhistory
The medical system worked to erase them β In the early 20th century, the U.S. medical establishment launched campaigns to discredit granny midwives, labeling them as "untrained" and "dangerous" to justify the rise of hospital births and the exclusion of Black women from obstetric care. #blackhistory
