Ajos Dieta
Ajos is a preparation traditionally used for protection from malevolent spirits, for cleansing evil, for protecting the shamanic materials and well being of the shaman before and after treatments he offers. In traditional Amazonian shamanism in the Mestizo (ie Spanish/Quechua combination as opposed to Q'uero, Andean, Shipibo) tradition, Ajos is used daily as a topical application much like the Agua de Florida, or flower waters, Thymolina or other protective tinctures.
My Maestro, Don Alberto Torres Davilla, from the lineage of Don Julio Llerena Pinedo, uses Ajos and Mapacho (tobacco Rustica, a shamanic jungle blend) to cleanse and protect himself. Don Alberto is known to be an undefeated shaman in his medicine work where evil and/or malevolent spirits are concerned. He taught us to always prepare our bodies with ajos and tobacco before working on others for protection. I will go in to the properties of the Ajos and Mapacho tobacco a little later, but for now understand this: tobacco smoke is quite tabu and because we lead a middle earth existence, it probably wouldn't be easy for many of us to douse ourselves in smoke and a pungent tincture of Ajos after ever interaction we have in the healing or protective realm! For this reason, I have been led to lead us diet a unique combination of the Ajos tincture,with added Mugwort, Mapacho tobacco, camalonga and purple flowers. (some of the more experienced dieters will have Shiwawaku,a powerful medicinal tree essence from Mimi of Sacred Essences, added) All these plants teach about spiritual discernment and protection. The blend in this tincture is a powerful one so be sure you are truly ready before you begin it. This is a dieta for people serious about serving humanity according to the wisdom of the plants to heal and in order to do this well, it will require you looking at all your own least favorite issues right in the face which will be powerful in showing you what it is about dealing with others that presents challenges, or less than harmonious outcomes for you. It is my intention to oversee this diet in order to launch more people on the planet to do the work of health and wellness, to create teachers and innovaters, shamans and people brave enough to create their own healing modalities.
As many of you now know, we diet the plants into our bodies so that they become part of our structure. Because we cannot always use shamanic topical preparations on our outsides, such as perfume, or ajos in public places, how much better and efficient for us to have the protective and discerning plants inside us as part of our energetic geometry, an automatic built in tool, helping us make decisions which will not only help us heal and straighten others, but also protect ourselves and our own energetic bodies, hearts and minds as we work. To my knowlegde, Ajos is not usually dieted, the spirits have led me to this dieta after recognising that many excellent shamans and their families are repeatedly, and often ill, sometimes seriously, often unclear and confused outside of their work in the shamanic space.
It is my intention to create strength in our personal structures with this dieta's powerful medicine and teaching in order to avoid some of these shamanic pitfalls. Often, the longer a shaman works without protection or fails to look at his/her own shortcomings, the more afflictions get woven into his or her life. This is not always the case of course but, because I am teaching you from my experience there are some realities I know which are often overlooked or mistaken as other things. Over the course of my almost 8 years of experience in plant medicine shamanism, I have tracked the effects of very real spiritual battles where the shaman assisted in the healing clearing of people overcoming trauma, illness etc. As a result of this, I have seen over and over again, very good, previously clear, energetic, intuitive, gifted shamans get their sharpness and well being lost in a myriad of spirits which come to take residence within them only because no one taught them about, or they don't believe in the need for cleansing, clearing or protection. Ajos will be a powerful ally in taking care of this. There is much ego work to do in this dieta as we must look at ourselves first, before we identify spiritual threat in another so please direct attention inward first, always. When we heal another we are healing that part of ourselves first, this is the rule of thumb in this tradition of shamanism.
Dieta Instructions
Refer to Osha instructions re: dietary restrictions, they are exactly the same except for the sex part. This is a NO sex diet, including with self.
This dieta will be better with as much stillness as possible.
Take 2 drops each day at a specified time in the evening (if possible) and perhaps mix with a little water so you can sit with the tincture, the medicine and listen, be with this mixture with stillness, listening deeply. Take the brew internally for 7 days and on the morning of the 8th day take the salt in the mouth, swish for as close to 60 seconds as you can then spit. From here on you can eat normally but the cleaner the better. No alcohol, recreational drugs, pork or sex for a full 30 days unless you have made arrangements with me for another time period. Please check in with me those of you who are doing a shorter duration.
after taking salt, please take one drop each day internally to stay connected and use the tincture in your hands and rub over your crown, your hands, your chakras as you are led. If you have a difficult interaction use it to cleanse, if you anticipate a challenging interaction, use it to protect (topical application) You get used to the smell!
Re: the phone sessions. Last dieta some of you called, some didn't. It isn't mandatory to call me but if you don't, please post here on the site so I can know how you are doing. If you need more than 30 minutes, please be gracious in giving value back for my time via paypal, yogagroove@paonia.com. Suggested donation is $1 per minute or whatever you are able to afford. It's important we begin to be conscious about always paying forward when value is given. If you have no $ and need support then we can discuss something so please always call if you need me but be prepared to offer something in exchange for my time. As I add dieters the time required becomes significant. I know you all understand, we are fostering an environment of abundant flow here and it will extend back to you in time.
Please call me or email me with any further questions as I may have left something out. I look forward to hearing how this one goes for you. Its a big one, very different from the Osha!
prepare to be Ajosed!
