Sacred Cacti

Sacred cacti are specific cactus species, such as the Peyote, that hold cultural, spiritual, or religious significance for indigenous groups, particularly in North America. These cacti are often used in rituals, ceremonies, or subconscious practices due to their psychoactive properties, which can induce altered states of consciousness. Beyond their spiritual use, some sacred cacti are also valued for their resilience in harsh environments and their unique ecological roles. The term emphasizes respect for these plants' cultural importance and their natural beauty, highlighting their connection to human traditions and ecological systems.
