Lupuna is a very popular plant in the Amazon. The inhabitants and locals of the area have been building rafts and canoes with their wood for decades and decades, and even the seeds of the Lupuna are used to cure fever, asthma, diarrhea, dysentery and kidney problems. Currently the Lupuna is used for furniture.
 
Lupuna is the Giant of the Amazon, and therefore very fittingly, its spirit avatar is also a Giant. Lupuna’s medicine is very versatile, helping stabilize, protect, straighten and strengthen, as well as calm and ground you. You can call on Lupuna to help strengthen and straighten the mind and the body as well as to help you ground and relax. You can call on Lupuna for just about anything you need help with, as it also helps with connecting to the heart. Attached to its enormous trunk are vast buttress roots, the visible parts of which grow up to several meters in height and extend up to 4 or 5 meters radially from the trunk. Its roots must be so huge as they support a trunk that is 5-10 meters in diameter. It would take 10-20 grown men to form a circle around a grown Lupuna Blanca’s trunk. At 45 meters above the ground it begins to form its crown. At this point massive branches separate from the trunk and extend in a sideways motion, as though a giant umbrella had been opened above the rain-forest’s canopy. In the heights of its crown thrives its very own miniature eco-system.
 
Uses: Its seeds, leaves and resin are used as medicinal herbs to cure, among others, fever, asthma, diarrhea, dysentery or kidney problems. Even in some places like Brazil, the bark infusion is popularly used for the treatment of cancer and inflammations. Due to its size and presence, it occupies a very important position in the Amazon rainforest ecosystem.
