Hatun Qarpay

Peru Expedition • November 21-December 3, 2024 • $4,250

SACRED FEMININE WISDOM OF THE ANDES

Hatun Qarpay: The Great Initiation Ritual is a 12-day Peru quest facilitated annually by the Wiraqocha Foundation.

A journey into the Inka sacred geography of Peru and the wilderness of your soul.

This ancient ritual springs from a 6,000 year old tradition of nature mysticism in the Andes – designed to bring the individual into direct, intimate, personal and energetic relationship to the Divine through Great Nature herself. 

The Ten Day Great Initiation is the result of three decades of living, learning and loving the Inka way of life. It is the culmination of countless expeditions into the Q'ero clouds, hundreds of Hatun Qarpay initiations and thousands of Despacho ceremonies.

Study directly with Q'ero Apu & Ñust'a Paqos

Since 1992, Elizabeth B. Jenkins and the Wiraqocha Foundation have led close to 50 expeditions to Peru to experience the ancient initiation rite of the Hatun Qarpay.​

This year, we will experience amazing ceremony with our group of Q’ero women Paqos as we work with the powerful female sacred Apus of Mama Simona, Phutukusi, Waqay Willka (Veronica) and Pitusiray. Plus, we will take a deep dive into the Qoya lineages of Mama Runta, Mama Anawarqe, Chañan Qori Kuka and the Qoya Qori Kuka Lineages.

IMMORTAL SACRED FEMININE WISDOM
HATUN KARPAY: THE GREAT INITIATION
PERU 2024
ITINERARY

SPECIAL NOTE:
In May of 2014 Mama Simona--the ONLY female Apu (mountain spirit) in the Twelve Sacred Mountain System of Cuzco--opened her Misha (altar). Ever since that day, we at Wiraqocha Foundation, begin our Initiation Journey with ceremony to the Sacred Feminine Apus.

For 2024
We will begin in the SACRED MOON VALLEY of the INKAS with Waq’hay Willka. Once a powerful pre-Inka Priestess, she stopped the war of the seven tribes of the Moon Valley with her “Sacred Tears”—the meaning of her name—and her spirit is immortalized within her mountain. Nearby is Pitusiray, the Inka Princess who defied her father to love a lowly alpacaherd, Sawasiray. Together they became an immortal symbol and source of the power of unconditional love, two mountains where couples pilgrimage to this day for marital aid. We honor Phutuy Kusi (flowering JOY) the sacred feminine guardian mountain at the entrance to Machu Pikchu. Finally Mama Simona, a half Inka/half Spanish Priestess who’s spirit is imbued into Mama Simona Mountain in Cusco, is known as the primary female Apu whose job is to connect and integrate the living energy of all twelve Apus in the Sacred Apu System of the Sun Valley of Cuzco. She is the entry point and connection to Chañan Qori Kuka, founder of the Qoya Qori Kuka lineage of powerful sacred Queens.

These additional ceremonial days add immeasurably to our experience and provide a rare opportunity to work directly with female Q’ero Paqos and the Female Immortal Beings who are these Apus. We will experience traditional haywariquy (despacho) ceremonies and karpays to receive their unique wisdom and powerful energy transmissions. This year, and for the first time, we will work with QORI QOCHA, the sacred lake where the warrior priestess Chañan Qori Kuka took young Pachacuti to find his power, save Cusco city, and become the “World Transformer”. Here is where his alliance with the Pachacuti Ñust’as (the primordial forces of transformation) began!

ON NOVEMBER 21 You must take the EARLIEST flight from Lima to arrive in Cuzco by 7am --or as close as possible to that time. We will meet you at the airport and you will be taken directly to the hotel in Pisaq. Please provide your flight details ASAP or provide lodging details if you will already be in Cusco.
