I’m doing the plain colours separately otherwise the thread will be too long. The red, white & black were originally traded with the Indians in pre-colonial Africa. White was for protection against evil, red for warriors and healers & black for sorcerers or dark magicians.
The plain fabrics are favoured by churches & those with indigenous healing gifts. These are often made into a Cape (isiphika) to cover the shoulders which was done out of respect to the ancestors by women, headwraps & robes in various colours with a cross sometimes.
WHITE symbolizes purity & is associated with AmaNdau & Inzuza, AbaLozi & AmaNono, Spirits of those who died young. They give various psychic gifts & work with water & white candles. If you dream of white garments go to the mountains, rives or ocean to connect & heal.
GREEN symbolizes new life, fertility & healing & is also associated with the feminine energy of water & ancestral gifts & calling of healing with herbs & water. They are able to heal in dreams & by laying hands on a person. This however needs someone to be spiritually adept.
BLUE symbolises tranquility, truth, loyalty & devotion. The fabric is associated with water & mountain spirits. If you see this one go there to connect. They give gifts of prophecy, healing with water, candles & salt. They also confer gifts of leadership, preaching and teaching.
YELLOW is associated with spirits of the river & the ocean. They confer psychic gifts including knowing what is hidden & operate best with prayer & fasting. To connect with these ancestral spirits go to the river or ocean to connect. This is Gogo Simenjalo @CeliStewart
RED is associated with healing & protection from enemies, hunters & warriors. One of the spirit beings is the a dragon. It’s worn by initiates (amathwasa). If you see this, you have masculine ancestral energies connected with mountains, caves & you need to go there to connect.
It’s possible to dream of or be drawn to a number of different fabrics or prints at various stages on your spiritual journey. No two callings are alike. Pray & seek guidance & clarity from your ancestors & spiritual guides & consult a healer if you need to.
Destiny Switching or swapping is a real thing. It arises from envy. People out there literally want your life & work with spiritual practitioners to swap your destiny with theirs. The good things you should get go to them & the bad things they deserve come to you.
It sounds fantastic, stranger than fiction. You think your constant hardships are because life is just hard. However someone has siphoned your energy & is manifesting a fabulous life, money, career, marriage, children using sorcery. They are able to hide it for years too.
You get all the bad luck -problems at work, money slipping away or not coming in on time, business failure, relationship issues, miscarriages etc. it’s not always just simple negative energy set to you. They attach an entity to you to monitor your progress, they know your plans.
If I had known then what I know now, when God says “Be still & know that I am God” I would have done just that. Instead I was stressed, anxious & discouraged because I just couldn’t seem to stay happy & clappy like the other Christians I saw. I closed my eyes & felt disconnected
I was encouraged by @IyanlaVanzant in her book Value in the Valley. I was in the valley of the shadow of death, surrounded by darkness, under attack by evil. I wasn’t afraid but was frustrated because it seemed it was only me. What I was learning is that God never leaves us.
Even though it felt like it, He remained near, his angels were close to ensure that I didn’t lose my mind or my life even if it seemed that way. The spiritual journey takes you through the valley to strengthen your faith because you’re required to walk by faith & not by sight.
Any spiritual tool candles, water, soil, incense, herbs etc. can be used for good to heal or protect or for evil - to kill, steal or destroy. It is all about the intention you hold when you use it. We cannot control what evil thoughts & intentions people have about us.
However, when we hold onto our good intentions for healing & protection for ourselves & others God & our spirit guides who dwell in the light will always intervene for us. They give us discernment, warnings & ways to block or counter-attack. The war between good & evil is real.
People don’t realise that evil intentions come from evil spirits that influence them to harm other people. Some of these spirits are blood ancestors who did evil deeds. Others are attracted by our life choices like lying, adultery, violence, murder etc. They are assigned to you.
Seeing the tweets under #My1stSexualExperienceWas is so sad. We need holistic sex education beyond the biology & telling girls to keep their legs closed so they don’t get pregnant. Centuries ago we had initiation schools for girls & boys to prepare them for adulthood.
In my opinion, we should teach children about all the dimensions of the human being & the joys & sorrows of having sex with the wrong people. Sexual pleasure is a gift to be shared by two people who love each other, not given by one & taken by the other.
Beyond the purpose of procreation, which is the physical purpose of sexual intercourse, it creates emotional & spiritual connections between the partners. The reason is that a human baby is totally defenseless at birth unlike other animals. It needs a mother’s & father’s care.
We need to preserve the souls of people not systems. These systems are not even in heaven. #MadhorofiyaFM
Beautiful healing space hosted by @MadhorofiyaFM. People need safe spaces to talk about their hurt & disappointment. This certainly is the Lord’s work. #MadhorofiyaFM
