Tomorrow, 8000 Sacred Drums! - an update from the Otomi elders...

dearest ayllu...

as we near the sacred day for tomorrow's global ceremony, the elders have posted this update at their site....

...Very Important

1. Our drum ceremony will take place between 10 a.m. and 12 noon, Mexico City time (CST); you may synchronize with us by drumming at that time.

2. There has been some confusion about when to begin drumming from other locations. Here at the Otomi ceremonial site in Temoaya, Mexico, the Ceremony of 8,000 Drums will be from dawn to dusk on the 21st, beginning with a morning ceremony at dawn. Our original intent was to have as many people as possible drumming and praying in at the exact same time. We will be drumming from 10 am to 12 noon, Mexico City time (CST).

We hope those of you in nearby time zones will be able to synchronize your ceremonies with ours. However, we realize that this may not be possible for everyone, in that case please offer your drumming, songs and prayers at any time; people from all over the world will be participating at different times, you will be in synch with others somewhere!
