Simone Huber
"EI ordered a Messina from Sacred Loop as I am on a course about the way of the Queros, the Peruvian Medicine wheel, here in England and wanted an authentic cloth. The purchase was easy, the packet arrived quickly and I am very happy with my Mesa cloth. I can only recommend The Sacred Loop to anyone who is looking for a Peruvian Messina/Mesa cloth."

"This store is unique compared to a lot of the other places I’ve looked at. The mestana cloths I ordered were even more beautiful in person. The seller shipped the items out promptly and it took just over a week to get to Florida. I plan to shop here again and support this small business!"

Offerings, ceremonies and rituals – Pachamama
Ancestral traditions that date back thousands of years are still being performed and practiced in the Andean highlands of Peru’s remote regions. The Despacho ceremony, an offering to Pachamama, is one of Peru’s oldest and most sacred rituals; one that allows the people of the Andes to give thanks to their one and only goddess: Pachamama, our Mother Earth.
A despacho offering is a symbolic way in which human beings give back to Pachamama for what they abundantly receive from her. In essence, the purpose is the restoration of exchange between humans and nature, bringing both into balance.
