Dreams and their traditional Zulu definitions play an important role in some people’s lives. They can be categorized into lucky dreams, warning dreams, bad luck dreams or ancestoral calling dreams, to mention the few. Here are some examples:
- Lucky dream: If you dream of money, silver coins and bank notes it means something good is coming your way; a bronze coin can mean shortage of money
- Warning dream: If you dream of a dog biting you, you have to watch out for an enemy
- Ancestral related: If you dream of a red cock it means your ancestors are contacting you and you may need to do perform a certain ritual

JUST LEARN A LITTLE MORE ABOUT THIS GREAT CLAN OF ABAKWA MSANE/MSANI
ABOUT ABAKWA MSANE/MSANI
The people of Msane are direct descendants of King Nxaba ka Mbhekane, son of Sontuli Msane. They originated far beyond Hluhluwe, and as far as the emThekwini Mount, and they spread all over the country.
Abakwa Msane(The people of Msane) were active and naturally creative, that they planted their purple-grained maize(u Gidigidi) with their wooden hoes and possessed not even a weapon wherewith to slay each other. And yet, than their king Nxaba Msane, none was more bellicose, and of doughty warrious, none more renowned in Shaka’s Army, than was Mgobhozi Msane(Father of Nongqiwu). This was paragon of prowess, Mgobhozi ovela-entabeni(Mgobhozi who comes over the hill)
As years progressed, the Msanes grew more cultured and civilized. Certain enterprising smith with Shabangos(who afterwards ran off with Nxaba)as their head, journeyed down from Nquthu district
and profitable business in assegais and hoes, so much sothat in course of time, by trade increase and natural multiplication. They became quite a seemly clan, proudly dubbed themselves abakwa Bukhosini(They of Mr. Right Royal Blood) by nature and in their own rights. They are currently not even one traditional leader that is recognized as Chief, but the process is still underway to retain and claim back the Msane Chieftainship that was predudiced by white Natal Colonial Government to another clan because of Ntelezi Msane, the great headman of Izinkumbi Ezimfece, who was against the law of Poll Tax that was imposed to native males at the South Coast, where first of the traditional great Chief from Msane Clan, Khothweni settled. Some part of about 2345 hacters of the land has been retained to the Msanes ………(still continues)18/09/2012.
