The other principle is to walk on earth leaving no footprints behind (environmental impact)
just like we did when we were kids
we would be more present and would make better decisions
the milpa and up to the sky in tune with the water cycle
We recommend hanging this rug in your ritual space or wearing it over the shoulders during meditation or ceremonies or drape it over your blankets at night to call the Jaguar spirit and teachings into your dream world

Niaa is the word for my hand
Mountains have been guding our walk on earth since the last Ice Age Maximum when we followed their peaks to find safe places to reside leading us to ancient lakes where other animals were fed and nurtured by the earth and the sky
When we dance we pray for the rains to fall on our land
Plus 10-15 days for shipping
The mountain pattern is reminding us that mountains are the sacred elders of our planet and help us elevate our spirit to the sky while providing a lot of our earthly needs too
