Early on the morning of December 15th, 2007, a group of people began to assemble on a spit of land that protrudes into Lake Peten Itza from the middle of the village of El Remate to begin the first of 7 Mayan Fire Ceremonies to take us to the Winter Solstice late on the night of December 21st.
The ceremonies were facilitated by Tata Pedro Cruz (left) who was supported by Tata Mariano (middle) and Nana Maria (right).
At various times throughout the ceremonies, Tata Pedro would keep time with his drum as the prayer incence was offered to the Sacred Fire and the 20 Naguales were called to be present.
There was lots of time for music ...
And Ayah was once again leading the Unificacion Dancers through the dance of Unificacion that they have been developing for three years
