Embracing the Importance of Cocoa

World Chocolate Day, celebrated annually on July 7, is a perfect occasion to indulge in chocolate’s rich and velvety finishes. But rather than simply enjoying delicious treats, let’s dive deeper into its origins and honor the Mayan civilization’s sacred relationship with cocoa through a captivating cocoa ritual.

The Mayan Cocoa Ritual

The Mayans held cocoa in the highest regard, considering it a sacred gift from the gods. Their belief in the divine qualities of cocoa led to the development of intricate rituals celebrating its significance and power. Let us briefly explain how a good cocoa ceremony is performed:

• Find the Intention: Participants must set their intentions for the ceremony, focusing on gratitude, connection, and a deeper appreciation for the natural world.

• Blessing and Offering: It’s essential to embrace the Mayan tradition of offering cocoa to the gods. This can be symbolized by a ceremonial pouring of hot chocolate into a communal vessel, accompanied by prayers or blessings. Such an important act of reverence cultivates a sense of unity and respect for the sacredness of cocoa.

• Sensory Awakening: By incorporating different sensory experiences, all the senses are engaged. Participants touch and smell fresh cocoa beans, and experience as well the raw essence of this cherished ingredient.

• Guided Meditations: Participants are guided through a meditation designed to deepen their connection with cocoa and ancient deities. The ceremony’s master must encourage them to visualize the journey of cocoa, from the cacao tree to the final product.

• Art and Music: Expect shamanic music playing in the background. These sounds will enhance the experience, creating a bond between the people involved and the cultural heritage of Tulum.

• Chocolate-based Delicacies: Of course, it wouldn’t be World Chocolate Day without treating ourselves to a variety of chocolate-based treats. Enjoy a nice hot chocolate filled with tranquility, gratitude, connection, and peace.
