Just started my Amorosa dieta, it's a dieta for opening up to love. I think this is the dieta that most people been excited to hear more about just because it's about calling in love. The tricky thing with this dieta is that it can manipulate people to the idea of love, thus not real love.
These plants and this dieta is also where many people get stuck in black magic, they fall for the power of manipulation. Of starting to practice love potions and spells, or making people to do stuff for you even though it doesn't resonate at their deepest core. Pure manipulation in different ways, which is what black magic is.
This dieta isn't given to just anyone and I don't think it should be given to just anyone. It can create a lot of harm if given to the wrong person, because if the person lack maturity and the understanding of true love (which is completely free) then they won't be able to match the highest frequency of these plants.
From my teachers I'm learning that this is a dieta that you work up to. And there has been immense work to get to this point. So in a way I'm celebrating because I feel like I passed through a milestone. Like completing high school and now I'm in University, first year. I feel like I've been initiated into a new world and now I need to learn the basics of this new world.
I could notice the shift in consciousness even the day before my dieta started. We had one ceremony the night before and it was different. Then the night where I had my first glass of medicine before the ceremony it was as if I stepped through a door and I was in a different world, a completely different world.
Ayahuasca never been especially easy for me, it's been a highly challenging path for me that has left me extremely bewildered and lost at times. In a way other plants have been easier and much more clear, yet Ayahuasca has been the one that calls me the loudest. I think sometimes she keeps me outside of understanding with my mind so that I can receive a much deeper understanding. It's a constant weaving of consciousness. A process that I cannot explain well with words, yet I've come to trust this intricate process and I can see clearly the results of this work.
I'm now on dieta for the next three months and I will dieta with up to 14 plants. This is my first longer dieta and after this one is done I will have a short break before I start working with the trees, the Palos. This is the dieta that I might be the most excited about. The trees are so wise and some are so old and they carry a wisdom that is so deep and so profound. But to dieta with the Palos you have to build up capacity to hold light and to be able to "read" the light so you have to work with other plants first.
I'm not writing here as an expert, I hope you all understand that. I'm writing as I'm learning and thus some of my perspectives may change as I gain a greater understanding of this work with the plants. I'm a novice and its important to share that.
I also want to share the importance of working with a great teacher, someone with many years of experience in many dietas with the plants. Someone that you can trust with your entire heart and soul. My teachers, Rocio and Sylvie are people that I love beyond words and I know they would walk with me to hell and back if they needed to. With them I don't need to hold back anything, I trust them completely. That's an extremely important part for the purity of the transmission to take place.
You need a maestra or maestro to literally hold your hand as you connect with the plants so that you can receive the highest transmissions without any distortions.
In this work as I'm learning that the space holding is the most important, it's energetic nature. It's literally about creating a space that feels like a loving womb, a space that's so warm and full of love that each person that enters can let go of all their shields so that they can open up and allow themselves to be vulnerable to receive love. Because to be able to heal we need to be able to let go of all the walls that keep the pain away. This sometimes takes time and this sometimes requires you to lose your mind over and over again until your mind with your emotional body has become purified and cleared.
You have to lose your current perspectives to gain higher perspectives and this is a constant refinement process a process that requires immense presence and awareness in each and every moment.
I don't think that you can go far with Ayahuasca without presence and mindfulness. Actually you cannot advance spiritually without presence and mindfulness, but with plant teachers such as Ayahuasca and other plant allies such as the Amorosas we can go much deeper into the understanding of true love.
This is just the beginning phase of the dieta, I'm looking forward to share more as we go along.
I love you.
