Jaguars are considered by the Huichol Indians of Mexico to be wise guardian spirits of the night who guide people in their vision quests and dreams to the supernatural realms where they receive sacred knowledge. The jaguar spirits are messengers of the creators.The spots of the jaguar represent the eyes that see through the blinding darkness of the invisible spirit world. The butterflies represent the transformative & healing powers of shamans. Shamans invoke the magic of jaguar spirits for strength, endurance, luck and supernatural powers.
The images are adapted from traditional Huichol Yarn paintings & embellished by students at the center while learning the cultural traditions of the community.
