Welcome to the Aleya Journeys Family! After 10 years of sharing my life with Peru; it's people, land and beautiful sacred traditions- I am launching the product of my years of learning, loving, communing and in service with the indigenous communities of the Andes and their sacred healing traditions. After 26 years of living in NYC after arriving as refugees from the newly independent country of Belarus, we have moved out of the concrete jungle and to the land of palms and sun- Florida. I am happily basing myself here in Palm Beach County for part of the year, and the rest of the year I am home in Cuzco and the Sacred Valley in Peru.
I am grateful to my experience of creating and running a retreat center focusing on the sharing of conscious music and dance where Mantra met Icaros, where Yoga met Shamanism and where traditions danced together in beautiful harmony. It was a personal retreat center for returning home- to the center of our heart, with the majesty of the Andes supporting each step and breath. I am blessed to have met such amazingly beautiful people, who have taught me, loved me and supported the dream. Illa Wasi truly was the home of Sacred Light- and today, I bring my experience from there, to here.
Today, I am focusing on sharing the traditions which have been passed down to me, that have come from Pre-Colombian time in Peru. I humbly and gratefully received my lineage of the Condor Medicine- the Path of the Heart which comes from the Mochica tribe.
We are living a time of the prophecy of the Condor and Eagle- the uniting of the South and the North of the Americas, the Heart and the Mind, the Moon and the Sun, the Feminine and Masculine. And this is my devoted path- in it's reunification and integration. Hence, Aleya Journey's mission is one of uniting the ancient wisdom with modern knowledge. The ancient needs us, and we need them. All we have discovered today is not to be left behind to return to the ways of the past- it is the integration of the best of both worlds. So that we build on a solid foundation and create the New Earth- one of harmony, unity and sustainability. One that is birthed in Ayni- the sacred Andean Law of Reciprocity- we first give to receive.
There is so much I would like to share with you, dear ones. I have kept rather quiet in the past years (perhaps my entire life) as I was cultivating the Condor work and deep connection with the Apus (Mountain Spirits), the Sacred Plant Teachers and my work of emotional and trauma release.
In the meantime I completed my Masters Degree in Clinical Psychology and Spirituality Studies at Columbia University in NY- leaving Academia for the first time in a long time where I served as the bridge of ancient traditional knowledge and modern Academia.
Now it is time to share! I am still building the new website for Aleya Journeys, so please stay tuned. It will serve as a resource to find opportunities of truth and integrity to work with the indigenous communities, ceremony, cultural exchange, personal retreats and tours with native community elders.
This July, my medicine partner Craig G. Berry will be arriving in Florida from Peru- a man that bridges the modern medical world with Australian Aboriginal Healing and Peruvian Shamanism. We will be working together in Florida and possibly the North East. Craig has decades of experience working with everything from terminal illness, infertility, anorgasmia and covering most modern illnesses. The technique we use are effective, quick and safe- where you are completely held and supported from beginning to end.
In August we open our 2016 Retreat Season in Peru- dates coming soon. You can come for personal retreat and with your own small group. If you have 4 or more people- we customize a retreat through the Sacred Valley of more pristine sacred sites that are lesser known for a personalized ceremony.
I have begun a weekly Moon Wisdom Circle on Sundays, for women to gather and follow the cycles of the moon as we explore the different archetypes which we cycle with: The Virgin, The Mother, The Elder and The Shaman.
We also follow the Mayan Tzolk'in and observe ceremony every 13 days, usually a fire ceremony to introduce the new tercena. Andean traditional ceremonies including rebirthing, gratitude, forgiveness, sacred bathing ritual, partnership, love and community rites.
Aleya Journeys is also launching a store of artisenal hand made goods by the local communities of the Andes and Peru. This ayni relationship helps to support the artisan traditions of healing and beauty through the arts, spread the wisdom weaved in these works and support Aleya Journeys and the communities. The store will be up soon, and look out for your VIP invite to the Launch Gala.
For now, on this first day of the new Tercena (13 day cycle) I leave you with this passage on the significance of this Day 1 which falls on the 1st of June, 2016.
"Stand before the mirror of your soul, unclad and unfettered. Bleed out from your psychic body the poisons of fear, uncertainty, weakness and falsehood. Have the courage to look directly into your heart, body and mind, without prejudice and without judgement, but with full acceptance and recognition of that which need work or improvement. Rejoice in that which you have made alreadystrong, and commit to new and future steps toward full and complete healing" -MCP Mayan Tzolk'in, 1 Etznab
