Medicine of the Fire

Medicine of the Fire

The shamanistic jewellery and tools we create at Reido (Kuripe and Tepi) are both tools for taking the medicine; Rapé (pronounced “hapeh” or “rapay”, ). It is usually made of tobacco powder and various Amazonian medicinal plants, trees, leaves, seeds, and other sacred ingredients that are ground into a fine, aromatic powder.

With Rapé we connect with our energy center, we receive a great blessing from the protective spirit of this plant. By doing this practice we enter a ritual where every prayer, every vibration is manifested and we are faced with the divine eternal presence of this force from the amazon as it cleanses our mind, body and sowing an intention of love and healing.

Used for thousands of years for sacred and spiritual practices, this medicine provides a lot of good benefits. It’s frequently used in spiritual practice by shamans and has spread worldwide for its healing abilities.

You should have an intention in mind when taking Rapé, it might be to clear your mind, answer a question you’ve been asking, or deepen your meditative state. People often feel more grounded during the experience, allowing them to clear up confusions or discomfort about an issue they may have been experiencing as its forcing a release of toxins, mucus, and other unwanted things in the body because Rapé helps purify your system. This strengthens your immunity, helps release physical tension and especially helps with congestion problems.

Thank you for using it with respect, with love and with much prayer since the intention of its use is essential for the great healing and purpose.
