Andean Wisdom, Healing, and Spiritual Practices
With Wilbert Salas Atasi and Me
A Shamans Directory Offering
9-weeks on Saturdays, 24 Jan - 21 March 2026
2pm Peru Time, 8pm Central European Time
I am delighted to share a special opportunity: a 9-week online course, Core Principles of Andean Wisdom, Healing, and Spiritual Practices, with Paqo, medicine man, and ceremonialist Wilbert Salas Atasi from Peru. I am honored to serve as his teaching assistant throughout this journey. This immersive program offers a deep exploration of the Andean spiritual path. Whether you are just beginning your spiritual journey or are already walking the Andean path, this immersive program will inspire and transform you through the depth of wisdom that Wilbert so generously shares and transmits.
Throughout the nine weeks, you will:
- Discover the core principles of the Andean path — Yachay (sacred wisdom), Munay (sacred love), Llankay (sacred service), and Ayni (sacred reciprocity).
- Learn to work with the Mesa, Khuyas, feathers, and other sacred instruments for healing and ceremony.
- Connect with Spiritual Allies, including the Apus, Ñustas, and Spirit Animals, to receive guidance and support.
- Understand and honor the Sacred Spaces, the Four Directions, and the sacred symbolism of the Chakana Southern Cross.
- Receive a Karpay initiation, an energy transmission to awaken your inner medicine and empowers your path forward.
- Engage in sacred practices, including Despacho offerings and the Seven-Stone Healing to restore balance and harmony.
Our program is filled with profound teachings from the Andean wisdom traditions. Each week, we will walk together through the core principles and practices, culminating in a sacred ceremony at the March Equinox — a powerful portal for clarifying our intentions and supporting their manifestation as we open the cycle of growth and renewal.
