Fire Ceremony at the United Festival will be conducted by fire ceremony masters Kristina Paškevicius and Ivar Virkus
Fire is the sun, warmth, heart, life. The flame always flows up, helps us to be strong, awake. Fire connects us with the invisible, gives us strength and warmth. Fire is a changer. On this day in July, we honor fire, build and decorate a campfire together, celebrate life, dance, sing, beat the drum. We awaken our primal nature and power, pray for good fortune, health and abundance for ourselves and our loved ones. Fire amplifies prayers.
On this occasion, we consecrate the fire through the ancient ritual of the Inca-Quero tribe. During the ritual, we chant the following spell:
NITCHY TAI TAI
ENN JUU WAY
ORO NIKA
ORO NIKA
HEY YA
HEY YA
OO YA,
which we learn in advance. This is a Water spell to balance the Fire element.
It is a celebration of connection, of me and of you.
