Ascent from the Abyss: A Journey Through the Inner Underworld

"The way to the Light begins in the fertile darkness of the deep."

Following the rare Total Lunar Eclipse (Blood Moon) on March 3, we gather under the waning lunar light to descend into the "Underworld"—not a place of fear, but the sacred realm of the subconscious where our truest potential lies dormant.

This three-day immersive retreat in the mist-veiled forests of Santa Cruz is a call to those ready to face their shadows and emerge enlightened, integrated, and renewed.

The Journey

The Descent (Friday): Arrival and grounding. As the moon wanes, we open the portal to the "Lower World," using sacred plant medicine to access the hidden truths and ancestral wisdom stored in our cellular memory.

The Shadow Work (Saturday): Deep ceremonial work focused on shadow integration. Face the "dragons" of past trauma and limiting beliefs, transforming them into allies of personal power.

The Resurrection (Sunday): Integration and ascent. We bridge the Underworld with the Middle World, grounding our new insights into a practical plan for enlightened growth as we prepare for the spring equinox.

Redwood Sanctuary: Rustic, serene accommodations nestled among ancient trees and Pacific coastal air.

Nourishment: Organic, vegetarian meals designed to support the body’s detoxification and vibrational shift.

Why Now?

The Worm Moon of March 2026 marks the moment life stirs beneath the thawing earth. By venturing into your own "underworld" now, you clear the soil of your spirit for the massive growth waiting to bloom this spring.

What to Expect:

  • Despachos and Rituals: Traditional Andean offerings to align with the cosmos and Pachamama.
  • Holistic Care: Nourishing meals, comfortable accommodations, and expert guidance throughout your journey.

What's Included:

  • Accommodations: Comfortable, serene lodging in a nurturing environment.
  • Meals: Nourishing, plant-based meals to support your healing journey.
  • Sacred Medicines: Mother Divine, Father Divine, San Pedro, and Kambo.
  • Despacho Ceremonies: Traditional Andean rituals for alignment and gratitude.

Additional Services Available:

  • One-on-one Shamanic Consultations

Many have heard the sacrament calling but cannot travel to South America due to time or money constraints. Pachamama Sacred Paths brings you these ancient Shamanic-Energy-Sacraments and traditions of the Andes Mountains into a modern-day context and comfortable setting in Santa Cruz, California.
