It is the Toad of Sonora Mexico, the Bufo Alvarius, which when soaked in the form of a crystallized pipe or rap\u00e9, causes torrid alterations of perception that can last from five to fifteen minutes, even hours. This substance generates ontological perspective changes followed by an abrupt return to the ordinary state of consciousness, which can be highly medicinal and therapeutic.<\/p>\n

THE JAGUAR<\/h3>\n

For the Mayans and other Mesoamerican shamanic communities, the jaguar or Balam is considered an animal of sacred power and of great respect for its infinite qualities. It symbolizes power, strength, life and fertility. In fact, it is the largest cat in America. His vision is privileged, both during the day and at night, a fundamental quality of every shaman, and precisely because of his nocturnal activity, he is associated as a nocturnal traveler from the Underworld who helps to make the transition to the afterlife. For this reason, he pairs up with the shaman, his human colleague. The Jaguar is a master of shamans, and both are leaders of their community.<\/p>\n

THE SCORPION<\/h3>\n

The symbolism of the scorpion is very strong in many shamanic communities around the world and in most of them, it is considered an omen. <\/i><\/b>Its deadly and dangerous quality that hides its poison in its tail, in addition to its ability to resist the harshest conditions of life, makes it one of the most important power animals in shamanic cosmology. It symbolizes passion, dominance, defense, transformation, rebirth, and ardor.<\/p>\n
