This quality poncho consists of 100% alpaca wool, handmade by local Ecuadorian artisans.
Its design connects you to the South American pyramidal energies. These types of forces align us with the four cardinal directions of Earth and the different animal spirits protecting each direction. The pyramid had a deep meaning for Mesoamerican civilizations, it symbolized spiritual attainment but also the duality of the world. The pyramidal structures often had underground caverns which were, so to say, the mirror side of the temple.
The step-pyramid design is represented by the Chakana, sacred symbol of the Andean people. It symbolizes not only the four cardinal points of the solar year but it shows the connection between the three worlds of Incan cosmology- the Ukhu Pacha, Cay Pacha and Hanan Pacha.
The whole design often also aligned with the four directions of Earth- East, South, West and North. Many pyramids also preserve important information about different cycles of the Sun and the Moon, such as the Solstices and Equinoxes and the precession of the Earth’s rotational axis. Carrying these profound symbols with the blue-black Chakana poncho, the beneficial energies of the Earth’s sacred alignments with the Sun protect you.
Align with Earth’s energies and directions to tune in with the Universe’s harmonic rhythm!
