Before celebrating a spiritual wedding…

To start the marriage off on the right foot, it is customary for the couple to take a purifying bath a purifying bath (steam bath with medicinal plants) one day before the beginning of the spiritual marriage ceremony.

Once this is done, the two people will be ready to begin their adventure together.

Where can a spiritual wedding take place?

According to the ancestral traditions that consider the sacred and divine nature, it is common to hold such ceremonies in a magical environment. For example, in front of the sea or in an archaeological site full of history. The only thing that matters is that the chosen enclave is in the middle of nature.

Who officiates at such a ceremony?

Spiritual symbolic weddings -without legal validity- are officiated by a shaman or a priest who knows the ancestral culture, or Machi, who knows the strength of the energies and when and how it is preferable to carry out a ceremony so that the path of both people is filled with positivity and vitality.

At the same time, she is able to guide couples and their families to receive the blessings of the divinity and mother earth. Its main objective is to unite your energies with that of the earth, the cardinal points and the energy of the universe.

What does an ancestral wedding ceremony look like?

The ceremony begins by presenting the members of the couple to the seven directions: above resides the cosmic energy, Mother Earth rests below, around are the four winds (north, south, east and west) and the Higher Self is within their hearts.

For this, it is necessary an altar that is divided with flowers, candles or jícaras in four parts, so that seen from a zenithal plane it reflects the four cardinal points. And these, in turn, represent the four main elements of nature (fire, air, wind and water).

Thus, the sacred space is recreated, in which the energies converge and the elements are invoked by means of the chants and instruments: shells, flutes, rattles and drums. In this way, blessings are asked to the God and creator of everything together with the cosmic divine mother to bless this union.

Finally, the disposition of the offerings that the couple exchanges as vows takes place. Flowers, liquor, cigars, chocolate or raw materials such as gold, silver, or copper are the most recurrent to ask to the mother and the divinity to seal the marriage, blessing the love and the union.
