Here’s some positivity for Umbandista systems!
Spiritual and religious systems have always been and will always be pillars of the plural community. Regardless of your spiritual practices and beliefs, your system belongs in this community just the way you are! This post goes out to all the Umbandista systems!
🤍 Shoutout to systems who are learning more about Umbanda, new to the practice, or are considering conversion!
🕊 Shoutout to Umbandista systems who are psychics, mediums, or otherwise connected to the spiritual world!
☁️ Shoutout to Umbandista systems who are devout and active members of their religious communities!
🤍 Shoutout to Umbandista systems whose plurality is inherently connected to their practice of Umbanda!
🕊 Shoutout to Umbandista systems who practice in Brazil or in the diaspora!
☁️ Shoutout to Umbandista systems who have found a home and belonging in their religion!
🤍 Shoutout to systems who were raised practicing Umbanda, but who aren’t sure if that religion reflects how they want to live their lives in the future!
🕊 Shoutout to Umbandista systems who share their minds with deities, saints, or the Supreme Being!
☁️ Shoutout to individual Umbandista members in non-religious systems, or headmates who practice Umbanda while the rest of their system follows a different religion!
🤍 Shoutout to Umbandista systems who regularly coordinate or take part in Umbanda dances, songs, rituals, and ceremonies!
🕊 Shoutout to Umbandista systems who feel ostracized, unseen, or left out of the plural community due to how uncommon it is to meet other Umbanda-based systems!
Whether Umbanda plays a key role in your system’s plurality, or is just the religion practiced by your system, we want you to know that your presence is vital to our spaces! Spiritual systems have always been important members of the plural community - we appreciate your perspectives and are so happy to have you here!
Please let us know if there is anything we can do to spread awareness, advocate for, or uplift Umbandista voices in our spaces! And as always, take care of yourselves and your systems, and have an amazing day!
