Huachuma: The Sacred Cactus of Elevation

Discover Huachuma, also known as San Pedro, a revered plant medicine used for thousands of years to purify the body and spirit. This powerful entheogen opens the door to spiritual exploration, offering profound peace, love, and a connection to the cosmos. Prepare for a journey of transcendence and gratitude in a timeless ritual of healing and discovery.

The preparation and use of Huachuma has a religious purpose. This is why today’s  scientists and investigators want to eliminate the wrong names people use and so recognize it  as entheogen plant. The term entheogen is derived from two words of ancient Greek, entheos and genesthai. Entheos translates as «full of god or inspired,» while genesthai means «to come into being.»  When one ingests Huachuma they go on a shamanic flight. Huachuma is a plant  which lets people explore the Spiritual world and it is used to  understand better the world in which we live. The person who takes it feels like floting, the body is weightless, goes into a trance, feeling no tiredness, no pain, some cry of emotion while others fall to their knees with open arms, willing to hug the  cosmos. There is a feeling of immense gratitude for  experiencing infinite peace and love.

The huachuma’s effects begin after 40 minutes and last from 12 to 20 hours. Some throw up as it is a natural part of the cleansing process.
