Misa Blanca
COMING SOON
LaBotanica
Amsterdam
Misa blanca (white table mediumship) first introduced by Allen Kardec and later developed through afro-caribean spiritist traditions.
Espiritismo and the misa espiritual (spiritual mass) offers a subtle and potent way of communing with our ancestral Spirits, utilizing cleansings, prayers, spirit messages, to help guide and elevate our lives.
By developing our spiritual framework - the unique network of ancestral spirits that support and guide each person - we are able to move into greater wholeness, personal power and spiritual effectiveness. By stabilising the influence and power of these forces in this way we not only develop spiritually, we also illuminate and elevate the spirits themselves - aiding their evolution in return.
Through this reciprocal relationship a blessed guiding force permeates our lives, bringing increased stability, prosperity and wisdom.
It is important that you wear white, with white head covering. At least a white top and head scarf, please NO BLACK ...

I thank yanu with all my heart for being in my life and i wouldnt know who else could teach me these spriritual things and answer my questions. if you wish to change your life for the better, do the stp training!
Eve ~ Social worker
In a world full of teachers there are only a few that know how to bring a student to the understanding and an experience of a world beyond this one. Having studied with Yanu for a year he has helped me set in place daily rituals in order for me to connect more to my ancestors and spirit guides. He has helped me understand magic and how to work with energy. He has always worked from a place of integrity. I have found over the course of the year I have healed many aspects of myself but most importantly feel a stronger ability to stand on my own two feet to be able to do it by myself.

Wow, what can I say the word "training" in any case does not cover everything:-). It is a life changing program, and not in the sense that you become "different" ............... you become more yourself in your purest form.
Yanu teaches you a lot of techniques and ways to build your spiritual framework and to trust and work with it. From working with your ancestors to interpreting dreams or working with power animals, orisha's or other gods etc.
Since I do this training, I feel that everything falls into place. A deep "knowing" is tapped and Yanu helps me to stay on the ground with both feet. He is certainly no glider, but very down to earth. Yanu is a very honest man who carefully guides you on your spiritual path. I love that he can laugh at himself!
If you do this training, Yanu clearly tells you that he is in charge. That gives you a sense of security and trust. Sometimes he also gives you a friendly way to your thunder, if you do something that does not fit in with your development process or even hurts it. But he gives you all the space to discover in your own way, at your own pace and what what suits you.

Wow, wat kan ik hierover zeggen. Het woord "training" dekt in ieder geval de lading niet :-).
Het is een life changing programma, en dan niet in de zin dat je "anders" wordt...............je wordt jezelf in je puurste vorm. Yanu leert je ontzettend veel technieken en manieren om je eigen spirituele framework te bouwen en daarop te vertrouwen en mee te werken, van werken met je voorouders tot het duiden van dromen of het werken met krachtdieren, orisha's of andere goden. Sinds ik deze training doe, heb ik het gevoel dat alles op zijn plek valt. Er wordt een diep "weten" aangeboord en Yanu helpt je om daarbij met beide benen op de grond te blijven staan. Hij is zeker geen zwever, maar ontzettend down to earth. Yanu is een hele integere man die je zorgvuldig begeleidt op jouw spirituele pad. Ik vind het heerlijk dat hij ook kan lachen om zichzelf! Als je deze training doet, zegt Yanu je van tevoren duidelijk dat hij de leiding heeft. Dat geeft je een gevoel van veiligheid en vertrouwen. Soms geeft hij je ook op een vriendelijke manier op je donder, als je iets doet dat niet past in je ontwikkelingsproces of dat zelfs schaadt. Maar hij geeft je alle ruimte om op je eigen manier, in je eigen tempo te ontdekken wat bij jou past.

House Protocols
please read first if you wish to come along to any of the groups
1. Please be respectful to this House, it is a sanctuary for the Spirit's and should be treated as such.
2. When asked to bring implements, offerings or food etc, take time to consider what would be most appropriate to the Ceremony being performed.
3. If it is a Group that you are attending, ideally and if possible it would be best if you ceremonially bathed before coming along and wear clothes that are only used for ceremony. { This is not essential but will help you in creating a Sacred Manner }
4. Please turn off all mobile phones and leave all bags etc outside of Ceremonial space.
5. Never leave a circle once it has been cast without first asking permission.
6. Please help to clean and tidy up after any meditations or Ceremonies.
7. If you are a woman on your moon time please refrain from coming along. There are many reasons for this and to little space to describe them all but basically you are already in Ceremony and have no need being here.
8. Please refrain from any form of drug or alcohol use before or during any event
9. If you take any form of antidepressant please inform Yanu before any Consulta or event.
Thank you
