The coolest cats walk around Venice, CA. People passing through as they journey around the world pursuing some worldy or otherworldly craft.....
And so it goes, in an RV on the corner, somewhere between Snapchat and the ocean, we create in a group of six or seven. Strumming and crying and dancing and drumming and singing and healing.
Azul, shaman, administered Rapé to Brandon, a nomadic sax player, through the nostril....Rapé is a healing ritual from the Amazon, specifically tribes from Brazil's rainforest.
Brandon, shrouds himself in a sleeping bag and sways back and forth as his right and left brain hold hands. His thoughts are slow and precise. He is able, in this space, to weave new programming, in a higher frequency than before...if he chooses.
Meanwhile, Victoria sings and strums a rendition of Aaliyah's, "Are You That Somebody." Izzy is on the drumms.... Im on my phone...telling you...
Inside the RV. A bag of freshly cut Lavender at the door. Candles, and sage, and palo santo burn liberated. A surf board. A bunch of art and instruments. Food made from plants....you know hippie shit.
They're all signing up for STEEMIT y'all!
On Rapé:
"A typical Rapé ceremony involves a mutual administration by two persons. The Rapé is blown high up into the nostrils with a pipe made from bamboo or bone. The intense blow immediately focuses the mind, stops the chattering, and opens the entire freed mindspace for your intentions. Furthermore, this helps releasing emotional, physical, and spiritual illnesses and eases negativity and confusion, enabling a thorough grounding of the mind. Likewise, shamans use Rapé to re-align with their energy channels and with their higher self, and to intensify their connection with the world and the universe. In addition, Rapé paves the way for detoxifying the body and cleans out all excess mucus, toxins, and bacteria, thereby, assisting in fighting colds and snuffles. Moreover, Rapé stimulates the mind with its nicotinic content that in turn releases a.o. epinephrine, acetylcholine, and dopamine, supporting an increased focus, presence, and intuition. Interestingly, their are many rumours that Rapé could decalcify the pineal gland(1), which is involved in melatonin secretion, circadian time perception, and drug metabolism." https://katukina.com/doc/rape
