👉 From Andrea Mikana-Pinkham, Director of Sacred Sites Journeys: Here's a short article that I wrote about a shamanic experience in PERU with one of our previous groups at the Temple of the Moon outside of Cusco.
🌀 In the Arms of the Pachamama
In the cool and enfolding darkness, we trudged up the barren hillside just as the light from Mama Quilla, the full moon, was peaking her bright face over the horizon. We could see the lights in the valley below us, sparkling with the warmth of activities of the people of Cusco, busy with their evening’s activities. The fresh night air helped us to clear our minds of worldly concerns and prepare us for our important work that we were about to undertake. We carefully followed our guide, a ritual specialist in the Inca Spiritual Tradition, and silently continued around the hill to the right, climbing up two steep stone benches to finally stand breathlessly in front of our evening’s destination…the small opening to the cave that led into the Pachamama (Mother Earth).
Our diverse group of spiritual seekers had come from many far away places to be here on this special night, to enter the Temple of the Moon, the Amaru Machay, or “Place of the Serpent”, as it’s known in the local indigenous Quechua language. Each person in the group had made the decision to travel in the company of other like-minded people, not only for the emotional warmth and safety they felt it would offer, but also for the enriching opportunities of sharing both the daily and the peak experiences of travel with their spiritual brothers and sisters. Certainly during our few days that we’d already been in Peru, this had been regularly occurring. The bonding had been happening easily, and a very positive group synergy had been building. Now…here we were, on the night of the full moon, ready to share and support each other again. Perhaps at one of the most profound levels yet.

💥💥💥 The group is filling for our Spiritual Journey at Machu Picchu, Cusco & The Sacred Valley of the Incas, October 12 - 21, 2025!

👉 From Andrea Mikana-Pinkham, Director of Sacred Sites Journeys
🌄 EGYPT: Here's a vintage photo of the original entrance to the Great Pyramid of Giza ~ From Magnificent Images of Egypt by the Zangaki Brothers, 1870-1890 (More excellent photos here: https://rarehistoricalphotos.com/egypt-zangaki-brothers-1870-1890 )
👉 After the Great Pyramid was initially sealed, its original entrance was hidden and faced with smooth limestone. Because this blended in so well with the surrounding casing, the opening was invisible.
👉 Around 820 CE the Caliph Abdullah Al Mamun mobilized men to bore a tunnel into the pyramid to search for chambers and treasure. Due to the difficulty of the task of breaking up the hard rock, fires were built to heat the rock and then cold vinegar was poured over the heated rock. Battering rams were used to pound away the weakened rock and clear a tunnel.
👉 Eventually, a passageway was found which descended into the lowest chamber of the pyramid. Following this passageway back upward, the original entrance was finally located. - Here's a report on that from Popular Science magazine, in 1954: "Starting on the north face, not far from the secret entrance they had failed to find, Al-Mamun's men drove a tunnel blindly into the pyramid's solid rock .... The tunnel had progressed about 100 feet southward into the pyramid when the muffled thud of a falling rock slab, somewhere near them, electrified the diggers. Burrowing eastward whence the sound had come, they broke into the Descending Passage. Their hammering, they found, had shaken down the limestone slab hiding the plugged mouth of the Ascending Passage." 👉 Excerpted from "Inside the Great Pyramid" at https://www.smithsonianmag.com/travel/inside-the-great-pyramid-75164298
❗️ We'll have a PRIVATE ENTRANCE inside the Great Pyramid during our Sacred Journey of Initiation to Mystical EGYPT, February 1 - 14, 2026 with myself and Rt. Rev. Sean P. McCabe, KT. PhD. 💥 We're taking registrations; the group is filling! ➡ To see the itinerary details (with lots of photos!), pricing, tour inclusions, how to register and other important information: http://www.sacredsitesjourneys.com/Egypt-Feb2026/Egypt-Feb2026.html
➡ From Andrea Mikana-Pinkham, Director of Sacred Sites Journeys: 🌟 EGYPT - Here's my photo of the entrance to the the Temple of Isis complex on Philae Island in Aswan, its original location. The ancient energies here are still very palpable there! Once the Aswan High Dam was completed in the 1960's, the temple complex was inundated with the waters and was moved from Philae to nearby Agilkia Island.
👉 The name Philae comes from the ancient Egyptian word Pilak, meaning “the remote place.” This southernmost site in Egypt was the last outpost of the 4,000 year-old ancient Egyptian spiritual tradition that venerated Isis, the Neter of Healing and Magic, wife/sister of Osiris, and mother of Horus.
