PERU 2020!
Walking in the Footsteps of the Ancients:
Awakening the Amaru Medicine Within
May 14-27 2020
From the Sacred Valley... to Lake Titicaca... to Aramu Muru...and Colca Canyon!
A Journey of Awakening awaits you in this Sacred Land...
From the high Andes to the mystical Lake Titicaca area of Peru, this journey takes you to ancient sacred sites and places of immense power, where the land, the mountains, and waters are alive with archetypal energies that spiritually activate us. It is in these awakened elevations that we can experience the axis mundi, where Heaven and Earth unite.
Join us on this amazing quest where we will source deeply in this magical land from the knowledge of the ancient wisdom-keepers of Peru; and learn to activate the "Amaru" medicine within - that inner power to heal our past and step into our truest self and divinity. In the pre-Incan Aymara culture of southern Peru, "Amaru" represents the serpent, and the "serpentine" life force and medicine of the divine core we carry within. It is this spiritual activation that is so needed in these times of tremendous change; to awaken to our own inner power to heal and navigate the chaos in the world around us - with greater balance, and peace.
We invite you to come and be a part of profoundly beautiful indigenous ceremonies and rituals, where we can learn how to more deeply honor the sacred relationship of reciprocity with the Pachamama, our Mother Earth... and with all beings.
With our special Peruvian spiritual teacher and guide, Silvia Calisaya Chuquimia, a direct descendant the ancient Pre-Incan Aymara culture of southern Peru, we will learn the true symbology of the Incan Cross, called the "Chakana", and discover its mysteries and its rich spiritual codes to live by. Born and raised in a small highland village, Silvia left when she was a young woman to pursue her education and professional life, and then returned to the traditional spiritual Aymara ways and teachings. A brilliant educator, Silivia travels the world sharing the ancient knowledge of her people, and the rich history of this Peruvian cosmology. She is an expert in the ancient art of reading coca leaves for divination and healing, and is the proprietor of the Coca Leaf Museum in Puno, Peru.
JOIN TWO AMAZING SHAMANIC MEDICINE WOMEN - Pat Cockrell and Petra LeBeau, Sacred Quests co-hosts, as they travel with the world renowned female Peruvian shaman and teacher, Silvia Calisaya Chuquimia, from Aymara culture of the Lake Titicaca area of Peru. Along with our experienced tour guides, we will be accompanied by Paqos, the Peruvian wisdom-keepers who are the healer-priests of the Andes, to many of Peru's most powerful sacred sites within the Sacred Valley and then on to Lake Titicaca to learn more about the Aymara pre-Incan culture in that region.

May 14 – Day 1 Morning arrival at Cusco Airport - transport to Ollantaytambo
We will be waiting for you with open arms at the airport as you arrive in the city of Cusco, known as the navel of the Incan Empire. From Cusco you will be taken in our private tour bus to the village of Ollantaytambo in the heart of the Sacred Valley, where the lower elevation makes it easier to acclimate. Here, we will help you get settled into our beautiful hotel to rest after your travels.
May 15 – Day 2 Naupa Iglesia - and Ollantaytambo Fortress
Our focus on day two is to set clear intentions for our spiritual quest; for both our personal journey, and our experience as a group. Today we travel to a sacred ruin off the beaten track, to the ancient site of Naupa Iglesia, a mysterious doorway carved with great precision into the side of a mountain, known as the "Window into Paradise"; a spirit door similiar to ones found in Egypt and Persia. Called a 'Hauca" in Peru, it is a place of great spiritual significance - where the convergence of powerful electro-magnetic currents of the earth are located. Here, Silvia will lead us in a ceremony of spiritual cleansing to open and clear the way for us to experience a deeply transformational journey.
May 16 – Day 3 Earth Temple of Moray - Pisac Market and Ruins
The ancient Peruvians had a profound relationship and connection to the Pachamama, our Mother Earth, as the Temple Of Moray reveals. Going further into the Sacred Valley, we will travel to visit this place of rich feminine energy, and through ritual ceremony with Silvia and our Paqos, we will plant the "seeds of our becoming " and our intentions in this temple of fertility. Here, we will practice connecting with our own inner body and grounding deeply into the Pachamama. Then an afternoon visit to the village of Pisac to explore and shop.

It is believed that there still exists a thriving city there on the spiritual plane, and one can feel the presence of its multi-dimensional energies. Here, we will be led on a special guided vision-quest after taking a tour of the site. *For those who may have been to Machu Picchu before, this provides a free day to relax and explore the area on your own.
May 18 – Day 5 Cusco... Sacsayhuaman and Q'enqo Temple
Explore the city of Cusco, called the navel of the Incan Empire; rich in history, culture, beautiful old world architecture and plazas. Morning visit to the pre-Incan archeological site of Sacsayhuaman on the edge of Cusco, Here, huge stones seamlessly were fit together in three long walls that represent the Ukhu Pacha (underworld/subconscious), Kay Pacha (middle/material world), and the Hanaq Pacha (upper world/superconscious) Then on to the nearby Temple of Q'enko with it's zig-zag labyrinth passage ways used in ancient rituals.

