The serpent stirs.

Will you answer the call?

Join us for 20 days of remembrance, re-awakening, and transformation as we return to the natural cycles of time and the serpentine wisdom of Nahual Kan. We walk in accordance with the Mayan Cholq'ij count of time as observed in the highlands of Guatemaya and the medicine of I'xCacao.

Samantha of Hands of Mercury and Sasha of Soma Kan Cacao are honoured to invite you to journey with us through this potent moment in time to shed what no longer serves, to connect greater to your own life force, and to rise fully in your own power and potential. We are guided by the ancient wisdom of the Mayan cosmovision, the natural cycles of time and the medicine of I'xCacao to assist and safekeep this process of transformation.

This is not an online course. This is an initiation into the depths of your mind, body and soul. We will walk and weave with each of you for 20 days of deep transmutation and alignment with ancestral wisdom.

On May 7th, we initiate a trecena in the ceremonial Cholq’ij count of time.

The cycle of Kan, the sacred serpent. Quetzalcoatl. Q'uq'umatz.

THIS IS FOR YOU IF YOU HAVE BEEN...

Desiring a space to deepen into earth based wisdom, ancient codes, and to come back into harmony with the natural cycles of time...

THE ARC OF THE JOURNEY

Within this journey, we move through a powerful arc: from Jun (1) Kan, the spark of transformation, through Jun (1) Tijax - the blade of healing that cuts and purifies, finally arriving at Wajxaqi (8) Kan where the cycle completes and the energy ripens into embodied strength, alchemy and integration.

We begin with the stirring of the serpent. The initial initiation of potential, instinct and inner knowing. As the days unfold, this energy builds, revealing what is ready to grow, but also what must be shed. With the arrival of Tijax, we meet the sacred blade. This is the energy of discernment, healing, and precise clearing. Here, illusion is cut away, and truth becomes undeniable.

As we continue the journey, we return to Kan on tone 8 | A number of harmony, balance, and right relationship.

What was once just a spark has now been refined through transformation. The life force within is no longer dormant or unintegrated. the channels are clear, the skin is shed.

This is the path of awakening, clearing, and becoming. A path where the serpent rises, the blade refines, and the body learns to hold and transmit its own light.

TESTIMONIALS

“I loved meeting with Samantha daily for a period of time synchronized with the Cholq'ij. I loved her prayers, seeing kin and feeling presence. I loved her shares and music selection. These meetings were such a powerful and nourishing way to ease into the energetics of the day, community, education, attunement, and prayer. Thank you Samantha for being a conduit for the medicine of your embodied Maya wisdom." - Kenneth

"Having worked with and been in Ceremony with Sasha of Soma Kan Cacao for a few years, I can say that She is a gifted embodiment of spirit and connection through the Mayan Cosmovision. Her deep deep knowledge has been cultivated within the Mayan Community. Her being vibrates at the frequency of devotion. Devotion to Cacao's medicine as a plant ally and the daily living experience of the ancient Cosmovision. Sasha is a spiritual leader whose mission is to serve and hold space as you rise!" - TV

"I've had the honour to share the Spring Equinox of Rebirth with Sasha and Samantha! Such a wonderful coupling of feminine divine energies. Each strong and unique. Weaving together seemlessly. Complementing their styles and energies for a potent blend of love and depth.

Through prayer, song, drum, mind, and heart, Sasha and Samantha will take you with them to the oasis of beauty, calm reverence for all living things. Where you can attune and be activated for good work in the world. A vessel for bridging divides as well as adding to the Collective upliftment for life in all its forms. A MUCH needed alignment for our times." - Tia

COMMON QUESTIONS

Q: Do I need any prior knowledge of Mayan cosmology or cacao ceremonies to join?

A: Not at all. This journey is designed to meet you exactly where you are. The guidebook, daily transmissions, and support from Samantha and Sasha will walk you through everything you need to know. Curiosity and openness are the only prerequisites. For those looking to deepen their established connection with cacao, we offer dieta guidelines to commune more intimately with this plant teacher.

Q: Is this an online course I can do at my own pace?

A: This is not a course. It's a live and recorded guided cacao immersion and dieta for those who want to participate in that manner. The daily shares and recordings will be sent out each morning to be watched and completed on your own time. The live weekend calls for group shares and real-time WhatsApp community create a shared, held experience that unfolds in sacred time alongside your cohort. Opening day, closing day, and each Saturday and Sunday of our time together will be live calls that we encourage you to attend.

Q: What is the time commitment each day? What time are the live calls?

A: The daily shares are designed to be integrated into your life, not to overwhelm it. Weekday videos will be 10 minutes long with invitational practices for the day that will take anywhere from 15-45 minutes to complete depending on your available time. Weekend community shares will be 45 minutes, and the weekend guided journeys/workshops will be 1 hour that begin around 9am PST. Opening and closing day guided by Tata Walter will be closer to 2 hours. Think of it as a daily devotional practice more than a class schedule.

Q: What's the difference between Signature and Standard?

A: Both receive the full 21-day experience. The Signature tier also includes a 1-year Cholq'ij Calendar and a customized meditation and journal exercise set tailored specifically to your unique Nahual (day sign). You’ll be able to connect deeply not only to the cosmovision but to your unique nahual with your count in hand to continue your practice this year. If you want a more personalized journey, Signature is your best path.

Q: Who is Tata Walter?

A: Tata Walter Quiacain is a Mayan Aj'q'ij, a traditional Mayan spiritual guide and wisdom keeper. An Aj'q'ij has been given the authority to be a day keeper and to work with the fire in accordance with the lineage and fire ceremony through initiation and training with elders. His presence at the opening and closing ceremonies grounds our entire journey in the tradition rather than just conceptual teaching.

Q: Is cacao required? What if I can't source it?

A: Cacao is a beautiful and necessary companion for this journey, and guidance on sourcing will be shared. We have multiple sources in the US, Canada, and International. We can help you with shipping logistics and recommendations if needed. Q: Will there be recordings if I miss a live call?

Q: $290 -$350 feels like a lot right now. Why should I invest in this?

A: We understand that where you choose to invest your money and time is an important choice. With that in mind, we have created tiers and discounts to make this as accessible as possible while still being able to give back a portion of proceeds to the community of Tata Walter. Consider what you're receiving: 21 days of daily curated support from both Sasha and Samantha, live calls across three weekends, a comprehensive guidebook, workshops, a breathwork journey, a private community, and a traditional fire ceremony with Tata Walter - a rare opportunity in the online space. Split payments are available, and if you bring a friend you both drop down to $250.
