CAVALCANTI, Tito Rodrigues de Albuquerque. The skin of the earth. Junguiana [online]. 2023, vol.41, n.1, pp.31-38.  Epub 29-Nov-2024. ISSN 2595-1297.  https://doi.org/10.70435/junguiana.v41i1.15.

The experience with plants of power enables contact with another type of sensibility than the one we are used to in the western world. The planet’s environmental situation is presented in an imagery and emotional way. From this, an approximation is made with analytical psychology, symbolic language and the knowledge of the indigenous people of the Yanomami ethnic group. The possibility of extinction of life on Earth has been a growing concern. How to avoid it within current political and economic conditions is still a problem to be solved. Some proposals are presented and compared with indigenous knowledge. The need to understand and assimilate this ancestral wisdom seems to be an essential contribution to finding solutions.

Palavras-chave : Climate change; indigenous mythology psychodelic substances; shamanism; analytical psychology.
