SACRED RECIPROCITY
Honoring indigenous stewards of sacred plant medicine.
The concept of Sacred Reciprocity has its origins in many indigenous cultures. Generally, the practice of Sacred Reciprocity acknowledges that there is a mutual exchange of energy that creates harmony and balance amongst all of life, including people, animals, nature, and the entire cosmos, material and spiritual. Sacred Reciprocity is best understood as the heartfelt exchange, gratitude, and acknowledgment for everyone and everything that sustains us. We believe that the mushroom is a sacred being. When communing with our products we suggest application of the act of intention, ritual and chosen practices that connect you to self, the medicine, and community.
Honoring the earth and sacred plants
Indigenous Wisdom and plant medicine is an ancient technology. From an Indigenous perspective, healing is more comprehensive and involves relationships between humans, non-humans, the land, and the cosmos. The idea of a plant teacher is that these plants are in beings. They have agency and intentionality. They are alive. So these plants are like humans in the sense that they have a culture, and they have their own rituals. They have their own kin. They can be capricious, or they can be severe. They can be comforting. They can teach you. They can inspire you.
Offerings to the earth are essential to our integration, offerings that regenerate the soil.
We give back to Mother Earth who birthed these priceless medicines.
The information provided here is only a small representation of the cultural history and sacred use of mushrooms around the world. Indigenous cultures have shepherded these practices in the face of genocide and still fight for representation today.
WHAT IS A ENTHEOGEN? Entheogen is an alternative term for hallucinogen or psychedelic substance, derived from the ancient Greek word, entheos, meaning ‘full of the god, inspired, possessed.’ Defined as a chemical substance, typically of plant origin, that is ingested to produce a Non ordinary state of consciousness for religious or spiritual purposes. Mushrooms are a space holder for your heart, mind, and spirit. They open you up to feel, release and receive new information. This expansion gives space for healing and ultimately creativity to flow through you. Connect with the divine which is really your higher self, you. Psychedelic mushrooms, or magic mushrooms, belong to the genus Psilocybe. These fungi are capable of producing psilocybin, a compound associated with psychedelic effects. The experience is characterized by an altered state of consciousness, including the ability to amplify emotions, alter perceptions of time, space, and reality. When you consume psyiocbin it activates as a space holder for you to feel, release and create. It opens the channel for flow in one's mind and spirit.
