MAYAN SPACE-TIME TRAVEL

A pilgrimage through fire, water, earth, wind and space-time

Why go?

Would you like to feel the millenary Mayan spirituality and culture, in a deep travel to time-space embracing the Cholq’ij or Mayan Sacred Calendar in Guatemala and feeling how it connects to your spirit?

Do you want to feel yourself even more through the face of your energy while is reflected in the Mayan spiritual elements?

Join us to this spiritual journey to space-time in Mayan land in Guatemala. A deep travel into the ancient and actual Mayan sacred places through different spiritual practices, that go beyond rituals, guided by Ajq’ijab’ -Mayan Timekeepers and Shamans that will guide us to connect with the Universe’s inner energy that lives inside of us.

During this twenty-day travel, we will go through the secrets of ancient and actual Mayan people and places. We will experience how the Maya have kept their spirituality and knowledge alive through symbols immersed in the Mayan traditional cloth, rituals, traditional markets and pyramids, and in a “hidden” way in the facades of colonial structures.

Sacred places like caves, hot springs, volcanoes, lakes, mountains, forests... will be embraced while we share fire, water, wind, earth and time-space ceremonies with weavers, herbalists, time-keepers, healers, artists and historians that contribute to keep alive the Mayan Cosmo-vision.

Pilgrimage

In our journey, a twenty-day cycle will be followed, according to the energies of the Cholq’ij or Sacred Mayan Lunar Calendar. We will try to experience every activity according to the principles of the Mayan spirituality. In some places, Mayan community organizations will host us.
Everyone will get a reading of its personal flower or map according to the Cholq’ij in Xelajuj N’oj the highlands in south west of Guatemala where a purifying ritual with water will take place.
Rilaj Mam, the ancient Mayan Space-Time Keeper will wait for us in the beautiful and sacred Lake Atitlán where there will be an encounter with weavers and herbalists that will share how they have kept the Mayan wisdom alive through weaving and herbs.
A very ancient Mayan market in the town of Chichicastenango will host us and a fire ceremony, in an ancient sacred place, will prepare us to get back to the Universe’s womb.
Shamans will guide a ritual of healing, according to everyone’s needs, through the Tuj or Temazcal (low heat sweat lodge) in the town of Chinique de las Flores.
We will move to the Atlantic coast to visit the ancient city of Quirigua with its beautiful and artistic monuments, where there is a stele that tells the Mayan creation story, we will do an offering with incenses to remind us that we are called to create and recreate life.

And to feel that, Río Dulce, as one of the ancient Mayan routes, with its islands of birds and water lilies will embrace us.
The jungle then will be appreciated from El Remate Biotope and from the pyramids of the majestic ancient cities of Tikal and Yaxhá. These cities evoke the sounds of the Mayan past and present.
The element earth in the Quetzal’s Biotope, Los Nacimientos Caves and the beauty of Semuc Champey will make us reconnect with our harmonious self.
In the colonial city of Antigua Guatemala, a researcher of Mayan culture will help us to decode the symbols that the Mayan people left “hidden” in the facades of catholic colonial churches.
And then we will be ready to get to horse ride to the top of the Pacaya volcano and to recognize that we are the fire of the Universe that should give heat and hope.
Our journey will end with a gratefulness ceremony.

Astrologe, kunstenaar en onafhankelijke filmmaakster.

Oprichter G-Network-Film foundation

Sinds 1982 studeer ik astrologie er groeide een steeds diepere interesse in de technieken, rituelen en geschiedenis van astrologie en alles wat daarmee verbonden blijkt te zijn. Ik volgde verschillende opleidingen in Frankrijk, India, New York en Amsterdam. Mijn horoscoop heb ik door zoveel mogelijk professionals wereldwijd laten lezen en die praktijk was misschien wel het leerzaamst. Uit de verschillende technieken en praktijkervaring waarin ik die heb leren beheersen is nu mijn geheel eigen benadering uitgekristalliseerd; We are Stardust is een levendige praktijk in Amsterdam en online. Verder organiseer ik astrologische salons; lezingen en workshops en schrijf columns voor verschillende tijdschriften. Sinds 2017 organiseer ik astrologische pelgrimstochten: Space Time Travels.

Astrologie inspireerde me verder als Kunstenaar en Filmmaker. In 1992- 1995 verzorgde ik tweemaandelijkse radio programma op radio Patapoe voor de stad Amsterdam en een radio documentaire over de horoscoop van het vorige leven waarvoor ik in India beroemde Vedische astrologen bezocht.

Sinds 1987 reis ik regelmatig naar Tamil Nadu, Zuid India, een gebied dat een kosmologische geschiedenis in pelgrimages kent: Onderzoekswerk om dit in beeld te brengen werd geëxposeerd in Galerie De Praktijk, het Wereld Museum, EYE FilmInstituut, DasArts, Test Portal en het Tropenmuseum. Onder andere dankzij het Nederlands Film Fonds ontstond een scenario voor de film www.dramayama.com over astrologische tempelrituelen.
