Day 2 – Connection With Nature at the Temple of the Moon

In the morning, we begin our spiritual journey with a special visit to a hidden forest near the mystical Temple of the Moon. We will be guided by a Qhapaq Ñan expert and translator, and a “High Misayoc”, the highly respected Andean spiritual healer and leader of ancient ceremonies.

In the silence of the forest, you’ll be invited to remove your shoes and walk barefoot upon the sacred Andean earth. This direct contact with the Pachamama opens the energetic channels that connect you to the living cosmos and the multi-universe.

The Misayoc will perform a powerful chakra alignment ceremony, allowing you to attune to your inner power and cosmic vibration. You will feel an energy shift, which is a sacred opening to the unseen vibrations that surrounds us. After this profound connection, we return to Cusco for a delicious lunch and to rest up.

In the afternoon, we will visit the “Koricancha”, the Inca Temple of the Sun, and explore the mystical cobblestoned streets of Cusco. This is where original Inca stonework whisper ancient tales of times gone by to those who have the ability to listen.

Day 3 – A Portal to Ancestral Wisdom and A Fire Ceremony in The Sacred Valley

Today, after a delicious breakfast at the hotel, we will travel into the heart of the Sacred Valley of the Incas. The next valley along from Cusco. In the peaceful energy of this awe inspiring valley, the surrounding mountains speak and the winding river sings.

Our first stop is the town ofChinchero., An authentic weaving village rich in weaving traditions and the ancient way of life. We will then  visit the spectacular Salt Pans of Maras, where mineral salt is still extracted using ancestral methods. Next up is Moray, an ancient ceremonial site dedicated to fertility and the feminine creative energy of the earth.

Lunch will be served in Urubamba, followed by a visit to the ancient Inca town of Ollantaytambo.  This cobblestoned town includes  imposing archaeolgcal site that was a temple complex carved into the rocky mountainside.

Before settling into our hotel, we will climb to one of Ollantaytambo’s sacred temples. As twilight descends, we join our High Misayoc to prepare for the Fire Ceremony. Wearing authentic masks that symbolize the many different facets of the self, we will participate in a powerful ancient ritual of purification and rebirth. This ancestral fire ceremony will cleanse the spirit, and the stars above guide us perfectly into the calm and renewal.

Day 4 – Gratitude to Pachamama in a Traditional Quechua Community.

Today we give thanks to the Pachamama, the earth goddess who gives us life to us all. We will depart early for a one-hour drive to an Andean community in the highlands above the Sacred Valley. Accompanied by our spiritual guide and High Misayoc, we will be welcomed into a space of sacred geometry where sound, intention, and earth combine in unique synergy.

To prepare the ceremony, the Misayoc blows into the “pututo” (conch shell), calling the sacred energies of the Apus (mountain spirits) and the cosmos. This is a sacred ancestral ceremony of deep harmony that allow us to align ourselves with the vibration of the universe. A sacred offering to Pachamama is then prepared with coca leaves, different grains, and flowers. Each with its own symbolic meaning. In reciprocity, we express our deepest gratitude for the abundance and wisdom of the earth, where we live.

After the ceremony, we will share a traditional meal in the community. A delicous organic lunch lovingly prepared by our Quechua family hosts. It will be accompanied by traditional music and songs that uplifts the spirit and the soul.

With our hearts full of joy, we Will then board the train from Ollantaytambo to Aguas Calientes, the gateway to Machu Picchu. A comfortable hotel awaits us so we can restore our energy and rest the body before the next day’s pilgrimage to this magnificent Inca citadel.

Machu Picchu is world-famous for its magnificent  beauty and mystery. This extraordinary Inca temple was especially constructed to align with the stars, and be in perfect harmony with the cosmos. For approximately four hours, we explore the archaeological site with its plazas, temples, and terraces. A site where each giant stone is  portal to the spiritual genius of the Incas. Your guide will show exactly how astronomy, architecture, and sacred geometry come together to uncover an elevated understanding of life and the universe.

After our impressive  visit, we will return to Aguas Calientes for a relaxed lunch before boarding the train back to Ollantaytambo. Our private transport will take us  us once more to Cusco, where we Will spend our final evening in the embrace of the Andes mountains.
