WORKSHOP ON PERSONAL OFFERINGS TO MOTHER EARTH

“Learn how to make your own offering to Mother Earth

in reciprocity for all her Love and Sustenance”

In this workshop, each participant will experience the creation of his/her own offering, his/her own sacred geometry for the Mother that takes care of our daily sustenance, Mother Earth.  She needs our love and gratitude, that we feed her, as she feeds us and gives us shelter.  This simple ritual has a deep   significance within us, it reconnects us with the simplicity and beauty of nature, that relaxes us, brings inner peace to ourselves and allows us to be in that needed silence to be able to look inside, to raise our consciousness.

This offering's most elevate purpose is to propitiate the union among all living creatures, the Cosmos and Nature. Its everyday use is to ask for favors or to thank for what has been received. An Offering in the Andean world is the best way of reciprocity with Mother Earth, giving her back the best fruits with which she provides us, each participant becomes the offering itself. Afterwards, this offering will be burned, buried in Mother Earth (Mama Pacha) or offered to Mother Ocean (Mama Qocha), following ancestral rites.
