Celebrating Sisters in My Womanline

Yesterday marked the beginning of the astrological New Year, Spring Equinox, and Aries season. Also, Mercury Upgrade (Retrograde) ended.

What a powerful time!

I am here for it all and feel my creative energy increasing!!!!

My ancestors are guiding me to use my digital collages to celebrate sisters in my womanline.

Today’s Ancestral Medicine digital collage is entitled “Roberts Sisters #1.” It celebrates the sisterhood between my grandaunt Paulyne Roberts (“Aunt Paul”) and her little sister, Frederica Stanley Roberts Leeke, my grandmother (“Grandmommy”).

I started with a 1918 photo of Aunt Paul holding Grandmommy on the porch of their family home on Spruce Street in Terre Haute, Indiana. I added a few more photos from 1915, the 1920s, and the1950s.

I also used Canva’s filters to change the look of the photos.

Several colorful Abusua Pa Ghanaian Adinkra symbols were added to Aunt Paul and Grandmommy’s clothing.

Abusua Pa refers to family unity, kinship, and support.
