Indigenous Spirituality and Feminine Participation
Keywords:
indigenous, women, Pachamama, ritual, spiritualityAbstract
This paper seeks to examine the perception that indigenous communities have of the universe, the earth and human beings as emerging from the union of the feminine and the masculine, a vision that considers women on an equal status to men. Therefore, this article analyzes aspects related to runic culture, ritualism, Andean spiritual representation, ethnoastronomy, Andeancosmogony and ancestral geocosmic visions. The text seeks to underscore the importance of such ancestral knowledge as an essential tool to better understand ourselves, as well as our surroundings.
