OUR SHAMANS
We work with a team of expert shamans who will be chosen according to the specific needs of our group. Among them are:
Don Emisael
A Maestro Esperitista and Palero Ayahuascero, don Emisael is a Shipibo shaman who was abducted by rubber barons to work in their plantations when he was a child. Through his experiences in the jungle and his work with shamans from many different traditions, he has developed an expert knowledge of plant teachers (plantas ensenanantes), vines (sogas), and perfumes like camalonga, agua de florida, and cananga, all of which have specific spiritual effects for “changing one’s luck” for the better. Don Emisael has studied with the shamans of the Shimaco, Bora, and Cocama tribes and knows the icaros of birds, plants, and waters.
Don Mariano
From the age of 15, don Mariano dieted many different palo maestros and plantas maestros (‘teacher trees’ and ‘teacher plants’). His icaros carry a beauty, sweetness, and relentless power that many find unparalleled in their ability to transform and transport the listener to other worlds of healing.
Don Cesar
A Cocama shaman, don Cesar receives and sings his icaros in a mixture of Spanish and Quechua, the ancient Peruvian language. He is a master of the songs of many different plants and power places.
