Luna Wolf offers various ceremonies and gatherings that are held by highly trained facilitators from diverse backgrounds.

The art and practice of space holding is held to the utmost importance at Luna Wolf. Our facilitators training ranges from traditional indigenous medicine lineages to EMT/fire services, integrative medicine, and various academic health disciplines.

Luna Wolf also finds the importance of cross collaboration programs with other professionals in the region and our South American allies to help support our valued integration process.

We have a growing team of space holders regularly trained in to support people from many walks of life.

The Grandmother Ayahuasca is a source of great wisdom to see more clearly who you are in a sacred container. We will hold ceremony over night, share a meal and provide time for rest before joining in the morning for another meal and closing ceremony. This ceremony is a powerful experience of self-reflection and conscious expansion. Each of us will have our own unique relationship with it, but we unite in the vine’s beautiful wisdom.

The Sonoran Desert Bufo Toad and Jaguar 5meo sacrament provides a profound and rapid return to deeper layers of your true self. This practice is an incredible tool for shedding that which no longer serves you. You will be provided with informational material to aid in your preparation and 1st-timers will be asked to attend an online preparation meeting for safety purposes.

While the Two-Leaf Guardian Kambo Frog is not entheogenic or visionary, the effects should not be underestimated. This practice has the ability to induce a deep cleanse and purge. Because of this, it is commonly used in preparation for ayahuasca or bufo. The frog secretion is applied to superficial burns on the skin that rapidly work into the bloodstream, bile ducts and the gut-liver-lymph system, inducing a sacred purge prized by ancient Amazonian lineages.

All our sacraments are sourced in an ethically harvested manner. These are sourced from mentors, shamans, and associations that align with the full integrity of Luna Wolf’s Statement of Beliefs.

Luna Wolf works closely the the Shipibo tradition of Pucallpa Peru, Kichwa communities of Ecuador, Matse tribes of Peru, medicine families of the Sonoran Desert Region of Mexico, and Mestizo tribe of Colombia.

Partial proceeds from our donations support help to pay it forward, maintaining the sustainability of our traditional indigenous partnerships and their precious communities.

Research and pervasive anecdotal evidence supports the understanding that uncontrolled circumstances exposed to unplanned or unsupportive stimuli is much more likely to result in harm.

Making a container “sacred” means making as many aspects of it support the benefit of the participants as possible.

Where it is, when it is, who is present, what is present, and what everyone is doing must have an enormous amount if planning and intentionality behind it. Entering expanded states of consciousness in this way is not only very safe, but it’s also more likely to benefit those involved.

Nothing is taken for granted in sacred ceremony because when you take these medicines, you become extremely aware of everything around you, thus more likely to be affected by it, for better or worse.

Compare this to consuming powerful mind-altering substances in a recreational context or being alone or with the inexperienced. The differences can be life-changing.

Sacred ceremony conducted by skilled facilitators with integrity has a much higher chance of being safe and beneficial.

Having a membership system is neccessary for us to operate safely and legally.

Having the appropriate amount of knowledge and insight leading up to your personal path and protocol is important. Different sacraments and ceremonies can work synergistically with your particular intention, ailment, or growth.

Our core facilitators review the proper health screening process with each individual and can help to potentially find the right protocol that fits them best for their particular goal.

Different sacraments and ceremonies at different times will work better than others, depending on the current issue someone is working through. At Luna Wolf, we have a focused and dedicated joy in seeing what may align best for each individual.

The fundamental balance of masculine and feminine is extremely sacred to us. We always have a strong female presence in ceremony either in the form of Guardians/Keepers or incorporating feminine practices.

At least half of the people we've served have been women or non-binary and we commonly receive positive reviews from them. You can hear from them at our member events.

As far as future leadership roles, we are in the process of forming our Board of Directors, which will create an opportunity for more representation in the community we serve.

In the end, perspective of masculine vs feminine is very subjective. We recommend you come to a Sound Ceremony to feel it out for yourself before stepping into the sacred medicine space. It's a brief preview of our ceremonies without the commitment of taking a sacrament and is open to the public.

Sitting in community is an extremely valuable part of why we formed Luna Wolf Sanctuary. It provides the opportunity to be witnessed in your authenticity and to connect with the authenticity in others. This is profoundly healing for most people.

For this to happen, our experience in ceremony will be affected by others. It’s difficult to understand what this is really like from the default state of consciousness. Without the normal egoic projections, we experience the variety of human expression with less judgement and more empathy.

This equates to dynamics between us being a valuable learning opportunity for the whole group.

*That being said, when an individual’s expression in ceremony reaches a certain threshold, we gently invite them to spend some time in a side room or other area outside the circle for more intense expression.

**We also offer private ceremonies by request.

According to the Religious Freedom Restoration Act of 1993 (RFRA), religions are exempt from normal laws as long as they don’t:

• Negatively impact the health and safety of those involved
• Practice outside the church or for non-religious use.

We have structured the following elements into LWS to meet these requirements:

• A state-recognized 501(c)(3) non-profit with thorough documentation to reflect our practices and beliefs
• A screening process for membership that creates a clear boundary between church practices and outside activities
• Records of sacrament supplies and usage
• All participants are required to agree to respecting the whole process of consuming the sacraments
• Thorough safety and preparation information for each sacrament is provided

On top of our preparation meetings, monthly Potlucks, monthly Sound Ceremonies, and Open House events, our members regularly host gatherings of many kinds.

For those interested in more personalized care, members are invited to make use of private services with LWS founders.

We are also part of an incredible local network of allied healing studios, practitioners, spiritual consultants, and other helpful professionals that we are happy to refer you to. As we expand our offerings, even more opportunities will materialize.

There are elements of our sacraments that are considered by most people to be “psychedelic.” However, what we serve involves much more than psychedelic effects.

The word “psychedelic” in Greek is defined to be the mind becoming manifested, seen, evident…

While that is important, it is just one of many elements of our ceremonies.

Ceremony is an art that is expressed differently by every facilitator. LWS practices a fusion of the ancient traditions with contemporary influences such as attention to individual health circumstances, modern musical sounds, accessibility to the average person, and inclusion of integration practices.

Each sacrament has its own ceremony as well. The flow and structure is designed to match the unique dynamics of each sacrament.

Generally speaking, our ceremonies begin with casual socializing while you set up your personal area before convening with the facilitators for an informational talk and introductions.

We then invite participants to engage in some exercises for the mind/body/spirit designed to gently prime yourself for the sacraments effects.

Taking of the sacraments is done in sincere ritual processes while sensory elements of the ceremony are engaged to establish a proper container.

Facilitators, Guardians & Keepers provide support throughout the ceremony and we cap the # of.participants at 12-17 people, depending on the ceremony.

Ceremonies are concluded with food and an opportunity to share your experience with the group.

We have indoor ceremonies all year and in the warm months we also commune in sacred outdoor locations.
