How to give back to Mother Earth | The School of Shamanic Initiation
Pachamama means the Mother in Time and Space (Space -Time) honored by our ancestors in South America. In the Andes, it is believed that Pachamama can take human form, just as she does in nature.
Pachamama is much more than a simple deity. She represents Mother, abundance and fertility of the land in South America. Pachamama can bestow prosperity or famine upon her people depending on how she is treated by them. In order to receive good fortune from Pachamama , you must make offerings. The offering should be made with respect and gratitude for what we have been given without asking anything else in return. If our ancestors showed their love towards pachamama this way, why not to show respect today!
For example, a ceremony can begins with a cup of coca tea and a piece of bread blessed by a priest or spiritual leader. The ritual follows with sharing food and offering fruits to Mother Earth before performing ceremonial dances.
