Rapé is made of Mapacho, a sacred species of Tobacco from the jungle (Nicotiana rustica), and ashes of other sacred plants from the jungle.
Tobacco is known as the "Master Plant", or "Father of all Plants", in many indigenous cultures, including those native to the jungles of Peru.
Tobacco can balance all energies and helps bring oneself back to their center. Tobacco protects and gives oneself inner security. Tobacco, with all its power, demands reverence and respect. When given, Tobacco is a powerful ally and amazing healing plant.
The use of tobacco as a sacred plant dates back to ancient times. In the Amazon rainforest, Rapé medicine has been used by indigenous groups such as the Yawana, Matse, and Huni Kuin for spiritual and medicinal purposes.
Rapé connects us to the spirit world and can be used for healing physical, emotional, and spiritual ailments.
Rapé decalcifies the third eye and scans the body for blockages and energetic misalignment. It can be extremely beneficial for opening the Heart and creating clarity—it softens the ego and allows you to listen to your higher self.
The effects of Rapé also include a sense of grounding, clarity, and heightened awareness. Many people feel a solid connection to the earth and their inner wisdom.
