Join us via Zoom on April 30 for our next bi-monthly moon meeting, where we’ll explore how the current lunation is activating your natal chart, revealing patterns, lessons, and opportunities for conscious evolution. 🌑🌕

This virtual community is a space to experience astrology, not just learn it. Through the body, your emotions, and your lived experience, you’ll deepen your understanding of the signs, houses, and transits while building a more intimate relationship with your own chart. The intention is self-understanding, self-undoing, and embodying cosmic intelligence.

During this session, you’ll learn how to track the new and full moon in real time and see how this lunation is activating specific signs and houses in your chart. Through guided reflection and collective study, we’ll build practical chart knowledge while deepening self-awareness, emotional insight, and a sense of self-mastery in rhythm with the cosmos.

This session we’ll be working with the Scorpio Full Moon. You’re welcome to bring your natal chart, or your birth date, time, and location (if known).

Relax and improve your well-being by experiencing the nurturing power of Reiki through a 30-minute virtual session. This community Reiki practice was created out of the desire to make this powerful modality accessible to all folks.

As an alternative holistic therapy, Reiki promotes restoration by tapping into the electromagnetic field of the body. By adjusting the body’s vibrational frequencies, Reiki treatments activate the parasympathetic nervous system (rest and digest) and reduce the sympathetic nervous system (fight and flight). This healing modality helps the body release physical and emotional constraints, improving health and wellness.

FACILITATED BY: Various MINKA brooklyn Practitioners

EXCHANGE: 30 min. $40-$60 Sliding Scale

OR reduced $25 option* available for EBT card holders
*You must present your EBT card to your practitioner before the session to be eligible for the $25 reduced price option.

Join Emmé for a monthly hip focused circle to ground, move, and release through the invigorating power of Twerk. Through meditation + breath work, journaling + mantra setting, and of course twerking, we’ll reflect on the energetic stress we’re experiencing within the sacral chakra while practicing activities to help create better flow within the overall chakra system. Each workshop ends with a candle release ritual. Have fun, be free, and flourish through the healing power of Twerk!

A gentle reminder that there’s still time to join Sacred Rage.

We’re in the heart of Aries season—a time ruled by Mars, where themes of anger, action, courage, and self-definition naturally rise to the surface. Instead of bypassing or suppressing that energy, this offering invites you to consciously work with it.

Through astrology, folk magic, and guided reflection, you’ll explore how your Mars placement shapes your relationship to rage—and how to hold that fire with intention, protection, and care.

This space is beginner-friendly, rooted in the Black Radical Tradition, and open to multi-racial perspectives and lived experiences.

Led by Astra Najma (they/them), an astrologer, diviner, and community organizer whose work bridges collective liberation and folk magic, Sacred Rage is both grounding and expansive.

If you’ve been feeling the heat of this season, this is a space to understand it.

Healing is a right, not a privilege.

MINKA and Ifetayo Cultural Arts Academy have come together to bring you the Ife Grove Community Clinic, a monthly sliding-scale Acupuncture & Reiki offering rooted in care, community, and belonging.

Each 30-minute session is designed to calm your nervous system, ease pain, and bring your mind, body, and spirit back into balance.
Our model is simple: we all deserve healing. But we know access isn’t equal and that Peoples of the African Diaspora and our siblings of the Global South too often face harm, dismissal, and inequity in healthcare spaces. This clinic is our answer to that. A space that holds your full story, your history, and your humanity.

Come as you are. Be cared for.

📍 Ifetayo 1561 Bedford Avenue, 2nd FloorBrooklyn, NY, 11225
📅 Wednesday, April 15, 2026 | 6:00 - 7:00 PM
💛 Sliding scale — no one turned away

What does it mean to honor your rage as sacred material?

Sacred Rage is a two-part offering exploring the energy of Mars in your natal chart and how it shapes the way you move through anger, conflict, protection, and power. Through astrology, folk magic practices, journaling, and collective reflection, this space invites you to build a more intentional, sustainable relationship with your fire.

This class is open to both beginners and advanced practitioners. While the container is multi-racial, teachings are rooted in the Black Radical Tradition, with space for participants to share from their own cultural experiences.

Together, we’ll explore:

• The Mars principle in your chart
• Navigating discomfort vs. pain
• Sustainable ways to work with anger
• Embodying Mars through the legacies of George Jackson and Harriet Tubman
• Spiritual protection, ritual, and craft for holding both rage and divinity

We’ll see over Zoom. Come comfortable, hydrated, and open.
