Helpful hints before you dive in:
*Any words (or letters) that are capitalized seemingly out of context (ex. Your true Self is waiting to be Free.) are making a reference to the elevated or Divine form of a concept/subject.
**Sentences with words contained in brackets (ex. You can [already] Be Free if You so wish to Be.) can be true with and without the text in brackets. So if you don’t resonate with an idea, phrase, or sentence in it’s entirety, you may resonate with it without the bracketed contents.
***Gold superscripts are clickable footnote links that provide a bit more information on a specific statement, thought, or idea. Green superscripts are non-clickable reference links which can be found in the Appendix on the last page of this digital [web]plan.

Who We Are
Angelic Musings y Virtudes is a temple and sanctuary committed to elevating the Spiritual, psychological, and physical well-being of marginalized communities and their allies. Through a holistic-healing framework designed to restore Connection with Nature, the Divine, the Self, and the Collective, we engage three interconnected pathways: restorative Self-elevation, resilient community building, and socio-ecological regeneration. Our mission is to address the disconnect underlying today’s ecological and humanitarian crises and to co-create environments where people and Nature can thrive together.
In simpler terms (Up-goer 5)…
Angelic Musings y Virtudes is a Home to help people feel more whole and more like their true Self. We offer a place for any and All to rest, grow, or play. We share Love, care, and good times when someone needs a brighter day. We build spaces where All kinds of Life have a voice and feel safe. And we lift up the people that are most in need of a break. So if you would like to help others be Free, come and let’s help as one strong, happy team.
What We Believe
Spiritual Constitution
*This is a fluid text meant to change, grow, and evolve as new insight is acquired*
Angelic Musings y Virtudes is a temple created to Honor Itiba Cahubaba – Mother Earth – and all of the Life residing upon the planet. We are guided by the values of Peace, Love, and Freedom. In practice, Angelic Musings y Virtudes aims to be a sanctuary for All who are typically outcast and excluded from spaces for not fitting neatly into prescribed ideals and principles. Given the often restricting nature of traditional [religious] dogmas and practices, Angelic Musings y Virtudes will stand firm in ensuring personal and Spiritual sovereignty by not [en]forcing any set of beliefs or practices on its community. Thus, our community should be united in their shared desire for Peace, unconditional Love, and Freedom of expression and can be of any religious, philosophical, economic, racial, ethnic, national, or educational background.
As a temple, Angelic Musings y Virtudes does not expect regular service attendance by its community. Instead, all offerings are made available so that individuals have access to them when they feel they have a genuine need for healing, upliftment, inspiration, and/or guidance.
Though rooted in the Earth-conscious, Spiritual practices of Indigenous Taino culture and the mysticism of Ancient Egyptian civilization, Angelic Musings y Virtudes believes in the inherent truth, overlap, and possibility for cohesion between all faiths, [Spiritual] practices, and religions. It is for this reason that services will aim to be inclusive of ALL Spiritual (and non-Spiritual) backgrounds.
Angelic Musings y Virtudes believes in the fluidity of gender and on the Spiritually and psychologically damaging effects of unnaturally restricting one’s gender expression to fit into rigid societal norms and expectations. It is for this reason that Angelic Musings y Virtudes recognizes the inherent Divinity in queer expressions of gender (and sexuality), while simultaneously recognizing the distinct truths and functions that the spectrum of feminine and masculine identities/energies hold in Life.
Angelic Musings y Virtudes recognizes the necessity and Divine beauty in diversity of thought, form, and Being. As such, we welcome and support all individuals, regardless of sex, gender, race, ability, creed, religion, affiliation, species, affluence, or background.
Angelic Musings y Virtudes believes in embodying and encouraging unconditional Love for ALL and for the Self in all [inter]actions. To this end, Angelic Musings y Virtudes works toward the elimination of shame associated with our natural, Life-giving bodies by taking a [body-]positive stance on naturism. The skin – as the body’s largest organ – provides a [large] interface through which to directly commune with our outer Universe, including: ourSelf, the Spirits, Mother Earth, Padre Sol, and the rest of the world around us. For this reason, we believe that the more skin that is exposed, the deeper/closer the [potential] communion one can have with ALL1. This also means that bigger bodies have much more [potential] space for Divine communion with the ALL through expositions of skin.
