What can you see? What story does it tell?
A Japanese artist went to me for Hilot. So i give her Hilot and start with Tawas Ritual. I prepare a glass of water and raw egg and start to pray and make the egg touch the body parts of the client which are the gate way for the soul. After prayer i break gently the egg into the glass of water and it started to form shape so as telling its stories.
Raw Egg broken into a glass of water is a divinatory method that is categorized as Scrying. The raw egg and the glass of water is the medium and the interpreter is the channel for the messages of the soul (higher and lower self of the client) whom the Manghihilot have contacted to communicate with.
Each shape that been formed in the glass tell specific stories. Even the way how the egg is brocken tells specific areas of the clients life. Each stories may refer to situations, and each situations may tell the condition of the wellness of the client where the manghihilot must determine which body organs radiating that situation.
Tawas is not just a Divinatory Art that tells a story. Because the story that been told by tawas is your own story which the Manghihilot would channel to locate the areas in your life that needs attention.
“Pagsasala” means filtering and “Panghihila” means pulling. This ritual is also a form of Diagnostic measure using banana leaf. Aside from diagnostic it can be also a mean of cure by leaving the leaves on the part of the body through “tapal”.
Our feet plays an important role in our Physical body by giving us the ability to stand and walk aside from these physical function, it also has a psycho emotional function of helping us to walk our path towards a successful future.
