EXPAND Peru 2026
An Initiation Journey for Legacy Leaders
October 3 - October 11, 2026 | Sacred Valley · Peru
EXPAND Peru is a living transmission – a pilgrimage into sacred land, lineage, and inner authority. In early October 2026, we gather in the luminous Andes for deep initiation: ceremonial, psychological, energetic, and ancestral.
This initiation is for leaders who steward more than vision – those entrusted with people, capital, land, and long-term impact. In the Andes, we explore the relationship between inner coherence and outer responsibility – how wealth, business, and resources move when leadership is embodied, ethical, and in right relationship with the Earth.
A Journey of Embodied Expansion
For nine days in the Sacred Valley and beyond, you will be guided to meet:
The Earthkeepers and Ancestors of the Q’ero lineage
The Shipibo traditions of rainforest memory and medicine
The living intelligence of Incan sacred architecture
At every site, from Pisac to Machu Picchu, the land and sacred sites themselves will be your teacher, revealing the bridges between inner sovereignty and outer impact.
What You Will Receive:
This journey is crafted as initiation for those whose soulstreams are poised to:
Activate the embodiment of your highest timeline
Initiate a deeper level of Earth Mission Stewardship
Reclaim embodied power and presence
Release limiting timelines and patterns
Step into leadership that serves the world with more impact
Through ceremonies, transmissions, and lineage-guided rites, including a traditional Shipibo plant medicine ceremony, you will receive initiation into a larger field of possibility.
A COUNCIL OF GLOBAL STEWARDS
Each person who arrives to EXPAND Peru is a carrier of wisdom, responsibility, and remembrance. While there are guides who hold the ceremonial, logistical, and energetic architecture of the journey, the power of EXPAND emerges through collective presence. We gather in Peru to activate the stewardship that lives within each of us, creating a collective wise council. EXPAND Peru takes place on land long recognized as a planetary convergence point ~ where ancient ley lines, water systems, mountain ranges, and human memory intersect. For millennia, the Andes have served as a keeper of memory, holding encoded wisdom about reciprocity, stewardship, and right relationship between humans, Earth, and the cosmos. When we gather here with presence and coherence, something ancient reawakens.
THE EAGLE / CONDOR PROPHECY
This journey unfolds within the remembrance of the Eagle / Condor Prophecy ~ a time foretold by Andean wisdom when the Eagle of the North (representative of masculine energy through mind, innovation, and vision) reunites with the Condor of the South (representative of feminine energy through heart, Earth, and intuition). Their meeting signals a return to balance, where humanity remembers how to walk in harmony with the land, each other, and the living cosmos.
Sacred Locations On This Journey
We move with reverence through places of concentrated energetic potency:
-
According to the Incas, is a warm and lovely city. The memories of its ancient inhabitants are still alive. The Incas developed an advanced awareness of energy and the knowledge of how to utilize each energetic vibration for growth and transformation. Each temple was built at a specific point of power and are in direct alignment with each other and the Stars, as above so below.
-
The Crystal City - was a Incan University where knowledgeable men and women practiced daily spirituality. Before entering Machu Picchu, we will ask permission of Machu Picchu’s spiritual guides to allow us to enter its sacred walls. As the Sun rises through the holy mountains around Machu Picchu, we will be in ceremony waiting to welcome Taita Inti (Father Sun) and its healing rays to light and bless us and this new day. It is here we will receive our Healer’s Rites.
**We will immerse in sacred ceremony and meditation at Intihuatana, the highest point of Machu Picchu.
-
Connecting with Otorongo (Jaguar) and Condor while at the sacred sites, receiving the Munay Karpay (ceremony). If there is an English word to describe Munay, the closest would be “love”, yet Munay is more of a consciousness of acceptance and appreciation for all creation and all that is. It is more in line with a universal and unconditional love.
-
We will travel up to the temple and gather for a Karpay ceremony. The ceremony will help us manifest the Inca law of Yachay. Yachay translates as “wisdom” and is more of an inner knowing and higher consciousness of our “authentic”, or true, selves. It understands that we are not our egos, illuminating the truth of our limitlessness.
-
A sacred Incan terraced circular depressions, the largest site used for farming. Soil samples have shown that soils were brought in from different regions to be used in helping grow crops at the different levels of the terraces.
-
The name is in the ancient language used by the Incas (Qechua) which translated into Spanish means (falcon). We will visit and go into ceremony at the Temple las Lunas (Temple of the Moon) to connect with the feminine energy of Mama Killa (Grandmother Moon) and Otorongo (The Jaguar).
-
The Temple of the Qorikancha was the most sacred and important temple to the Incas, not only for worshipping the Sun deity “Inti”, but for being the only temple that devoted itself entirely to worship ceremonies. It is said that the High Incan Priests and Priestesses communicated energetically and psychically with all realms of the Inca Empire from one central point.

Who This Is For
This initiation is for leaders, stewards, creators, visionaries, and changemakers who are ready to expand through embodiment – to let inner evolution become outer impact through the quantum field. It is for those called to lead, create, and anchor new realities in service of humanity and Earth.
Ethics & Reciprocity
EXPAND Peru is held in deep reverence for Pachamama (Mother Earth) and the living indigenous lineages of the Andes. We approach this journey in right relationship, as guests and stewards, honoring the land, the elders, and the cultural wisdom that has been safeguarded for generations. All ceremonial spaces are facilitated with humility, consent, and respect, in collaboration with indigenous lineage holders, with clear care for what is shared and what is protected.
A meaningful portion of resources from this journey is directly reinvested into local indigenous communities, supporting elders, community-led initiatives, and the preservation of living traditions. This is Ayni (sacred reciprocity) ~ a recognition that wisdom is living, valuable, and worthy of material support that sustains communities beyond a single experience. Through EXPAND Peru, we walk with accountability, care, and a shared commitment to honoring Earth, humanity and ancestral wisdom.
