6th Sense
The definition is a power of perception like but not one of the five senses
A keen intuitive power

Hard to perceive this world
Spiritual practice can grow the sixth sense
Increases the ability to connect to the subtle-world

Ashabi and her grandchildren would give food offerings to their ancestors every day. This included nine beverages (coffee, liquor, and water mixed with sugar and molasses) and nine square pieces of coconut topped with red palm oil and guinea pepper. The offerings would also include whatever food was dropped on the ground. In their house, food dropping on the floor signified more than it would in common American households.
