Our first Heart of AN Wedding! (Part 1)
Last Sunday was our first Heart of AN wedding. Since it was the first one here, it felt appropriate that Emanaku and I were the ones getting married. And so we did!!
It was a very simple, but extremely deep, ceremony with eleven guests: Indigo of the US, Keenuane and Nuna (Jessica) of Mexico, Sebastian of Germany, Walter and Julie of Switzerland and US, Anastra of Australia, Angelika and Milciades of Chile, plus Eloy and Juana of Peru.
Since this was the first AN wedding, it definitely wasn’t traditional. It was interactive and created by all of us in the preceding days. Our wedding took place at the AN•Chakana which was beautifully decorated with multi-colored tin stars and mirror strands hanging from pieces of bamboo. The wedding was in four parts and between each part, everyone came up on the chakana in an ever flowing dance, then rotated position around the chakana.
After our ceremony, we quietly sat on the upper level of our ceremonial area, playing music with drums, Tibetan ting shaw cymbals and Australian Aboriginal clicking sticks from Uluru while basking in the extremely powerful energies. Then we had a delicious lunch prepared by Ludo and Zobeida in our fairy circle while a strong wind suddenly appeared and almost blew us away.
In the afternoon the weather turned sunny and calm, so after opening some wondrous wedding presents in our house, we all went to the new AN•Labyrinth and walked the labyrinth for the very first time. It was amazing. It felt like each step we made took us deeper and deeper into the New Reality.
The entire day was very relaxed in spite of the super strong energies and powerful solar storms which took place all day. It was the most exquisite wedding I have ever experienced. So very new, pure and absolutely TRUE.
-
- Indigo, Anastra and Keenuane were busy for days preparing the gorgeous wedding decorations for the AN•Chakana.
-
- The mirror garlands for the AN•Chakana were hung up in our entrada so they wouldn’t tangle. Rainbow ones for the Sun Doorway, purple & blue mirrors for the Moon Door and clear mirrors for the Inka and AN Doorways.
-
- Milciades hangs the mirror strands on a piece of bamboo suspended between mirrored pedestals.
-
- We carefully bring the mirror garlands to the AN•Chakana.
-
- The colored tin stars were brought over to the AN•Chakana while the energies became ever stronger.
-
- The Heart of AN received a beautiful pewter Sun-Moon AN disc from the Heart of Chile via Angelika and Milciades
-
- Everyone joined together to decorate the AN•Chakana which was a lot of fun.
-
- The mirrors in the center of the multi-colored stars sent forth myriad dancing lights!
-
- The tin stars were in four colors. Gold and silver for the Sun and Moon, magenta and green for AN. They look soooo beautiful!
-
- The mirrors and stars are exquisite in front of the Andean Apus and Heaven.

-
- On the morning of our wedding, Anastra, Walter, Julie and Keenuane scattered rose petals around the chakana and labyrinth.
-
- Here’s Julie with rose petals for the AN•Chakana!
-
- Anastra came all the way from Australia. It is so wonderful to see her again!
-
- Here is the AN•Chakana ready for our wedding.
-
- Emanaku’s very joyous procession came from the entrance side of our land.
-
- My extremely focused procession came from the far side of the land. And we were joined by Cachorro!
-
- The two processions began with the sound of Q’ero pitutus (conch shell trumpets).
-
- It was very exciting as we approached the entrance to our ceremonial area and could finally see the procession from the other side of the land coming closer.
-
- Here we are on the upper level. Our small group came from seven countries.
-
- Eloy and Sebastian played their pitutus at each of the four doorways of the AN•Chakana.
-
- And now we descend to the AN•Chakana for our first Heart of AN wedding…..
From what I could see of the pictures it looks like a very beautiful wedding. Very gentle, very touching and very honorable. I am so happy for the both of you.
