FSI Vision Quest Africa
2026-04-18 22:00 - 2026-05-03 08:30 (Europe/Helsinki) | Spiritus Victoria, Malmesbury, South Africa
The Vision Quest is a traditional native initiation rite of several tribes of the USA and Mexico. The vision quester climbs the mountain with the purpose of seeking a direction in life,a rebirth, or a deepening in self-knowledge through prayers, reflection and commitment.
We are in alliance with and oriented by this tradition, with the permission and blessings to lead this ancestral design delivered by the chief of the Sacred Fire of Itzachilatian, Aurelio Diaz Tekpankali. In this way, we make the call, the invocation to the four directions, to the heart of the sky, to the Great Spirit, to the great Mystery, to the heart of the Mother Earth, to the giver of life, and to all life.
We seek to understand the purpose of our true nature, to be the sum of multiple tribes and nations. Celebrating the moment in which we recognise ourselves – we are all interconnected, we all have the same origin, the same present and also the same future. For the love and respect of those who came before us, that resolved to bequeath their knowledge, their wisdom and instructions. That we can return to the truth, to the center, to the point of creation and agree to somehow stop the disease and imbalance.
Doing the work with clarity, transparency, cleanliness and consistency. With humility, sincerity, will and integrity to be useful and to be of benefit. To strengthen and nourish ourselves in the opportunity to once again place our own truth here, in the center, and together in our time return to the direction of all directions. With this purpose questers are taken to the mountain for a fast from food, water and speech for 4, 7, 9 and 13 days.
The intention is that the seeker reaches a greater level of understanding of his/ her purpose or way of life, thus recognising the ways of traditional people who gave us the sacred designs, medicines, knowledge of fasting, meditation, observation, self-study and the conscious interaction with the environment and the elements. That which is hidden is revealed through the mystery, the self-observation, the internal and external manifestations of the quester and through the wisdom of nature.

The medicine is then passed around the circle, followed by the first prayersongs round. For purposes of singing the prayer songs, a staff and gourd is passedaround the ceremony space, accompanied by a water drum.

Once the medicine and instruments have made their way around the circle, theceremonial leader calls the firekeeper to bring the Midnight Water for purposes of theMidnight Water Prayer Smoke.

After another round of medicine and singing, it is time for the Power Tobacco which is acrucial point in the ceremonial journey. With this tobacco, there is a weaving of greatclarity, and much opportunity for healing and integration.

After the power round, the women leave the ceremonial space to take care of theMorning Water and the sacred food. This is the time for the Earth Mother. It is now timefor the Morning Prayer Tobacco, which is a time for stillness and deep listening. TheMorning Water and food are then sent around the circle and we sit in the celebrationand gratitude of accomplishing our ceremonial purpose together.

Shamanic Ceremony - Ayahuasca & Los Niños
2026-07-10 20:00 - 2026-07-11 08:00
The ceremony will be in the shamanic style, a ceremony during which teacher plants/ power plants are taken by the participants with a prayer for healing, direction and spiritual growth.
A shamanic journey is to invoke the four directions, the heart of the sky, the Great Spirit, the Great Mystery, the heart of Mother Earth and the Sacred Fire. The teachings and knowledge of the medicines open our hearts and our minds – not only to really know, accept and love ourselves, but also to accept and include others in our circle, without any judgements.
By doing the work with clarity, integrity, respect and consistency, always remembering to be humble and sincere, we honour those that came before us – their knowledge, wisdom and instructions. Much healing is possible during a shamanic journey – with the guidance of sacred songs, we are able to restore our connection Great Spirit and All That Is. In this way, physical and emotional obstacles are shifted, and limiting beliefs are removed. By healing this separation in each of us, everything can be healed.

Women's Day celebration with Los Niños
2026-08-08 20:00 - 2026-08-09 08:00
This women’s ceremony with mushrooms is a guided, intentional gathering using psilocybin which provides a safe container for participants. The gathering of women around the Sacred Fire focus on emotional release, deep healing, trauma processing, and sisterhood.

Before ingesting the mushrooms, the group creates a communal altar and establishes personal and collective intentions, where each woman can share her challenges.

The ceremony is guided through medicine songs, instruments and silence in order to support the inward journey. There will also be space for expression through communal drumming and dancing.

After a few hours, once the effects of the medicine wear off, participants share their experiences and ground themselves with a communal plant-based soup.
