Ceremonial Cacao

According to both archeologists and Mayan spiritual elders, the Cacao Spirit was one of the most powerful deities in ancient Mayan cosmology. The Mayans discovered the cacao tree and gave it a divine status. Cacao beans were very lightly roasted and ground, after which a bitter hot chocolate drink was prepared, using hot water, to which sometimes cayenne pepper, vanilla, cinnamon, cardamon and honey was added. It was used in religious ceremonies, buried in the tombs of high priests and used to worship Ek Chuah, the Mayan god of merchants and patron saint of cacao. The Aztecs later believed that the cacao drink served as a life elixir for the wealthy elite of priests and other dignitaries and gave them supernatural strength and performance ability and hence its importance grew.

In modern day, since cacao is said to have the ability to connect to your heart chakra, it contributes to every transformational shift you set your intention upon, whether it is to see through and let go of old patterns and traumas, or to a deeper understanding of yourself and your unique path of life. It is said that cacao has the potential to lift the veil of the seen world, giving you access to the world of the unseen. In modern day, Ceremonial Cacao in India is consumed by practitioners who teach Yoga, Mindfulness, Chakra, Metta, Vipassana, Guided, Transcendental, Concentrative meditation and sound healing. The raw & minimally processed version of cacao used for cacao ceremonies is called ceremonial cacao.

Ceremonial Cacao is perceived as a medicine known as soft, feminine and loving and stimulates the heart to open, strengthens the feeling of connection with yourself and the people around you. It is seen as the ultimate heart opener. During a cacao ceremony, supporting techniques are used to ensure that the cacao and the experience do their work optimally. Depending on the shaman who accompanies the process, ceremonial songs, prayer, yoga, sound (or other) meditation and dance will be used.

The combination of drinking Raw Ceremonial Cacao and experiencing Tantric Breath, Sound, Movement and Meditation is explained as explosive & heart-opening, raising the vibrational frequency within all the cells of your body and opening the doors to dimensions of Pleasure, Bliss, Sensuality and Peace that enable us to move into a new sense of our body.
