Beginning in the “lower world” with the support of Sachamama, Serpent Mother, we explore the inner realm of consciousness and bring the light of awareness to that which is unconscious for reconciliation, release and transformation.
Following our initiatory preparations with Sachamama, we engage Otorongo, Jaguar Spirit, to navigate the realm of the physical, or “middle world” -- the time-space of manifest reality -- with balance, acuity, strength and discernment.

What is the attendance policy? I honor you and your choice to honor your heart, and the call of Spirit, stepping forward, beyond the bounds of ordinary time and space to consciously choose to re-member your role as a steward of our Great Earth Mother, Pachamama Gaia. During our year-long alchemical journey of soul, we will gather together in a Mesa lodge, a sacred container in which, and through which, we will be in direction communion with the unseen, yet very present, world of Spirit: our ancestors, the lineage, the nature spirits and all of the tutelary guardians, animal allies – these are all living, breathing, energies that deserve our respect and honor. To convene in the Mesa lodge is an immersive communion with Spirit - a sacred space in which there are not only sacred transmissions of ancient wisdom teachings, but also deep personal healing. As such, commitment from each initiate to be present for the full duration of the apprenticeship is vital to the integrity of the sacred container. It is important for you to review the dates and observed times of the apprenticeship and choose to make these dates/times a priority in your schedule at the time of your commitment to this apprenticeship.
