What do you really know about the sacred science of soulmating? Did you know that the symbol commonly known as the "heart" is actually called the Akoma? How would our relationships be if the principles of love were celebrated throughout the entire year?! Could the clarity to our relationship "haze" lie in a return to original cultural values?

The Akoma House Initiative is excited to introduce the newly created Sacred Soul Mate Curriculum - a series of multi-sensory, action-based workshops that blend our ancient cultural wisdoms with modern practical methods to create empowerment that promises to levitate your love. You will laugh, cry, wonder, and "a-ha!" your way into your optimal love.

Akoma Day: A Guidebook into the Sacred Science of Soulmating & Cultural Alternative to Valentine's Day will introduce the reader to the Sacred Science in three part parts: First, is a thought provoking discussion about the current state of black relationships, including the Edus' own triumphant love story. Second, is an in-depth presentation of of Akoma Day - a 7 day Black Love Holiday (February 14- February 20), its signs, virtues, principles and overall significance.
