Unleash the Mystique of Shiwawaku Cumaru (Dipteryx odorata) Embrace the Power of Enchantment With this Extaordinary aromatic Pusanga. 30ml


Behold the awe-inspiring allure of Cumaru, the mighty Shiwawaku, with this incredible pusanga, offered exclusively by Casa del Colibri. Very strong and powerful, an aromatic pusanga to be engaged sparingly.


In the heart of the rainforest, this giant stands tall, commanding attention with its robust energy. Are you ready to harness its potent, energetic shield, providing unwavering protection for those attuned to the world's unseen forces?


According to the wisdom of the Huni Kuin indigenous people, shiwawaku is more than a tree – she is a living testament to endurance, earning the title of the "everlasting wood". They affirm its authenticity, as solid and unwavering as its essence. As whispers of many enchantments swirl around this arboreal sentinel, its inner strength resonates with spiritual fortification, a shield against the malevolent gaze of the evil eye.


Basking in the embrace of sunlight, this leafy giant reaches towering heights of 120 feet, an arboreal testament to resilience. Aged beyond the span of centuries, her essence carries the weight of time and wisdom, rooted in the fertile soil of ancient tradition.


Step into the realm of Shihuahuaco's feminine spirit, known as "Shiwawaku",, Cumaru is very distinct from the vigorously masculine Shihuahuaco (Dipteryx micrantha) counterpart. She dances with the breeze, embodying a different facet of nature's essence, her abundance and accessibility, and often substituted for the Shihuahuaco.


Dipteryx odorata, affectionately called Shiwawaku, Cumaru or Iron Cumaru, aptly named for its unyielding wood, channels its energy toward the lower chakras, fostering a profound sense of grounding. This pusanga promises an adventure into the heart of enchanted protection.


Are you ready to embrace the enigmatic embrace of Shiwawaku and experience the essence that weaves ancient wisdom with modern mystique.



Plant Spirit Medicine is a form of spiritual remediation rooted in ancestral traditions that combines classical Chinese~ Five Element theory, the indigenous practice of calling upon plant spirits, and the Animism religion (the attribution of a soul to plants, inanimate objects, and natural phenomena.) Plant Spirit Medicine recognizes that like humans, plants have spirit, and their spirit has the unique capacity to touch and rebuild the spirit of a human being and restore us to our own essential nature. Our ancestors lived this way–-an existence in which there is no illusion of separation from nature. They would make friends with the spirits of nature and call upon them for restoration and other everyday affairs. This ancient practice was remembered, revitalized, and reintroduced by the late teacher and healer, Eliot Cowan, and has proven to be as effective in today’s world as in times past.

Modern people are once again turning to plants for guidance and for their ability to regenerate spirit. (This is not a metaphysical practice).
