Victoriano Piaguaje Yaiguaje Colombia

Taita Victoriano is an ancestral healer of the Siona people from the lower Putumayo region. He received his knowledge from his father, Laureano Piaguaje, who passed away at over 107 years old.

With a profound connection to nature and its guardian spirits, he has dedicated his life to studying what he calls the “university of the jungle,” mastering it through the science of Yagé. As a powerful shaman, he uses visions received during ceremonies to deeply analyze the condition of his patients. All of his ceremonies are conducted exclusively through Icaros—sacred chants that carry immense healing power.
