Andean Black Meteorite Chumpi Power Stone 14cm – Shamanic Ritual Stone

In Andean spiritual tradition, meteorite stones are regarded as gifts from the heavens—carriers of star wisdom and powerful cosmic force. When shaped into a Chumpi Stone, this celestial material becomes a bridge between the moon cycles, the stars, and the living Earth.

The 13 moons represent the complete lunar cycle, including the visible and hidden phases of the moon. These cycles govern ritual timing, spiritual insight, and the balance between light and shadow.

The Q’ero 13 Moons Chumpi Meteorite Stone honours Mama Killa (Mama Kia), the Inca moon goddess and Mother Moon, while simultaneously invoking cosmic star energy. Historical accounts recorded by Father Bernabé Cobo (16th century) describe the moon’s role in guiding ritual calendars and sacred timekeeping aligned with the solar year.

Because of its meteoritic origin, this Chumpi Stone is traditionally reserved for serious ceremonial work, used as a focal object for deep transformation, energetic protection, and ancestral connection.

Design & Symbolism

The stone features 13 ringed points, symbolising the lunar cycles and the unseen 13th moon associated with hidden knowledge and gifted insight.

The underside carving of three sacred leaves (k’intu) represents the unity of body, mind, and heart. In Andean practice, the k’intu anchors prayers and blessings, reinforcing balance and intention during ceremony.

Each meteorite Chumpi Stone is hand-worked rather than mass-carved, preserving the natural texture and energetic character of the stone while honouring ancestral craftsmanship.
