Description
Amazonian Ayahuasca Snuff is a particular variety of snuff named after a sacred plant used in healing ceremonies and spiritual rituals in the Amazon region of Brazil and other South American countries. The word “Ayahuasca” refers to a psychoactive drink made from the mixture of two main plants: the ayahuasca vine (Banisteriopsis caapi) and the leaves of chacruna (Psychotria viridis) or other similar plants that contain the psychoactive substance DMT ( dimethyltryptamine).
Amazonian Ayahuasca snuff does not contain the same combination of ingredients as the ayahuasca beverage, but is made with a mixture of tobacco (Nicotiana spp.) and medicinal herbs, some of which may be plants traditionally associated with ayahuasca, such as Mapacho ( Nicotiana rustica) or chacruna (Psychotria viridis).
This type of snuff is used for both medicinal and ceremonial purposes. From a medicinal point of view, it is believed that Amazonian Ayahuasca snuff has stimulating, purgative and detoxifying properties. Traditionally, it has been used to relieve respiratory ailments, such as colds and nasal congestion, as well as to strengthen the immune system and promote mental clarity.
In the ceremonial context, Amazonian Ayahuasca snuff is used as a tool for spiritual connection and expansion of consciousness. It is believed that its use can facilitate the opening of the mind and access to altered states of consciousness, which can be useful for introspection, emotional and spiritual healing, and the exploration of consciousness.
The application of Ayahuasca snuff involves gently inhaling the powder through a special device called a “Tepi” or “Kuripe”, which is a narrow tube connected to a funnel. This technique allows for precise administration of snuff into the nasal passages.
It is important to keep in mind that, although Amazonian Ayahuasca snuff has a traditional use and medicinal and spiritual properties are attributed to it, its use must be done consciously and respectful of the cultural practices of indigenous communities. Caution and consultation with a healthcare professional is advised before use, especially for those sensitive to tobacco or with pre-existing medical conditions.
