All of my sacred tools are handmade by Latin American artisans and carry spirit and powerful energy to assist you on your path. 
 
An absolutely amazing solid Bone Tepi with Serpents. The head of the creature inside one of the serpents is something that is found depicted in many Inkan ancient sites. It is unknown exactly what it is. The Serpent connects us to the spirit of this divine guardian of the South. Serpent teaches us how to flow, to be flexible and adaptive. She shows us how to shed the past and let go of what no longer serves us in order to reveal our true divine essence. Mama serpent is a symbol of death and rebirth. She represents healing, regeneration, transformation, and change. She is also connected with the energies of the Earth and the life force and primal energy. The Serpent also represents Ayahuasca - the mother of all Earth medicines. The entire body of the Tepi is made from animal bone which gives strength and protection. It is also a symbol of respect and gratitude to the animal kingdom
 
The tool we use to serve Rapé is just as important as the Rapé itself. Each Tepi and Kuripe in my shop is handmade by Peruvian or Brazilian craftsmen with materials and elements that have unique properties and qualities to assist in our healing practices. The tool and the Rapé join forces and work as a team. It is important to understand that we too are medicine and part of the team that comes together when working with sacred plants. We have to look after ourselves as such if we want to lift ourselves and those around us higher. We have to do the work. The plants aren't there to do it for us. They are our teachers and guides, but what matters most, is how we apply the gifts they bestow upon us to our everyday lives.
