Beautiful Colombian shamans rattles, made from natural entada seed pods. The handle is made of chonta wood. Each rattle is approx 11” long. Each rattle comes with 1-6, sustainably harvested macaw feathers of various sizes.
These are made lovingly by the Cofán tribe from the Putumayo region of Colombia.
This rattle type is an absolute favorite of the Spirit Visions family! The sound creates is incredibly peaceful and melodic. The addition of the "window" on each seed section of the shaker makes for a deeper sound that projects louder than our windowless variation.
Entada seeds: musical seed that is commonly used in many shamanic traditions of South America. It is also known as the dream bean when used for medicinal purposes, as it enhances lucid dreams and connects us to spirit realms. The seed is used to create vibrations that move the energy of the ceremony, create good vibrations for protection and to transmute bad or stagnant energies.
Chonta Wood: The handle is made from sacred wood of the chonta palm tree (also known as "chonta durmi" or "black palm" or "chonta duro") Chonta wood is a dense, dark wood that comes from the spines of certain palm trees, particularly from the Amazon rainforest in South America. Indigenous peoples in the region have been using chonta wood for various practical and ceremonial purposes for centuries. Shamans have been known to use the sharp long spikes found on chonta tree trunks as "darts" to take out evil spirits which cause illness. Due to its deep cultural and historical roots, chonta wood has accumulated various spiritual significances:
Symbol of Strength and Durability: Given its dense nature and the fact that it can be used to make weapons like blow darts, spears, and clubs, chonta wood symbolizes strength, endurance, and protection in some cultures.
Connection to Ancestors and Traditions: Indigenous tribes often utilize chonta wood in their rituals and ceremonies. For them, the wood serves as a connection to their ancestors and the traditions they've passed down through generations.
Healing and Medicine: Some indigenous cultures believe that chonta wood possesses healing properties. Shamans or spiritual leaders might use tools made of chonta wood in rituals meant to heal or protect.
Spiritual Growth: The journey from seed to towering palm tree can be seen as a metaphor for an individual's spiritual journey. Thus, chonta wood, being a product of this journey, can symbolize spiritual growth and development.
Earth's Energy: Chonta wood is believed by some to carry the energy of the earth, given its direct connection to the soil and the environment of the Amazon rainforest. Items made from chonta might be considered powerful or spiritually charged due to this perceived energy.
Balance and Stability: The palm tree from which chonta wood is derived stands tall and stable, often amid the dynamic environment of the rainforest. This stability can symbolize balance and grounding in one's spiritual journey.
Macaw feathers: The macaw is a bird of grace. In the yagé culture, it is the guardian of the air element and the celestial world . The macaw feathers on these pieces are truly spectacular.
