At the Chacana Spiritual Center, we often look to the wisdom of the High Andes to understand why we feel the way we do today. According to the teachings of the Laika (Earthkeepers), we carry a "Luminous Energy Field"—an invisible matrix that surrounds our physical body. This field contains a record of every trauma, every triumph, and every unfulfilled dream of our ancestors.
The LEF: Your Ancestral Library

Think of your Luminous Energy Field as a software program that informs your physical health and emotional reality. When an ancestor experienced a great loss or a period of scarcity, it left an "imprint" in this field. Shamanism is the sacred technology we use to clear these old programs so they no longer run our lives.
From Karma to Grace

Many of us feel bound by "family karma"—the repeating cycles of addiction, heartbreak, or illness. We learn that we can actually "re-write" these stories. By clearing the heavy energy (hucha) from our field, we stop living the stories of our grandfathers and start dreaming our own world into being.
Your Lineage: the Seventh Generation Duty

The shaman knows that time is not a straight line. When we heal ourselves at the Chacana Spiritual Center, we are performing a "soul retrieval" for our entire lineage. We send light back to those who were silenced, and we ensure that the children seven generations from now inherit a field of light rather than a field of trauma.

FAQ
What is the Luminous Energy Field?
The Luminous Energy Field (LEF) is an invisible energetic matrix that surrounds the physical body, described in Q'ero Andean teachings as a record of every trauma, triumph, and unfulfilled dream carried by one's ancestors.
How does ancestral trauma affect us today?
According to Q'ero shamanic teachings, when an ancestor experienced loss or scarcity, it left an energetic imprint in the Luminous Energy Field, which can continue to influence physical health, emotional patterns, and repeating life cycles until it is cleared.
What does it mean to clear hucha or heavy energy?
Clearing hucha, or heavy energy, is a shamanic practice of releasing inherited emotional and energetic burdens from the Luminous Energy Field so a person can stop repeating ancestral patterns and create new outcomes for their life.
What training does the Chacana Spiritual Center offer for ancestral healing?
The Chacana Spiritual Center offers the Munay Ki Shamanic Apprenticeship, available onsite and online, and the in-person Shamanic Practitioner Training, both rooted in Q'ero Andean tradition and including practices such as soul retrieval to support healing across generations.
