LEGAL: In Mexico, the General Law on Linguistic Rights of Indigenous Peoples, along with the Constitution and other legal frameworks, recognizes the right of indigenous peoples to preserve their traditions, including their spiritual practices and the use of sacred medicines in ritual contexts. However, the legality of conducting ceremonies with ancestral medicines depends on several key factors:
Recognition of Indigenous Customary Law
Article 2 of the Mexican Constitution establishes that indigenous peoples have the right to preserve their normative systems and traditional practices, as long as they do not violate fundamental rights or constitutional provisions.
Regulated Substances and Traditional Medicine
Some sacred medicines contain psychoactive substances regulated by the General Health Law and the 1971 Convention on Psychotropic Substances. However, their use in indigenous rituals may be permitted under recognized traditional use principles.
However, the use of these substances by non-indigenous individuals or outside ritual settings may be penalized.
