August 2025 Issue No. 2
This isn’t just a magazine.
It’s a sacred drop of remembrance. A soul-feeding altar you can scroll through. A call to reclaim the fire our grandmothers buried deep in our bones.
The August issue of Sundana Magazine is devoted to one theme:
Ancestral Courage.
The kind that whispers “You were never meant to shrink.”
The kind that reminds you that your rituals, your rest, your rage, and your recipes — they all come from somewhere holy.
Some of the things things inside:
✍🏽 A moving contributor story of becoming a Djelimusa — a modern-day griot — and reclaiming the sacred oral traditions of Black womanhood
🍍 A Potion from the Parts We Were Told to Toss-What if the real medicine lives in the peel, the pulp, the pieces we overlook? This sacred tea blends ancestral wisdom with kitchen magic — and each ingredient holds a hidden memory.
🍝 A reimagined pesto pasta inspired by the roots we’re told to discard — beet greens, carrot tops, and bold reclamation
🔥 Rituals for releasing guilt, invoking courage, and remembering what the fire is for
💌 A new “Letters from the Ancestors” feature that answers the ache we don’t always know how to name
✨ Journal prompts, rest rituals, and ancestral affirmations for the woman who’s been carrying too much for too long
And SOOO much more
For Black women who:
Feel the burnout but don’t want to numb out
Crave meaning, softness, and spiritual connection — without performance
Are ready to reclaim food, fire, and the wisdom passed down in whispers
Want ancestral nourishment that feels like it was made just for them
This issue is your permission slip.
To remember.
To ritualize.
To rest.
To rise.
