I offer fire ceremonies for a variety of purposes. These offerings to the Ancestors, Mayan dieties and spiritual energies of the Cholq’ij are created from natural materials like Caribbean pine, copal and other special “Mayan” incense, herbs, chocolate, honey, tobacco, flowers, candles, sugar and sweet breads. The “ofrenda”-or offering-is created to give thanks for our blessings, to open our pathways, to remove blocks and barriers, and to bless our health, family home, and new projects. Offerings for fire ceremonies are given to ask for permission to begin a project, purchase property, build a home, or initiate a new relationship. Fire ceremony is medicine, providing us with opportunities to withdraw sickness and ignite the healing abilities within us. Fire ceremony can also be used to do release work; it’s an exceptionally effective means of breaking down blocks and barriers in our thinking as well as removing emotional patterns from traumas and grief. Fire ceremony is a powerful means of expressing our gratitude which is at the core of all ceremony and is therefore appropriate to celebrate graduations, abundance received, projects completed, and anything else that your heart desires.
