A Walk into the Wilderness with Traditional Zulu Sangomas With Hayward’s Safaris
It is fortuitous that there are still authentic African Sangoma’s (Shamans) amongst us. It is also vital to our well being that we at this stage of the evolution of our sacred planet take time to reconnect at a core spiritual level with ourselves and our mother Earth.
Never before in the current history of man are we at such a cross roads where technology and life force are embraced in a potentially devastating freefall into chaos and oblivion. This does not have to happen; the earth is an expressive and abundant consciousness which seeks to exist in balance with the human race, which live within its many environments and co-exist with the expansive diversity of its life forms.
“The earth does not seek governance but co-creation and is at this time giving us a choice. Earth and humanity are not separate; we are potentially a resonance of, a harmonious state of diversification.
Balance which leads to harmony and cyclical recreation and expansion at all times is
at the core of planet earth’s intention”. Makhosi Umhlophekazi
Africa has survived, many times and this ancient ability to survive comes from knowledge of man’s basic beingness and earth’s essential nature and balance; Earth and humanity are not separate; we are potentially a resonance of a harmonious state of diversification working towards harmonious co-creative existence and an ethical understanding of the bigger picture.
It is the Sangomas who are asked to participate in the essential nurturing and expansion of human spirit in connection with earth consciousness.

Later in a private moment you may be given the choice to receive a traditional Zulu Sangoma consultation/reading from them. This involves a method of contact with the ancestors which has been passed down through Sangoma Mentor Ancestral lineage, reaching back beyond any recorded calendar.
The consultation involves connection to your ancestors and the ancestral frequencies beyond your current physical family incarnation. You will have a chance to experience your personal connection to the earth which reaches to the core of your being through ancestral consciousness. The elders of the tradition have clearly stated that the ancestors ‘call’ to an individual to be a Sangoma is one of cause and effect, energy, spirit and consciousness; reincarnation makes all racial division in regards to ancestral practice inappropriate. Sangoma’s are also called to work with the land, animals and the environment.
“ The Zulu people and other tribes, including the peoples of European descendants continue the practice of requesting guidance from and honouring their ancestors. Racial incarnation is not seen as a determining factor in regards to being a Sangoma, although there may be those who would debate this. The elders of the tradition have clearly stated that the ancestors ‘call’ to an individual to be a Sangoma is one of cause and effect, energy, spirit and consciousness; reincarnation makes all racial division in regards to ancestral practice inappropriate. It is entirely possible and has been proven, for a person in a European physical incarnation to be called into the Zulu Sangoma tradition as long as they commit to honouring the Sangoma Mentor Ancestral lineage in which they train when they become a Sangoma.” Makhosi Umhlophekazi
MORE ABOUT SANGOMA’S
Integrity within the Sangoma path is not confined to racial incarnation; it is a core consciousness which seeks to maintain ‘truths’ which are held within ancestral consciousness.
• The ancestors have no physical body and are not confined by such limitations; every single human being on the planet has ancestors.
• Sangoma’s are also called to work with the land, animals and the environment.
• They are responsible for the welfare of their immediate community and all that’s in it. This means receiving messages from the land itself, the ancestors which live in the land and connecting the people with the earth consciously.
• Shamanism has been part of the practice of Africa for as long as time records and beyond.
• Some of the most remarkable cave paintings exist in South Africa depicting the people’s earliest Shamanic practice.
• All of the tribes of Africa no matter their migrations have practiced Shamanism and the honouring, ritual or reverence for their ancestors in all their forms.
• Sangomas are responsible for the welfare of their immediate community and all that’s in it.
