Sacred Andean Tools of Healing and Transformation

Chumpi Stones are more than just artifacts. They are vessels of Andean wisdom, embodying the essence of a rich cultural heritage that continues to guide and heal.

Origins and Significance of Chumpi Stones

Chumpi stones, also known as kuyas or khuyas, emerge from the high Andes as revered sacred tools used in ancient shamanic rites by the Q’ero shaman people.

These stones are integral to the practices of initiation, healing, and transformation within Andean cosmology.

Conection with Apus

Chumpi Stone Sets connect intimately with the Apus (the powerful mountain spirits) and establish a direct link to the stars.

Hand-crafted in the Sacred Valley of Peru, these empowered stones fit comfortably in the hand, making them easy to use in the mesa (ritual altar) and serving as portals to the divine.

Their compact size enhances their role in spiritual practices, offering a tangible connection to the sacred.

Healing and Ceremonial Use

In the hands of skilled practitioners, Chumpi Stones are used for healing, cleansing, and reconnecting the energy centers known as Ñawis.

They are instrumental in clearing blockages, providing protection, grounding, and even facilitating soul retrieval when necessary.

Through the ceremonial use of these stones, shamans work to harmonize the spiritual, physical, and energetic bodies, invoking prayer and focused intention to address and heal negative energies.

Protective and Balancing Properties

The term “Chumpi,” derived from Quechua, translates to “belt“. Referring to the protective bands or energy fields these stones help to form around an individual.

Each stone corresponds to a specific energy center, shielding against disruptive forces.

When these centers become blocked or weakened, Chumpi Stones can draw out dense energy and restore balance, allowing for the free flow of energy to the ukhu pacha.

Master Don Alejandro Insights

“The Chumpi Stones I use in my practice are carved from alabaster by artisans from my region. These tools are central to our healing ceremonies, performed with the person lying down. Through concentrated effort and respectful invocation of nature’s sacred elements, we empower these stones to address and heal the individual’s needs.”
