One to One Sessions
( 1 hour)
John does a divination using ‘bones’ (shells, stones and other sacred objects). He goes into meditation and connects with his ancestral spirit guides, as well as the spirits of the client to search, divine or ‘see’ what is happening with the client emotionally, physically and spiritually.
At the start, John will not ask you about your reasons for wanting a consultation. The work is purer and more powerful when he does not know your personal situation or concerns, and when he simply focuses on what he discovers in the ‘bones’ themselves.
Sangoma (or shamanic) sessions differ from traditional psychotherapy in that when someone is consulting with a sangoma it is widely believed they are consulting with not only the individual in front of them, but also the shamanic lineage that they are connected to. John’s ancestral spirits or guides help to heal the person at soul level, and sometimes a person might feel the effects of a session for weeks, months or even years afterwards.
John does not do any form of counselling over email. If you would like to ask John something then organize a session with him.
When sending a divination request please confirm whether you are looking for a skype session or to see him in person. After you have sent the divination request you will be sent a ‘paypal’ request form. Once this has been processed then John will contact you to arrange a time & day that suits you both.
Skype/ Phone Consultations
John does phone/skype sessions with people who are unable to travel to see him. These sessions work slightly differently to face to face sessions. Here John works mainly with his Xhosa gifts and the form his divinations take here is called ‘vumisa’ in Xhosa, and it is a kind of channeling.
Exchange
From time immemorial Sangoma medicine people have been paid for their services whether that is in the form of animals like goats, chickens, cows or goods like tobacco. It is widely beleived that if people don’t pay or exchange something for their healing then they won’t get better.
