The Azande believe in the existence of a supernatural world where magical forces can have an impact on the natural world. Witchcraft, or the ability to harm others through magical means, is believed to be a common occurrence among the Azande. In Azande society, witchcraft is seen as a causative factor for various misfortunes and illnesses. If someone falls ill or suffers from bad luck, it is often attributed to the work of a witch. The Azande believe that witches have the power to manipulate spiritual forces and cause harm to others.

Witchcraf orsles and magc among the azandw

It is believed to have the power to influence events and bring about desired outcomes. Azande people often use magical rituals and charms to protect themselves from harm or to bring good fortune. Magic is also often used to heal illnesses or protect against evil spirits. The Azande have complex beliefs surrounding witchcraft and magic, and they have developed various rituals and practices to deal with these forces. One such practice is the "poison oracle," where a substance is administered to a chicken, and the outcome determines whether or not someone is a witch. This practice reflects the Azande's belief that witchcraft is an inheritable trait. Despite their belief in witchcraft and magic, the Azande also recognize the role of natural causes in bringing about misfortunes and illnesses. They believe that natural events can act as triggers for witchcraft, making individuals vulnerable to the influence of witches. The Azande have a dualistic view of the world, where both natural and supernatural forces coexist and interact with each other. In summary, witchcraft and magic are deeply ingrained in the beliefs and practices of the Azande people. Witchcraft is seen as a malevolent force, while magic is viewed as a means to influence events and protect against harm. The Azande have developed rituals and practices to deal with these forces and maintain a balance between the natural and supernatural realms..
