Question 1

What is a private spiritual consultation?

Accepted Answer

It is a one-to-one conversation in which you describe your circumstances and we discuss traditional African spiritual perspectives that relate to them. It is private, unhurried and free of judgement.

Question 2

How does a consultation work?

Accepted Answer

You reach out by WhatsApp, phone or the enquiry form and briefly describe what you would like guidance about. A private consultation is then arranged by WhatsApp or phone at a time that suits you.

Question 3

How do I contact Ancestral Counsel?

Accepted Answer

By WhatsApp or by phone at (929) 621-6854, or through the enquiry form on the contact page. WhatsApp is the channel most people find easiest.

Question 4

Can I have a consultation from the United States?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Consultations are conducted by WhatsApp and phone, so you can speak from anywhere in the United States. The number listed is a U.S. number.

Question 5

What happens during a consultation?

Accepted Answer

You explain your situation in your own words. Questions may be asked to understand the circumstances more fully. Traditional spiritual perspectives relevant to your situation are then discussed, along with what they may suggest for reflection.

Question 6

Is my conversation private?

Accepted Answer

Consultations are treated as private and discreet, and what you share is not published or shared for marketing. Details of how information is handled are set out in the privacy policy.

Question 7

Do you offer dream interpretation?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Dream interpretation is one of the main areas of the practice, particularly recurring dreams and dreams that carry strong emotion. Interpretations are traditional perspectives offered for reflection.

Question 8

What is ancestral guidance?

Accepted Answer

In many African traditions, those who came before remain part of a family's ongoing life. Ancestral guidance considers questions of heritage, repeated family patterns and dreams involving relatives who have died through that lens.

Question 9

What should I prepare before a consultation?

Accepted Answer

Nothing formal. It helps to be able to describe what has been happening, roughly when it began, and what you would most like to understand. Notes about a dream, written soon after waking, are useful for dream consultations.

Question 10

Do you guarantee results?

Accepted Answer

No. No specific outcome is guaranteed, promised or implied — in relationships, finances, health or any other area of life. A consultation offers traditional perspective, reflection and personal attention. It is not a substitute for medical, psychological, legal or financial advice.
