Tchydjo's Fire Ceremony CP 07
 
Full Moon night Tchydjo conducted a Fire Ceremony. The next day I captured some of the folk art that makes CP so charming
 

   


Surrounded by rain forrest, we prepare for the ceremony
The fire is built outside our practice room
Awasury prepares himself with the sacred smoke
It is slightly hallucinogenic
The full moon came out from dense clouds
The dance began, vigorous and demanding
Concentrration was required
 
 
 
A meditative walk, prepare to go deeper
 
Dance of the birds, remember relationship
a tricky business, a balancing act
Awasury delights in the challenge
So does Anahata
 
 
Jorge and Myriangela
 
 
 
Anahata & Gisele from Brasilia
 
 
 
 
 
The next morning this baby was found outside the manager's home.
We were on the alert. He said...."the blessing of the forest people"
Sharing with you some of the beauty that surrounded us all week

Everywhere inviting nooks to sit and chat, this one guarded by an elf
outside our bedroom windows
The ever present Arara, Mr Amazon Parrot, a fiesty friend
 
Last morning ceremonies, we were adorned with feathers
A gift to Tchydjo, White Tara's Long Life Blessing
A gift for Awasury, Prayer Flags to bless the forrest
Tchydjo explains the closing ceremony, healing and inviting good dreams
Come, give us your dreams and we will call them with you
Dream your wishes into reality
