The Hidden Wisdom of the West in Q’ero Shamanic Traditions
The Q’ero people of the high Andes in Peru carry an ancient way of seeing the world through the Four Directions. In this tradition, the West is more than just a spot on a compass. It is a sacred space for transformation and letting go. While the South represents the beginning of the journey, the West is where we face our deepest shadows to find our true strength.
