Abstract

This study aims to explore the rituals, customs, and taboos that have become traditional practices among the people of Pabuaran Wetan. These rituals, customs, and taboos associated with childbirth have long been established as part of the community’s cultural heritage and are routinely practiced. They are believed to have been passed down from generation to generation since the time of their ancestors. However, with the progression of time and modernization, many members of the Pabuaran Wetan community have begun to abandon some of these childbirth-related traditions. The primary purpose of these rituals is to seek divine assistance from God Almighty, in hopes of easing the childbirth process. Meanwhile, the taboos observed by pregnant women approaching labor are intended to prevent undesirable events from occurring to the unborn child and to ensure a safe delivery for the mother.This research was conducted in the Pabuaran Wetan area, located in Cirebon Regency, and focuses on the subject: “Traditional Practices, Rituals, and Taboos of Pregnant Women During Labor.” Data collection techniques used in this study included focus group discussions, direct observation, documentation, and interviews with key informants who are experts in their respective fields.The findings of this research are expected to provide valuable insights into the traditional practices still observed by the Pabuaran Wetan community during the childbirth period and contribute to the preservation and understanding of local cultural heritage.

Abstract

This field study aims to explore information about the local tradition of wesuhi and how it relates to health aspects. The field study was conducted in Jangga Village, Indramayu Regency, with village officials, traditional healers, and village midwives as sources of information. Data was collected through interviews with all informants and documentation studies. The results of the study show that the wesuhi tradition is a series of rituals involving washing the hands and feet, intended to purify or cleanse oneself from major impurities. It is performed in conjunction with the nyukur tradition. The timing is divided into two periods: on the 35th day for female infants and the 40th day for male infants. This tradition involves several key figures, such as the paraji, midwife, husband, family, or individuals who handled the mother's blood during childbirth. First, the mother performs the wesuhi ritual for her husband, midwife, and family. Subsequently, the mother is bathed under the guidance of the paraji. The artifacts needed include dringo, bengle, garlic, rice, and seven types of flowers, which are believed to replace the unpleasant odor of the postpartum mother with a fragrant and pleasant scent. The wesuhi tradition holds several local wisdom values, including religious values such as devotion to Allah SWT, social values or maintaining relationships, and personal hygiene values. This tradition needs to be preserved by the community, as the values of wisdom embedded in it are beneficial for shaping the character of the Jangga village community. The Wesuhi tradition can also enhance community awareness to become better in terms of religion, socializing, and paying more attention to personal hygiene