May 21 – Day 8 Lake Titicaca – Floating Islands of Urus -
Amantani Island As you will gather from reading below, this is a very important destination on our journey, as we will work with our Aymaru healer and teacher, Silvia Calisaya Chuquimia. here in her homeland on the shores of Lake Titicaca. Much legend and lore surrounds this mystical lake. In Andean mythology Lake Titicaca is the birth place of the Incas, where the gods Mallku Kapac and Mama Ocllo emerged from the lake to start the Incan Empire. Legend also has it that the remains of the Lemurian civilization lie at the bottom of Lake Titicaca, and at the time Lemuria was sinking, one of the seven Great Masters of Lemuria, Lord Aramu Muru, was given the mission to bring the sacred Golden Solar Disc from the Temple of Illumination to Lake Titicaca for safe keeping. During the time of the Incas, the Solar Disc was transferred to Cusco, and placed in the Qorikancha, the main Temple of the Sun, where it stayed until the coming of the Spanish. At that time, it was returned to Lake Titicaca and placed in the Eternal Etheric City deep inside the Lake. The golden disk is reputed to contain great cosmic wisdom, much as a galatic computer, which now in our times is being re-activated. There are many sightings in the area of UFOs and bright lights going in and out of the lake. This special lake contains the crossroads of two of the earth’s greatest ley lines, and it is considered to be the sacral chakra of our planet - holding the embryonic womb space for the earth. The healing waters of Lake Titicaca are considered sacred, and it is a living well of water sourcing deep from within the earth.
May 22 – Day 9 Lake Titicaca – Tequile Island...Puno City
A morning boat ride across Lake Titicaca to the beautiful scenic island of Tequile to visit the natives on this island in their quaint village. We will learn here about the traditions of these people who continue to live in the ways of their ancient culture and still wear their traditional dress. Tequile is on the UNESCO World Heritage list.
May 23 – Day 10 Puno... Aramu Muru "Gate of the Gods" -
Much of our sacred quest culminates here at Aramu Muru, called "Ajayu Marka" by the Aymara people. Known as a Stargate, or Gate of the Gods, it is considered a inter-dimensional doorway, or portal, through which the renowned high priest, Lord Aramu Muru, entered and was never seen again after hiding the The Golden Solar Disc from the Spanish in the depths of Lake Titicaca. The natives say that many great spiritual heroes have passed through this doorway into the land of the gods. It is here that we will do first an Earth Ceremony to the Pachamama, and then at the actual gate of Aramu Muru, we will go through the Activation of the Amaru Medicine (or kundalini). It is important for this day to wear a white dress or white clothing, or your native healers garb for this ceremony. Afterwards there will be ceremonial dancing and celebration!
May 24 – Day 11 Lake Titicaca Area – Aymara Elders... This morning we travel to an Aymara community to visit a group of Aymara elders and receive their blessings. Many of these people have never left their villages or traveled to a city. We will participate in an Ayni Fire Ceremony and join them in their native dances. We will learn from these wise ones more about the spiritual teachings of their ancient culture. A special initiation from the elders of this medicine tradition is available here.
May 25 – Day 12 Puno to Chivay
A free morning to relax in Puno before we travel to Chivay, Peru. Chivay is a town in the Colca valley, capital of the Caylloma province in the Arequipa region, Peru.

May 26 – Day 13 Chivay...Colca Canyon...Arequipa Early morning transport from Chivay to Colca Canyon. Colca Canyon is the canyon of the Colca River in southern Peru, located about 100 miles northwest of Arequipa. With a depth of 10,730 ft, it is deeper than the Grand Canyon. The Colca Valley is a colorful Andean valley with pre-Inca roots, still inhabited by people of the Collagua and the Cabana cultures. We will go to a special viewing spot at the canyon's edge, called Cruz del Condor, near the nests of the great condors to watch the soaring flights of these spectacular birds whose average wingspan is over 10 feet wide! At the canyon we will do our last ceremony to connect to the Three Worlds, Ukhu Pacha (underworld/subconscious), Kay Pacha (middle/material world), and the Hanaq Pacha (upper world/superconscious). In the afternoon we travel by bus to Arequipa, one of the largest cities in Peru. Considered to be one of the most beautiful old cities in the world, Arequipa is called the "White City" because its colonial buildings are built from a white volcanic stone.
