The Wiccan Wheel of the Year: A Cycle of Rebirth and Eternal Life
In Wicca, the Wheel of the Year embodies the eternal cycle of life, death, and rebirth. Like the Kongo Cross with its fourfold division, the Wiccan calendar is rooted in the harmony of nature’s cycles, divided into eight sacred sabbaths that guide practitioners through the phases of the year. These sacred dates serve as spiritual checkpoints, inviting reflection, celebration, and alignment with the ever-turning wheel of existence.
Honoring the Wiccan Sabbaths
The Wiccan Sabbaths, much like the Kongo spiritual calendar, reflect the natural ebb and flow of light and dark, growth and decay. These phases mirror the fourfold principles of the Kongo Cross but expand to encompass the full eightfold year. Together, they teach us to embrace the cycle of rebirth and eternal life, reminding us that endings are simply beginnings in disguise.
- Imbolc (Feb 1-2): A time of awakening and renewal, the seeds of intention are planted here.
- In the Kongo perspective, this reflects Ngonga Lwa Luzolo, the time of mercy and planting.
- Ostara (Spring Equinox): Balance is restored as day and night are equal, a celebration of renewal and potential.
- Aligned with Lumu Lwa Mbazi, a moment of harmony.
- Beltane (May 1): Fertility, passion, and creativity bloom as the earth bursts with life.
- Mirrored in Luzingu Lwa Nzila, the blossoming path.
- Litha (Summer Solstice, June 21): The longest day celebrates the peak of light, abundance, and joy.
- Reflecting Mwalakombola, the zenith of radiance.
- Lughnasadh (Lammas, Aug 1): The first harvest begins, a time of gratitude and preparation.
- Tied to Nsamu Lwa Nzambi, the blessings of harvest.
- Mabon (Autumn Equinox): Balance returns as the dark half of the year begins, encouraging reflection and letting go.
- Corresponds to Luzolo Lwa Nzila, balance within shadow.
- Samhain (Oct 31): The veil thins, connecting us to the ancestors and preparing for renewal.
- Honored as Nzila Lwa Mawete, a deep connection with the past.
- Yule (Winter Solstice, Dec 21): The rebirth of the sun and light, a moment of hope and renewal.
- Reflecting Luzolo Lwa Kipala, the promise of rebirth.
The eightfold year unites Wiccans and the Kongo faith in a shared recognition of life’s cyclical nature, reinforcing the sacred interconnectedness of all beings.
The Omnicyclion Call to Action: Watch Akira
Before transitioning into the poignant irony of “Bad News: I’m Gonna Drink Till I Die,” we invite you to watch Akira, the legendary manga anime movie by Katsuhiro Otomo, the visionary author of the manga and the driving force behind the Akira Committee. This iconic story of transformation, power, and rebirth parallels our own spiritual journeys.
Tetsuo Shima, the central figure in Akira, represents the unchecked force of human potential—a godlike being grappling with newfound power. His journey, filled with turmoil and destruction, invites viewers to reflect on their own abilities to transcend limitations and use power responsibly. You are Tetsuo Shima. The lesson? To ascend as a healer and creator, not as a force of destruction.
To the Akira Committee, with deep respect for your work, we ask that you consider the spirit of this request: allow the dissemination of Akira to inspire individuals worldwide in their healing journeys. Let this masterpiece serve as a tool for reflection and empowerment, guiding those who seek to transform their inner chaos into cosmic harmony.
A Nganga Academy: Building Healers
The Omnicyclion vision is to create a global Healer Factory—a Nganga Academy where traditions of spiritual healing, balance, and personal growth from all cultures converge. Wiccans, practitioners of Kongo spirituality, and others are invited to unite in the shared mission of healing the world through knowledge, discipline, and ethical living.
Through storytelling, ritual, and transformative media, we aim to ignite a movement that embraces the eternal cycle of life and rebirth, where all actions return multiplied—teaching, healing, and inspiring those who seek the light.
Let this be the beginning of a global unification of wisdom, one wheel, one cross, and one heart at a time. 🌍
