A Series of Seven Teachings
A Shamans Directory Online Course Offering
With Pampamesayoq Medicine Man Wilbert Salas Atasi
and Special Guest Don Mariano Quispe Flores
Wednesdays and Saturdays beginning 20 May 2026
In the Andean mystical traditions, the number seven holds profound sacred significance. While four represents the cardinal directions of the Chakana Cross, Tawantin, seven reveals a deeper energetic layer of existence. Known as Qanchis in Quechua, this sacred number is reflected throughout both the natural and spiritual worlds — in the stars, the balance of masculine and feminine forces, the mountains and waters, the rainbow’s rays, the inner layers of Pachamama, the human energy centers, and the cycle of seven days.Following our deeply enriching course, Core Principles of Andean Wisdom, Healing, and Spiritual Practices, with Pampamesayoq, ceremonialist, and master healer and teacher Wilbert Salas Atasi, it became clear there is more to share.
For those called to walk the path of Andean cosmology and living ancestral traditions, this new series offers an opportunity to deepen both understanding and embodied practice. With the devotion shared between Wilbert and myself, we are honored to present this new teaching series on The Sacred Number Seven in Andean Cosmology. The course offers a rare opportunity to meet and learn from an extraordinary Elder. We are deeply honored to welcome esteemed Kurak Aqulleq Don Mariano Quispe Flores as a guest teacher. Now in his mid-eighties, he carries a lifetime of wisdom rooted in the living Q’eros traditions. His presence embodies love, vitality, and profound knowledge, bringing connection, joy, and inspiration wherever he goes.
This seven session online course includes a journey through:
- Qanchis Punkus — the seven energetic gates of the body
- Qanchis Waras — the seven inner layers of Pachamama
- Qanchis Apus — the seven sacred mountain spirits
- Qanchis Ñustas — the seven powerful goddesses
- Qanchis Paqarinas — the seven springs of new life
- Qanchis Phunchay Hampiy — the seven days of healing
- Qanchis Chaska — the seven stars of the Pleiades
This journey invites deep learning and connection with the spirit allies of Andean cosmology, as well as in your own landscape, supporting personal integration, healing work, and ceremonial practice.Whether you are new or experienced, you are warmly invited. No prior training or a Mesa medicine bundle is required — only an open heart and sincere curiosity. I will be present to support the live sessions, with recordings available for those who are unable to join in real time.
