Reference: In de woorden van een vakgenoot:

Reference information:
"Well the definition of a sangomas is a traditional healer and respected elder. This includes giving advice. We call on the ancestors to see what the future hold for the clients, so I guess that is fortune telling in a way, but it is the ancestors who do that, I am like telephone or a translator."
