Not only were keen observers and
astute recorders of salient celestial events and the cyclical motion of
heavenly bodies, their most vital ceremonial practices are
calenderically aligned to the will of such “star-relatives.” Millennial
shamanic cultures also intuitively understood that any ritual being
properly enacted at a venerated sacred site on earth, were also being
simultaneously performed in the Spirit World. A constant ceremonial
mirroring of what is Above by what is Below was acknowledged as
essential to the sustainable continuation and evolution of human life on
Earth. The celestial canopy informs the centers of terrestrial power with the habits of heaven! Solstices, heliacal settings and risings, the precession of the equinoxes, the predictable sojourn of sun, moon, planets, stars and constellations across the heavens are manifest upon the earthy landscape in the form of pilgrimage routes, oracular destinations, megalithic temple sites, pyramids, effigy mounds, and places of spiritual power still revered and in use today. Hence your willingness to join this pilgrimage of ceremonial service to the restoration of other worldly bridges of communication and right relationships shall set the template for future generations to once again take their guidance form the stars. The return of SIPAPU is at our doorstep!
