AN•TAWA CEREMONIES 2 • Day 2 – More Preparations

Oct 30 2022 in Blog by Solara

On our second day of preparations, we painted our Drums of AN. This is always a collaboration between the Keeper of the Drum, the Drum itself and the AN energies. The theme is the Sun and Moon as One Being. It is fun to watch the design emerge.

After lunch, we ceremonially filled bottles of water that would be offerings to two Sacred Lakes. Later that afternoon, we took our family of Drums of AN to the Tower of Light where they were properly introduced. We always do this before they can be played. It’s an amazing experience when our Drums of AN enter the Eleven Concentric Circles there, each of us stepping closer to the center one at a time. It always triggers deep remembrances of the Timeless True Worlds.

Now our two days of preparation were over and we were ready for the AN•TAWA Ceremonies to begin.

: Leaving the Pozo, it suddenly felt right to walk backwards up the hill.

: A final expression of love to the sacred water.

: It felt perfect to walk backwards all the way to our house.

: People have been giving us bottles of sacred water from all over the world for many years. We have water from both sacred springs in Glastonbury, from Besakih Temple in Bali, Lake Manrosovar in Tibet, Isla Amantani in Lago Titicaca, Uluru, Machu Picchu and many other special places. It felt good to share their waters with two of our Andean Sacred Lakes.
We now added a drop of each special water to the bottles we had just filled.

: The final closing of the water bottles. Now they are ready to go to the Sacred Lakes.

: In the afternoon, we visited the Tower of AN ~ the anchoring point of the New Reality.

: It was time for all our Drums of AN to be properly introduced.

: We held our Drums on high so they could be seen by the Sky. While we did this bright colors and moving lights appeared. As soon as we started playing our drums, the bright colors disappeared.
Here’s a link to the short video of this. https://vimeo.com/773149503/1dc894fb9a. It was not raining at the time; the sounds of water are from our canal.
Also: Manzana is anchoring the energies in the center.

: In the center of the Eleven Concentric Circles, we played our Drums of AN together for the very first time.
It felt as if we had returned home with our True Family.

: Each time that we come together, there’s a new configuration of the Drums of AN.

: HERE WE ARE!

: At the end of our ceremony, we moved outwards into the next circle ~ step by step, one at a time. Expanding the energies of AN throughout the Worlds within Worlds.
