First time experience with aya, veteran psychedelic user
Went into this experience completely open and prepared for the medicine, but soon found out how gullible and naive I was for having booked something with such ignorance and lack of respect for what’s actually out there in the world. In short, I should’ve looked for a more reputable place with more reviews and a more established face.
Honestly the only place I saw this retreat on was reddit, and only could attest to the few reviews here, though limited they may be.
Anyways to the experience, everyone was welcom-y and seemingly hip this type of stuff. All the usual stuff you would expect that goes along with this type of stuff.. but the curtains came down after the second cup.
I was completely centered in the medicine and grounded in my medicine and when the taita and his two witch followers attempted to channel satanic energy through my energy channel. We were all deep in the medicine, the taita had helped me remove many obstacles and spirits, things holding me back, he tried to gain my trust with the medicine and as soon as I opened up to them, they just tried to make me part of their satanic brujeria.
I’m a very adept and trained user of psychedelics, I’ve went to the deepest of ends and know good from evil. They practiced shamanism in the practical way, they removed negative entities and spirits and what not, helped people out of their suffering, but only to turn around and abuse them for their own spiritual fetishizations and gain. I saw demonic goat like god-heads possessing the taita (Colombian shaman) and his two followers just completely allowed him to use them and control them for whatever his wishes were.
The taita also completely controlled some of the other participants. I saw their souls completely controlled by him, his same exact energy being cast from the alter, represented in their same energy signatures. He would do a round of his satanic witchcraft, and then cease after his demonic desires had been sated. There was nothing good going on there. Many people were tested, if they could defend themselves they resisted, if not they they were possessed. I work only with pure energy, I have a pure heart and love for the medicine and doing what’s right, despite my setbacks and obstacles on the path.
Basically they are practitioners of satanism, evil sorcery, black magic, dark energy. They don’t uphold the highest values of the medicine, they don’t believe in God, and the certainly don’t have your best interests in mind. They will abuse you, and use you and your energy to do satanic acts of evil. Please do not go here.
It’s cheap and the medicine is good, but you’re putting youre life on the line if you journey with them. The taita surely stopped working with the medicine long ago. He exploits the weak, abuses the power of the medicine to his own spiritual gain, and most of all his heart isn’t pure. Do not pay these people, do not put your self at risk.

Just finished an aya retreat in Ecuador and want to continue exploring, my next stop is Galápagos. Anyone know a place there?
We are recruiting participants for a study on differences in cognition between psychedelics users and non-users. If you were to take part, you would be required to follow the link to the study that applies to you as there will be separate links for psychedelics users and non-users. There would be a participant information sheet as well as complete a consent form for you to read through. Following this, there would be a questionnaire to complete which will include questions about yourself and your use of psychedelics and other drugs. There would then be a series of tests to complete which measure aspects of brain functioning. In total, the study would take approximately 20 minutes to complete.
Please only participate if you are using a laptop as the experiment will not be able to be accessed on an iPhone or iPad. The experiment will not be able to be accessed using Safari so please use another browser.
The information gathered about you through the study would be kept anonymous and only individuals directly involved in analysing your data would have access to it. You would be free to withdraw your data at any point during the data collection phase without giving a reason. Due to the anonymous nature of the data, it will not be possible for you to withdraw your data following completion of the data collection phase.
You are eligible to participate in this study if:
· You are over 18 years of age.
· Have a good understanding of the English language.
· Have normal-to-corrected vision.
· Have either used psychedelics at least 25 times, but not in the past 4 weeks, or have never used a psychedelic. Specifically, we are interested in use of classical psychedelics, which include psilocybin, ayahuasca, lysergic acid diethylamide (LSD), and dimethyltryptamine (DMT). We are not interested in use of substances that may have psychedelic effects but are not classic psychedelics, such as ketamine, nitrous oxide, MDMA, or cannabis.
· Have never been diagnosed with a mental health condition by a psychiatrist, such as depression or anxiety.
· Have never been diagnosed with a neurological condition. These are conditions which affect the brain, spinal cord, or nerves, such as a brain tumour, dementia, Parkinson’s Disease, or epilepsy.
· Have never had a head injury.
· Have never been diagnosed with a neurodevelopmental condition. These are disorders that involve differences in the development of the brain which influence how the brain functions, such as autism, intellectual disability, or ADHD.

Hi just wanted to let everyone know that I found an organization that offers aya sessions fri-sun. They are called Arizona Yage Assembly. They come up as aya.guide.org on google when you type in they’re name though. They do them frequently in Tucson Arizona and occasionally at Joshua Tree California. Prices seem fair as well. Happy Healing!

Bom dia alegria familia! My friend Inka Inka Yubē asked me to make this gofundme for him and his people. If you would take a moment to read their story I would appreciate it greatly. For those of you who may not know, Brazil has become very influential in my life over the past number of years, spending a lot of time there and getting to know the culture. Two years ago I was blessed with the opportunity to lead a project in the Amazon drilling wells in indigenous villages for their continual access to clean water. Through this process I got to know the rich culture of the jungle and the people that live there. I met Inka Yubē and he invited me to live with his people. I was told I was the first person outside of Brazil to ever visit their village, meeting one another in our common second language. In their village, led by his grandmother, they keep up with their indigenous ways, living off the land, speaking their own native tounge, and making their artisanal good of pottery and weavings. They work hard to protect their rich culture and heritage. They are in need of help because of encroaching outsider destroying what they hold dear. If you feel called to donate or share this fundraiser the Huni Kuin People of Aldeia Segredo do Artesão will be very grateful. Thanks so much.

Icaros are traditional medicine songs used in ceremony for healing. Sometimes they are also called Taki's or simply medicine songs. But what makes icaros and taki's especially unique is that they are songs taught to us by the spirits, and when we sing them properly they can call on and direct the spirits in ceremony. These songs come from the Amazonian and Andean traditions of South America and are especially well known in the Ayahuasca and San Pedro traditions from that region.
Shamans in South America spend many years praying, doing ceremony, and isolating themselves in the wilderness in order to learn these songs. Sometimes the songs are also passed down teacher to student, and sometimes they are even shared with the entire tribe to be sung as a community. They are most often sung to the spirits of nature and can be thought of as a powerful prayer in the form of a song.
In this workshop we will share some background about icaros and how they work, share some live performances of the icaros, and even teach a couple easier songs to the group. This is a great way to learn about traditional tribal ceremonies, to connect with local community and ceremonies, and to start learning your own icaros. The workshop will be led by Travis Bodick who has 18 years of focused ceremonial training as well as 11 years of traditional training in Peru. We will especially focus on learning Shipibo, Quechua, Spanish and English medicine songs.
We will meet in Discovery Park in Seattle for this workshop. Anyone is welcome to attend, and the event is free!
Hope to see you there!
