SANGOMA: My Odyssey Into the Spirit World of Africa
by James Hall
Editorial Reviews
Product Description
When James Hall was working in Africa with legendary singer Miriam Makeba, she perceived he had the rare gift to see both into the future & into people's souls. She urged Hall to consult a Sangoma, a traditional healer, who told him he was possessed by ancestral spirits who could give him the power to heal others & to become a Sangoma himself. He underwent a 2-year initiation into the mysteries of psychic possession & traditional healing. He also learned how to read meanings & messages in his set of divination bones, & began his education in the collection & preparation of plants & roots used as traditional medicines. Photos.
