โJah Wa Leโ is how the project names itself โ and it is also affectionately referred to as โThe Forest Nest.โ
โJahโ is a sacred name for God, often used in Rastafarian and reggae culture. It comes from the Hebrew โYahwehโ and appears in expressions like โHallelujah,โ meaning โpraise Jah.โ It represents spiritual presence and divine connection.
โWa Leโ doesnโt have a widely recognized meaning in any major language, but in the context of this project, it likely represents a poetic or intuitive phrase that evokes peace, harmony, or sanctuary.
Together, โJah Wa Leโ suggests a vision of a spiritually grounded community living in close connection with the land โ a forest nest where nature, healing, and human creativity come together.
