Koya Raymi | 7 Day Ayahuasca Fall Equinox Immersion | Playa Grande, Costa Rica
With Michal - Sanken Koshi and Emma Alexander
September 18 - 24, 2026
THE RAINS ARE RETURNING
This is not a retreat. It is a gathering. A living prayer.
In the Andean tradition, Koya Raymi marks the sacred turning of the year — the time when the waters come back to the dry earth, when the feminine principle is honored, when we are invited to soften, to cleanse, and to receive.
This September, we gather at Ananda Lodge on the Pacific Coast of Costa Rica to enter this field together — as individuals, as couples, as community — and allow our own inner waters to move.
WHAT THIS IS
A 7-day immersive ceremony experience built on the bridge between Amazonian and Andean wisdom traditions. Three ceremonies. One community. The arc of the full equinox.
We move between the territory of the individual, the couple, the collective, and the land — held by two experienced ceremonial facilitators who carry these lineages with integrity, prayer, and lived practice.
THREE CEREMONIES
I. The Amazonian Root Held in the traditional way of the Yawanawan lineage. We enter in reverence, carried by the songs and protection of the tradition exactly as it has been passed down.
II. The Bridge Andean songs, icaros, and the facilitators’ own voice weave a ceremony of synthesis — mountain meeting jungle, lineage meeting present moment. This is where the integration begins.
III. Koya Raymi — The Offering The culminating ceremony of the equinox itself. A despacho is woven from the prayers and physical offerings of each participant — crystals, precious stones, metals, seeds, natural materials — and returned to Pachamama in reciprocity. Ayni.
