Alignment with nature is important. When you pray for the right things at the right time, you can leave it at the feet of your God. You can move on with your life, knowing that you did it. The same applies to ukuphahla communicating with your ancestors. @CeliStewart
We pray, trust that the deities & spirits hear us & will answer at the right time. Even “No” is an answer. There are gods and there is Source, where all the gods come from. We pray to the Source through the gods we know.
Our ancestors who have passed on are closer to the Creator because they are spirit. However because they are connected to us by blood & are closer to us & connect us to God. Christians connect to God through Jesus. Indians connect to the Creator through deities like Buddha.
Meditation is important. We are trained to be busy. It needs practice. It’s sitting still & listening. Don’t be preoccupied with clearing your head or stopping your thoughts. Use music or anything that brings you into a place of stillness. It’s how we receive. @CeliStewart
Use different tools, avoid disturbances, that is how you get messages. If you do things from the heart you do things naturally, you cannot go wrong with spirit. Contribute to the space you’re in from the heart. Your purpose is connected to the things you enjoy & do naturally.
Your purpose is aligned to things that make you happy & you do naturally. Your purpose finds you. Ask Spirit & get confirmation & learn ways to get alignment.
Everything in the universe is connected. This is evident in the the collective unconscious. Across the world in all traditions, people are going through spiritual awakening. This is written in the stars. By the way only the astrologers saw the upheaval of 2020 coming.
Very few Christian prophets had an inkling of what was coming. Astrology was a disciplines in the mystery schools of Kemet. It was used for setting dates & times for ceremonies for spiritual alignment, planning agricultural activities & character analysis among other things.
The Bible makes a passing reference to astrology in Psalm 19 “The heavens declare the glory of God; the skies proclaim the work of his hands. Day after day they pour forth speech; night after night they display knowledge…” the Jews had their own astrology known as the Mazzaroth
In a conversation on why relationships don’t work out for gifted people, someone asked me what is the connection between sangomas & the Holy Spirit? How do I discern whether it’s the Holy Spirit at work? It’s Saturday night & I feel like I gotta talk to somebody.
As Christians we are encouraged to test the spirits whether they are at work in the church or anywhere to see if they are of God because many false prophets have gone out into the world. 1 John 4:1. Not every sangomas is evil & not every pastor working miracles is good.
Jesus Christ said you’ll know them by their fruits. Paul writes in in Galatians 5:22-24 that the fruit of the Holy Spirit is love, joy, peace, forbearance, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness & self-control. Those who consistently show these qualities
can’t be evil.
If you are struggling to make sense of your life & have stubborn & persistent problems, if you’ve prayed, fasted, visited healers & different churches with no results, you should read this. Life isn’t easy or smooth but there are some problems that are stubborn.
Isgqwebo means judgement. There is a constant interaction between the physical & the spiritual world. This is why it’s necessary to pray, meditate, speak to your ancestors and spirit guides & receive guidance. Some seers only see the symptoms & not the cause of your problems.
Generational curses manifest as a family pattern, e.g. addiction, suicide, violent deaths, girls not getting married etc. It doesn’t only affect 1 person, however usually that one will notice the pattern & investigate. Some will only fix things for themselves with dark magic.
The most significant act of violence against innocent unarmed Civilians in Zimbabwe was #Gukurahundi. It was motivated by Robert Mugabe’s desire for a 1 party state. It was genocide. @SiphoMalunga
Widespread attacks against civilians in an effort to quell the dissident threat. The dissident threat was a result of disgruntlement with the demobilization process. Both Zanla & Zipra buried weapons after the liberation war.
2000 people killed in the 1st 2 weeks by the 5th Brigade. Systematic terror & mass murder. Villagers were rounded up, made to sing songs all night, dig mass graves, then shot the men & raped the women. Tsholotsho got the worst of the 1st wave. Such trauma cannot be forgotten.
The Retso print comes in red (masculine) & blue (feminine). It is associated with hunters, those who work & mbira musicians If you dream about it, you have a Karanga or Ndau ancestor & need it for healing particularly if your illness cannot be diagnosed & spiritual protection.
It can be worn by anyone but is mostly worn by healers in Zimbabwe. The pyramid pattern links back to Kemet. The colours red, black & white the colours of Anu/Antu, the original human ancestor. The Shona word for people is vanhu meaning descendants of Anu like the Nguni Bantu.
The grey one with white spots is known as guru re hanga. Hanga means guinea fowl in Shona. It’s not very common, worn mostly by indigenous healers. It would carry the same qualities as the impangela print worn in SA.
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.