👉 Isis may be the oldest deity in Egypt, and certainly the oldest to survive in much the same form as in the ancient times. She may also be the most important, as She was worshipped almost universally by all Egyptians. As the major Goddess of the Egyptian pantheon, with many of the same attributes of other Mother Goddesses found all over the world, She was revered as the Great Protector, prayed to for guidance, and beseeched for peace in the world.
👉 Her Egyptian name was Auset, which meant "female of throne", i.e. Queen of the Throne. Teachings about the pre-dynastic Egyptians, from the oral tradition passed down through the ages, say that it was a matriarchal and matralineal culture, and that the woman was the power behind the throne. The mother or sister chose the male who ruled. Thus the throne that is shown carved on Isis' head in hieroglyphs in the temples.
👉 During the Greco-Roman period, this sacred island was the main cult center of Isis. Her worship lasted here until the 6th century CE, when it was outlawed by the Emperor Justinian. Though it died out here, Her influence spread to Greece and Rome and on throughout Europe. Some researchers believe that the Black Madonnas found in many cathedrals were representations of Isis and Her son Horus.
💥 Visit and experience the ancient and still palpable energies at both the original and present-day locations of the Temple of Isis with me next February during our Women's Empowerment Journey to Mystical Egypt, February 20 - 28, 2026! Including Meditations and Circle Time to Connect with Egyptian Goddesses & a 4-Night Nile Cruise!
💥 NOW TAKING REGISTRATIONS! ➡ To see the itinerary details (with lots of photos!), pricing, tour inclusions, how to register and other important information: http://www.sacredsitesjourneys.com/Egypt-Women-Feb2026/Egypt-Women-Feb2026.html 🌟 To request a registration form, comment below, email me at [email protected] or call our office at 928 284-1429.

07/07/2025
➡️ From Andrea Mikana-Pinkham, Director of Sacred Sites Journeys, who has been leading spiritual groups to PERU annually since 1994: ✨ According to the Andean Elders I've studied with for the last 30+ years in Peru, many thousands of years ago the Andes was chosen to be the site of one of the greatest civilizations of Spiritual Light and Wisdom to ever exist on Earth!
👉 Great builders and enlightened sages flocked from the East and West, carrying with them the best of the doomed civilizations of Atlantis and Lemuria. Known as the Viracochas, the “Gods,” these missionaries proceeded to construct megalithic temples out of blocks weighing 100 tons or more on the summit of towering Andean peaks. They covered some of these colossal structures with sheets of solid gold and then placed inside them ancient power objects, esoteric symbols, and mystery teachings regarding the secrets of the cosmos and the goal of human life. Their magnificent civilization would survive for tens of thousands of years until 1532 when the Spanish invasion and destruction happened.
👉 Then, almost 500 years later, beginning in 1992 the Andes awakened to a new cycle of time. According to the Andean Elders and the Dalai Lama as well, at that time the most powerful center of earth energies shifted from the Himalayas (masculine energy) to the Andes (feminine energy) as part of the Pachacuti ("Turning of the World"), the New Dawn or New Sunrise. The glorious Andean civilization of the past has since re-emerged, and its ancient wisdom and mysteries are now being recovered.
💥 If you feel a resonance with these words and to the Andes and its enlightened civilization, then you're being called to "come home"! The powerful energies of transformation are calling you to come and reconnect with a part of yourself you have lost and are ready to remember during this time of the Taripay Pacha!
🌟 A SPECIAL HIGHLIGHT is our time at Machu Picchu, the ancient Crystal City of Light! During our 2 days at one of the world's most powerful sacred sites, we'll enter twice for group and individual sacred exploration. I'm a trained Andean shamanic practitioner; I'll facilitate meditations, sacred rituals and initiations to assist you to tap into the transformational energies that are still present in its various temples.
💥💥💥 We're taking registrations NOW and the group is filling for our Spiritual Journey at Machu Picchu, Cusco & The Sacred Valley of the Incas, October 12 - 21, 2025! With an Optional Post-Tour Extension to Lake Titicaca, October 21 - 24, 2025. 🌟For a detailed itinerary and pricing, visit: http://www.sacredsitesjourneys.com/Peru-Oct2025/Peru-Oct2025.htm 👉 To request a Registration Form, comment below, contact me via FB Messenger, email me at [email protected] or call our office at 928 284-1429
🌟💥🌟 Join us as an ASSOCIATE MEMBER of THE TEMPLE OF THE GOLDEN SERPENT (TOGS), a Modern-Day Egyptian Mystery School that was co-founded by Andrea Mikana-Pinkham Director of Sacred Sites Journeys and Rt. Rev. Sean P. McCabe KT. PhD at the Vernal Equinox 2025.
