Pachamama
Pachamama is a goddess revered by the indigenous people of the Andes. She is also known as the earth mother. In Inca mythology, Mama Pacha or Pachamama is a fertility goddess who presides over planting and harvesting. Pachamama reminds us to invite ritual into our lives, as ritual feeds and nourishes the soul. It’s a sequence of actions rooted in specific intentions that allow for deeper connection with our inner spirit and nature.
