Comes with a sterling silver chain.
Ayahuasca- Banisteriopsis caapi
Banisteriopsis caapi (commonly known as Ayahuasca) is considered in Amazonian mythology the Mother of all plant medicines, and the Grandmother.
It is the plant you communicate with to learn the wisdom of all plants. This is why it holds such a special place in the shamanic realms, and why I wanted to work with it for the spirit element.
The indigenous tribes of Peruvian Amazon believed that Ayahuasca was a plant from which humanity emerged. Peruvian shamans call the plant spirit within the vine ‘Abuela Ayahuasca,’ or Grandmother Ayahuasca.
There is a profound history and lore that surrounds Ayahuasca. She is used as a wise teacher and healer, with many communing with her in higher altered states, returning changed with a deeper appreciation and connection to the greater world.
I wanted to share this plant because it is a powerful nootropic plant that works in the realm of spirit.
I believe that all plants can be sat with in quiet contemplation, meditation and ceremony without the need to consume or burn them, though that’s okay too if you’re called.
I think we have this belief that only certain plants can open you up, or give insights to the higher realms, but your mint growing on the window sill holds just as much insight and wisdom as the know sacred plants.
Different plants growing under different elemental, planetary conditioning will share their wisdom in very different ways. Some more subtle than others.
*I am very lucky to know of an Ayahuasca plant that grows locally, so am able to sit in meditation with her when ever I feel guided. I asked her permission before removing her leaf and asked if I was able to make castings before doing so.
Chrysocolla malachite
This stone is a powerhouse of epic proportions.
If you separated the stone qualities, Malachite is a clearing stone - clearing away old patterns, programs, and pain in the body.
She makes us aware of our pathways of healing or growth, then powerfully delivers awareness of that which blocks us. Malachite can find the seed of an illness or disharmony and then bring it to the surface for healing. She helps to clear away self-limitations and attachments to the past; she is the stone of courage.
Chrysocolla holds the most feminine frequency there is. She teaches you mastery of the feminine path of power; embodied wisdom, compassion, and stillness. Whenever she comes into your life, it's to help bring awareness to your feminine side and pathways of growth. It may be possible that you have developed a dependence on the masculine methods of living and is urging you to step back into yourself; to trust and feel that which really resides in you, as all change and healing start from within.
I feel that when the two are present together, they clear away the old archetype of wounding, ancestral pain, trauma and old-patterning. Bringing peace into your heart, allowing you to embody your highest wisdom with renewed strength and courage.
