CAPTIVATING CAPIZ:A Journey into the Myth!

Here in CAPTIVATING Capiz, a lot of speculations about the existence of aswangs roaming its grounds have been spreading. A lot of aswang stories also surfaced, here's one example but it's a bit short.... so I'll try to be abducted by aswangs and tell you all about it (PALABAUN KU GD) hehe....

It was a rainy night that time. A young expectant mother was sewing a dress for her baby. Suddenly she felt something playing down her leg as if a thread like material. She became aware of a red looking tread. She tried and tried to brush it off, but it was so stubborn that she decided to take the shear and stripped it. As she did it, she suddenly heard a sharp cry out of nowhere. It was then followed by a heavy thud the ground and a flutter of heavy wings. She suddenly realized that her baby's life was almost taken by an aswang.

Myths, Folklore, Superstitious Beliefs and Practices

(Peepz,, I just want you to know that we need to be in the first 20+ results when you search google, we are currently in number 31 so please support us!!!! tnx)

The early Panayanon believed in many gods. Bulalakaw, a bird which looked like a peacock and could cause illness, was said to live in the island's sacred mountain called Madya-as. A chief goddess was believed to reside in the mountain of the nearby island of Negros Occidental. She was called Laon, after whom Mt. Kanlaon is named. Mediators to the gods, also said to be the first priests, were: Bangutbanwa, who prayed for good harvests and an orderly universe; Mangindalon, who interceded for sick persons and prayed for the punishment of enemies; and Soliran and Solian, who performed marriage ceremonies. Manunubo was the good spirit of the sea.

The kama-kama are dwarves living in earth mounds, and are lazy and fun loving. The tamawu/taglugar are spirits that can be either friendly or evil. They live in resplendent palaces that look like mere boulders to the human eye. When they find a human being attractive, they entice the person to join them; this peculiar act of courtship is called yanggaw. The dwindi is a dwarf residing in a mount of earth. The lulid sa bungsud has a big head, but a small torso and limbs. One who disturbs the mound where it resides falls ill. The agta is a very dark, hairy person living in the forest. Although a trickster, it is helpful to people. The amamanhig is a dead person who has returned to life and simply echoes everything that mortals say; it has lost the power to think. Hiwit or barang is a ritual that gives one of the power to inflict pain on an enemy.

CAPIZcapizCAPIZcapizCAPIZcapizCAPIZcapizCAPIZcapizCAPIZ

As we all know (or maybe some of you don't) Captivating Capiz is not only a place for Aswangs but it is also a place where you can eat fresh seafoods(particularly in Roxas City), go to parks, buy souvenirs ;), and meet a lot of awesome people!(like us moderators, yeah you can ask for our numbers..jk ;]).

Capiz was the home of former president Manuel A. Roxas whose son Gerry Roxas was also former senator and whose grandson Manuel A. Roxas II is currently a senator (GRABEh bah.... runs in the family gd yah). Captivating Capiz is "supposedly" known as the aswang province here in the Philippines but what the heck, do you even believe in those rumors? Well I kind of do but... there aren't MuMu's here ;( haha. Roxas City, the capital of Capiz, is also the Seafood Capital of the Philippines. You can taste all kinds of fishes, clams, chuver chuver and crabs here!

Really, for that reason alone, you all should come here! You wont regret it once you eat that so called "Diwal" or Angel Wing.So guys! Please, please visit Captivating Capiz! (and it wouldn't hurt clicking the refresh button a couple if times ;])
