Mayan Fire Ceremony Feb 26th, 2012 in Santa Ynez, CA

Join us as we initiate a Ceremonial Fireplace in Santa Ynez, CA. Come bring your prayers to this sacred and powerful ceremony!

The Mayan Fire Ceremony is a way of creating a vortex of energy that can be used as a portal into the Spirit world, where we can receive healings and offer prayers. The Mayan fire ceremonies do not use any wood. With prayers, a mandala is created out of natural materials. The ensarte and other herbs such as copal, cascarita, bolas, mirra, cuilco, pom blanco, and others are grown or collected by the traditional Maya in Guatemala and are prepared in a sacred way for these fire ceremonies. The offerings that we put into the fire carry our prayers to the Creator. Each offering carries a different energy and intention, a different prayer, and the combination is a rich banquet of energies offered to the Creator.

The Nine Personal Fires Training June 19th - July 1st, 2012 at Deer Mountain (Northen CA near Mt Shasta)

The spiritual guides and teachers of the Maya have maintained their ceremonial initiations through a series of individual sacred Mayan Fire Ceremonies. This initiation is dedicated to the preservation of our ceremonial life, to be shared with initiates from All of our Peoples. We have been asked to share the fire in this way so that we can create powerful, lasting spiritual alliances and work toward the preservation of our Mother Earth and all our Relations by sharing sacred ways that individuals can use for their own healing and empowerment. This process does not make anyone an Aj Q'ij (ceremonial leader), and is to only be used personally. This does not give anyone permission to lead these ceremonies for others!
