Top celebrities who are real life sangomas
One’s spirituality is sacred and vast and it differs from person to person. However, the source is one. It can be quite a task to determine which spiritual practice is more suitable for each person hence the journey is tailor made for every individual.
Ubungoma is an African practice whereby someone in the waking life uses sage to communicate with those that have passed on – ancestors, this is mainly to bring about healing to people that need clarity on personal aspects of their lives. This kind of spiritual awakening can pretty much befall anyone, including our celebrities.
