The Ojo de Dios workshop at Lunita is a sacred weaving of vision, creativity, and spirit, creating a "God's Eye" from yarn and sticks as a meditative, hands-on practice. Here's what it offers, and the tradition behind it. (It pairs with cacao and creative practice.)

Is weaving a meditation, like yoga?

There's something quietly powerful about making with your hands. As you weave an Ojo de Dios, intention and rhythm settle the mind, a moving meditation that leaves you with a tangible symbol of focus, vision, and protection to carry home. It's accessible to everyone, no artistic experience needed. That settling is a small version of what a longer stay offers, and the Earth Soul Revival jungle retreat extends it into a whole stay at the rhythm of the earth.

Honoring its roots

The Ojo de Dios has deep roots in the Wixárika (Huichol) people of Mexico, for whom it holds sacred meaning. The workshop honors that origin with respect, offered as a meditative, creative practice rather than a claim on its specific ceremonial use. Within a retreat alongside ceremony and integration, it adds a grounding, creative thread. Book a discovery call to learn more. Workshops like this are woven into longer stays, and a personal retreat at Lunita can hold as much or as little making as you want.
