An Immersive Journey through the Andean Medicine Wheel

Join Alrina from Sacred Ember for a transformative 1-day retreat where you’ll step into the ancient wisdom of the Andean Medicine Wheel. Explore this sacred map that has been used for millennia to guide healing, balance, and awakening.

What you’ll experience:

– Opening Sacred Space: Learn how to open and hold Sacred Space through invocation, calling in the archetypes of the Four Directions, and honoring Pachamama (Mother Earth), Spirit, our helping spirits, and power animals.
– The Wiracocha: Discover the luminous energy field known as the Wiracocha — learning how to expand into this sacred space, how to maintain it, and how it can support you in daily life.

– Journeys with the Archetypes: Through guided journeys, meet each of the sacred archetypes — Serpent, Jaguar, Hummingbird, and Eagle/Condor — and begin a dialogue with their wisdom.
– Teachings of the Directions: Explore what each direction of the Medicine Wheel holds, and how its gifts can help you release, heal, and expand into new possibilities.
– Fire Ceremony: Learn and participate in a Fire Ceremony, specifically aimed at embedding the teachings of each direction, so that they live within you long after the retreat.
– Ayni or Sacred Reciprocity: Understand what it means to come into right relationship with yourself, others, and the world — embracing all aspects of the Medicine Wheel and walking in Ayni, or sacred reciprocity.
