The AN•visible 

During the month of September, we focused on needed maintenance. German came over and thoroughly inspected the tile roof of our house so it would be ready for the upcoming rainy season. In the third week of September, Percy started repairing all the settling cracks in our house. (We had wanted to do this for [ Read More…. ]

For the past few months, I’ve been concentrating on writing my new book. Now, I’m taking a break from it and trying to catch up on other things ~ like the Photo Journeys of the Heart of AN. The first of August is the beginning of the Andean New Year. Every year, we make offerings [ Read More…. ]

The past few months have been very quiet here. I have been focusing on finishing my new book of the stories of my life. Great progress has been made ~ 1200 pages done so far! ~ and we are hoping that it is complete before the end of the year. In June, Emanaku and I [ Read More…. ]

Just when we thought we were almost done with our needed maintenance and creative projects, I suddenly saw that we were meant to create a Fairy Ring out of stones in our Fairy Circles. This is when the Creative Surge greatly accelerated and almost blew us over with its force. When I walked over to [ Read More…. ]

In April, German and his team began making new water canals in several parts of the land. There was one going to our vegetable garden area and another one which goes to our neighbor at the bottom of our land. German also built a wall to close up the new storage area behind Pedro’s house.

During the second half of March, we started experiencing a massive Creative Surge. This was triggered off by the “routine” garden work that was being done in our AN•Chakana area. As the overgrown plants were cleaned up by Pedro and Elio, the energy visibly transformed. A whole new level of the AN energy of the [ Read More…. ]

We are living in such a paradox during these unusual times. There’s the surreal, science fiction, often ominous, outside world that just keeps getting stranger and stranger. And then there’s the world that we live in at the Heart of AN which is incredibly beautiful. And keeps getting even more beautiful! Here, everything is imbued [ Read More…. ]

The 30th of January brought the arrival of Chaco ~ a male alpaca that we borrowed for a month from Pedro and Cecilia’s herd. His task was to impregnate our three female alpacas. In a few weeks, he will be returning to Yanamayo and in about a year, we will see if any new crias [ Read More…. ]

January was full of bursts of activity coupled with short periods of deep silence. We always have lots of practical tasks to do here and it feels really good to get some of them accomplished. There’s the sense of clicking into position which I really love. One of our main focuses is on maintaining the [ Read More…. ]

May we walk through the New Year of 2021 as fearless True Ones with clear vision and immense Love ~ embodiments of the Change we want to see in the World. With HUGE LOVE from the HEART OF AN in Peru! Solara • Emanáku Pedro • Alexander Luna • Leo • Manzana * Cachorro • [ Read More…. ]

On the Solstice, there was a call to join a ceremony centered in Uluru, Australia. This presented us with an interesting situation. There was something powerful and true about the call to align together all over the world. Yet, while this felt right, there were also elements which didn’t feel right. One of the strongest [ Read More…. ]

November was an action packed month full of steady changes ~ large and small. The Alpacas of AN were sheared so they won’t be so hot. Although they don’t like the shearing process (which is done very gently with scissors in Peru), immediately afterwards they are happy with their new lightness. German occasionally showed up [ Read More…. ]

The final week of October was action packed! On October 28, a sudden fire broke out at the bottom of our valley. This was caused by some of our neighbors burning garbage (on garbage pick up day!). Since we are just finishing an extremely dry, dry season, the fire quickly went out of control. The [ Read More…. ]

After many months of being in a somewhat dormant state or what felt like a prolonged holding pattern, fresh new energies started entering the Heart of AN. We planted new flowers in anticipation of our usual rainy season ~ which didn’t arrive as expected in October, following an extremely dry winter. German and his crew [ Read More…. ]

Around the beginning of September, the Peruvian Post Office finally reopened! (It had been closed since the middle of March.) This meant that we could finally send all the orders we’d received for the past six months. We’ve been waiting for this for a long time. But like everything happening right now, there’s always a [ Read More…. ]
