Description: Inca chakana necklace, also known as the Andean Cross or Southern Cross, is a spiritual symbol of great importance in the Andean worldview. The word "chakana" comes from Quechua, where "chaka" means "bridge" and "hanaq" means "up," suggesting that the Chakana is a bridge or connection between the earthly world and the spiritual world. The Chakana represents the interconnection between the human world, the spiritual world, and the universe. It is considered a symbol that connects the three worlds of the Andean worldview. The Chakana also symbolizes the balance and harmony that must exist between human beings and nature, between the spiritual and the physical, and between the masculine and the feminine. The four arms of the Chakana are associated with the four cardinal directions (north, south, east, west) and the four fundamental elements (earth, water, air, fire). As a symbol of spiritual connection, the Chakana is used in Andean rituals and ceremonies to ask for protection, guidance, and wisdom from the Apus (mountain spirits) and ancestors.
