    • Getting to the Root - Part 2- Indigenous Farming
      May 12 2023

      Bad soil? You can still have good crops.

      Dry conditions? Water has a memory. Learn why this is important.

      Tatas'juanna opens part two of our “Getting to the Root” conversation talking about his battle for water and his plans for a walk along the Colorado River from Mexico to Moab, Utah.

      He then speaks about indigenous farming practices including developing a relationship with your seeds, fortifying them with moon energy, and most importantly having a strong expectation of abundance.

      Akin to the observer effect in quantum physics, this consistent expectation of abundance yields extraordinary results.

      He then reveals the best fertilizer you can use. Hint: it’s not compost, manure, bonemeal, fish emulsions, etc.

      Discover how indigenous farming practices traveled with the ancient Pueblo people from Mesoamerica to the Arizona desert.

      Circle back to an exploration of root words. This conversation will likely have you thinking very differently about what it means to be a shaman or witch.

      Find out that words of affirmation in Tatas’juanna’s culture have the same meaning as “Namaste” or “Amen”.

      Explore how honouring ancestral earth connections may bear abundant fruit (and veggies).

      Note: Tatas’juanna mentions his death experience in this episode. More about that here: Waking up in the Morgue
