The Mudjadji presents a confusing case of life imitating myth imitating life. They are said to be the embodiment of a tribal rain goddess so powerful that even her state of mind can change the weather. She can send storms to punish enemies or gentle rain to nurture friends. Every year, the Queen exhibits her rain-making powers at Ga-Modjadji in Mpumalanga South Africa, while people watch on. All Queens commit suicide at 60 to make way for new blood. The cycle of the Mudjadji is therefore perpetual. If one is looking for enemies, better find those that do not send storms when they are mad.
