{"product_id":"mulateiro-rape","title":"Mulateiro rapé – Huni Kuin","description":"\u003ch2\u003eMulateiro rapé: let go of what is no longer yours\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eStrength: 5 out of 7. Character: deeply grounding, resilience, vitality.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThere is a tree in the Amazon that loses its bark every year. Not as a sign of weakness. As a sign of renewal. Layer after layer falls away. What remains is smooth, new, and shiny.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThat is the Mulateiro. Mulateiro rapé is made by the Huni Kuin, the largest indigenous people of the state of Acre in the Brazilian Amazon. Its ash carries the same message as the tree: let go of what is no longer yours. Every layer that falls makes room for what is truly inside.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eWhat is Mulateiro rapé?\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMulateiro rapé is a fine plant powder made from the ash of the Mulateiro tree. Its botanical name is \u003cem\u003eCalycophyllum spruceanum\u003c\/em\u003e. In Brazil, it is also called pau-mulato, in Peru capirona.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe tree stands out in the forest. Not because of its height, but because of its bark. It peels off in layers, like a snake shedding its skin. The peoples of the Amazon saw a clear message in this: what you no longer need, you cast off. Stop carrying what is not yours.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIn tradition, the Mulateiro is also called \"the tree of youth\". That fits what you see: a new, smooth trunk every year.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eRapé is pronounced as \"ha-pé\". That is why you also see the spelling hapé, and sometimes rapeh. The Huni Kuin have traditionally used rapé in ceremony and meditation.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eHow Mulateiro is made\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Huni Kuin make ash from the Mulateiro with the intention of renewal: letting go of the old, so that the new can land. That ash is ground very finely. Everything is done by hand, without machines. What is added is dried and finely pounded. The sun further pulverizes it. Then everything goes through a large sieve. During the work, songs are sung and prayers are offered.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eRapé you see elsewhere is often coarser and grainier. Our Mulateiro is super fine, almost powdery. That is how you can see how much handwork is involved.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eSmall batches, bottled immediately\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAlmost every month a new shipment arrives, in small batches. Kevin does the final inspection. The rapé goes directly into a dark bottle that blocks uv-light. This way, the prayers and chants remain captured in the bottle. Open the bottle, and you can smell how fresh it is.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eKevin has known the Huni Kuin for about eight years. He has daily contact with a Huni Kuin village in Acre, via WhatsApp and video calls. The rapé comes directly from them, without intermediaries. Going to the village is at the top of his list.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Huni Kuin are also called Kaxinawá. They themselves choose the name Huni Kuin, \"the True People\". So do we.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cblockquote\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\"They get the price they ask. I never haggle. And besides, a portion of the proceeds goes back to the village.\" — Kevin\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eHow do people experience Mulateiro?\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eYou know it: a thought you have been carrying for years. A way of thinking that always takes the same path. You know it can be different. But you don't see how.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eMany people experience a clear silence with Mulateiro. Thinking becomes calmer, and that is exactly when insight comes. Not by thinking harder, but by not thinking for a moment. Patterns you otherwise do not see become visible.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eMulateiro is different from Tsunu. Many people experience Tsunu as quiet and grounding. Mulateiro also grounds, but additionally opens upwards. Colors seem richer. Your intuition seems sharper. Some call that their third eye, or simply: knowing without thinking.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eAnd then the dreams. Many people use Mulateiro in the evening, when they are working with their dreams. They tell about dreams that are more vivid, and that they remember better.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eWhat many people experience with Mulateiro\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n\u003cul\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003eA clear silence in which insight can come\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003eOld thinking patterns that become visible\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003eA sharper intuition, a clear look inward\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003eVivid dreams that you remember better\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThis is experience, not a promise. Everyone experiences rapé differently.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eWho is Mulateiro rapé for?\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eMulateiro is for those who already have a foundation, and are ready for the next layer.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eYou already know Tsunu or Rosa and want to go deeper\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eMulateiro is a logical next step. You know how rapé feels. You know how your body reacts. Now there is room for more.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eYou are creatively engaged\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eWriting, making music, designing. Many creative people experience that Mulateiro lets analytical thinking rest for a moment. Then there is room for ideas you cannot force. Right after your moment, write down what comes. It is clear, but fleeting.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eYou are working with your dreams\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eDo you keep a dream journal? Are you practicing lucid dreaming? Many people consciously use Mulateiro as part of their dream work.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eYou are at the beginning of something new\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eA new job, a new relationship, a new chapter. The tree that sheds its bark fits such a moment. Many people use Mulateiro as a ritual: letting go of the old and welcoming the new.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eYou have been doing inner work for a long time\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eYou know yourself well, and yet you want to look further. Many people who have been meditating for years experience layers with Mulateiro that they otherwise find difficult to reach.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003ca href=\"\/en-pt\/pages\/keuzehulp\"\u003eWhich rapé suits you?

The tree sheds its bark every year and afterwards stands smooth and new in the forest again. We tell that nickname as an image, not as a promise.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eIs Mulateiro suitable for beginners?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eNot as the very first choice. Start with Tsunu, Rosa, or Murici. Mulateiro has strength 5 out of 7 and is more active in character. Do you already know rapé a little? Then it is a nice next step.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eWhen do I notice something about the dreams?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eMany people notice it most when they use Mulateiro 2 to 3 hours before going to sleep. Set an intention for your dream beforehand. Write down immediately in the morning what you know, because dreams fade quickly.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eCan I combine Mulateiro with Tsunu?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eYes, that is a classic combination. First Tsunu to land and become quiet. Then Mulateiro to go deeper. This way you have a solid foundation under you.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eWhat if the dreams are too intense?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eTake less, or use Mulateiro earlier in the day. Many people take Tsunu first to ground well. And save Mulateiro for moments that you consciously choose it for.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eWhat is the difference between Mulateiro and Samaúma?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eMany people experience Mulateiro as personal: insight, intuition, dreams. Samaúma (strength 6) they experience as greater: overview, heaven and earth, the ancestors.

The strongest moment is often around 15 to 30 minutes. After that, there is often still a quiet glow for 1 to 2 hours.
