# Andean Three Worlds Altar Stones – Serpent, Jaguar & Condor Shamanic Set (8cm)

## **Andean Three Worlds Shaman Stones – Serpent, Jaguar & Condor Ritual Altar Set (8–9cm each)**

This symbolic set of **Andean Three Worlds Shaman Stones** represents one of the most enduring teachings of **Inca and Andean cosmology** — the understanding that life unfolds across **three interconnected worlds**. Represented by the **Serpent, Jaguar, and Condor**, these stones reflect a worldview preserved by the **Q’ero lineage of the Peruvian Andes**, often regarded as guardians of ancient Inca spiritual knowledge.

Carved from natural soapstone, these stones are also widely understood as **Pachamama Earth Stones**, honouring Mother Earth as the living foundation of all spiritual and human experience. Traditionally arranged on **mesas (Andean altars)**, the stones are used as symbolic markers for intention, reflection, and balance, rather than as tools of force.

Together, they express the relationship between **Earth and Sky**, and between the **physical, emotional, and spiritual aspects** of human life. Presented as a unified set, they may also be worked with individually to focus specific intentions aligned with each world. Their presence on an altar serves as a quiet reminder that harmony arises when all realms are acknowledged and honoured.

## **Key Symbolism – The Three Worlds**

In Andean and Inca cosmology, existence is understood through three overlapping realms. These stones embody that teaching in physical form and symbolic gesture.

### **Serpent – Lower World (Uku Pacha)**

Associated with **Pachamama (Mother Earth)**, the Serpent represents grounding, instinct, renewal, and transformation. It corresponds to the **physical world** — the body, nature, ancestry, and the cycles of life.

### **Jaguar – Middle World (Kay Pacha)**

The Jaguar symbolises strength, protection, emotional intelligence, and courage. It reflects the **emotional and relational world**, where human experience, challenge, learning, and personal power unfold.

### **Condor – Upper World (Hanaq Pacha)**

The Condor embodies vision, higher awareness, and connection to the unseen. It represents the **spiritual world**, offering perspective, clarity, and connection to greater patterns beyond the everyday.

Together, the three stones form a symbolic map of balance — **body, heart, and spirit held in right relationship**.
