Although the place is not as well known as other archaeological sites, its history is linked to the spiritual traditions of the ancient inhabitants of the Andes. It is believed to have been a sacred space, possibly used for rituals related to the constellations, agriculture, or the sun, given its alignment with certain astronomical phenomena.
The site is also famous for its impressive “Stone of the 7 angles,” a huge, precisely carved rock that shows the architectural mastery of the Incas.
Today, Ñaupa Iglesias attracts tourists and archaeologists looking to explore the mysteries of the Inca world, offering a quieter and less crowded experience than other nearby destinations such as Ollantaytambo or Machu Picchu, but equally fascinating for those who wish to delve into the ancestral legacy of the Andes.

WHAT IS MUNAY KI?
MUNAY KI: IT IS THE ENERGY OF LOVE, MUNAY MEANS
LOVE IN THE QUECHUA LANGUAGE SPOKEN BY THE
Q’ERO SHAMANS OF PERU.
Munay-Ki are 10 energetic transmissions that urge us to heal
the wounds of the past, including the karmic and genetic programs, and the limiting beliefs that we inherit.
The origin of the rites
MUNAY KI: IT IS THE ENERGY OF LOVE, MUNAY MEANS
LOVE IN THE QUECHUA LANGUAGE SPOKEN BY THE
Q’ERO SHAMANS OF PERU
The Munay-Ki Rites are based on initiation practices of the shamans of the Andes and the Amazon and were brought to the West by Dr. Alberto Villoldo, a medical anthropologist
initiated with the high shamans of Peru. Today, together with his wife, Marcela Lobos, they dedicate themselves to giving these rites and initiating the people who feel the call.

Andreina Pradas giving Munay Ki, FL 2021

Maria M Kowalski giving Munay Ki, FL 2017
Rite 1
The Healer
It connects us with an ancient lineage of
healers who encourage us towards our personal alchemy. To be a healer of others, we must first know how to transform our wounds into sources of wisdom and compassion. This lineage accompanies us on our path to harmony and well-being.
Rite 2
The Bands of Power
The bands of power are five energy belts woven around the body with
the essence of each element: earth, water, fire, air and pure light.
These bands strengthen our connection with nature and act as filters disintegrating negative and heavy energies, thus protecting us physically and psychically.
Rite 3
Rite of Harmony
It connects us with animal spirits (snake, jaguar, hummingbird, eagle and condor) that restore our instincts. They help us maintain physical and emotional
integrity. For example, they warn us about the right relationships with people, at the right times and places. In addition, it connects us with the Guardians of the three mythical worlds: upper, middle and lower. These guardians guide our evolution, urging us to heal our past and guiding us toward a healthy and auspicious future.
Rite 4
Rite of the Seer
It establishes new neural connections between the visual cortex, the third eye and the heart. Thus, the inner vision of the invisible world of subtle energies is awakened together with the grace of those who see with the eyes of love and
compassion.
Rite 5
Guardian of the Day
It initiates us into a lineage of healers
who bring health and harmony to a community by activating and feeding
its altars. The elements (earth, water, wind, fire, space) are honored and
balanced with prayers and intention for life to flow in sacred order. This lineage brings a great awareness of the soft and receptive qualities of life, healing and strengthening our relationship with the feminine.
Rite 6
Wisdom Keeper
The wisdom of this lineage is not
about accumulating information. The
High Mesayok (Sage) remembers how to dialogue with nature, understanding in their hearts the energy that moves its cycles and rhythms. In the Andes they are renowned for their ability to call lightning and for their intimate connection with the guardian spirits of the mountains.
Rite 7
Earth Keeper
These men and women have a broader and truer vision about the meaning
of life on Earth. They don’t gather scientific data about the evolution
of species. They have life’s perspective from the consciousness of the Sun and the stars that shine upon us. In the Andes they’re considered as the ascended Masters who communicate with the stars and chew their knowledge, to deliver it in a softer, discrete and digestible way to their people, just like a mother chews the food for her toothless baby.
Rite 8
Star Keeper
This initiation awakens the perception of our possible future. It is the consciousness of the prophets who not only know the prophecy from a distance, but take an active role in bringing about changes for a
better destiny. From the point of view of Dr. Alberto Villoldo, this initiation opens the door to lucidly participate in our evolution from ‘homo sapiens’ to ‘homo luminous’.
Rite 9
The Creator
This initiation stimulates us to discover our infinite nature not separated from the creative source and from all creation; it makes us sensitive to our power of manifestation and teaches us to dream that the world exists. We are going to realize that creating is not only a privilege, but also a responsibility, which is why it invites us to create with a lot of love and courage.
Rite 10
Rite of the Womb
It is a healing and a blessing that connects us to a lineage of women who have freed themselves from
suffering. This lineage wants us to remember that “the Womb is not a place to store fear or pain; the womb is to create and give birth to life”. The womb must be a pure vessel, as it will carry it to future generations.

“When I received my first Munay Ki initiation my life took a turn towards reconnecting with my wisdom and my inner strength”.
Marcela Lobos
Co-Founder of Four Winds Society and Guardian of the Munay Ki Rites
