African Spirits Speak a Woman's Journey Into the Healing Tradition of the Sangoma
- Binding: Paperback
- Publisher: Inner Traditions
- Publish date: 03/01/1999
While in her early twenties Nicky fled South Africa with her husband as the strangle-hold apartheid tightened on her native land. For twenty-two years they lived in California as expatriates -- never once returning to their homeland -- until a deep depression, followed by a spiritual awakening in the California desert, compelled Nicky to return to South Africa. During her visit, while exploring deep in the bush, she unexpectedly met an old black medicine woman -- a sangoma. This meeting would change her life. Few white South Africans are even aware of the world of the sangomas, but this prophetic old woman saw in Nicky the spirit of a fellow healer and set the author on a mystical journey that would reunite her soul with its African roots. Thus began her astonishing and complex initiation into a nearly unknown world and her quest to discover the truth about herself and her heritage.
