It’s been a YEAAAAAAR…am I right!?
Energetically. Spiritually. Physically. Emotionally.
Individually & Collectively.
This numerological 8 year was MAJAH y’all. And 2025 is ‘bout to do the MOST.
This is a time of accelerated awakening & ascension - shit ain’t easy!
Throw in the “holidays,” time with family (or not having any), this economy etc… ISSA LOT 😰.
You deserve to be held as you prepare your bodymindspirit to move through the upcoming solstice & new year’s portals.
DA GLIMMA GANG is a 12 day email experience for folx of the global majority to anchor into our vibrational truth, honor the winter/summer solstice & new year portals, and support ourselves & each other as we transition into a new era. Asé.
what’s a glimma?
A glimmer (or as I like to call it a “glimma”) is the opposite of a trigger. Coined by Deb Dana (heads up: she white), its something/someone/somewhere - internal or external - that sparks a sense of well-being. Like the sun, good grub or a hug.
Glimmas offer a moment of regulation amidst dysregulation (or, like, a dystopian earth 😜). Fear not - I’ll share more before we begin (or peep the FAQ below)!
When we practice acknowledging & accounting for our glimmas, we can move deeper into the vibration of our truest selves (Spirit/Source/miracle) & foster more love for ourselves, others & this wild ass world.
How GLIMMA GANG works…
You’ll get a daily email from cha girl sharing my daily glimma (as inspo), along with an affirmation, prompt or download connected to the energy of the day.
Then, you’ll reply to me with your glimma for the day - as testimony (halleloo! 🙌🏾).
I’ll anonymously share some of y’alls glimmas in upcoming emails so we can all be inspired, held & witnessed through the solstice / new year portals.
We start Dec 21st (solstice) & end Jan 1st (new year’s day)
For more deets peep the FAQ below.
Who its for…
Da Glimma Gang is for all folx of the global majority (also known as “BIPoC”) & centers Black and Indigenous wisdom and healing.
It’s especially for my fellow spiritual & intuitive bbs feeling the weight of these times and seeking support to feel more magnificent, more magical, and better able to embrace the MFing miracles that we are. Can I get an AMEN!?
We’ll be in flow - and our vibrational bag - to honor solstice & close out the Gregorian calendar year in a (more) good way. Asé.
Ready to Shine?
✨ We’ve already started but latecomers are welcome ‘til Dec 23rd.

FAQs…
-
All you need is : (1) an email address, (2) daily access to wifi to check your email & (3) an open mind and heart 💖
For the less spiritual folx, I’ll ensure to share links to help explain anything too deep.
-
I strive to meet as many accessibility needs as I’m able. Videos, if any, will be captioned & the daily glimma downloads will be in a blog section on my site which has an accessibility options tool.
I will also do my best to record audio of each day’s offering.
If you have an unmet accessibility need, please email Jophiel at support@rachelricketts.com & we’ll do our best to make our work workable for you/all.

Mos def bb - please do! First off - I FEEL you & you ain’t alone. December is tough for me which is WHY I dreamed up this offering.
GLIMMA GANG isn’t about bypassing our feelings, its about being real with ourselves while finding moments of reprieve - however small - to support us through these collectively traumatizing times AND our personal ish.
-
Nope.
If you want support thru these times buy my book Do Better: Spiritual Activism for Fighting & Healing from White Supremacy, and/or peep myRadical Hope webinar.
Bless 🧿
-
Nope. You’ll get out of the experience what you put in, but/and you do you boo.
Also your glimma could be the same everyday and/or you can choose not to share some days. All groovy.
And if you share a glimma with me you don’t want shared with the gang (even tho its anonymous), just LMK!

more about moi…
What’s good!? 👋🏿 I’m Rachel (she/they), a sacred soul having a wild human experience in a multiracial Black, queer, autistic, disabled & badass femme body.
I am many a ting, including an attorney turned author, speaker, oracle & sacred space holder.
My work is rooted in Afrofuturism, abolition & alchemy. I envision a world where Black & Indigenous folx are and feel deeply cared for.
And I help you, especially my intuitive Black & Indigenous babes, remember your innate wisdom & unlock the love, dignity and divine feminine power that systems of oppression tried to take from you.
I’m here to:
(A) activate & support Black & Brown lightworkers; and
(B) cultivate & co-create belonging, dignity, liberation & healing for queer, trans, mad, crip & disabled Black, Indigenous & other melanated folx of the global majority.
