[saccharinescorpion]

some eagle-eyed viewers saw this album cover when the last Nope trailer dropped, and sure enough, “Exuma, The Obeah Man” by Tony McKay plays during an important scene in Nope

McKay, in his “Exuma” persona, once claimed that the "'electrical part' of his being 'came from beyond Mars; down to Earth on a lightning bolt'"

(major Nope spoilers below the cut)

... “I’ve got the voice of many in my throat,” huh?

Exuma, The Obeah Man - Exuma (Exuma, 1970)

[realityanddelusion]

“Do you really speak the language? Do you know what your name is?” Vilification, bastardization, and dumbing down black people seems to have been in fashion since cameras started rolling over in the Americas. From the stage to the screen from the white globes of the minstrel shows to the white gloves finding there way onto Mickey and other beloved cartoons if you love it chances are it’s roots go back to chattel slavery. But this video isn’t meant to focus on the bad. This video is a mix of both fictitious representation of ATR and actual real life footage of black people being , raw, real, and powerful. I wanted to highlight key things such as animals that hold some of secrets. Bre’r Rabbit, Li Gran Zombi, Aunt Nancy just to name a few. Ring shouts and catching the Holy Ghost can also be seen in there as well for purposes I was going to go into depth over but thinking about it I believe it’s best if I leave them in obscurity. The presentation before is in no way a full representation of black majick or what hoodoo is but serves as a way of letting you know that like God and water it will take the form of whatever it’s host need them to be. 🎶Exuma the obeah man

All you wanted to know about Obeah

Obeah is a religious activity premised on a fusion of various religions. It is an art form – in fact, it would be more appropriate to call it an art of "resistance". This activity is widespread in the Caribbean and African countries. Over there, people use "Obeah" to ward off evil entities and the negativity inflicted on people's lives. As such, this is a practice somewhat connected to spirituality. 

There are plenty of Obeah practitioners today who know the power that this particular practice possesses and hence come forward to help people. There are two paths to Obeah. 

The first path involves summoning supernatural entities, and the second involves using plants and animal products. 

Obeah practices around the world 

If you want to practice Obeah, it would imply that you learn how to control and channel negative energy and spiritual forces. It comprises a wide range of practices and beliefs. The main aim of this activity is the well-being of the intended beneficiaries and society in general. It is supposed to bring good fortune, protect people from negative energies, and prevent illnesses. However, at times, Obeah is used to harm people. 

During the period when slavery was legal, Europeans practiced it for positive reasons. In the colonial era, this practice helped minimize the adverse effects of negativity in one's life.

The meaning of Obeah 

The word Obeah derived from an African term with a strong and significant meaning. There are many ways the meaning of the word "Obeah" could be perceived. Still today, in some parts of Africa, it is referred to as Obey. Some people practice this as a source of strength. In other cases, people practice it to harm others by summoning supernatural forces. History says that this particular practice originated in Africa. No matter what he does – bad or good – the Obeah man is always treated with respect.

The rituals of Obeah

Obeah is a spiritual practice often sought when someone wants to remove negative energy, especially when they feel stuck in witchcraft practices, and to remove the curse. As we have said already, this ritual is beneficial to remove negative energy from one’s life. As such, it can deal with negative forces such as jinn, Voodoo, black magic, and evil spirit. 

There are many instances when you may feel nothing is going well in your life and strange things are happening repeatedly thus affecting your life. This is when you can consider a consultation with an Obeah man. An Obeah man can play a central role in the life of any individual surrounded by evil and supernatural effects. You can be sure that no matter what, an Obeah man will always help you come out free from the spells inflicted by any other people or person to cause harm.

 Conclusion

Some so many people have had such good things to say about the positive way in which they have been affected by Obeah.

thinking about exuma the obeah man

Creatures of the earth, of space, sea and land. I'm Exuma, the Obeah Man.

This version of Ocarina of Time Link was inspired by @phoenix-arts7's @houseofheroesau because he's just...SO PRETTY.

I think I've gotten to the root of why I'm so obsessed with Zelda characters dancing. My grandma lived with us off and on from about 97 to 2001. She'd watch us play video games - particularly Ocarina of Time - and tell us stories. One story in particular I loved about the Obeah Man danced around her village until his feet bled.

Now my Grandmother wasn't Jamaican, or raised in a village and I'm pretty sure she was actually telling an Anansi Story she only partially remembered and it changed almost every time except one part: The Obeah Man danced outside of the village for days because he wanted to protect the village and everytime you see some moving in the corner of your eye, it's him keeping you and your family safe.
