Shaman Portal enthusiastically invites you to attend a special Virtual Event in celebration of the Solstice–Inti Raymi– from the Andes Shamanic tradition.
Inti Raymi, the Festival of the Sun, is a traditional celebration in the Andes that honors the Sun God Inti, particularly in Ecuador. It symbolizes gratitude to the sun for its vital role in agriculture, marking the winter solstice and the start of a new agricultural cycle. The festival reinforces indigenous cultural identity, showcasing traditions, language, music, dance, and attire. It reflects the Andean cosmovision of harmony between humans and nature and serves as a spiritual renewal and purification time. Inti Raymi also fosters social cohesion by bringing communities together to share in the celebrations, reinforcing social bonds and collective identity.
Our 7th annual gathering will be led by renowned shamans and wisdom keepers, including:
- Don Manuel Calazacon and his Tsachila tribal family
- Taita Yachak Don Jacho Castelo, Kichwa
- Yachak Don Pedro Cabascango, Kichwa
