The tribes believe no festivities should take place during the sacred month including weddings, eloping and beer festivities.
"November weddings are a big no-no... I would have had a November wedding but I think my parents would have a problem with a November wedding. My parents would have had a heart attack. My grandparents would not have attended," a bride in Harare, Tinashe, told the BBC.
“I used not to believe in certain aspects of our traditional culture. To me these things were just like a joke, but I learnt the hard way when my marriage prematurely collapsed,” Ms Theresa Humba told the Sunday Mail.
“We both thought it was superstition and I got a wake-up call when we could not fix things with my husband and it was too late,” the 26-year-old added.“It had been a year and we still hadn’t had a baby. My husband started philandering and if I asked the reason behind his actions I was verbally and physically abused. When I tried to get assistance from my relatives they all pointed to the mistake I made.”
The superstition does not put everyone off getting married in November those who embrace western culture do not believe it is taboo.
