Like the serpent shedding its skin, the experience explores the release of old layers through handcrafted, artisanal preparations:
• Cacao Body Scrub gently exfoliates the skin while grounding the body through the rich texture and scent of cacao.
• Aloe Vera Face Mask soothes and hydrates the skin. As the mask dries, natural earth paints and handmade crowns woven from leaves and flowers become part of the ritual, awakening a playful and primal connection with the jungle.
• Rosemary Hair Serum deeply nourishes the roots and hair.
Adorned with earth paints, leaves, and flowers, the group moves toward the water’s edge in a traditional Amazonian snake dance, weaving together as stagnant energy begins to loosen.
At the wild river, flower offerings honor the spirit of the fresh water. Earth, paint, and the remnants of old skin are washed away in the current. An optional Ortiga treatment using stinging nettle offers a strong sensory awakening before the final blessing.
Throughout the gathering, fresh herbs and flowers are crushed and infused in water with songs and intention. As participants emerge from the river, the herbal water is poured over the body in a final floral bath, sealing the ritual and marking the arrival of renewed skin.
The current carries away what has been released. The river, the herbs, and the surrounding jungle create space for renewal, presence, and a deeper connection with the living land.
Space is limited for this intimate gathering. Registration is available through PachaMama.