Angelic Musings y Virtudes believes in the synchronicity between Spirituality and science, and that there is no need to keep the realms of Logic (physical) and Spirit (meta-physical) separate when each can be used to inform the other.
Angelic Musings y Virtudes believes that ALL come from the same Divine Source/God/Universe/Spirit and in the nuanced nature of Source/God/Universe/Spirit through manifestations as other Divine Deities and Spirits (including ourSelves, our Ancestors, Mother Earth, Sol, Luna, etc.) – ALL of which work in tandem to [co-]create reality as we know it. However, we also believe that there is no definite right or wrong way to conceive of or relate to the Divine, so long as Love2 is at the core of one’s belief.
Angelic Musings y Virtudes affirms the sacredness of Life and Death in all their forms. Just as Life serves a Divine purpose, so too does Death. In this way, Angelic Musings y Virtudes believes that both Life and Death are momentous occasions to be honored and celebrated – as Death creates space for more to be born into Life. Angelic Musings y Virtudes hopes to help replace the fear and villainization of Death with acceptance and reverence for It, while offering support for the grieving that is inherent in the process. Death, after all, is but an invitation for us to forge new [or adjusted] paths forward in Life.
Though Death is a necessary part of Life, Angelic Musings y Virtudes believes that there is rarely (i.e. only under special circumstances), if ever, a need for the [unethical] sacrifice of any Life in exchange for another, and that doing so may negatively affect one’s Spiritual progression.
Angelic Musings y Virtudes believes in the sanctity and necessity3 of ALL medicines and nourishment naturally and ethically provided by Mother Earth. This includes [but is not limited to] nourishing, healing, elevating, poisonous4, and/or consciousness-expanding plants and fungi. Angelic Musings y Virtudes believes in the ethical and conscious consumption and ceremonial use of consciousness-expanding plants and fungi as a means for healing and communing with the Divine (including Mother Earth, ourSelves, and the Ancestors), as this has been (and still is) a common practice for [Nature-based] Spiritual5 practitioners. However, Angelic Musings y Virtudes acknowledges that the abuse or misuse of any sacred medicines diminishes, if not completely cancels out, the medicinal capacities of them.59
Angelic Musings y Virtudes believes that for Love to be truly unconditional and Divine, it must also be Free. This means that there should be no limit to the amount of Love one can give nor any set of conditions or rules that can define the terms of ones Love for another. This also means that it is possible to Love a person of the same or different sex/gender-identity or more than just one individual at once. As such, Angelic Musings y Virtudes believes in the right of an individual to enter into a sacred Union of Love with someone of the same sex/gender-identity or with more than one individual at the same time – so long as all parties involved consent to such a Union.
As a sanctuary, Angelic Musings y Virtudes believes in serving as a refuge for any and ALL who have genuine need of one (regardless of background, identity, or species) – so long as their presence does not cause harm to others in the community. This means we may take it upon ourselves to provide sustenance, shelter, and/or livelihood to those in need to the extent that is reasonable and feasible.
1 This does not, however, condone the harmful, insidious, or unconscious thoughts and intentions behind lustful Spirits that shallowly sexualize one’s Natural form for the sake of base pleasures.
2 And NOT fear.
3 For each individual and unique circumstance.
4 As some poisons dosed at just the right amounts can have [extraordinary] healing properties.
5 Also known as bohiti, shamans, curanderos, or witch doctors.
What We Do
TARGET: To alleviate global suffering by focusing efforts on uplifting and improving the Spiritual, psychological, and physical well-being of traditionally marginalized communities.
- To facilitate restorative Self-elevation (i.e. personal healing and evolution) by offering free or affordable virtual wellness services and products.
- To promote community building by hosting virtual service gatherings and in-person community-centered events.
- To contribute to the socio-ecological (i.e. socioeconomic and natural) revitalization of at-need communities through research-informed regenerative land development and provisioning of needed resources.
- To help transform harmful mindsets and practices into a more elevated, aware, and Love-centered consciousness through art and other far-reaching mediums.
- To provide a verifiable holistic-healing framework that can be modified and implemented by diverse communities worldwide.
