A vision quest is a powerful experience that awakens your inner power and purpose, through your relationship with the natural world. By spending time alone, deeply immersed, you allow for mental, emotional, spiritual, and physical shifts to occur. Your time spent in contemplation is enhanced with guided meditations, shamanic initiations, and teachings that bring you clarity, creativity, spirituality, and wisdom.
Traditionally, indigenous people used the vision quest as a rite of passage into adulthood. The quester, usually around twelve to fourteen years of age, would give up his belongings to gain his true essence. Led to a sacred place atop a mountain, the quester would stay in a circle (called the medicine wheel), to gain a ”vision” of his life purpose. After the immersion in nature, the quester would return to the community with his vision. They would celebrate and offer gifts, usually surmounting to more then the quester had before, enabling him to realize his vision! The community placed a deep value on welcoming home a clear and purposeful member.

VICTORIA IBAR
Victoria Cappuccio is an emerging Clinical and Spiritual Herbalist and Spagyric Creator. She believes in energetic and plant medicine as a path of personal and collective healing and transmutation.
Initiated from a young age into the shamanic, metaphysical, and plant path, her call to awaken, like many, came in the form of physical illness. It was through this experience she understood the cosmic and planetary influence that was attempting to align her to her purpose and path. She came to recognize the crystallization of physical imbalance in the body is rooted in spiritual and energetic lessons. She believes that our relationships with plants, as intelligent messengers of the cosmos, exists to facilitate our soul’s development, and evolution of our consciousness. As a conduit, she is a carrier of their medicine, sharing their healing and gifts with others.
