The Activation of the Tower of Light of AN: Part One
On May 23 was the long awaited Activation of the Tower of Light of AN. Before that, we had five days of preparation. We were blessed with a strong group of twenty-two brilliant True Ones, many of whom had participated in various 11:11 Master Cylinders.
Since we have well over 4,000 photos of our time together, it has taken a week to narrow them down to our Six Part Photo Journey. It is our hope that from these photos, you will be able to feel the energy of this momentous Activation of the Tower of Light of AN.
Here is Part One, presented to you with much LOVE….

-
- On the first day of our six days together, we put up our ceremonial flags from Bali.
-
- It always feels very special when our ceremonial banners go up!
-
- Here are banners in magenta and green ~ the colors of AN! They were set up all across our land. Photo by Ankasha.
-
- The ceremonial banners look gorgeous with flowers and our new bench! Photo by Ankasha.
-
- Two white banners with golden Lotuses were placed on either side of the new entrance to our AN•Sonqo land. They look so beautiful and majestic here.
-
- We took our lliclias to the AN•Chakana where we merged with Pachamama. This was much needed grounding since the energies were becoming stronger every moment.
-
- We had an amazing group of twenty-two extremely dedicated participants, many of whom had participated in the 11:11 Master Cylinders and know how to hold the energy and focus for a real ceremony. Here are Sebastian of Germany and Ankasha from Mexico. Photo by Keenuane.
-
- Kalasara and her daughter Makaya from Hawaii were happy to see their beloved Indigo, and so were we! It was such a gathering of our True Family. Photo by Ankasha.

- Throughout our preparations for the Activation of the Tower of Light of AN, Emanaku still had to run out and supervise Roberto and his crew as they put yeso plaster on the right side of our main gate. It will be so pretty when this side is finally plastered and painted. We’ve wanted to do this for years. Photo by Keenuane.
-
- At night, the sitting area outside of AN•Wasi was a popular hangout, especially when a fire was built in the outdoor fireplace. Photo by Lili.
-
- The amazing and super creative Keenuane from Mexico! Photo by Cristine.

-
- Manzana received an abundance of love and attention. She genuinely cared about everyone here and took turns giving love to everyone. Here she is shaking hands with Makaya. (Her one trick!)
-
- Galina and Svetlana were the first Russians to participate in a ceremony at the Heart of AN. We could feel how important this was, as they brought their whole country with them. Coming here was especially brave for Galina, since she only speaks Russian. Fortunately, Svetlana translated for her.
The Fire Ceremony
-
- To facilitate letting go of anything which was ready to be released before the Activation, we had a Fire Ceremony on the afternoon of our very first day. Photo by Keenuane.
-
- Here is Ankara! Throughout our Fire Ceremony, many cute Fire Dragons appeared. Photo by Ankasha.
-
- The friendly Fire Dragons really came out to greet Anna from Spain. Photo by Emanaku.

-
- As always, our Fire Ceremonies are very powerful as much is released. Here is Emanaku! Photo by Ankasha.
-
- As I spoke to the fire using her Quechua name of Nina, she opened up and revealed herself.
-
- Lucy from Mexico with focused intent.
-
- Alaena from England.
-
- Nina is from Sweden, but lives in the US. This photo is Nina with her sister Nina (the Fire)!
-
- Keenuane puts one of her sticks into the fire.
-
- Sebastian makes the rounds with extra sticks for those who want to release more into the fire.
-
- By the end of our Fire Ceremony, much had been released and we all felt infinitely lighter.
