Ñaupa Tantanakuy Apukuna
Third Annual Gathering of Ancestral Wisdom
Thirteen Elders from Seven Continents
15-24 September 2025
Sacred Valley, Cusco, Peru
Join thirteen grandparents, healers, and guardians of ancestral wisdom, in ceremony at a global gathering for the healing of the planet. The ancestral call that resonates in your hearts gives you the opportunity to restore a sacred relationship with ancestral medicine, wisdom, and traditions. Elders from diverse lineages and territories will share their light, helping you to remember through the transmission of healing traditions and knowledge that will elevate your physical, spiritual, and emotional lives.
We have forgotten how to live consciously, distanced from the ancestral wisdom that teaches us to relate to life, to the elements, and to every living being: plants, stones, animals, and more. Our grandparents will share ancestral ceremonies of meditation, medicine circles, and sacred practices that work in communion with nature. These techniques, which include movements and sound, will allow you to heal, harmonize, and integrate your lives.
Throughout our sacred encounter, honored Wisdom Keepers will facilitate traditional healing sessions, guiding you in the remembrance and expansion of new ways to experience life. They will provide tools and skills to accompany us as we transition into a new era of humanity, the Rainbow family, in perfect harmony with life and nature.
Qoyari: Queen of the Inka Nature Wisdom Lineage
With Ñusta Paqos, Elizabeth Jenkins & Rochelle Schieck
9-16 August 2025
Blue Spirit Retreat Center, Costa Rica
"Somewhere between ocean waves and ancient winds, she calls." Qoyari — a living myth, a sacred remembering, a doorway into the heart of the Andean feminine.
Join the WiraQocha Foundation for a profound seven-day retreat immersed in the sacred feminine energy of the Inka tradition. Guided by three revered Ñust’a Paqos or Andean Priestesses, Doña Marcosa Flores Pauqar, Doña Zenovia Cruz Condori, and Doña Agustina Ccapa Champi, this gathering offers a rare opportunity to receive direct transmissions from the living lineage of Qoyari, Queen of the Inka Nature Wisdom.
Through oral teachings, traditional despacho (offering) ceremonies, and energetic initiations, you will awaken the sacred feminine within and around you. You will connect with the spirit of Nature as a teacher and ally, and attune to the primordial forces of creation that pulse through the Earth.
This is more than a retreat. It is a return to what is timeless, powerful, and deeply alive. It is a call to rise in your feminine essence — rooted, radiant, and in harmony with the living world. Let the wisdom of the Ñust’as reveal your strength, nourish your dreams, and illuminate the path ahead.

In the Power of the Chumpi Stones online course, you will learn how to open the energy centers using five Chumpi Stones (or so-called Mullu Khuyas) and connect them through bands of power. This sacred ritual, known as Ñawi Kichay (opening the eyes) and Chumpi Away (weaving the belts), has been passed down for centuries from teacher to student in the Q’ero tradition as part of the training to become a Chumpi Paqo.
Meeting with the Mountains is a 6-day spiritual journey in the majestic Alps of Austria and Germany. This experience includes powerful ceremonies, rituals, and energy practices rooted in ancient Andean traditions. During this journey you will learn foundational Inca spiritual practices, visit sacred power places and connect with their wisdom and engage with ancient legends of the mountains to bring lightness into the collective.
Hatun Karpay means Great Power or Great Transformation. This spiritual pilgrimage in Peru follows a structured path of initiations and rituals that help you deepen your spirituality, unlock your full potential, and cultivate personal power. The journey consists of three paths: Hatun Karpay right path, Hatun Karpay middle path, and Hatun Karpay left path. The full program runs from 19 August to 15 September 2025, and can be completed in one year or over several years, allowing you to integrate the teachings at your own pace.

Walking in the World of Living Energy
With Juan and Ivan Nunez del Prado
22 February — 03 March
Athens Greece
Life is an energetic flow, but when heavy energy accumulates, it blocks our vitality, leaving us feeling stuck. The Andean Tradition teaches us to clear this heaviness, restoring harmony and balance. As Juan Nuñez del Prado says, “It’s like cleaning your house. What matters is not where the dust comes from, but the act of clearing it.” By releasing stagnant energy, we create space for healing, clarity, and transformation.
Imagine moving through life with ease, free from past burdens, open to new possibilities. Andean wisdom guides us to well-being — not as the absence of problems, but as a deep state of balance that helps us to flourish. Joy and curiosity become essential elements of our evolution.
Join Walking in the World of Living Energy with Ivan & Juan Nuñez del Prado to remove heavy energetic blocks, deepen self-connection, and cultivate a life of harmony, purpose, and authentic expression.

A Heirophant Publishing Event
Sedona Mago Retreat Center
Sedona Arizona, USA
02-04 May 2025
Shamans Directory Members Juniper Stokes and Heather Knies invite you for a weekend of mystery, healing and transformation with other leading shamanic teachers of our day, including HeatherAsh Amara, Jorge Luis Delgado, Dr. Steven Farmer and more.
Long before religions were organized there were shamans. Today, they still practice a form of direct experience and revelation that dates back thousands of years. They serve in a unique capacity combining the skills of psychologist, spiritual adviser, healer, philosopher and friend.
Across the world, ancient shamans used rituals, tools, and wisdom to provide guidance and healing for the people of their tribes. Although many of their traditions were lost to the world with the progress of science and technology, the spark of their fire never completely went out.
Modern day shamanic practitioners have reached back through time to reclaim these practices and integrate them into our contemporary lives. Under their wise direction, people can learn to quickly shift their perspective, remove stubborn inner blockages, and step into lives of ease, flow, and real magic. Join them this Spring in Sedona and experience it for yourself!
