local spiritually oriented guide will take us on a City Tour of Cusco.
Cusco is a warm and lovely city, the Holy City of the Incas, and the
memory of its ancient inhabitant is still alive and available to us. We
will enjoy walking in the old streets, touching the original Incan walls,
and meditating in its sacred temples such as the Coricancha ("enclosure of
gold") one of the most sacred temple at the Incan Empire, at one time the
home of the "Ancient Golden Sun Disc of the Motherland of Mu". After lunch
we will journey to the Temples around Cusco. A Chakra Balancing Meditation
will be guided at the incredibly constructed site of Sacsayhuman, a place
where there are tremendously large and heavy stones fitted together with
not even a hair space between them. Similar to the Pyramids of Egypt,
experts can not explain how this could have been constructed centuries
ago with the instruments and tools the Incas had at that time. Next, we

at the end of the Sacred Valley, its streets and houses are still the
original ones from the Inca's time. There is also the location of one
important temple, the 'Lemurian Temple of Love' which was known to the
Incas as the 'Temple of the Sun'. Here we will experience a profound
energy (perhaps a pulsation or special vibration) somehow connected to
six enormous pink stones that were mysteriously transported to this place.

UFO connection and/or contact with the Pleiades.

as the Eighth Wonder of the World. After we check into our hotel in Aguas
Calientes Village, we will take our first excursion to the Sacred City
where we will have the opportunity to establish a bond with this Divine
and Powerful Energy Vortex. At this moment, the Spiritual Essence of

ourselves for our last visit to Machu Picchu. At night Machu Picchu comes
alive, it is when the Spirits of the Mountains ("Apus"), Stars, Moon,
Priests and Priestesses of Machu Picchu enjoy the solitude and peace of
this Sacred Sanctuary. We will pay our respect to this Sacred site, asking
permission to the spiritual guides of Machu Picchu to allow us to return
once other visitors have departed. We will have a chance to say our
goodbyes and have the opportunity to say thanks for all of the wonderful
gifts we have received during our stay. An Andes Priest will lead a

----------------
CUSCO: Today all Cusco is celebrating
INTI-RAYMI, the 'The Sun Festival'. Every year on June 24th, since the
beginning of the Inca Empire, this day is designated to this Solstice
Celebration. The Peruvian people, who are the descendants of the mighty
Inca, will come from all over Peru to attend this festival. They will
dress in the clothes of their ancestors as the 'Children of the Sun'.
Each person makes an offering to the 'SUN-INTI' (God) from the best of
their village. The people celebrate by drumming, dancing and singing
their thanks to the "INTI" for all the blessings of life and ask for the
abundance of the next cycle. This Ritual is so authentic that one can
feel the power of the many INTI-RAYMI celebrations which have been
performed before, stirring the emotional memories of our past lives as
Incas.
Tonight is our last night together so we will suggest a union celebration in a traditional restaurant and enjoy the typical dances and music that Peru offers to us, it is a perfect scenario for our Special Farewell Dinner.
