Mystical Peru & Machu Picchu
8-21st November 2009
– the Empire of the Incas
Our visit to this mystical land of the Incas, with its ancient Sun and Moon Temples, its mountainside terraces high in the Andes, and its sheer beauty, is truly memorable.
Highlights include:
Spending time in the Sacred Valley
• Full Moon ceremony and initiations
• Attunements at Machu Picchu
• Lake Titicaca
In 1911 the legendary Lost City of the Incas, Machu Picchu, was discovered, which stimulated the internal road to a new state of consciousness and acknowledged by many as a spiritual haven. In this living initiation centre, powerful energies, which are still very much alive, are accessible. On this scared journey we will view the 'Gate to the Sun', Cuzco 'The Plexus of the World', Sacsayhuaman in the Sacred Valley of the Incas, Ollantaytambo, and Pisac. The legendary Lake Titicaca beckons, and powerful Sillustani. (See Amazon option below.)
It is thought that at one time, prior to the Atlantean demise, there existed a land with advanced technology, whose people gazed at the stars and planets, who dreamed reality into life, who revered gold along with the Sun, the Moon, the wind, the seasons and rhythms, the harmony and beauty of our magnetic Earth and Nature. With our own Shaman we will formulate our own personal cosmologies. Included are powerful meditations, initiations, shamanic rituals and ancient ceremonies.
Peru contains the Mystical, Magical and Mysterious all at the same time, so come and join us for your once in a lifetime Spiritual Journey - experience a real shift in consciousness.
