Dear Shamanic Healers, Teachers, Colleagues and Friends,

"One must cultivate relationships with Spirit allies, animals, mountains, and waters, connecting with their wisdom, love, energy, and medicine, and living in right relationship in Ayni, Kausay, and Pacha." — Wilbert Salas Atasi

THE SACRED NUMBER SEVEN IN ANDEAN COSMOLOGY | ONLINE COURSE

With Pampamesayoq Medicine Man Wilbert Salas Atasi
And Guest Teacher Don Mariano Quispe Flores
A Shamans Directory Online Course Offering
Series of 7 Teachings (90min each)
Begins 20 May 2026, on Wednesday and Saturdays

In the Andean mystical traditions, the number seven holds profound sacred significance. While four represents the cardinal directions of the Chakana Cross, Tawantin, seven reveals a deeper energetic layer of existence. Known as Qanchis in Quechua, this sacred number is reflected throughout both the natural and spiritual worlds — in the stars, the balance of masculine and feminine forces, the mountains and waters, the rainbow’s rays, the inner layers of Pachamama, the human energy centers, the musical notes, and the cycle of seven days.

Following our deeply enriching course, Core Principles of Andean Wisdom, Healing, and Spirtual Practices, with Pampamesayoq, ceremonialist, and master healer and teacher Wilbert Salas Atasi, it became clear there is more to share. For those called to walk the path of Andean cosmology and living ancestral traditions, this new series offers an opportunity to deepen both understanding and embodied practice. Shamans Directory is honored to present this new teaching series on The Sacred Number Seven in Andean Cosmology.

This course also includes a special gift, a rare opportunity to meet and learn from an extraordinary Elder. We are deeply honored to welcome esteemed Kurak Aqulleq Don Mariano Quispe Flores as a guest teacher. Now in his mid-eighties, he carries a lifetime of wisdom rooted in the living Q’eros traditions. His presence embodies love, vitality, and profound knowledge, bringing connection, joy, and inspiration wherever he goes.

This seven session online course includes a journey through:
✨ Qanchis Punkus — the seven energetic gates of the body
✨ Qanchis Waras — the seven inner layers of Pachamama
✨ Qanchis Apus — the seven sacred mountain spirits
✨ Qanchis Ñustas — the seven powerful goddesses
✨ Qanchis Paqarinas & Cochas — the seven springs and lakes
✨ Qanchis Phunchay Hampiy — the seven days of healing
✨ Qanchis Chaska (Mama Qoto) — the seven stars of the Pleiades

This journey invites deep learning and connection with the spirit allies of Andean cosmology, as well as in your own landscape, supporting personal integration, healing work, and ceremonial practice.

Whether you are new or experienced, you are warmly invited. No prior training or a Mesa medicine bundle is required — only an open heart and sincere curiosity. Recordings will be available for those who are unable to join in real time.
