Girl Without Nasab & Ningrat Son

The Seven Monthly Ceremony 2

After the flush is complete, Indi is cleaned and self-sufficient. There are still some ceremonies that must be done Indi and Satria as prospective parents. As the request of Rama Bima to carry the Javanese customs in full so that many processions must be done and lived Indi and Satria.

Once Indi has been taken out again, now Indi and Satria will do the procession of Breaking Telor. Indi and Satria face each other now, then there is a customary stylist who gives eggs of village chickens given to Satria. Receiving the egg, Satria was guided to touch the egg to his wife's forehead and stomach. After that, the chicken eggs were broken to the floor. The meaning of this egg rupture procession is to mean that labor will run smoothly.

"Hopefully the delivery will be smooth well, Ms. Ind," whispered Ms. Galuh.

"Aamiin, Mum. Given prayers and blessings also nggih, Mother," replied Indi.

After that, the next procession is to break the janur or lawe. There is a janur looped into the stomach of Indi. Later Satria had to decide the janur. The father-to-be has to decide. The meaning of this procession is still the same as the egg rupture, which is to expect smoothness in labor later. Indi and Satria are also comfortable just following the procession for the sake of the procession. No objection, this is precisely one way they also pried-nguri or preserve Javanese culture that could be eroded because of the increasingly modern times.

The procession is then continued with the bronchi. Different from the previous two processions, brojolan is a procession involving young ivory coconuts carved in images of Kamajaya and Dewi Ratih. The brojolan procession is intended so that the baby can be born without difficulty.

Now will be done procession Pecok Bakal or broken coconut. This procession is an extension of the previous procession. The father-to-be took one of the coconuts with his eyes closed. Coconuts are taken then placed in the flush area, and broken. This is done to estimate the gender of the baby.

Until finally now a dressing ceremony was performed. There are seven types of fabric prepared, seven symbolizing the gestational age of seven months. There are also seven expectations for future babies. Fabric prepared among others Jarik Sidomukti symbolizes Happiness, Jarik Sidoluhur symbolizes Glory, Semen Rama symbolizes that the love of both parents last forever, and the love of both parents lasts forever, Udan Iris symbolizes the presence of prospective babies will be fun for those around him, Chicken Claws symbolize Independence, and Lasem patterned striated Fabric symbolizes Simplicity.

At the time of the 6th cloth, the invited guests will be responded "less suitable ..." and the 7th with "fit."

Following the procession for the sake of procession, Indi and Satria were sometimes timid and laughed together. However, both of them also looked relaxed. Now the procession is continued with the Sale of Cendol. Procession in which prospective fathers and prospective mothers demonstrate selling cendol and rujak. Where prospective fathers protect prospective mothers when selling. Uniquely, the money used is coins from clay or crew.

In this procession Indi and Satria really laughed. Satria's own face turned red, holding back a laugh, but eventually the man kept laughing out of actual embarrassment. Mother Ervita to laugh amusedly at the sight of her daughter-in-law.

"Less flexible nggih, Ms. Ervi," said Bu Galuh.

"It's okay, Mom. Satria is even funny," replied Mother Ervita.

Ending the procession, Indi and Satria cut Tumpeng together. There is one large tumpeng and surrounded by six tumpeng which is much smaller in size. The number seven represents seven months of gestational age. After all the procession was carried out it felt really relieved.

"It's finished" said Rama Bima who looked satisfied and happy.

"Finally," Satria replied.

Indi was also relieved. It is undeniable that there are many processions that are passed. However, Indi and Satria both believe that all processions have good meaning, full of hope for the baby and both parents.

"Together Mr. Bima. In this way, the young also learn and preserve their culture," replied Dad Pandu.

"The goal is indeed that, Mr. Pandu. Not that I'm a colot or anything. Some of these customs and traditions if not done again can be lost. Even so our faith remains in God, Mr. Pandu. Worship, hope, and ask God alone" said Rama Bima.

Dad Pandu nodded his head. Honestly, Dad Pandu doesn't mind. Precisely all this reminds Dad Pandu and Mother Ervita who also do all the traditional procession both when married and seven-monthly ceremony. At that time, Dad Pandu and Mother Ervita also thought it was to preserve Javanese culture only.

After all, the event continued with the Quran Study led by an ustadz. There are Mothers from the Mosque who broke. Indi and Satria are now really solemn to attend the Study event. Many prayers are chanted and expect the future Mother and her future baby to be healthy, safe, and perfect. Indi also guaranteed it in his heart.

"Aamiin, my prayers are with my dear. You are healthy always until delivery. Our two babies are also always healthy and perfect. We will soon be parents to both of our children" said Satria.

"Aamiin .. always accompanied me also well, Mas," Indi replied.

After all the events are over, continue with a photo together. Many photos taken. Indi and Satria were also directed to pose together several times. After that, Satria and Indi gave their greetings to the audience present. Greetings with the audience who wants to go home.

"Done it all, honey. The process is more seven-monthly well, than four-monthly well," Satria said.

"Yes, more, Mas," she replied.

"Capek?" ask Satria again.

"No. Seneng kok can even undergo all the traditional processions," replied Indi.

After everything was finished, then Indi asked permission to change his clothes first. It used to be four months of pregnancy still feels comfortable. Now, after seven months, it feels like the stomach is tight. Fortunately, it was allowed by the parents. Now, Indi is only wearing pregnant pants on her waist wearing rubber and batik shirt only.

"It's over, Indi. Congratulations well. Rama and I pray healthy, congratulations always well. No need to go back and forth Jogjakarta to Solo. Let Rama and Mother alone who nengokin you to Jogja," said Bu Galuh.

"Excite, Mother. If there is a time for our Tengokin and later the time to give birth to friends nggih, Mom," Indi replied.

"Definitely Mbak Indi .. later Rama and Ibu will go to Jogja when Indi Mbak lahiran. I was told his HPL when well, so I can schedule it to Jogja," replied Bu Galuh.

Given the pregnancy of Indi getting bigger, Bu Galuh asked Indi not to go back and forth Jogjakarta-Solo. Later Ibu Galuh and Rama Bima who will often go to Jogja to see Indi and Satria.
