SARAVÁ [Asè welcome]

I'm Sioma, baptized as Kita Lukaya, Mãe de Santo [Priestess] and Padrinho Yoa of Abassa Somatree.

Abassa Somatree achieves in this space a deep practice with the ancient African Asè energy according to the Brazilian Umbanda Tradition.

Asè is the energy of pure goodness that creates life and contains the gear of the Universe that we could call Destiny. We practice positive ways to achieve Asè energy as we learn about ourselves and our purpose in this life walking with Mother Earth.

Asè energy is irradiate from Creation called Olodum, as well as from the divine Forces of Nature called Orishas.

Umbanda practice vibrates Nature & unveils Destiny.

Each Orisha is a beautiful quality of Creation that supports a thriving Life-Destiny for all humanity. The pure vibration of Yemanja Orisha brings the waters of fertility, as Oshossi Orisha throws the arrow of knowledge in communion with the forest.

Abassa Somatree honors our high-Priest Tata Mutadiamy Ndia Zambi.

HIs wisdom and warm Asè is anchored in a 300 years old Candomble and Umbanda Tradition.

You are more then welcome to receive a powerful cowry shell Ifá Oracle and Blessing from Tata Mutadiami direct from Brasil and Sioma together.

TATA MUTADIAMY NDIA ZAMBE

Abassa Somatree is fortuned by the guidance of the Orisha Father Oshossi who Blesses our Forest, as well as surrounded by the Ocean, our Orisha Mother Yemanjá. In the Umbanda Tradition, the members are blessed as a collective by the Mother and Father Orishas which reings the Priestess crown. Oshossi and Yemanjá are Sioma's Father and Mother.

Our Tradition is based on the 7 Umbanda Lines:

1. (1) Oshala-White, (2) Oshossi-Forest, (3) Yemanja-Waters, (4) Ogun-Warriors, (5) Obaluae-Healers, (6) Ibeji-Inner child, and (7) Esu-Left Line.

Each Line carries the Enchanted Beings or Spiritual Guides.

They are our great mentors who teach us about how become best humans in sevice of Mother Nature and all our sister, brothers, and siblings.

Abassa Somatree has a group of Enchanted Beings who support the spiritual works.

The main one is Caboclo Tupinambá, from the Forest Line, who has been guiding Sioma to consolidate this beautiful community.

Abassa Somatree receives the protection of the Enchanted Fire Gypsy Pomba-Gira and Sir Midnight Exu from the Left Line.

Also anchors the protection of Seu Tranca-Ruas Lami Key de Deus Exu with Yoa's guidance.

The members of Abassa Somatree also contribute with the energy of their own Enchated Beings or spiritual guides.

You are welcome to slowly learn about your own spiritual guides through our workshops, sessions, retreats, and the material below.
