Usage and Rituals
To use the Vashawá Rapé, approach with reverence and intention. Administer the Rapé using a tepi (pipe for ceremonial administration) or a kuripe (self-administration pipe), focusing on your spiritual and cleansing goals. This sacred snuff is ideal for ceremonial use or personal rituals, facilitating deep healing and spiritual insight. Embrace the sacred energy of the Vashawá Rapé to support your journey of transformation and spiritual awakening.
The Rapé is blown first through the left nostril and then the right, the life and death cycle.
- Put a small amount of Rapé on the palm of your hand.
- Connect to the medicine through the heart, and feel your intentions.
- Fill the pipe (Kuripe) through the longer tube.
- Position the Kuripe: take a deep breath through the mouth and hold.
- Place the longer end of the Kuripe into the left nostril and the other end into the mouth.
- Blow inside the Kuripe pipe with intention.
- Repeat for the right nostril.
Now close your eyes and enjoy your meditation.
Once applied, breathe only from the mouth to prevent the powder from going into the throat. After at least 10 minutes you can blow and clean your nose.
Rapé must be blown into both nostrils. Each nostril represents an energetic current of the body:
The left nostril: The channel of the Moon (receiver: Pingala or Yin). It gives the power of emotions in its pure state, providing the qualities of deep joy, pure love, compassion and artistic abilities. This side is the feminine. The imbalances on this side are emotional attachment, depression, low self-esteem, guilt or laziness.
The right side: The channel of the Sun (emitter: Ida or Yang). It would empower the rational mind, which allows learning and gaining the strength to overcome problems through effort. It is the masculine side. The imbalances of this channel are rigidity, arrogance, excessive strength and pride.”
Storage
Rapé snuff can remain potent for years when kept in a cool, dry, and dark location. To maintain its quality, ensure your rapé is tightly sealed and protected from any form of moisture. It is not recommended to store rapé in the refrigerator as condensation may form inside the container upon removal.
