Shamanic Journey to Machupicchu

Shamanic practice in the Andes is rooted in ritual, with a sequence of ceremonies designed to shift personal reality and support a more fulfilling way of life. Guided by the Cuzco shamans, this journey is based on the Andean principles of Llankay (Work), Yachay (Wisdom), and Munay (Love), known together as Allin Kausay — “the power of love.”

MUNAYKI: a path of healing and integration

MUNAYKI is a personal process of awakening consciousness and receiving ancestral wisdom. In Quechua, it refers to the “power of love,” the inner force that helps create our reality. Through nine initiation rites, this experience supports healing, harmonizing internal energies, and balancing emotions while deepening connection with Pachamama, or Mother Earth.

The nine initiation rites

First Rite: The call from within
The journey begins with a ceremony of unification with Pachamama, a symbolic welcome that honors the relationship between mother and children.

Second Rite: Liberation and healing of our emotions
Through water and shamanic techniques, this ceremony supports emotional flow, body awareness, and energy cleansing.

Third Rite: Harmonization of the chakras
Andean energy work is carried out through the placement of stones called Chumpis or Khuyas, associated with the healing of the physical, energetic, and emotional body.

Fourth Rite: Rite of the Seer
The coca leaf reading ceremony offers insight, acceptance, and release. Meditation is also practiced in energetic places.

Fifth Rite: Guardians of the Day
This meditation-based energy transmission connects participants with the lineage of the shamans and teaches the balance of feminine and masculine energies.

Sixth Rite: Keeper of Wisdom
According to the myths and legends of the last shamans in Cusco, the children of the earth are called to return to Pachamama and learn, regardless of color, race, or nationality. Optional San Pedro or Wachuma ceremony.

Seventh Rite: Guardian of the Earth
A ceremony of self-love and commitment, sharing teachings on the cosmos through ancestral alchemy passed down by the shaman teachers of the Qeros community.

Eighth Rite: Guardian of the Stars
A ceremony of expansion that connects heaven and earth and represents the rainbow energy bands.

Ninth Rite: Rite of the Creator
The final ceremony integrates feminine and masculine energies, honoring Pachamama and the sacred mountains while awakening inner light and personal creation.
