Sacred Medicine Bead Ceremonies
Welcome Brothers and Sisters !Camagu.
The Sacred Medicine Bead Ceremonies are the fullest initiations that we facilitate, we do not really have the words to describe the sacredness of these bead ceremonies. They are run every 4 years. We are all so grateful to Peter von Maltitz, Zanemvula (Blessed be he be in Spirit) for sharing these initiations into the sacred Xhosa teachings and lineage. The beads are initiations that take you to the deepest connection to the elements within yourself, the Sacred Beings and Spirits of the elements, air, water, earth and fire become one with you. In these beads you receive the blessings from Grey Elk (who is an Igqirha (Xhosa lineage)) and White Feathers Woman (Medicine Woman) as they share their lineage blessings with you. We have also been gifted an Essene Blessing with all of these beads to every person who does the beads has a stronger connection to the Source Light of the Essenes which is helping to strengthen the Holy Sophia - Christos energy as One Heart and is the lineage of Yeshua, Mary Magdalene and Melchizedek.
In order to sign up for the beads you need to have had the calling for example through the dreams or we are also given the messages. You need to have completed a shamanic practitioners course and also an advanced course. Sorry we cannot cut corners here. This is a serious commitment and one that needs honoured so we will turn you away if we feel you are not ready as Great Spirit knows best.
It is a minimum requirement if you are coming to us without having done any of our courses that following a shamanic practitioners course (presumably elsewhere or with us) you also do the Advanced Shamanic Course.
In doing the beads you also fully commit to doing the work you came to do as a soul i.e. to serve humanity and the Earth, to serve Great Spirit in humility, because the beads are so powerful if you are on a path not aligned to your soul purpose it will change.
The beads themselves have a hole in the middle representing the connection to Spirit the hollow middle (the hollow bone) as we all aim to be. Each bead represents an ancestor that come from our human lines (mother, father and soul or miscellaneous lines) and then the rocks, trees, water, elements etc.
The energy of the beads can sometimes make you want to run, make no mistake these are not for the faint hearted. You need to commit to all bead ceremonies (5 modules) before the Spirits can further work with you on your spiritual journey to becoming a medicine man or medicine woman. Initially you will be thwasa i.e. trainee shaman - being trained by the Spirits. A thwasa is a new student (thwasa means light of the new moon or ku mu thwasisa meaning #to be led to the light”. A trainee Sangoma (or ithwasane) trains formally under another sangoma for a period anywhere between a number of months and many years[1])
