Despacho, Cacao & Stargate Ceremony: Building the Rainbow Bridge

In-person ceremony, arriving at 5 pm, we will have a despacho or haywariqui ceremony.

About the Gathering

As part of the Cherry Blossom Project - an exhibition exploring beauty, impermanence, and renewal - you are invited into a gentle, heart-led ceremonial space.

We gather beneath the spirit of the cherry blossom - a symbol of fleeting beauty, of tenderness, of the courage it takes to open fully to life.

• This is a space to slow down.
• To listen.
• To remember what is sacred within and around you.

Together, we enter into this ceremony - weaving prayer, presence, and connection.

The Ceremony

✧ Despacho: A Living Prayer (with Ali)
Rooted in the Andean tradition, the Despacho is a sacred offering — a weaving of intention, gratitude, and love.

In the spirit of Ayni (sacred reciprocity), we give back to the Earth, to the unseen, to the great web of life.

Together, we will co-create a Despacho to build a rainbow bridge —
an energetic pathway of connection, healing, and unity between worlds.

✧ Cacao: Opening the Heart (with Dandy)
You will be gently guided into connection with ceremonial cacao — a soft yet powerful plant ally.

Prepared with care using Dandy’s Raw Choc, this blend of cacao, carob, and lucuma invites warmth, openness, and presence.

A remembering of the heart.

✧ Stargate Meditation (with Dandy)
Rest into a deeply held meditative space, supported by the etheric Stargate —
a field of sacred geometry that opens pathways of awareness, connection, and subtle perception.

Allow yourself to soften…
to expand…
to be held.

You are invited to:
✧ Enter a sacred, heart-led space
✧ Reflect on what is blossoming within you
✧ Gently release what is ready to fall away
✧ Offer your prayers into the Despacho
✧ Connect with community, nature, and spirit

What to Bring
✧ A journal (optional)
✧ A water bottle
✧ A small burnable offering (a written prayer, intention, or something you are ready to release)
✧ A cushion, blanket, or yoga mat to sit on — so you can feel comfortable and supported in the space

The Despacho will be offered into the fire later that day, completing the prayer and returning it to the elements.
