The fertility of a woman in African culture is part of her worth to the tribe. This thinking originates from a time when tribes relied on their ability to hunt, gather food and live in harmony. A good child-bearing woman would yield better numbers and assist in the upbringing of strong healthy hunters, and fertile women to bear their offspring. Today, fertility is still regarded highly, but the needs of modern tribes have changed. “Fertility Spirit” shows a young woman focusing and dreaming about children. As we know, the way to gain anything we desire, is to apply our own thoughts to the outcome extensively and with good intent. The fertility Spirit blesses those that acknowledge its presence and who are reminded that life begins in our thoughts.