Angelic Musings y Virtudes was born out of a need to heal; a need for an outlet of free expression; and a need and desire to create something new – to create change. It is born at a time when our Planet – and all Life on It – is most in need of being released from the destructive patterns of modern society. Now is the time for us to allow the Earth to peacefully regenerate and afford the space needed for All Life to resiliently evolve. We believe that in order to achieve this, a majority of the global population will have to attain a sense of happiness and well-being that is not contingent upon causing harm to any other Life. Since almost 60% of the human population currently resides in urban areas, we intend to focus and center our work in urban communities bearing most of the world’s suffering (i.e. lack of happiness or well-being): among Black, Indigenous, and other People of Color (e.g. Latinx femmes), LGBTQIA+, and diffabled (in lieu of disabled) individuals.
Conceptual Overview of Angelic Musings y Virtudes. This diagram illustrates the holistic framework that guides Angelic Musings y Virtudes. Our work targets healing and elevation at three levels:
(1) Individual Approach, which provides resources and spaces that support personal healing, empowerment, and Self-elevation.
(2) Collective Approach, which aims to shift and elevate harmful mindsets, ideals, and practices held across society by inspiring large-scale awareness, conscientiousness, and Connection.
(3) Structural Approach, which seeks to disrupt and remediate sources of institutional and socio-ecological harm by providing essential resources and (re)creating physical places that promote communal well-being.
Ofrendas de Amor represents our Structural Approach in action. This segment uses insights from our socio-ecological research to guide regenerative land development projects that strengthen community wellness, engagement, and resilience. Research findings can also inform our community-centered programs, just as regeneratively developed sites can serve as long-term sources of ecological and social data — creating a reciprocal cycle of insight and impact. In addition to grants and donations, Ofrendas de Amor is funded by our three revenue-generating segments:
♥ Edeli’s Magia – a socially conscious Spiritual and wellness-services shop that forms part of both our Individual and Collective approaches by offering healing, upliftment, and community-building experiences.
♥ Shaman’s Salve – our herbal apothecary and Spiritual goods store that supports the Individual approach by encouraging self-healing, empowerment, and everyday Connection with Nature.
♥ A Brujx’s Wardrobe – an upcycled fashion boutique that contributes to the Collective approach by using wearable art to inspire Earth-consciousness, self-expression, and sustainable cultural practices.
Together, these components create a cohesive, mutually reinforcing system designed to elevate individuals, empower communities, and regenerate the socio-ecological environments in which we all live.

What We Need
To formally incorporate as a 501(c)(3) nonprofit in Puerto Rico and begin offering our first virtual programs, Angelic Musings y Virtudes requires an initial investment of approximately $10,000. This foundational support will allow us to cover legal and administrative fees, acquire essential digital infrastructure, and establish our initial virtual operations.
As the organization grows, additional funding will enable us to activate each major milestone in our operational roadmap – expanding our capacity to serve communities, deepen our transformative impact, and move toward long-term sustainability.
In addition to financial support, we are seeking committed individuals to join our Board of Directors – specifically a Vice President, Treasurer, Secretary, and At-Large members – to help us operate with clarity, integrity, and efficiency. We also welcome collaborators and mission-aligned partners who are willing to share their platforms, networks, experience, or expertise to help Angelic Musings y Virtudes expand its reach, visibility, and community support. We especially encourage individuals with lived experience in the communities we serve to join us in shaping this work.

*Disclaimer
If you do have malicious, harmful, or dishonest intent, you will activate the protective trap spell below:
This work is my sacred child —
if you (steal/harm) it you're in for a spin.
You'll have never a win
for the crime of your sin;
you'll be stuck in a torment sin fin.
In the fashion of our Ancient Egyptian predecessors, this spell is a booby trap meant to curse anyone who attempts to disrupt this work.
Unlike light spells, which require that one have ZERO doubt of its intent for it to work, curses (or dark spells) are easier to cast since the person on the receiving end would have to be 100% confident that the curse/hex will not affect them in order to nullify its effects (this is why unbelievers in magic are often protected by their disbelief).
If I'm taking the time to explain this, it's to plant the shred of doubt that would allow this spell to work as intended. So do us both a favor and [please] don't get yourself cursed.
