Learning living and loving to share this undiscovered magic that will reconnect you with your true self.
We dressed up our shining Ayahuasca Medicine Retreat - Ayahuasca Healing Peru, Ayahuasca Retreat, Shaman Healer guest who came and stayed with us all the way from Holland. She loved learning the icaros. In our Shipibo culture, icaros not only sound beautiful, but are visually represented as colorful intricate geometric patterns. Design patterns you will see when your mind expands. When you visit our Shipibo communities, you’ll see these patterns absolutely everywhere, our clothes ,the buildings, everywhere you look. According to Shipibo culture, everything in the universe has its own song,
The singing of these icaro songs helps maintain balance and harmony on our planet, and gives thanks to each master plant for its healing and beauty in masterpiece. We sing icaros often, during Ayahuasca ceremonies, and every night during the blessing time. Icaros help return balance to the subtle yet visible energetic geometric patterns of the person being sung to and cleanses everyone and the space spreading abundance of love and gratefulness. When you close your eyes and see our patterns coming from within you is when you will see what we see and have known for centuries.
As we sing we smoke sacred tobacco to cleanse ourselves.Tobacco cleanses our minds with our sacred smoke that we believe keeps away bad vibes and spirits.It guides us along the path of understanding about the connection with our ancestors who are our teachers. Tobacco is considered a master plant and is used by all shamans because the sacred smoke has the ability of being a conductor of the Icaros. Being purified with tobacco and song connects us deeper to our true selves and to nature. Then we can truly understand the healing messages from the plants. Resulting in the veil being lifted and realizing we are all one. One can only give thanks. picture is of Shaman Sina singing lovely Shipibo icaros.
Icaros are our songs of worship to our sacred healing plants. They are taught to us by the spirits of the plants themselves. Us shaman use them for a myriad of healing applications for many generations during healing ceremonies. We sing them during ceremonies to hold a protected healing space whilst helping participants navigate safely throughout the visionary spirit realms.
