I call for protection, the protection of divinity, the protection of the universe, the protection of the most high, the protection of Mother Gaia and the protection of my ancestors. Come and shield me when my eyes are closed from the things I cannot see with the naked eye. Guard me against those who stabbed me in the back, against those who cast spells with their words behind me. I sought protection, tried to protect myself, but felt hopeless, for I could not shield myself from the jealous eyes that watched me. That is when I learned to command the universe with my spoken words, And so I command my protection from the universe. I command my protection from my guardian angel, from the Archangels and from all positive spirits that watch over life, share, believe, inspire, blacks, be.
