Since ancient times, the coca leaf has served as a sacred channel of communication between humans and the spiritual world in the Andes. During the coca reading ceremony, guided by a shaman or paq'o of traditional wisdom, participants seek answers, guidance, and inner balance. This ancient practice is rooted in the Inca worldview, which considers every element of nature a living being with its own energy. During this mystical experience, you will participate in an emotional offering to Pachamama in a sacred place: the Templo de la Luna (Temple of the Moon) near Saqsayhuamán. There, surrounded by nature and ancient Inca altars, we will invoke the Apus (spirits of the mountains) and Mother Earth. We will give thanks, ask for guidance, and restore spiritual harmony.

    Transfer to the archaeological site of the Templo de la Luna (Temple of the Moon), a few minutes from the historic center. Short walk to the ceremonial site.

  2. Spiritual preparation and opening
    Brief guided meditation and energy cleansing with Andean herbal smoke to harmonize body and mind before beginning the ceremony.

  3. Personalized coca leaf reading
    The Andean master (Paq'o) spreads out a unquña (traditional blanket) and reads the coca leaves, interpreting their shape, direction, and arrangement. The guardian Apus of the region (Saqsayhuamán, Ausangate, Salkantay) are invoked to ask for spiritual guidance and personal answers.

  4. Offering ceremony to Pachamama
    An offering is prepared “despacho” with flowers, corn, coca, sweets, and other symbolic items, which is given to the earth as an act of gratitude, request, or reconciliation. The ceremony is accompanied by prayers in Quechua and traditional songs.

    A moment of silence and connection with the sacred environment. Thanks are given to the Apus and the ritual ends with words from the Paq'o.
