UBULONGWE - AFRICAN WEALTH 

It's not a secret that Africans measured their wealth by Cows, the more cows you have & the healthier they are - the more you are blessed because your family benefits through that. 🐄 🐄 🐄 🐄

Ubulongwe is a representation of cows & wealth. It also represents the two most important things in African spirituality : 

1. Ubuhlanti 

This is where the elders sit & discuss family issues, where most important rituals are performed.

2. Indlu Yabantu abadala / Uronta 

This is where the family sits & have family gatherings & food, including prayer. The warmth of the home is always here. 

Ironically, both of these have ubulongwe on the ground, so it's safe to say that our Ancestors are used to the environment

of ubulongwe. 

Ubulongwe is very powerful for healing purposes because it's both spirituality exciting & of purity - it comes from a cow & a cow is the highest offering to the Ancestors. Use ubulongwe for so many things, let me just list few : 

Use ubulongwe to ukupahla,

ubulongwe emsamo summons your ancestors of wealth & protection - umalusi ogada imfuyo yakowenu. You can put mpepho on top of ubulongwe or pour ubulongwe around mpepho. You can also burn ubulongwe instead of impepho because impempho summons both good & bad Ancestors.

You can can also cleanse yourself with ubulongwe from isimnyama 

You can also use ubulongwe for isibhungwe sobutyebi 

You can also use it for river bath when cleansing.

Also you can use it to introduce your children to your Ancestors & protect them. 💪

Few things to note, as much as ubulongwe from your family kraal is important, but you can use ubulongwe from the fields from any cows as well.

(Please note that some things may change from family to family, clan to clan, Ancestors to Ancestors)
