Tano, do you remember when you were a lil kid and you had that plague of nightmares and you were taken to that shamaness and she did that water in a bowl and began dropping candle wax in it... what on earth was that ritual about/called? - Angie
shit. out of the blue with this one. uhh all i remember was being sat down in a chair in a room of candles, the lady put a bowl of water over my head , asked what i had been seeing, then she started saying something when she began dripping the candle wax into the bowl. kept saying stuff, then sloshing the water and hurling the solidified wax that formed in the water into the fireplace, she said the liquid of the wax that landed in the water then hardened up - i had to believe that it was sucking bad thoughts/feelings out of my mind? i don’t know.
i dunno if she said a prayer or something , i don’t know what happened, how it happened, what was said, what the ritual was or anything like that, all i know is i had a huge memory wipe of some kind for that entire week and i had not seen the nightmares ever again.
i bet it was just done to like will myself to believe it had all been cleansed away, besides i was four years old. i think i remember it all because of how awestruck i was about her living room, i wasn’t scared or anything.
i don’t know what form of hydro-magic that was, Anju. :
edit: i’ll do some researching and get back to you, i’m curious as all hell now.
it is a form of hydro magic to yank out bad mushy stuff in the mind/nightmares - basically water is put in a bowl and placed over somebody's head, a candle is lit so that the wax drips into the water and whatever shapes the wax makes is pulling the badness out.
