Our identity

A family path that became a shared mission.

Santuário Céu de Aparecida was founded on June 24, 2023. Its direction is shared by four people, expressing the principle of non-specialism: no single person is treated as the owner of spiritual knowledge.

The Sanctuary combines clear organization with humility, free will, diversity and respect for individual processes. Its ritual formation is its own and does not claim to represent Indigenous peoples or other ayahuasca religions.

Responsible practice

Care begins before the ceremony and continues after it.

First-time participants complete a health and personal history questionnaire, attend an individual interview and join an in-person orientation circle. Ceremonies have limited attendance and are supported by directors and guardians throughout the ritual.

The Sanctuary makes no promise of healing, does not diagnose and does not advise anyone to discontinue medication or professional treatment.

Before

Information, screening, interview and preparation.

During

Prepared setting, limited attendance and continuous support.

After

Listening, integration and referral when appropriate.
