YOU NEED?
The Shaman can raise or lower the patient’s trance at will as needed. To do this he has several elements:
- Mapacho smoke.
- Icaros.
- Flowery water.
- Camphor.
- Lemon.
- Laying of hands.
- The Shacapa.
During the ritual some people vomit, others need to defecate, and others need the Shaman to lay their hands on them in certain places where there is disease. With it their bodies and emotions are healing.
Finally the Shaman will call the participants one by one; you will approach him and he will perform the healing. This consists in cleasing what is left of all negativeness, filling of the body with clean energy and seal it so it does not escape.
The ceremony ends when all the participants have been cleansed and healed.
People will refrain from eating food until 12:00 noon the next day, when the fasting will finish by eating some grated onions with salt and lemon.
- Shacapa: Bunch of bound leaves that the Shaman shakes rhythmically to move the energy and set the rhythms of the ceremony.
- Flowery water: Perfume made from herbs that is used in the Peruvian Amazon to clean people’s energy. Rubbing a little on the face and sniffing it strongly helps to reduce the trance.
- Camphor: Prepared liquid composed of brandy in which camphor has been dissolved. It is used as a protector against bad energies and envy. The Shaman usually sprays the patient’s forehead with it.
- Mareación (Trance): The Ayahuasca produces its energetic rises and falls in the form of waves that arrive and take us into the visions. These waves are called Mareación (Trance).
