Three dimensions.
One map. That’s you.
Most systems show you one dimension of who you are. INTI NAN integrates three – revealing something no single framework can produce on its own. Here is everything you need to know before you begin.
5-minute read · No belief required · All free to exploreYour soul’s origin. Your personality. Your healing path.
Each one useful on its own – but still incomplete.
The Q’ero never separated them. They understood: your soul type, personality, and healing path are one. Where all three converge – that exact intersection – is yours alone. One of 189 Pathways™.
Within each healing path, your pathway gravitates toward one primary expression – the specific mechanism through which change actually happens for you.

Start with one world.
Three worlds. Nine free tests. Nine in-depth guides. You can explore each dimension on its own before committing to the complete picture. Most people feel the recognition by the second test. All free. No email or account required.
Each test reveals one dimension. The Karpay maps all three at once – the only place where your Soul Type, Enneagram, and Healing Path converge into a single named picture.
Ready to see all three at once?
Karpay (kar-PIE) – the sacred Andean initiation that reveals who you truly are. When you are ready to stop exploring one world at a time and see the complete picture, the Karpay maps all three dimensions into the specific pathway that is yours. One of 189. Already yours to walk.
Life stops feeling like a fight you don’t know how to win. You understand why you are the way you are, which people are meant to be near you, and what to do next – and you stop trying to be someone you’re not.
What Is INTI NAN, and How Does It Work?
What is INTI NAN?
INTI NAN (IN-tee NYAHN) is a self-knowledge platform built on Andean Q’ero cosmology that integrates three distinct frameworks into a single portrait of a person. The three frameworks are the Enneagram, which maps personality type across nine types including The Reformer, The Helper, The Achiever, The Individualist, The Investigator, The Loyalist, The Enthusiast, The Challenger, and The Peacemaker; Soul Type, which maps essential nature across seven archetypes including Server, Artisan, Warrior, Scholar, Sage, Priest, and King; and Healing Pathway, which maps how a person transforms across three approaches: Energy Healing, Karmic Healing, and Shamanic Healing. The intersection of all three produces one of 189 uniquely named pathways.
What is the Karpay, and what does the name mean?
Karpay (kar-PIE) is a Quechua word meaning sacred initiation. In the INTI NAN system, the Karpay is the primary tri-dimensional recognition experience that maps all three coordinates simultaneously – Enneagram type through Kay Pacha, Soul Type through Hanan Pacha, and Healing Pathway through Ukhu Pacha – to produce the specific named pathway that belongs to that person from the 189 unique combinations. The first five chapters are completely free, revealing the pathway name and its core meaning. The complete 11-chapter initiation, which covers relationships, career, healing, and purpose, is available for $49.
How does the 189 pathway system work mathematically?
The 189 pathways are produced by the intersection of three independent dimensions: seven Soul Types multiplied by nine Enneagram types multiplied by three Healing Pathways equals 189 unique combinations. Every combination has its own name drawn from Quechua and Andean cosmological tradition. No two combinations are identical. Each pathway name describes a specific configuration of soul orientation, personality pattern, and healing mechanism that cannot be produced by any other combination of the three coordinates.
What are the three worlds in INTI NAN, and where do they come from?
The three worlds are drawn from Andean Q’ero cosmology, the spiritual tradition of the indigenous Q’ero people of the high Andes of Peru. Hanan Pacha (hah-NAHN PAH-chah), the Upper World, is the domain of soul essence and Soul Type, guarded by the Condor. Kay Pacha (KAY PAH-chah), the Middle World, is the domain of personality and Enneagram type, guarded by the Puma. Ukhu Pacha (OO-koo PAH-chah), the Lower World, is the domain of transformation and Healing Pathway, guarded by the Serpent. The three-world cosmological structure is documented in the anthropological and historical scholarship on Inca and Andean cosmology.
What is the difference between the free tests and the Karpay?
The nine free tests, three per world, explore each dimension independently. The Enneagram Discovery Test, Wings and Arrows Test, and Compatibility Test each surface one aspect of how you operate. The Soul Type Test, Soul Age Test, and Soul Contracts Test each surface one aspect of your essential nature. The Energy Healing Test, Karmic Healing Test, and Shamanic Healing Test each surface one aspect of how you transform. The Karpay integrates all three dimensions simultaneously, producing the one named pathway from 189 that belongs specifically to you. The free tests point toward a world. The Karpay names the exact intersection.
The Enneagram framework in its modern psychological form was developed by Oscar Ichazo and Claudio Naranjo in the 1960s and 1970s and has been extensively documented by the Enneagram Institute. The INTI NAN system adapts the Enneagram as one of three dimensions that together map a person’s full pathway.
The Soul Type framework is adapted from the Michael Teachings tradition, originally channeled by Chelsea Quinn Yarbro and developed across several decades of study. Within INTI NAN it represents the essence dimension of the pathway – what the person brought in rather than what they learned.
The three-world cosmological structure (Hanan Pacha, Kay Pacha, Ukhu Pacha) and the three healing pathways – Energy Healing (Kawsay Hampiy), Karmic Healing (Nawpa Hampiy), and Shamanic Healing (Paqo Hampiy) – are drawn from Andean Q’ero tradition, the indigenous Andean people widely regarded as the keepers of the original Inca spiritual tradition.
The framework is documented across anthropological and linguistic scholarship as a pre-Hispanic cosmological system rooted in the Quechua language. For further reading see the Pacha (Inca mythology) article, which draws on colonial Quechua sources including the chronicles of Jesuit historian Jose de Acosta, and Constance Classen, Inca Cosmology and the Human Body (University of Utah Press, 1993).