👉 Our Temple is a conduit for universal and Divine Wisdom and Light. Its ageless knowledge from the Egyptian Mysteries will assist you to progress on your spiritual path, to reach greater understanding and experience of your True Self - Know Thyself!
🩵 Through the Unconditional Love of our Divine Mother, Isis/Auset, we endeavor to eliminate the Ego and transmute that energy into the alchemical gold in alignment with our Higher Self, as we manifest our Solar Body to conjure the Kundalini - the Golden Serpent.
🎗 Aspirants who feel drawn to the TOGS may aspire to begin their sacred journey on this Path as an ASSOCIATE MEMBER. 🌟 We invite you to join us for our QUARTERLY ONLINE MEETING on July 26th! There will be an Egyptian Ceremony during which we'll share a Guided Meditation. Followed by a Question/Answer time. 👉 For more information, and to register for the meeting: http://www.sacredsitesjourneys.com/TempleOfTheGoldenSerpent.html
✨🌀✨ You're also invited to receive powerfully transformative Sacred Initiations at ancient chakra sites along or near the Nile in EGYPT, as well as 💥 FULL INITIATION into the Temple of the Golden Serpent 💥 as a Priest or Priestess during our Sacred Journey of Initiation, February 1 - 14, 2026. http://www.sacredsitesjourneys.com/Egypt-Feb2026/Egypt-Feb2026.html

➡ From Andrea Mikana-Pinkham, Director of Sacred Sites Journeys: Here's the most popular post on our Page in June 2025: 🌟 WORLD TRANSFORMATION & THE COMING 5TH WORLD OF UNIFICATION: The Great Solar Disc of PERU and the Pachacuti from Mark Amaru Pinkham - Author, Co-Founder & Featured Speaker on many of our SSJs to PERU since 1994!
👉 The Andean Elders/Ritual Specialists maintain that every 500 years the Great Solar Disc - which is now at the bottom of the sacred Lake Titicaca - reawakens and generates alchemical power that leads to a planetary Pachacuti or "world transformation." The Solar Disc is said to have shut down in 1492 with the European takeover of the Americas and then become reactivated 500 years later in 1992. It currently works non-stop to alchemically transform Earth and initiate the 5th World of Union.
👉 Legend has it that the Solar Disc was anciently brought to Earth by Sanat Kumara, who arrived from his celestial seat of the Pleiades via Venus. The Solar Disc is said to have been made on Venus out of metals indigenous to that planet, but not of the Earth.
👉 The Solar Disc became an important power object of the Order of the Seven Rays (aka Great White Brotherhood) when it was founded on Lemuria by Sanat Kumara in order to preserve and disseminate the Gnostic-Alchemical Tradition he brought from the Seven Sisters. So great was the Solar Disc's power that when struck it could change the axis of the Earth. During the time of the world Pachacuti that sunk Atlantis the disc was brought to the Andes by Aramu Muru, a high ranking sage of the 7 Ray Order, for safe keeping.
👉 Aramu Muru initially kept the Solar Disc in the Monastery of the Seven Rays that he built near Titicaca. Many years later he transported it to the Valley of Cusco where it hung in the Coricancha, the Golden Temple of the Sun, and became the prized possession of the Inca Empire. Legend has it that during this time Aramu Muru changed his name and ruled the Incas as their first priest king, Manco Kapac.
👉 When the Spanish invaded Peru the Solar Disc was taken back to Titicaca and placed at the bottom of the sacred lake. Since its reactivation in 1992 there have been numerous sightings of it in the lake to confirm its existence. Meanwhile, its transformative essence is constantly being amplified by the water of the lake and circulating within the Andean Chacana Grid and throughout the Planetary Grid. Those actively seeking to be transformed by the alchemical power of the Solar Disc can travel to Peru and/or they can summon its power at vortexes closer to home. Visualizations within the comfort and safety of one’s own home have also been known to summon its uplifting emanations.
➡ Excerpted from the popular classic The Return of the Serpents of Wisdom - Special Edition by Mark Amaru Pinkham - Author ➡️ You can order a signed copy of the book or the PDF directly from Mark Amaru at https://www.sevenrayorder.com/books-courses-tours 🙏 Thank you for supporting an independent author & publisher!
💥💥💥 From Andrea: We’ll explore these mysteries during our upcoming Spiritual Journey at Machu Picchu, Cusco & The Sacred Valley of the Incas, October 12 - 21, 2025. As well as during the Optional Post-Tour Extension to Lake Titicaca & Aramu Muru's Doorway, Ocrober 21st - 24th 👉 I've organized and taken more than 35 groups to Peru since 1994, and will be leading this group.
