WACHUMA / SAN PEDRO CEREMONY

ABOUT WUACHUMA:

The cactus (Trichocereus pachanoi), also known as “Wuachuma” or “San Pedro,” has perhaps the most extended history of medicinal plant use in South America. Its ceremonial use dates back almost 3,500 years, and its traditions continue today. The cactus contains several alkaloids, including mescaline, a critical visionary component in peyote, the cactus medicine long used by Native Americans in the Native American Church.

Wachuma is a “high vibration” vegetable energy whose experience, after its consumption, goes through four stages:

1st stage – Physical Body: Wachuma cleanses the stomach and digestive system.

2nd stage – Emotional Body: Wachuma focuses on cleansing the nervous, muscular, and circulatory systems.

3rd stage – Mental Body: Wachuma focuses on clearing the mind and brings a lot of clarity to your process.

4th stage – Spiritual Body: Wachuma focuses on clearing the energy body and the Auric field.

THE WUACHUMA CEREMONY:

We create a loving space and join in celebration to honor ourselves with “Grandfather Wuachuma”, also known as San Pedro. By gracefully sharing this sacred union of the Hearts we will receive the healing teachings and wisdom of this powerful plant medicine.

In this sacred soul connection my Twin brother and I guide you throughout the entire process. We open the journey back to the Heart with a beautiful Hapé ritual. This ceremony serves us to open up our energy field and bring us together to the most present moment. Hapé is a heart opener and allows us to be more centered so we can have a more pleasant experience.

Right after the Hapé ceremony we share our intention from a space of an expansion, thus speaking from the heart and resonating at higher energies that allow for manifestation.

Soon after we receive our first take of San Pedro followed by a guided meditation that takes us to a Journey of the heart. The ceremony is very interactive and guided for the most part. This way the participants are at all times in a process of expansion rather than being distracted by other people’s process and their own minds.

We open the space for a maximum of 15 people because we believe that the intimacy of the ceremony is key to contain the energy and safety of the circle as much as possible.
