An Icaro sung by a curandero (medicine healer) from Raboya, a village deep in the Amazon. This Icaro was passed down through his familial line of generations of curanderos. An Icaro is a shamanic song passed down from elder shamans, dreams, or spirits, which are used to produce visions and visual displays of the inner ailments of a person’s body so the shaman can heal these patterns.
This particular Icaro is a song to clean the body and take out all that causes pain, including physical ailments, confusion, crossed ideas, and sadness. Sung during a healing session.
