EKWENSU by Sirius Ugo Art

Ugo Ekwensu is the glory of the Igbo Chi of war. The totem of Ekwensu is Ugo, which is why he is hailed as Oha Obala in Afa. And like I explained in the previous art of the Eagle that conquers the serpent:

Ekwensu - Ugo Tugburu Agwo was the one that subdued the serpent. Dragon is Greek for serpent. Esoterically, the winged serpent is a representation of the lower nature or the spinalcord connecting to the sphenoid bone in the human head. the spinalcord represents stability, while the sphenoid bone is a representation of the foundation of the physical visibility (Osenabo), Thus the death / subdue / taming of the serpent is the act of taking control over your stability or taking control over your life. Taking the wheel away from Jesus and being in control of where you are going. It is also connected to the principles of Ikenga, which teaches that your destiny is in your own hands and that life is what you make it. To conquer your lower nature is to conquer the chaos in your life. This chaos is also very relevant, because we wouldn't know our higher self without our lower self, but the lower nature exist in other for us to tame, kill or subdue it. This is the esoteric meaning behind various deaths of ancient dragons in various mythologies all over the world. Atum conquering Apep, Set protecting Ra from Apep, Heru conquering Set, Marduk slaying Tiamat and many others. Even in Game of Thrones when Jon Snow slays the chaotic dragon mother for destroying the entire city. Ekwensu is hailed as Ugo Tugbulu Agwo, which is the Eagle that slayed the snake. It is because Ugo is your higher self, while the snake is your lower self. To become victorious in your life, you have to subdue the serpentine spirit within you. This is also what the Kundalini energy is all about. Kundalini means "the coiled one". And no spiritual awakening will ever occur until the coiled one is tamed. To be the Ekwensu / Oha Obala that conquers the serpentine energy within yourself, you have to practice consciousness for many years and meditate for many years.
