Devi Chandra Ma
MEdicine Woman
Meet Devi Chandra Ma, also known as Divine Mother Moon, an intuitive Mexican medicine woman with a deep connection to nature. Since her early years, she has displayed remarkable intuition and a strong affinity for plants and animals. Her unique gift allows her to communicate with entities beyond our physical realm, forging an open connection to the spirit world.
After a life-changing near-death experience in her early twenties, Chandra decided to dedicate herself fully to the path of ancestral healing. She began her journey as a Reiki master and was initiated as a guardian of fire in the ancestral Mexican tradition of Temazcal (sweat lodge). Over the years, Chandra embraced the Vedic path, expanding her wisdom through meditation and mantras. This journey enabled her to assist others in connecting with their higher selves through energy vortexes and sacred geometries.
With more than 20 years of experience in working with plant medicines, Chandra has received teachings from various masters, including the shipibo conibo and red path teachers. Her knowledge encompasses the sacred medicines of Ayahuasca, peyote cactus (Hikuri) from the Wirrarika tribe in central-northern Mexico, and the Sonoran desert toad (Bufo Alvarius or Sapo). In Brazil, she has also been initiated to practice rapé and kambo.
Chandra offers a wide range of therapies and healing modalities, including biomagnetism, biodecodification, sound healing, breathwork, tantric breathwork, sexual energetic cut and cleansing, womb blessings, Vedic meditations, singing circles, and cacao ceremonies.
One of Chandra’s unique gifts is her mesmerizing icaros, sacred healing songs that she uses in her shamanic practices. These icaros hold ancient wisdom and have been passed down through generations, carrying the power to soothe, cleanse, and uplift the spirit. You can experience the enchanting melodies of her icaros below (link to audio).

Madelyne Pfeiffer, MSW
Clinical Therapist (MSW) and Medicine Woman

Madelyne Pfeiffer, MSW
Clinical Therapist (MSW) and Medicine Woman
Madelyne is a trained Clinical Social Worker who early in her career provided therapy to high risk foster youth living in group homes across San Diego. After an important time of taking care of her grandparents, she was deeply called to serving marginalized seniors who lacked family support and financial stability. She believed in a model of providing therapy and social work to seniors and families living in stabilized low income housing. Her mission was to support a model that provided both housing and services, so individuals and families could step fully into stability, growth, and transformation.
In 2009, Madelyne started her own mission-based organization that focused entirely on individualized social services and resources for low income seniors, children and families living in affordable housing across the nation.
5 years later, Madelyne started a second sister company focused on wellness and medicinal supplements to support low income senior’s health and wrap around wellness.
At this point, she had been working 60-70 hour weeks for many years and faced a personal crisis that brought on a full physical and mental breakdown.
When looking back now at that moment of desperation, she knows deeply that it was the best thing that ever happened to her.
It was that moment of surrendering that led her into taking the step towards working with plant medicine to transform her pain into growth. In her first journey she identified deeply repressed childhood trauma. She realized that facing her truth gave her the choice to heal her little girl self. That began her journey….to coming home.
Through years of diving deep into plant medicine, integration, meditation, yoga, voice activation, and horse medicine she found her way back to her wholeness and self love. During this time of letting go of all she identified herself as, she began to be deeply called to psilocybin and the powerful tools they were for her own personal transformation. A voice came to her one day and said “start growing”, so she began to work with psilocybin through cultivating and creating a deep relationship with the mushrooms. She went through many dark nights of the soul during this time around her purpose and “who she was” and made the best and yet scariest decision of her life to step into serving plant medicine full time.
Madelyne was then called to the Red Road path lineage through the Native American Church (NAC) and was blessed to be connected to and trained under a wise elder from the NAC out of Hawaii. She became certified as Fearless Spider Spirit, Medicine Women. Under the NAC guidelines and protection, she has been serving Psilocybin to individuals and groups who are called to stepping in fully into “doing the work” towards true personal and collective transformation through macro psilocybin journeys and post micro dosing with integration and coaching. She is also in collaboration with a gifted horse medicine women who integrates both plant medicine and horse medicine for CEOs and Executives who are called to a sacred path towards self awareness and transformational change.
It is her deepest honor and life mission to provide personal access to everyone called to these glorious tools of self-discovery and is so grateful to her partner for growing the medicine with so much love, mindfulness, and devotion.
Madelyne has walked the path of her own deep awakening and brings that personal experience to each ceremony. Her belief is, “as one heals, we all heal.”

Nupa Ram
Mayan Teacher
Caught by the Maya web of wisdom in the pre-turning of the age around 2000 in Tulum, Nupa dove quite deep in his knowledge to the extent of creating a collective experiment based on the Maya Cosmovision called Galctic Peace Garden: an intentional community of healers, yogis and artists during 15 years, in Tulum, Mexico. There he could see the enormous potential of applying this wisdom to community spaces.
From 2008, launched Mayarama, a space in Festivals designed to broadcast the fruit of this intentional community. In 2013 Published “Advaita Maya”, sending out to the world a new perspective on Maya calendarism.
Nupa shares his knowledge in Festivals (regular at Ometeotl, Mexico and Boom Festival, Portugal , Eclipse Festivals here and there) and also through occasional workshops.
He has about to launch a new movement based on this wisdom called “Amaya” designed to unify “through time”, all types of community spaces including schools, prisons, hospitals, gatherings and all working spaces.
He believes “Maya” is a wisdom that is designed to be unfolded in these specific times carrying a elasticity that allows co-creation and experimentation.
His aim is to create a new paradigm of time independent from the ancestral dogma but also beyond pre-defined ideas of superficial new age ultra-spirituality.
Nupa is also known as Nuno Param, Mantra/kirtan/sound journey musician. Author of Gathika Vimana a Sound Journey project for festivals and recently “Bhaktika”.
