Journalist-cum-sangoma Rea Khoabane explores the renewed interest in an ancient calling shown by the modern generation

Sebabatso Mosamo

I called my mother and the first thing she said was:"Pray, and tell the ancestors that you accept everything they're asking you to be."Now, having undertaken that journey, I've encountered others who are trying to balance modern-day living with the old traditions. Modirapula has been doing his sangoma training in stages because he has to work."Even though I haven't yet graduated to be a gobela, my luck is back and I help people. I have a connection with babies and pregnant women."

"Young people have seen what has happened to those who denied the gift - like their aunts and uncles - how they suffered, and don't want to experience that." "The dreams never went away, instead they turned into a gift because I even started helping people. I don't know where the knowledge came from but I found myself healing.""The journey I went through wasn't easy. There were times I was asking my ancestors to take my life, but I'm fine now."Since starting to practise as a healer she's had to combine her everyday life with her spiritual one.

"I would tell my friends that I'm not going out because I have a feeling something bad is going to happen, and it would," she says.

That's how it should be as Christianity has diminished our healing prowess and ridiculed it as demonic. I hope GogoMoyoSpeaks is listening to this important development. Spiritualism could be the answer to our social ills.
