ALIGN | BALANCE | CONNECT
The Journey of the Four Directions - Sacred Valley, Peru
6th - 16th February 2026
Come and experience an
extraordinary journey
Step into a transformative experience guided by the ancient wisdom of the Andean Cross — The Chakana.
Over 11 immersive days, we will walk the sacred spiral of the four directions, meeting the elements of Water, Earth, Air and Fire and their associated allies. We will be calling on the sacred masculine and feminine, grounding into the earth grid and also calling on the heaven energy of our central sun and the star energy of our galactic brothers and sisters. Each day will invite you to embody the essence and teachings of these forces, awakening deeper clarity, connection, and purpose. Through ceremony, nature immersion, and ancestral guidance, you’ll:
-
Align with the energies of the South, West, North, and East
-
Explore the spiritual and practical gifts of each element
-
Receive teachings from local wisdom keepers
-
Integrate ancient Andean cosmology into your personal path
This is more than a retreat — it’s a pilgrimage of soul remembrance, a reconnection to the sacred map within.
Through a beautiful combination of Q'ero Ceremonies held with Q'ero Pampamisayoc Santos Apaza and his wife Ermentania, visiting sacred mountains and high energy temple spaces, we will walk a path of honoring the sacred both within ourselves and in the environment. As we learn how to connect to ourselves and our reality in this way, a deep remembering can happen of the way the ancestors have walked.
Our home for our stay
Earth Tones Peru Retreat Space
A breathtaking retreat space nestled in the Scared Valley in the ancient town of Ollantaytambo. The town is set amongst a network of water channels, still with original cobble stone streets and a has a beautiful river running through it. Ollantay offers a direct train link to Aguas Calientes, the small town at the base of Macchu Picchu and also has it's own beautiful temple site that sits at the back of the town, offering more water channels inside, stepped terraces that lead to a phenomenal view of the surrounding area and intricately cut stone that can't be explained.
The town offers a colourful market, selling local textiles, sacred items for your alter, such as crystals, traditional totems, drums rattles and more. Also many coffee shops and places to rest on integration days
Just a few hours hike from Earth Tones, you can walk up to the ancient site of PumaMarka or for a shorter walk you can access the Pinkaylluna ruins that sit behind the temple.
