Fall Equinox Despacho & Sacred Fire Ceremony with Victoria Johnson

Fall Equinox Despacho & Sacred Fire Ceremony The Ayni Despacho - In the Q’ero tradition, healers create a Despacho (a Q’uechua word meaning a dispatch) for rites of passage such as marriages, births, birthdays, deaths, Solstices, Equinoxes, and other transitions. There are several kinds of despachos, each with a specific purpose. An Ayni Despacho is an envelope of dreams. It helps bring all aspects of our life into Ayni (right relationship). It begins with a large white piece of paper to which we add ingredients such as bay leaves, herbs, grains, beans and corn, fruit, chocolate, sugar, candies, wine, sacred items, and flowers. We will use our breath to infuse the bay leaves with our gratitude and highest intentions for our lives. Our focus will be on Health, Work, Abundance, Family, Travel, and our Home (literal home, potential home, earth, nature). Also, we will offer our highest wishes for the Collective. Once complete, we will fold our Despacho into a bundle and tie it. Participants are cleansed with the Despacho, and the package (which very much resembles a present now) will be burned – so that the intentions/prayers can release. In the Fire Ceremony Q’ero elders, and many other indigenous societies, hold sacred fire ceremonies to dream the world into being. The new or full moon is the most powerful time for a fire ceremony. We use sticks to hold our intentions, and .. Give to the fire that which no longer serves, or that which is not held in love.
