A Three-Day Ceremony With Grandmothers

Beloved Community, This November, we are called into a circle of prayer, healing, & unity.

From November 14th – 16th, 2025, Santa Fe, New Mexico will host Guardians of the Sacred: Ancestral Teachings for Global Awakening.

For three sacred days, Indigenous Grandmothers, Elders, & Wisdom Keepers from around the world will gather to share teachings, songs, & ceremonies for the healing of Mother Earth & the generations to come. Together, we will also celebrate the 15th Anniversary of the Temple of the Golden Child, a vision of divine light & remembrance entrusted to Grandmother Flordemayo.

Why This Matters – The Golden Child Vision

In 2010, during sacred prayer, Grandmother Flordemayo received a vision. She was shown an egg of Earth, which as she sang prayers of love, transformed into crystalline snowflakes. From within, a golden newborn child emerged — a symbol of humanity’s highest potential.

Her words remind us:

“We all have the capacity to become that Golden Being, whether we are male or female. When we reach that place of spirituality, we transform into this Golden Being.”

This vision gave rise to the Temple of the Golden Child, and it continues to guide the heart of our work today. 

 

Mission

Our mission is to gather Indigenous Grandmothers, Elders, Wisdom Keepers, and Seed Stewards from around the world to share sacred teachings that reconnect us to the land, the elements, and ancestral traditions. Together, we will honor:

The Sacredness of Traditional Knowledge – ancestral ways as guides for healing, balance, and resilience.
The Power of Ceremony & Ritual – creating spaces of gratitude, alignment, and healing with the Earth and our Ancestors.
The Sacred Seeds of the Future – uplifting seed keepers and land stewards who protect biodiversity and the spirit of food and plants.
The Four Directions & Elements – remembering the balance of Earth, Water, Fire, and Air in sustaining life and transformation.


Vision

We envision a world where Indigenous wisdom, ceremony, and ancestral knowledge are honored, protected, and preserved as essential for the healing of humanity and Mother Earth. A world where ancient ways guide us forward, and future generations continue to walk in reverence, reciprocity, and respect for all life.

This gathering is a call to remember, a call to heal, and a call to protect the sacred.

PROGRAM

Thursday, November 13th ~  Benefit Dinner with the Guardians

Theme: GUARDIANSHIP, LOYALTY & HARMONY  (8 Tz’i’ on the Mayan Calendar)

On this day, the Nawal 8 Tz’i’ invites us to reflect on loyalty, guardianship, and the sacred balance of life. Tz’i’ is the companion and protector, the one who walks beside us with devotion and helps restore harmony when there is imbalance. It is a day to honor truth spoken with sweetness, to recognize the guiding laws of nature, and to offer prayers for justice, peace, and compassion in our communities.

Our Benefit Dinner with the Guardians takes place under this gentle and protective sign. Gathering at the table, we are reminded that nourishment is an act of loyalty to one another and to the Earth. This meal is not just sustenance, but a sacred circle of protection and blessing, where stories are exchanged and prayers are spoken for harmony and balance. In the spirit of 8 Tz’i’, we begin our gathering with gratitude, solidarity, and the shared intention to walk forward together as guardians of the sacred.

6:00–9:00 pm – Benefit Dinner with the Guardians
A sacred evening of prayer, meal, and sharing stories with the Elders and Wisdom Keepers.

 

Friday, November 14th ~ Day One

Theme: WEAVING THE THREAD OF CONNECTION (9 B’atz on the Mayan Calendar)

On 9 B’atz’, the Nawal of thread, time, and creation, we honor women as the source of life and beauty. This day is about weaving unity, strengthening relationships, and remembering that we are threads in the great cosmic fabric of existence. It is a day for beginnings, for art, for love, and for celebrating the creative energy of the feminine.

As the opening of our sacred gathering, Friday invites us to step into the loom of time itself. We are called to weave our stories together with those of our Ancestors and to strengthen the thread of community. Each teaching, song, and prayer on this day is part of a larger tapestry that holds us in remembrance of who we are and why we have come together in this moment.

Theme: ABUNDANCE, RENEWAL & BLOSSOMING OF LIFE  (11 Aj on the Mayan Calendar)

11 Aj is the Nawal of trees, abundance, and renewal. It is a day to give thanks for creation’s generosity, to pray for abundance in our lives, and to remember that hope overcomes chaos. Aj reminds us that like trees, we are rooted in spirit, reaching upward in renewal, and offering shelter, wisdom, and life to those around us.

On this final day, we gather in gratitude for all that has been shared and in hope for the generations to come. Sunday is a day of renewal, when we return to our communities carrying seeds of prayer and abundance to plant in our own soil.

Monday, November 17 –  {Optional} Post-Retreat Excursion to Chaco Canyon (Day of 12 I’x)

Theme: JAQUAR WISDOM, FEMININE POWER & MOTHER EARTH 

On this day, the Nawal 12 I’x brings us into deep connection with the sacred feminine, the jaguar, and the mysteries of Mother Earth. I’x is the energy of the jungle, the mountains, and the altar of life itself. It is a day to honor women and their creative power, to walk with reverence for Earth, and to listen closely to the spirits of nature. The jaguar teaches us balance in the wild, and I’x opens our hearts to magic, beauty, and the hidden wisdom of the universe.

Our pilgrimage to Chaco Canyon falls under this powerful sign, making it a journey of both body and spirit. Chaco is a place where the stones themselves speak, where the sky aligns with sacred architecture, and where the Ancestors left messages in harmony with the stars. Guided by GB Cornucopia, Dr. Cherilynn Morrow, and Dr. Glenn Aparicio Parry, we will walk upon sacred ground, visit Pueblo Bonito and Middle Place, and listen for the jaguar’s whisper in the silence of the canyon. Traveling in a caravan through desert lands, we honor Mother Earth as a living altar, carrying the prayers of the Guardians gathering into one of the most extraordinary ancestral landscapes on this continent. This is a day of magic, renewal, and gratitude — a fitting closing step on the White Path of our journey together.
