Athena came to me in a vision while on a run in May 2020, 2 weeks before the BLM movement ignited through our country.

She presented herself with beautiful dark skin, of African descent.

At first, I thought, “hmm, I’m pretty sure Athena is from Greek mythology, right…?”

I did some research - and I found out that there are historians that discovered the lure of Athena may have actually begun from African culture. Some historians believe in the 18th century, scholars changed the story of Athena and other Greek gods away from African culture due to racist reasons.* (read article below)

That’s how Athena revealed herself to me, as an angel instead of a goddess, with dark skin and exquisite beauty, sharing her message of strength and wisdom with a stern and determined look in her eyes.

Athena often presents herself with an owl representing wisdom. Her headdress represents her power and strength. Her wings and flowers express her feminine beauty and angelic presence, and the celestial wave is our connection to universal consciousness.
