Munay-Ki Rites and Q'ero Shamanism Education


​The Munay-Ki are an invaluable set of nine rites passed onto Dr. Alberto Villoldo by the high shamans of the Amazon and Andes, under the agreement he could bring them to the western world. 

While receiving the Munay-Ki, and researching and connecting with the Peruvian indigenous culture, I found great familiarity there, and this was in part, I feel, because the Peruvian teachings and the Toltec teachings are similar in so many ways. If the Laika passed their wisdom of their Four Insights on to the Inca (and subsequently the Q'ero nation), I would not at all be surprised if on their travels 30 thousand years ago, they also passed their wisdom onto the Toltec Indians (and farther afield into the Americas, to span other tribes). When I read about both cultures, the philosophies are sometimes even exact.

As you receive the nine rites, you'll also be receiving the educational history of the Q'ero people and the Inca civilisation which is vital for understanding the core energy of the rites.

During the rites, "seeds" containing ancient lineage are placed into your energy body over the period of about six months, and these seeds become yours to nurture. Traditionally meant for the healing work of shaman initiates, as the seeds grow, you also grow into the luminous warrior needed for this time on earth and its higher vibrational frequencies - and in essence, you become a healer by "being". From there, your path is yours, and it is the heart that will lead you.

You can read more about the rites at Munay-Ki.org. You can also follow Alberto Villoldo on Facebook where he shares a lot of his insights and wisdom.​
Rites are given one-to-one, individually, or in groups of just two. This allows ample time for the detail of each rite, and for all sessions to complete within 3 hours. Sessions usually run on weekday mornings, 10am until 1pm. EMAIL TO BOOK

Dianna received her shamanic training from Ivan McBeth at his Sacred Space School of Shamanic Studies between 2001-2003. She received her Munay-Ki rites in the tradition of Dr Alberto Villoldo and the Four Winds Society, from Sarah Williams in 2019.

Shamanic Training & Mentoring

The Munay-Ki Rites (above) are suitable for all to incorporate into their lives - you do not have to undergo any shamanic training in order to receive them.

If shamanic training is desired, Dianna takes initiates individually and on a case-by-case basis, and in most cases the *Munay-Ki Rites will form part of a year-long foundational training based on the Medicine Wheel and the Tree of Life (every ancient culture from the South Americans to the Celts have a version of the Medicine Wheel​ and Tree of Life) which will be eclectic in nature, with importance given to your unique development. (No two initiates are trained in the same way.) Shamanism is not just training, it is a complete way of life that is first and foremost rooted in dedication to the Earth as a living, breathing being (Pachamama / Gaia), and secondly, in comfortable communication with the Otherworld. The "training" part offers you knowledge which you can use to deepen your connection to your intuition, your higher self, and Great Spirit, through journeying, learning healing methods, visualisation methods, learning to trust your own body as a receptor of Spirit, communication with all kinds of spirits, working in the Otherworld (including using protections, channeling, and working with "powers"), facing and transforming fear, and finally, through nurturing an unbreakable faith in the universe and Self.
​
"The contract of the shaman initiate is one between you and Great Spirit - after all, every initiate has different strengths and vices, and, nowadays, is borne of a wide variety of ancestral and soul lineages. In truth, I simply guide your training. Spirit is the one who really gives you the training. No one can 'make' you a shaman (or witch, or wizard, etc) - it is either something you are or you aren't. You are either called, or you are not, and there is never any doubt about this from the initiate - it is clear. Without this 'clear knowing', you cannot effectively receive shamanic training."

*If you've already received the rites, but would still like shamanic training, contact Dianna to discuss this. Shamanic training is offered in-person only - not online.
It's been a crazy couple of years without knowing exactly if and how I might be able to run workshops and classes in the way I would like to, but I am planning some in the New Year now, from Imbolc, 2022 onwards. The ones below are in the works. If you are interested in any of them, please email Kia Ora Lounge and let me know so I can add you to an email list and inform you when I have details. Thank you. Dianna.

​Crystal Intuition: An Introduction to Crystal Healing

A practical, 9 hour workshop, split into three mornings, that explores the principles of crystal healing, and focuses on using our intuition and clair-senses to connect with crystals and utilise their energy for various purposes. Full details are coming very soon. This workshop is planned for early in 2022. Dates are pending, but they will be on three weekday mornings from 10am until 1pm. Total cost: £90

​If you are interested in more information, please email Kia Ora Lounge.

Creating Your Sacred Space and Altar

A sacred space where you can be completely yourself and 100% vulnerable is vitally important for wellbeing, healing, and any solitary ritualistic, ceremonial, or magickal workings. In this 3 hour class, we'll look more in-depth at the importance of the sacred space, indoors and in nature; how different cultures use sacred space, how to set one up and work with the elements within your sacred space, how to cast a circle of protection for yourself and any workings you do in your space, and we'll also look at the purpose of "the altar" - why you might want to set one up, what it should contain, and how you can build it with your own "medicine" to suit your own resonance, your connection with Spirit, and any healing work you do. This class will run on a weekday morning from 10am until 1pm. Total cost: £30

I can run this class often and consider it a pre-requisite for any classes on energy work, or spell work, including incense making and candle magick - all in the pipeline.
