An Invitation to Co-Create
At the sacred moment of the Equinox, day and night meet in perfect balance, inviting us to pause at the threshold between what has been and what is yet to come.
Together, we will co-create a Despacho, a sacred offering woven from gratitude, prayers, and intention. A Despacho is composed of items known as recados (message transmitters), each infused with heartfelt prayers and ceremonially arranged into a beautiful mandala-like pattern. As each recado is placed, we weave our individual blessings into a collective offering for Mother Earth and the unseen forces that support life.
As we gather in sacred reciprocity, we honor the gifts we have received, release what no longer serves, and welcome the wisdom and possibilities of the season ahead.
If you feel called to stand at this threshold with us, we warmly welcome your presence.
What to bring:
· You are invited to bring one or more natural or organic items that symbolize balance, gratitude, or harmony in your life. As we co-create the Despacho, these offerings will be infused with our collective prayers and intentions, becoming part of a sacred mandala of gratitude and reciprocity. As offerings, they will remain with the Despacho and will not be returned.
· A pair of socks, a drum, a rattle, or a music maker if you have one to play.

About Chio:
Chio’s passion for healing started in 1992 when she became a Physical Therapist specializing in neurological and vestibular rehabilitation.

In 2019, Chio was introduced to the significance of rituals and ceremonies through the Pachakuti Mesa Tradition, a gateway to a heart centered connection with the Lineages of South America. She is immensely honored to be of service to Pachamama and to all life on Pachamama. She embodies compassion and guides students through this multi-layered tradition while providing a supportive space for personal healing and transformation. Chio resides in Sacramento, California.

Through this transformative journey, she acquired essential practices to remove the barriers to healing. Here, she embraced foundational principles for deep, transformative healing and embarked on pathways to personal sovereignty.
