These ambil sticks are very powerful pieces made in prayer. They are made of chontaduro, one of the most protective trees in the Amazon, and one of the hardest woods. The wood represents the masculine energy and the palm seed on top represents the feminine energy. The colors of the string symbolize the union of masculine and feminine, to celebrate the colors and the beauty of life. It also carries the energy of abundance from the seed, and the energy of protection from the chontaduro.
These sticks are very unique because they also have a cover which are perfect for keeping your medicine bag neat and tidy!
They are made by Jhon Fredy Cepeda and his arts collective, Sacha Waira. Jhon is a traditional Guayapo healer and a long time student of Taita Juanito. He is a powerful medicine man and each one of his pieces are charged with the force of the jungle.
Ambil is a plant ally that carries the Divine Masculine, or Father Spirit, and helps to heal the father wound and align the divine masculine within.
Ambil is traditionally consumed with mambe. However, it can also be used on it's own and is a wonderful compliment to a spiritual practice. It is one of our most potent plant medicines and should always be used in utmost prayer and reverence for the sacred Grandfather Spirit.
Place a small amount (lentil size to begin) on the tip of your pinky finger (symbol of humility), while cultivating your intention and prayer. Then apply to the gums, teeth, and tongue., allowing it to slowly dissolve.You can also apply to cuts/wounds as this medicine has strong healing properties (please know it does sting).
Ambil is often used amongst the tribes to clarify and sweeten communication, as it helps us to be more sincere in our dealings with one another and helps us to use intention and awareness in our words.
