Camalonga; the warrior master plant of second sight
Camalonga (Camalongua) — A Potent Master Plant in the Shipibo Tradition
Camalonga — also spelled Camalongua, Camalongua blanca or Camalongua negra — is one of the most powerful and mysterious plants used in traditional Shipibo master plant dietas in the Peruvian Amazon. Known among healers as a seer’s plant and a plant of energetic precision, Camalonga has long been used by indigenous curanderos and onanya (Shipibo healers) for spiritual cleansing, psychic activation, dream work, and protection.
For guests visiting Reshin Nika’s traditional Shipibo master plant dieta and Ayahuasca retreat outside Pucallpa, Peru, Camalonga is sometimes opened for those who are truly called — especially for people working on clearing attachments, strengthening spiritual sight, or deepening their intuitive abilities.
The Essence of Camalonga
Camalonga holds a very distinct spirit: sharp, alert, and penetrating. Whereas plants like Bobinsana are gentle and heart-soothing, Camalonga works in the realms of clarity, protection, and advanced intuitive perception. Traditionally, it is a plant only dieted with the guidance of an experienced maestro or maestra, because its energy is direct, transformative, and deeply revealing.
Some lineages describe Camalonga as:
A warrior plant
A plant of visionary intelligence
A plant that teaches how to “see the unseen”
A plant that clears shadows, illusions, and psychic debris
Its seeds are the most commonly used part of the plant in dieta form, though some traditions prepare it as a maceration or infusion. The energetic effect is unmistakable: Camalonga cuts through heaviness, confusion, psychic fog, and foreign energies with extraordinary precision.
Primary Properties of Camalonga in a Shipibo Dieta
1. Deep Energetic & Spiritual Cleansing
Camalonga is renowned for its ability to clear:
Heavy, intrusive, or stagnant energies
Spiritual attachments
Residual cords from past relationships
Old sorcery or energetic interference (brujería)
Many Shipibo healers use Camalonga as part of energetic defense training for apprentices learning to navigate the spirit world.
2. Dream Activation, Lucid Dreaming & Visionary Work
One of the most well-known effects of Camalonga is its impact on the dream world. Dieters often experience:
Vivid, symbolic, or prophetic dreams
Clear visionary states during sleep
Encounters with spirit guides or plant allies
Increased dream recall and interpretation skills
Because much of Camalonga’s teaching happens in sueños, the dieta is often recommended for those called to dreamwork, divination, or healing through visions.
3. Expansion of Psychic Perception & Intuition
Camalonga is widely considered a plant that opens:
The third eye
Energetic perception
Intuitive intelligence
The ability to read subtle fields
Shamans may dieta Camalonga to improve their ability to “see” the root of illness, understand hidden energies, and refine their diagnostic clarity.
4. Divination & Seer’s Training
In Shipibo and other Amazonian traditions, Camalonga is often used to:
Reveal the origins of spiritual imbalances
Identify energetic intrusions
Strengthen one’s inner sight and discernment
Support the learning of icaros (medicine songs)
This is a plant for those walking the seer’s path, offering razor-sharp insight into oneself and others.
5. Spiritual Protection & Energetic Fortification
Camalonga is known to:
Build a stronger energetic field
Protect against psychic noise or interference
Create a sense of inner solidity
Strengthen one’s spiritual boundaries
For many, the dieta feels like putting on spiritual armor — protective, empowering, and clarifying.
What a Camalonga Dieta Involves (Traditional Shipibo Practice)
A Camalonga dieta at a traditional Shipibo master plant dieta retreat near Pucallpa, such as at Reshin Nika’s healing center, typically includes:
Isolation and silence (sama)
A strict dieta protocol (no salt, sugar, oil, spice, alcohol, sex, or stimulation)
Daily ingestion of Camalonga in small, carefully measured doses
Optional Ayahuasca ceremonies to amplify insight
Regular healing songs (icaros) sung by the maestro to guide and protect the dieter
Ongoing energetic supervision and post-dieta guidance
Because Camalonga can generate powerful dream states, emotional purges, and psychic openings, working with an experienced Shipibo healer is essential.
