Soul Loss

Soul loss is a serious affliction in the eyes of Aztec and Maya shamans. Looking into the center of Reina, you can see the full figure of a woman who lost her soul while astral traveling. Scanning around Reina you can see the faces of other lost souls, including animals.

Aztec shamans believe a lost soul is trapped in a cave by witchcraft. Maya shamans believe the same with a slight twist. Soul retrieval rituals are performed in an attempt to reunite the soul with the human owner. If the soul is not retrieved for the body, death will eventually occur.

Many people ask what is the difference between soul and spirit. Simply put, spirit energy gives the body life, soul energy gives the body personality.
