Tepi

Connect with Ancestral Energy through the Tepi

The Tepi is a sacred tool, integral to the administration of Rapé in ceremonial settings. At MayaHerbs.com, our collection of handcrafted Tepi tools is rooted in the rich traditions of Amazonian cultures. These long pipes are designed to facilitate the transfer of energy and healing, connecting the user to the profound wisdom of the forest and the spirits that reside within it.

What Is a Tepi?

The Tepi is a traditional Amazonian tool used for administering Rapé, a powerful snuff with deep spiritual significance. Unlike the Kuripe, which is used for self-application, the Tepi is designed for use between two people. The tool allows the giver to blow Rapé into the receiver’s nostrils, symbolizing the transfer of spiritual energy and the healing power of the medicine.

Handcrafted with Sacred Intention

Each Tepi in our collection is handcrafted by indigenous artisans who bring generations of sacred knowledge to their work. These tools are made from natural, sustainable materials, selected for their connection to the Earth and their ability to channel spiritual energy. By choosing a handcrafted Tepi from MayaHerbs.com, you are honoring the traditions of the Amazon and supporting the continuation of these important cultural practices.

The Spiritual Role of the Tepi

The use of a Tepi is a deeply spiritual act that facilitates the connection between individuals and the sacred energies of the forest. The Tepi serves as a conduit for the Rapé, carrying the intention and energy of the giver to the receiver. This act of sharing not only strengthens bonds between people but also deepens the connection to the Earth and the ancestral spirits that guide us.
