THE 4 ELEMENTS AND SAN PEDRO RITUAL

ALL DAY


Mother Earth feeds us, cares for us and protects us. The earth supplies us with everything necessary, just as all good mothers care for their children. Humans live within “culture” but we should not forget that essentially it is “nature”. If we break our ties with “nature” our energy and ability to live will diminish and our ability to live is what remains for us in a world in which ideas about our existence predominate. In our civilization humans have broken connections with the earth, we live in big cities without natural elements and we have lost contact with nature.
When we walk barefooted on grass or on a sandy beach we are interacting with the earth, feeling its energy, its electromagnetism. We must remember that we are the earth and ultimately we will become part of it.
Water, an element present in our organism, in blood, and other liquids, is a sacred element on our planet; it is the earth’s blood. The life cycle of water is similar to that of humans and for this reason we should harmonize our bodies with terrestrial water, at least once a year, to avoid physical ailments and cleanse our temple (body) to feel more at peace with ourselves.
Fire is the driving force of the unity with divinity. Fire is the symbol of the soul forever seeking reintegration; it is the synthesis in the transformation of the other three elements: earth, water and air. Fire is associated with the heart and also with the sun; the giver of light which is the symbol of the soul. Fire is present within us in our feelings; fire also represents the sun that gives us warmth and energy.
Air is the breath of life without which we could not survive. We have to be in harmony with the air, we can not a single minute without breathing; air is life.
The San Pedro or Huachuma (name in Quechua) is a sacred Andean plant with a healing function that our mother nature wisely provided to us in order to get to know ourselves in the most profound way.
 When the Spanish arrived in Peru they called it “San Pedro” because they  thought that this sacred plant  opened the door of the sky. Drinking this sacred plant you can achieve  an expansion  of the conscience, in order to connect  you with the nature ,perceiving  the spirit of the plants , trees , rivers , etc realizing  that everything has an spirit  and energy.
Whit   The Huachuma , we can connect  our divine part whish make us understand  and see the things in other way , finding the solutions of our problems and  being better persons.
