Coca is known as the Mother of Wisdom in many indigenous communities throughout the Andes. For generations upon generations she has been consulted to gain insight on work, health, relationships, travel, decisions, and approaches to life.
COCA CAN SUPPORT MODERN LIFE TOO:
Though it is an ancient practice, Coca Leaf Readings are also a very effective modern day tool. In fact, we consult the Coca for a good portion of decisiones and approaches for our organization and projects.
HOW IS IT USED?
When a maestro or Maestra has a deepened and life-long relationship with the Coca plant, he/she can develop an ability to read the leaves like a divination practice. Just as modern individuals can read and write papers to absorb information, a Coca Wisdom-keeper can acutely tune into the attributes of the plant and plant spirit to gain insight into specific questions the participant has in mind. Characteristics such as shape, color, placement, and form of the leaves all give information to the reader. Therefore, it is quite common in the Andes to consult a Coca Wisdom-keeper to gain insight into situations, challenges, decisiones, relationships, and other aspects of life.
WHAT IS THE PROCESS?
When a participant asks a Maestro for a reading, they often will be asked to blow their intentions onto the leaves. The Maestro will then pray and connect to the spirit of the Mother Coca. He/she will then ask what the participant is first contemplating and will speak to the mother plant to ask her permission for insight. He/she will then throw the leaves onto a tapestry (or read straight from their bag or another variation of this personal practice) and will study the attributes of the leaves. From this deepened connection the Maestro will share information about the question asked and will often give valuable insight to support approaches and decisions. In my experience, a Maestro will often like to follow a reading with further prayer or ceremony to really add strength to information we uncovered, or to create corrective action and transform what needs to be shifted in life (rather than just leaving it open ended).
CAN I TRUST A READING?
First and foremost, it’s important you have a genuine connection with the Maestro or Maestra — not just accept a reading because it’s your one and only chance or it’s something cool to do. Accept readings form someone you trust, admire, and feel comfortable with. Secondly, once this trust is there, it’s important to believe in what you are doing, or else it’s just a waste of time and energy for everyone involved. If you can really feel that Mother Nature speaks through her plants and ancient lineage holders, then believe it fully and follow through with what is shared in the reading. If you do it and don’t follow up with action, what’s the point? A Coca reading shifts depending on our current state of being. I can get one answer one day, then apply corrective action in my life, and the outcome may shift another reading. The leaves are here to share insight into our current course of life and the approaches we are currently taking, which thank goodness to will power, we can accept or shift direction. She is a guide with suggestions, not a crystal ball in which all life is written in stone. The deeper our own personal relationship forms with this Master Plant, the easier it is to understand her way of communicating and how she wants to serve.
I hope this bit of info is insightful to you. I believe it is important to know the cultural backdrop of sacred plants and how they are honored traditionally. Many people ask about readings and come from all around the world to sit with us, so I figured, why not make a video about it?
