Shamanic Workshop (Munay-Ki Rites)

Munay-Ki Rites are ancient shamanic rites that have been kept sacred by the Q’ero nation – descendants of the Inca. In 2006 the elders asked Dr Alberto Villoldo to share these rites with the West. They felt that we were at a critical juncture of human history and that they should be shared with as many people as possible.

Munay-Ki means “I love you” and “Be as thou art”.  I prefer the second translation as for me it’s a better description of the journey that one experiences after receiving the rites. Its a journey of healing, protection, cleansing, vision – learning to see the invisible world, connecting with luminous beings, a knowing that one has the power to dream the world into being, becoming homo-luminous and finally coming to the deep realisation that each of us is an embodiment of Spirit.

The rites are energetic seeds that are planted at spirit level in your luminous energy field (aura). The seeds grow by connecting with fire (a candle flame will do) and meditating on the ‘seeds’ planted in the luminous energy field during the gifting of the rite.  

Further growth is experienced as one shares these rites with others.  The gift of the Munay-Ki is that when one has received all 9 rites and completed the Harmony Rite meditations – one is able to share the rites with others.

At Inner Peace Healing the Munay Ki Rites are shared over time instead of in a weekend workshop.  This is to allow for the initiate receiving the rites time to absorb the gifts that the individual rites offer.

The rites are shared on a fortnightly basis over 8 sessions.  This journey is designed around the Harmony Rite meditations.  When one receives the Harmony rite the seeds of an Archetype is planted into each chakra.  

One needs to meditate for 2 weeks on each archetype to clear out the psychic sludge in the chakra, and to connect to the archetype so that one may experience life with the gifts and knowledge that each Archetype brings – and examining one’s history in this lifetime and past lifetimes.

During the Munay Ki Rites Journey, you will learn about creating Sacred Space, the Four Elements, the Luminous Energy Field, creating an altar and other topics relating to shamanism and healing.

Sessions on Tuesday mornings are at 9.30 am and are 2 to 2.5 hours depending on the rite shared and feedback from the group.  The first session is longer as two rites are shared.
