9 Symptoms of Incorporation of Preto Velho in Umbanda (real)

Today I’m going to talk about all the symptoms of incorporating Preto Velho into Umbanda. In addition, I will show you how to know if we are incorporating and how involuntary or sleeping incorporation works. So keep reading this article, believe me you will love it!

This is a subject that, no matter how much is said, there will always be many other things to say, doubts and experiences that are different and never unified.

When we speak of incorporation, we imagine that a spirit “enters” our body while the spirit that animates us from birth and long before it, whether withdrawn and put to sleep or only temporarily withdrawn.

This is because it would not be possible for two spirits to occupy the same body and space at the same time, one would then have to leave to make way for the other.

The true explanation of what incorporation is

Incorporation is the approximation of a spirit to your body that connects with your mental and from there they work together.. The medium offering thedevice” and the spirit all its light and knowledge for the practice of charity.

But before I talk about that, I’d like to go back in history a bit, precisely for November 14, 1908, when the medium Zélio Fernandino de Moraes had his first experience of incorporation.

In short, Zélio suffered from some “evils” that were not recognized by the medicine of the time. He was taken to a Kardecist center, where his caboclo performed for the first time.

For Kardecism these were not evolved spirits and the caboclo was invited to withdraw.

However, before leaving, the Caboclo said that some spirits such as those of the Children, Caboclos and the Pretos Velhos also needed to work for the evolution of humanity! And the next day, a new religion was founded in the house of the medium Zélio, Umbanda, and this happened on November 15, 1908.

At that time even for there to be a greater acceptance of mediums, incorporation was done completely unconsciously. So, the medium had no idea what he had done, as it was just “taken“, in a good sense, by the entity.

The first caboclo to appear and give his name was Zélio Caboclo das Sete Encruzilhadas. That’s because there would be no closed path for this caboclo.

And so Umbanda was born!

And that day Umbanda was born, who brought to earth spirits of Children, Pretos Velhos and Caboclos who had nowhere to manifest themselves.

Then came the cults of the Orixás and the mediums began to study more and learn more about the “new” religion.

Today, incorporations are no longer unconscious. Today, the medium is fully conscious and needs to be so that he can learn from his entities! These days, we no longer needlose” the senses and memories so that there is incorporation.

Therefore, 99% of the mediums who work in Umbanda today are aware and know what they are doing. They feel the vibrations and radiations of their entities and work accordingly.

7 Symptoms of Incorporation of Preto Velho in Umbanda

Although it is believed that every Preto Velho was a slave, the truth is that not all Preto Velho is Preto or Velho, and almost none of them were slaves.

At that sad time in our history, slavery, black people didn’t live so long to get old. Few were those who aged after the letter of manumission! So when we talk about this line of work, we are talking about several white, black, young, older people who work in this line by affinity and merit.

1. Bow down

Pretos Velhos in general bow when they are incorporating and already incorporated.

There are two reasons for this:

The first is that it is part of what people are used to to see and not to create any controversy these entities bow down.Second, because the energy of incorporation also starts from the umbilical chakraand by feeling the energy exactly at this point, the medium bends.

So, this is one of the symptoms of the incorporation of the Preto Velho entity. Let’s move on to the next symptom in this article.

2. Slow and heavy steps

the floor of an Velho Preto is slow and very heavythe impression one has is that the medium is carrying a much greater weight than he can bear and that his legs are no longer able to be so agile.

3. They work sitting down

Although there are some Pretos Velhos and Pretas Velhas who work standing up, leaning on a wooden cane, most work sitting on their stools made of wood, simplewithout any kind of luxury, because they are not here for that.

4. Speak low

The way of speaking of an Velho Preto is also a “model” because people are used to the way of speaking of this line, like “suncê, voismicê,”,among others, but it is not necessary to speak like that, if we are talking about evolved spirits we can and should use all their qualities.

But I understand why this still happens, it’s part of what people believe, and to not create any kind of disbelief most mediums use these terms.

But speaking low is a characteristic of Pretos Velhos. They speak quietly and slowly, in no rush or urgency to help people.

Deep down, what they are looking for is the understanding and evolution of each of the consultants.

5. Make the sign of the cross

Some other entities also make the sign of the cross! Although, the Pretos Velhos when they arrive to work, bless the ground by making the sign of the cross with their fingers.

By the way they make the sign of the cross for almost everything. They use it to bless the bench they are going to sit on, to bless the drink they are going to drink, be it coffee or wine.

This is a feature of this beautiful line of work.

6. Snap your fingers

Caboclos do this too, but the Pretos Velhos put one of their hands behind them and snap their fingers, as a way of dispelling the negative energies of people or environments, they do this during the service and after it.

7. Patience

They are patient with both the medium and the sitters.

They know our difficulty in understanding many things. In fact all entities know, but with Pretos Velhos we have the feeling of being in the lap of a grandfather or grandmother who are dear and loving.

These are very simple symptoms that reveal that we are incorporating Preto Velho. Not all people feel the same, and we cannot generalize.

Incorporation of Preto Velho while we are sleeping

Although we are umbanda practitioners in all situations and not just when we are in the terreiro, there is no need for an entity to embody while we are sleeping.

Therefore, if there is a need for the medium to work in spirituality, he will work as a medium and in the company of his entities.

That is, he does not need to incorporate since the entities are with him in spiritualityit can work together with the Preto Velho line or any other if necessary, but without the need for incorporation.

Therefore, if when we sleep we detach ourselves from the body and the spirit goes where it needs to go, we can work in spirit with the lines of Umbanda, any of them you need without incorporation.

So, sleeping embedding doesn’t happen often. In fact, it practically does not occur, because there is no need to do so.

I’m talking not only about Preto Velho, but also about all other entities in Umbanda.

How do I know if I’m really incorporated?

It is likely that this is the biggest doubt for those who work at Umbanda, to know if it is incorporated or not, since today we are mostly aware of it.

Incidentally, this is a fact that keeps many mediums away from Umbanda, those who are responsible and who do not play with spirituality.

For fear of not knowing if it’s them, the mediums, or the entities that are actingend up moving away from religion.

I myself sometimes questioned myself and walked away for fear of not being honest and true both with myself and with entities.

I always joke saying that I don’t want to arrive on the other side and find my entities sitting on a stool with their arms crossed and they ask me “What did I do”. That’s why I always try to be very honest with incorporation.

If it’s possible to give a tip, when you go head banging ask for God’s will to be done and not yours! Ask to be allowed to work in this army of Pai Oxalá and that if that is not your place, that it be removed for the good of all.

Is the incorporation of Preto Velho different from other entities?

No incorporation is the same as another and if it is, something is wrongbecause each entity presents itself in a way and its way of acting also differs as well as its vibration.

So if all entities that you incorporate or if all entities from the house where you work incorporate the same way, there is something very wrong.

Sometimes the approach of an entity can send the same shiver down the back as another entity, but at a given moment this energy and action will transform.

For example: a caboclo he may approach causing a shiver down his back, but then he will kneel, aim an arrow, shout or dance. He will never arrive and sit down without first introducing himself as a caboclo.

Therefore, no incorporation is the same as another. They are all different, regardless of the entity…
