WAYEB: Mayan New Year
February 13th -18th, 2025
Lake Atitlan, Guatemala
A "Time Out of Time"
Lake Atitlan, Guatemala
A "Time Out of Time"
In the Mayan tradition, Wayeb is a sacred five-day period marking the transition between the old and new Mayan solar year. Unlike the rest of the calendar, these days are seen as a liminal, in-between time—an opportunity to pause, reflect, and reconnect with the natural world and one’s inner self. It is a time to honor ancestors, engage in rituals of purification, and set intentions for the year ahead.
Join me as I travel to Lake Atitlan this February to honor the sacred Mayan tradition of Wayeb with Mayan elder of the Tzutujil tradition, Nana Mimi Navichoc.
This retreat will weave the energy of the Jaguar with the sacred energies of the Nahuales, the guardians of the mountains. We will visit 5 Mayan Sacred Altars where we will learn to invoke the energies of the mountains, to prepare sacred offerings for the fire and connect with the Nahuales.
A Mayan ceremony is an offering to life, to Mother Earth, and to the animals. During this retreat we will celebrate the Mayan Wayeb "time out of time" and the Mayan New Year.
Through ancient ceremonies and cultural immersions, you’ll reconnect with the rhythms of the Mother Earth. You will also learn about the local Tz'utujil culture, traditions, and gastronomy.
Limited spaces are available for this unique retreat—reserve your spot today and align yourself with the wisdom of the ages.
