On the Eastern coastline of South Africa, set amongst the sun-drenched foothills of the Amatola Mountains, was a farm, "Umlambo" meaning "place of water". It was on this farm that Zenzile, a child of Africa and member of the "amaXhosa Nation" was born and raised. Zenzi, seven years old, orphaned, swamped by guilt and un-worthiness was spurned by her remaining family, and acutely aware that she was an undesired appendage. But out of her experiences grew a young woman of innate courage and determination; one who would remember the wise words of Umama Onobulumko as they whispered softly through the bushveld, "Zenzi you don't always have to carry around the hard jagged-edged stone, the one that is such a burden and cuts into your hand. At any time you can alter the course of your life, you have the power to choose, to let the stone go and take the smooth, round stone that fits easily in the palm of your hand." Years later Zenzile returns to "Umlambo", in a quest to find healing, and is assisted by the abundant wildlife inherent there.

The Sacred Goddess Labyrinth of Nemetona is open to the public during the week from Monday to Friday and on Saturday mornings.
It is by appointment only and a small donation is required to help with the upkeep of the Labyrinth. Please phone Helen to make a booking.

The labyrinth is situated in a secluded corner of the property, surrounded by shrubs. and trees, and is a place where one can experience solitude and peace. There is no time limit for the visit and, besides walking the labyrinth, participants are welcome to sit undisturbed in the garden where they can listen to the birds, and rest in its stillness.
