      Also, can you talk about Santeria? I consider myself Pagan, learning more about the Cemi but I am also a natural medium, and I work with the angels because I was raised in Church. My dad (Puerto Rican) says I’m practicing Santeria but I don’t know enough about that to claim it.

    I read Yaya as genderless creator in Ramon Pane’s manuscript and in Cave of Jagua. And then Atabey and Yucahu as the first male/masculine and female/feminine spirits.

      I would love access to any resources you’d be willing to share! Thank you! I also like this interpretation of Yaya as genderless, then Atabey being the first female & Yukahu being the first male. It’s a good way of interpreting the information too! I would love to be able to read any info you have in this topic and I can add it to my list of resources for everyone!

    What are the sources for Atabeys' names? I know some of it comes from the unfortunately biased Spanish documents. The coqui is unique to Puerto Rico because they can't live on any other island. What other pictographs of her exist on the other islands?
    Also highly recommend checking out peer reviewed journal articles that can give more insight on documented Taino culture. There's tidbits that end up linking to a lot of the stuff you're talking about. I am collecting a list and can provide links in a DM if you like. It's pretty length and would be too long for a comment

    • @zaidcastillo7716
      @zaidcastillo7716 2 года назад +1

      Actually coqui are also common in other islands including Hawaii, I just think it’s become so recognized in Puerto Rico, I used to fall asleep to them at night and miss them so much.

    It seems like it would be easy to confuse Yaya with the African-Caribbean water goddess Yamaya. I wonder if the developement of Yamaya was influenced by Yaya

  • @redbear4027
    @redbear4027 Год назад

    It will be very important for the Taino to resist the new age movements push into their culture. I admire this young lady's courage when she says, "I will need proof." If you're using the word gender you're already off on the wrong track.
    Gender is a word constructed by social scientists who are neither social nor scientists... better to use the term biological sex. ❤ bo matum

      Yaya Attabeira is the great spirit who created Yukiyú & Guacar. How does being a great spirit remove the chance its a woman zemi?

  • @beanwednesdays
    @beanwednesdays 6 месяцев назад

    So….we have to remember, that “gender” is a colonist idea associating the bodies biological sex and sexual functions with a social place. That’s the most important point in the Atabey/Yaya discourse. It’s…colonist to desex a goddess that is so clearly female coded because the western world cannot handle the idea that a woman is holy and supreme. I am a Puerto Ricans mestizo who has felt the mother in her since before she was born, and I have also been bullied and ostracized for it, so if any of you liberals wanna argue no tf you don’t!! I lived this and you didn’t!!! It’s just true!!! And if you have a problem you’re most likely a white or western cultured American/European like I’m not sorry but I don’t care anymore. There are male and female gods, men and women should respect one another with true balance, and that is the reason we see so much distress in our modern world. Simply, and, almost condescendingly put, yin and yang are off, gang…can we GUESS what yin and yang are??? Comparative religion saves lives, and once you can see the patterns, there is no denying the truth.
