Huichol Nierika, Yarn Painting
Product Description:
Nierikas, or intricate Huichol patterns and designs depicting shamanic journeys and visions, are created by pressing wool or silk yarn into bee’s wax melted onto a wooden base. They illustrate the Huichol belief that humans are connected to all things in the natural world,...
This Neirika, handmade by a Huichol Indian in Mexico, depicts Werika, the Eagle Goddess, Queen of the Heavens, soaring above a fire. The Huichols believe that fire is one of the most valuable gifts from the gods. Tatewari, the spirit of fire, is responsible for bestowing visions. Throughout the Neirika, Kayumari, the spirit of the blue deer, is present. Kayumari is one of the greatest Huichol guides, for it teaches Shamans to learn, navigate visions, connect with the spirit world, and heal. Above the corn stalks, which are imperative to Huichol survival, is the sun, representing light and illumination in the world, and giving all living things their power. The Nierika is filled with flowers, candles, which are linked to the light within the human spirit, prayer arrows, feathers, and spirits. This yarn painting, like all other Neirikas, is sacred. It was created to connect this world to Spirit, to open pathways for visions and insights, to praise and thank the world that surrounds us.
You can choose from either a monthly subscription payment of $50 per month for 12 months or a one time donation of $600.

Huichol Beaded Necklace
Product Description:
This unique beaded necklace was made by a Huichol artisan in Mexico. It depicts a two headed eagle and a deer, as well as various other Huichol symbols such as sacred Peyote Cactus. See below for a description of the symbols. This necklace is a work of art and measures approx. 18 inches in length and the square part is 5 inches by about 4.5 inches.
According to www.thehuicholcenter.org:
DEER – The spirit guide Kauyumari, who leads the shamans on their visionary pathways and teaches them how to gain their special knowledge. One of the most commonly seen motifs, the deer, maxa, in Huichol, often appear in male and female pairs, symbolizing the unity between men and women on their spiritual journey. Legends about the deer abound in Huichol culture. The deer mother is the guardian spirit, the important animal in Huichol shamanism. She holds tobacco gourds and corn plant, both of utmost importance for Huichol survival. The Huichols believe that deer give their lives willingly to those who hunt them in a sacred manner. After a deer hunt, the hunters have to perform purifying rituals for many days to insure that the animals are properly thanked for giving their lives to the benefit of the people.
PEYOTE CACTI - Symbol for life, sustenance, health, success, good luck, and acquisition of shamanic powers, the peyote appears in practically all Huichol art and is considered a gift from the gods to the people to enlighten their lives and bring them into the mystical realm.
EAGLE – Believed to be the embodiment of a goddess known as Mother Eagle, Mother of the Sky and Queen of Heavens. Huichols admire Werika, the eagle as the most magnificent among all birds.
PRAYER ARROWS – Used to express gratitude or requests to the gods, called Urus, prayer arrows, like gourd bowls, are ceremonial objects through which the gods are believed to give their blessings. Special prayer arrows have crystals attached to them, representing the spirits of departed ancestors.
HEALING WANDS – Called Muvieri, each shaman carries a wand in their medicine basket. They are made of pairs of eagle or hawk feathers attached to ceremonial arrows, and are used in rain making ceremonies and other divinations.
THE SIGNIFICANCE OF COLORS:
WHITE – Cloud Spirits.
RED – The East, fire, masculinity.
BLUE – The South, Pacific Ocean, water, rain, femininity.
GREEN – The Earth, the Heavens, healing, the heart, grandfather, growth.
YELLOW – A special root from Wirikuta used for face paint in ceremonies.
ORANGE – “Wirikuta”, the sacred land where the Huichol believe life began and also where they gather peyote.
