Understanding the ghosts that haunt your ancestor lines: Breaking generational Curses
Now when you think about zombies, you think about flesh eating, rotting, smelly corpse. You think about shows like The Walking Dead or other movies where zombies walk about in hoards. They attack the living, sinking them into human flesh. However, there is another interpretation of zombies that we don’t see on television. These zombies are known as disgruntled or displaced spirits. Much like ghost they can haunt homes and entire towns. But unlike ghosts, they can mount and possess the flesh of the individuals they seek to control. So, in this video, we’re going to talk about how these disgruntled spirits can ruin your ancestor lines, and how they bring about generational curses and hexes that can last over several lifetimes.

The process of generational curse breaking
Season Two, episode five of American Gods was probably one of the best episodes of all three seasons. It tells some hard and ugly truths about America’s past and trauma that many people of African descent are still suffering from. The first scene begins with a mangled corpse of someone who looks very much like Essie McGowan. As the scene progresses, we see a man named Will James, also known as Froggy James. He is accused of murder and before he could stand trial, he’s hunted down by a vicious mob. He is then hung in front of thousands of people in the old town of Cairo Illinois. Then, he is shot, dragged, beheaded, his body mutilated, and head placed on a spike. The towns people are bustling with joy, Afterall, justice had been served. However, what these people fail to understand is that they didn’t just kill a man. They created a zombie.
What is a generation curse and generational curse signs?
There are many movies that demonize the zombie making process in Haitian Voodoo. The one movie that immediately comes to mind is The Serpent and the Rainbow. In it, the main character is drugged and then buried alive. Again, with the sensationalism. The movie’s jobs was to get cheap thrills and scares and not to educate the public about Haitian Vodun. If they were educated, they would have understood that there was an entire council of elders who determined if someone was going to be zombified. The accused would be allowed to stand trial to plead his case, while those who he wronged would be allowed to testify. In many cases, the council would agree on a lesser punishment. However, in very rare and extreme cases, the accused would be sentenced to become a zombie.
Zombification in Haiti and Zombies in Haiti
The zombification process was all about inducing a cationic state with herbal medicines and concoctions. The accused would then be buried alive, rituals would be performed, and once the entire process was over, the zombie would rise. The zombie was sentenced to an afterlife of slavery, where his soul was imprisoned, and his body would be controlled and manipulated by his master. He would serve his sentence by performing various tasks at his master’s behest such as haunting, torturing, and tormenting. The zombie would work to pay off his debts in the hopes of redemption and resurrection. Now, the zombification process creates a huge problem, not just for the family, but also for the town within itself. In other videos, I talk about how we get a great deal of ashé from ancestral lines. And if our ancestral lines are weakened, meaning that we lose spirit guides, ancestors, and daimons, our ability to get the ashe to conduct magic and manifesting is also hindered. So, a zombie would work as a slave only temporarily, and thus would be redeemed to an enlightened being once his sentenced was served.

Since the African elders no longer control the zombification process. Many of these disgruntled and distressed spirits or daimons are running free, wreaking havoc and causing distress throughout entire towns, villages, and down generational lines. We can see this happening with Froggy James, a distressed spirit who haunts the people of Cairo. Ibis believes that Froggy James is filled with self-hate and inner loathing. Besides, it was his people who watched him burn and did absolutely nothing. However, it is Mr. Nancy who accuses Ibis and Anubis of controlling this spirit. After all, both are very old and gifted magician and have a grave understanding of the dead and how to manipulate lost souls. They both understand that a very skilled sorcery can control spirits, by getting them to do their bidding, and to even kill and maim others at their master’s behest. And evil sorcerers are always looking for more power, more zombies to acquire, and towns people to possess.

American Gods is incredibly powerful, because it shows us, the Ways of the Dead. It sends a cryptic but profound message about the generational curses that people of colored have suffered all throughout the United States. Afterall, the zombification process sounds a lot like our prison system. A system that is overflowing with African American males who are incarcerated at much higher rates than their American counterparts. It can also be metaphorical for generational poverty, recidivism, the destruction of the black family, and the loss of hope and faith in our religious communities. However, the show runners make a great point of bringing all of these problems to the light when Froggy James takes possession of Shadow Moon. Again, this scene is alluding to the fact that many of us carry the pain and memories of our ancestors. And the only way to release the pain is to bring their stories and struggles to the light. Shadow Moon is then tasked with carrying Froggy James’ burden. His burden of pain, of shame, of self-hate, of cruelty, and unjust violence.

Now, here’s where it gets really deep. This whole seen of Shadow Moon walking about to the alter to release Froggy James’ burden all takes place in a church. And that is all by design. For one, it was Jesus Christ who died for all of our sins. He carried the burden of all the sinners and as a result he nearly died in the process. In this last scene, Shadow Moon is doing exactly same thing. Only, he is releasing the burden of Froggy James and breaking the generational curses that have plagued the town of Cairo for over a century. Afterall, the Ways of the Dead is not only about death, but also rebirth and resurrection. And this is what the Egyptian god of the dead Anubis represents. And this is probably way you see him, and all the distressed spirits of Cairo towards the end of this episode.
Now I believe that many of us are like Shadow Moon. We fail to realize our power and as a result, continue to carry the burden, distress, and pain of our ancestors. However, once we start to awaken, and start understanding the power of African gods and reconnect with our ancestors. We can then begin to clean our ancestral lines and break those generational curses and hexes for good.
So, what do you guys think? Do you think that Shadow Moon was acting as the Messiah in Cairo? Do you think that he was able to lift the curse of the townspeople of Cairo? Please sound off in the comments below. And also, if you like this video, give me a thumbs up, a share, and grab your free copy of my book, Phantom’s row.
Generational curses may involve ghosts or zombies who are haunting your ancestral line.
