Months went by and I was sitting preparing for the Sunrise Service which was about two weeks away. Guess what? I broke my front tooth again. I was so deeply hurt and I put up an urgent prayer to ask God what is the message. Especially since I wouldn’t be able to get an appointment to fix it before the event. I stilled my mind and body, and there wasn’t any message. I did some research on Google until a chart of the teeth and what they represent popped up from the Khemetic Culture. I was shocked by the message from the chart. The top teeth represent the masculine energy and the sun. The bottom teeth represent the feminine energy and the moon. The four top teeth (meaning the two front main teeth and the smaller teeth on each side) symbolize the father energy and how a person navigates through life with that masculine energy. I finally understood that I was being called to heal my own masculine energy. I was being called to heal my inner lover. I asked God why didn’t he speak louder so I it wouldn’t take three broken teeth in order to get this understand. Now that I had the answer, I was unsure of what needed to be done. I was conceived from rape and never had a father in my life or any symbol of someone who thought of me as a daughter from a male perspective. So the tools I would normally use to approach the issue didn’t feel right. I tried to write to the idea of a father. Unfortunately, I was numb and nothing came to mind that could be put on paper.
