When not in use, the mesa is tied up into a compact bundle for easy portability. This "tie" allows shamans to carry their sacred altar with them, symbolizing the ability to bring healing and spiritual practices wherever they go.
The tying process itself is often a ritual, with the practitioner invoking protection, gratitude, or connection to the spirits.

Significance of the Mesa Tie:
The act of tying the mesa represents the integration of the spiritual and physical realms, binding the energies of the sacred items into a unified whole. It is both a practical and symbolic action, emphasizing the interconnectedness of life and the practitioner’s role as a bridge between worlds.
