Adrian was the first \"White Sangoma\", after spending weeks and weeks in the Bush, repeatedly for many years, he gained the respect and trust of the traditional African people and was let in on many secrets. He discovered much about ancient settlements and other human artefacts that proved a much earlier occupation by black Bantu People than conveniently assumed by the white settlers who often liked to claim that they arrived almost at the same time as the Bantu. (One of those Apartheid myths)On their trips they had always linked up with a Headman (chief) named Samson, who led and accompanied them into the wilderness of the Magaben (some 80 km North-West from Potgietersrus)Those were the days my friend, I'd thought they'd never end.., but end they did.The obstacle course started with the fact that late departure and heavy infestation with ugly towers (that had to be neutralised) slowed us down so that we reached the target area only after dark at approximately 8pm.Apparently familiar landmarks had been modified to a degree that Kevin couldn't recognise the spot.We drove way past, still scanning the perimeter of the road. When we realised that we had lost it we spoke to some white farmers on the road.They HAD NEVER HEARD OF AN AREA CALLED MAGABEN nor of a Headman called Samson.Things started getting mysterious.We drove back, me already slightly irritated.And then it happened:The strip of grass left and right of the road was used as cattle grazing by the local population and some smaller heards were out that evening.One of the cows suddenly decided to cross the road and PAMMMM! I hit it. It went so fast that I cannot even remember having seen the cow running over, it must have been hidden behind another standing one.Zuuusch, the radiator blows, the lights go off, silence.Middle of nowhere.We step out unharmed but confused. The Pajero is a mess. The cow lies 5m in front of us and is dead. (luckily I don't have to slaughter it) Traffic whizzing by mercilessly. ALL WHITE PEOPLE ZIP BY WITHOUT STOPPING. Quite scary, because we haven't managed to put up any warnings signs yet, and the dark mass of the cow is still lying there.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cimg alt=\"\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0660\/4419\/8969\/files\/030728_miss_bitchi_damaged_front_by_night2.jpg?v=1716888520\"\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA confused shot of the damaged car right after impact\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cimg alt=\"\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0660\/4419\/8969\/files\/030727_dead_cow.jpg?v=1716888520\"\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe dead cow, already dragged from streetsome friendly locals finally stop, offering help, consolation and cigarettes.

Development had brought wide and straight gravel roads, ugly rectangular cement-block houses and a general aesthetic deterioration. Samson's homestead had been shifted about 30km from where it was, away from the road and into the bush.Finding Samson was the real shock. He is still recognised as the headman, but what had happened to him?He almost lost his eyesight, and worse: he lost his memory!The only white person he remembered was a man from a big mining company who had been negotiating mining rights with them, since Platinum has been found in the Magaben!He didn't know the name Adrian Bouchier or remember Kevin.

(A healer friend told me I had been \"blanketed\" for a split second in order not to notice the danger in time, but of course there are more banal explanations, like my anger and frustration for not finding the place etc..)The looming encroachment of the mining company. Traditional Africa and each and every memory of a time different from ours is wiped out at a breath-taking speed, turning the once proud owners of the land into a destitute mass of slum dwellers, disposable at any whim of the moment as \"useless eaters\".

