Sananga Rapé | Noke Koi Tribe | Courage

The plant, which is botanically called Tabernaemontana undulata from the Apocynaceae family, is popularly known across Brazilian cultures as Sananga or “Forest Eye Drop” (Colírio da Floresta) as the root is used to make sananga eye drops.

The spirit of Sananga is capable of “reading” a person’s energetic patterns that are unbalanced or disrupted by spiritual or psycho-somatic ailments known as “panemas”. It works to bring this energy back to a soothing stability and harmony with Nature, expanding the reach of the third eye and promoting ocular improvements as well, such as a better perception of colors and increased sharpness of visions.

Sananga protects against certain forms of negative energy, cleanses the body of fear, unresolved grief, and traumas. It helps to remove negative thinking patterns, anger, and resentment.

The energy of Sananga Rapé comes in as a Golden Kundalini Serpent - immediately entering into the third eye and crown chakras with a blast of warming heat and light.

The Tribe

The Noke Koi tribe are otherwise known as the Katukina or Catuquina, Katokina, Katukena, Katukino which are generic terms attributed to five linguistically distinct but geographically proximate indigenous groups that live in southwestern Brazil at the border of the Amazonas and Acre. The Katukina are very connected to the usage of sacred plants. They consider themselves as the first tribe to receive the Kambo medicine straight from the frog. They still carry a vast knowledge about plants and the spirit of the world. Their Rapé is strong and deep, and it carries the wild and powerful spirit of the jungle.
