esoteric meaning of corn
Native Americans have lived on corn for centuries and have revered it in their religious and funerary rites and in their sacrifices to Mother Earth, water and rain.
An ancient tradition tells that some North American native communities, when a difficult birth occurred, burned ears of red corn at the entrance of the house of the woman in labor to speed up the process. The Bororos, originally from Brazil, believed that if they did not bless the new corn by a healer, and eat it, their death would be inevitable.
Meanwhile, the Seminoles, originally from Florida, used to hold an annual purification festival where they performed the green corn dance and consumed part of the new harvest.
Currently corn continues to have a great importance in Latin American peoples. In the nutritional aspect, in the preparation of delicious dishes, such as tamales, arepas, tortillas, porridge, soups and breads, among others. Likewise, certain traditions and rituals with corn continue to be practiced.
Colombian peasants hang the largest cob of the harvest in the kitchen as a symbol of prosperity and an amulet of protection against droughts.
According to the santera tradition, the cob, toasted and adorned with a red ribbon, keeps away the disease and if you want to keep San Lázaro happy, you have to put one behind the door of the house.
Another tradition indicates that an ear of corn should be placed inside the cradle to protect the baby from negative forces. A bunch of ears of corn hung from a mirror brings good luck to the home, and a necklace made from dried red corn kernels prevents nosebleeds. Next, we present several rituals with corn that can be performed at home.