Now we wanted to follow this great African river further; down to the sea, all the way through Mozambique – and even connect from the delta to Vilankulos, where my previous \u003ca title=\"Ocean gifting Mozanmique\" href=\"https:\/\/www.orgoniseafrica.com\/buy-orgonite\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\"\u003eocean-gifting acivities\u003c\/a\u003e had reached so far. The previous Zambezi expedition had already produced wonderful results; namely increased rainfalls in Southern Zambia and Northern Zimbabwe. Together with the recent gifting of lake Malawi, we hoped to achieve a real breakthrough with this expedition. Water gifting on a large scale has the potential to energetically ‘liberate’ whole regions – and when I mean regions, I’m talking large parts of subcontinents like Southern Africa, not just a few counties in a small European country. I’m talking of thousands of ‘\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.orgoniseafrica.com\/buy-orgonite\"\u003eTowerbusters\u003c\/a\u003e’ distributed over thousands of kilometres of waterways. The immediate visible effects are not as dramatic as the massive gifting of deathforce transmitters (misnamed ‘cellphone towers’ or ‘radar installations’). Nevertheless, they are profound and long lasting. Water is the main ingredient of life; a carrier of information. Increasing attention is paid by the worldwide alternative research community to water’s ability to store emotional information (see the well-publicised work of Masaru Emoto or the recent DVD: Water – the Great Mystery, available at www.waterthemovie.co.za). The Zambezi is one of the truly great rivers of Africa, the third most important one after the Nile, and the Congo. The Zambezi region in Mozambique has seen much of the atrocious fighting of a decade long drawn out civil war and much subsequent suffering and trauma. What could be a more suitable feature to gift in order to uplift the energy of this country? The planned route by boat: Cahora Bassa, down the Zambezi and along the coast to Vilanculos. The satanic pentagram over Zimbabwe. A few months before our departure, Francie, one of the psychics that regularly participate in the chat on www.etheicwarriors.com, identified the above satanic pentagram as a figure installed by ritual black magic in order to hold Zimbabwe down energetically. Two of the end points of this slightly distorted pentagram were within reach of our expedition, and we were happy to include them in our target list. One was near the small settlement Mecossa on the way from the Gorongosa National Park to Tete, the other near the Luangwa confluence with the Zambezi; the Western boundary of Lake Cahora Bassa.Getting Ready The preparations for this trip were thorough and expensive. I bought a new boat with two engines in very good condition and a lot of new safari equipment. I had custom-made fuel tanks manufactured for the boat, in order to be able to store a maximum amount of fuel for the long trips we were to make between possible refuelling points. The longest I figured would be from Marromeu on the Zambezi to Beira; approximately 340 km. There were many uncertainties to contend with and not a lot of information available. This part of the world is not a tourist area…Obstacles Mounting Getting there was hard. The unspeakably bad roads of Mozambique were shredding the boat trailer to pieces – we lost a wheel after Vilanculos and were delayed for many hours, driving back to source new wheel bearings. Luckily, the axle was undamaged. This happened many more times before we reached the Cahora Bassa Dam. When we reached the Dam after 5 days of travelling, we were proud of the obstacles we had overcome so far, but also aware that there was marked resistance to the success of the trip. Was this black magic etheric resistance or just bad luck; an oversight in my preparation? After a day of preparing the boat we took it out for a first test drive, which went well. We were quite happy with its performance, so we prepared for the great day of the big trip to Zumbo, on the other end of the lake, and back. Driving up and down to Songo to get more petrol, packing camping stuff and Orgonite on the boat filled the rest of the day. We felt we were ready and set our alarm for early next morning in order to be moving by first sunlight. The boat was in the water by 6am, but we found that it was totally overloaded and, with that weight, we could not get it up to speed – instead of about 40 km\/h we were only moving at 10-12. We had to decide quickly. The solution, not easy but necessary, was that only Tino and I would do this trip and the others would remain at the camp. We also reduced the camping gear and food supply. Finally, Tino and I were up-and-running, and in a good mood… the weather was great, almost no wind, and the water very calm. When we reached the large open water after about 40 km, one of the engines started to behave strangely, gradually losing power. We stopped to take a look. It took us hours to take the carburettor apart, clean and reassemble it, but there was no marked improvement. In fact, the engine would not start again at all. Finally, we puttered back using one engine, at a speed of just 10km\/h. Our comrades looked on with big, disappointed eyes to see us back so early and without having accomplished much. At least we had laid out a string of \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.orgoniseafrica.com\/buy-orgonite\"\u003eTBs\u003c\/a\u003e over the 40 km we had travelled; dropping one into the river approximately every 1000m. The next day was spent further dismantling that fateful engine with the help of Gary and Steven, two friendly people who were working nearby. We ended the day thinking that there was something wrong with the ignition coils.Forcing it: The Fateful Trip on the Pontoon Ferry I guess this should have been the point of going home after so many warning signs and obstacles; just a few too many to be ignored. I would not accept defeat, as it would not only mean breaking-up the expedition,
