Sienna Amani (born March 31, 1969) is the current Guide of [[religions:zezouism|Zezouism]], regarded as one of the most influential spiritual leaders in [[countries:karti|Karti]]. She was born into a modest family in southern [[countries:karti:cities:meppo|Meppo]], where her parents worked in coal-processing but remained deeply devoted to Zezouic rituals. As a child, Amani was noted for her strict adherence to the Five Dictates of //The Alma Book//; she became something of a local symbol when she famously kept her long hair uncut until well after the prescribed age of 15. She distinguished herself early through study of scripture and oration in local Zenith gatherings, which brought her to the attention of Big Zenith authorities in [[countries:karti:cities:meppo|Meppo]].
Rising swiftly through the ranks, Amani gained recognition during tense times in the 1990s, when economic hardship and debates over the sprouts ritual stirred divisions. Her sermons emphasized “light found in discipline,” appealing both to conservative believers and younger Zezouics questioning tradition. By the mid-2000s she had become a leading figure inside the Big Zenith, advocating for stronger support systems for low-income families struggling with obligatory contributions.
A turning point came during a drought in 2011, when she led relief efforts by mobilizing temple resources beyond state allocations, greatly boosting her credibility. Amid pressure within the faith to modernize, she steadily affirmed core doctrines while presenting them as instruments of social unity. In 2016, after the passing of her predecessor, she was formally installed as Guide of Zezouism—the highest spiritual office.
Her leadership emphasizes harmony between everyday society and Zeo’s “luminous current,” incorporating themes of communal resilience, balanced prosperity, and devotion to holy obligations. Widely respected in Karti, she is seen not only as the guardian of Zezouic thought but also as a unifying figure within a tightly controlled political system. Amani continues to reside in [[countries:karti:cities:meppo|Meppo]], where she oversees the Big Zenith and guides millions of believers who look to her for spiritual direction.
