Peyote Retreat Europe — Traditional Hikuri Ceremony in Portugal

Algarve, Portugal · Small group · Family-style ceremonial container
Includes screening + preparation and post-retreat integration (group + 1:1).

This intimate 3-day / 2-night Peyote retreat Europe centers around one overnight ceremony guided by Marakame Juan (Wirrarika / Huichol lineage) together with Curandera Devi Chandra Ma (Prana Foundation). The medicine is held with reverence — prayer, song, offerings, and a careful ceremonial arc from sunset through the night to dawn.

You arrive on Day 1 for an opening group talk and personal 1:1 check-ins. The Peyote ceremony begins around the fire at sunset. Throughout the night there are several Peyote servings, chants and prayers, and offerings for your loved ones — past or present — and for whatever you hold sacred. The ceremony closes at dawn with prayers to the four winds, and later the Marakame may offer private healings (energy work).

Container • Screening • Integration

We hold the retreat in a grounded Western setting with clear preparation, careful pacing, and trauma-informed support.

🌙

Curandera Devi Chandra Ma

Mexican Healer • Reiki Master • Prana Foundation

A Mexican curandera and facilitator of ancestral medicine ceremonies (Ayahuasca, Bufo Alvarius, Peyote) with 20+ years of experience. Her path was shaped by a profound near-death experience, leading into devotional work rooted in Mother Earth and the Divine Mother — weaving shamanic, Vedic, and earth-based practices, including sacred feminine work, cacao ceremonies, and singing.

Marakame Juan (Don Juan Ortiz)

Wirrarika Marakame • Primer Cantor • Hikuri / Peyote

A Wirrarika (Huichol) traditional healer from Jalisco, Mexico, and the First Chant Leader (Primer Cantor) of his community. With 35+ years walking the Blue Deer Medicine (Hikuri / Peyote), he leads the traditional Wirikuta Deer Hunt pilgrimage and is among the few permitted to perform sacred living offerings — ceremonies devoted to honoring the elemental forces and restoring balance for all life.
