The Journey Home
Ten thousand miles.
That’s how far Gogo Gretchen Crilly McKay traveled, from California to Eswatini, following dreams that whispered of her ancestors.
What she found there was not just lineage, but calling. Through initiation in the ancient healing traditions of Southern Africa, she became a Gogo, a spiritual elder trained in the sacred art of bone divination.
Watch her story and her journey that awakened her ancestral calling.
The Bones Speak
In this sacred tradition, the bones are not tools. They are living beings that carry spirit, memory, and message. When they are cast, they speak through their positions and relationships, revealing guidance from the Ancestors.
Watch Gogo explain how the bones are living beings and what they teach us.
What You May Experience
A session of clarity and calm. A bone reading with Gogo Gretchen is a private and compassionate experience grounded in ancestral wisdom. You will sit in a quiet and respectful space as the bones are cast and the Ancestors are invited to speak. Each piece (bone, shell, stone, or bead) lands with intention, revealing patterns that touch every part of your life.
A reading may uncover:
-
The root causes of repeating challenges
-
Spiritual contracts or ancestral ties
-
Energetic imbalances ready to be healed
-
Clear paths toward peace and understanding
You will leave with insight and a sense of reconnection to your own wisdom and to those who came before you.
An Invitation to Remember
Bone reading is more than a way to seek answers. It is a ceremony of remembering the wisdom that has always lived inside you. Through this sacred practice, you rediscover the voice of your Ancestors and the truth that guides your path.

FAQs
DISCLAIMER: Bone reading is a traditional divination practice, not fortune-telling or prediction of specific future events. This is spiritual guidance, not professional advice. Readings should not replace medical, legal, financial, or mental health consultation.
What is African Bone Reading?
African Bone Reading, also called bone throwing or bone casting, uses a collection of bones, shells, and symbolic objects thrown onto a surface. Meaning is derived from where pieces land and their relationships to each other. This practice comes from indigenous African traditions, particularly Southern African sangoma practice. The shaman accesses ancestral knowledge to interpret the patterns and provide guidance.
How is bone reading different from tarot?
Tarot uses a fixed system of 78 cards with specific imagery and meanings. Bone reading uses a unique collection of objects that may be personal to the practitioner and often includes items from the natural world. In tarot, cards are drawn and placed in positions. In bone reading, objects are cast and their physical positions relative to each other create meaning. Bone reading requires specific cultural initiation and channels ancestral wisdom through the shaman.
Can a bone reading predict my future?
Authentic practitioners do not claim to predict specific future events. The future is shaped by choices you and others make. What divination reveals are patterns, tendencies, influences, and potential trajectories based on current energies. A reading might show you are at a crossroads, illuminate what is blocking you, or suggest qualities to cultivate. Be wary of practitioners who make specific predictions.
