AN•TAWA CEREMONIES 3 • Day 5 – RAQCH’I

AN•TAWA CEREMONIES 3 • Day 5 – RAQCH’I – Part 1

May 16 2023 in Blog by Solara

This was one of the most unforgettable days of my life. It was far beyond my Wildest Dreams that we would be able to go to the Temple of Wiracocha ~ the Creator ~ to make an AN•TAWA Ceremony there. And it all came together at the very last minute. We departed the Heart of AN at 4:00 in the morning and after a three hour drive, arrived in Raqch’i. There was still frost on the plants and mist arising from the river. The village was still asleep and we were the only ones there. It was like visiting a Timeless True World.

We walked in a loose procession to the Sacred Fountains. The energy was amazing. We felt the powerful presence of Wiracocha who opened magenta portals in front of us, wholeheartedly welcoming the Family of AN. At the Sacred Fountains, the sounds of our six Pututus traveled far. Then we poured the water offerings that we had prepared the day before into the Sacred Fountains.

That’s when Martina Mamani arrived. She is the Guardian of Raqch’i. We all loved her immediately. She immediately stepped into our ceremony, which was now feeling that it had long been preordained. :: HERE WE ARE :: MORE TO COME….

: After leaving the Heart of AN at 4:00 am and then riding in a van for three hours, we finally saw our first glimpse of the very sacred Temple of Wiracocha in Raqch’i.

: Raqch’i was very happy that we were there! Even though the Sun had not completely arisen, if you look carefully at the wall, there is a rainbow! It’s actually a double rainbow, with the second rainbow visible in the upper right corner.
