Tonanztin Tlalli Coatlicue, (Nahuatl) to Mother Earth, La Virgen Morena -- the Dark Virgin, Coatlaxopeuh, Our Lady of Guadalupe, every 12th of December.
The fragrance of copal incense with its ribbons of prayerful smoke rising through the air triggers ancestral memories. The sound of the conch and the rhythm of the huehuetl (the drum), call me to join the dancers whose energetic dance steps cause the coyolli (the ankle seed pod rattles), to jingle like falling rain on hard packed earth. Hundreds of dancers fill the avenue, mingling with other Indigenous Mexicans: Mexika, Yaqui Matachines, Tarahumaras, Cucapa, Kumiai, and Paipai. Many travels from far away to make their offering to Virgen Morena .

The town of Catemaco is a pretty place on the shore of Laguna Catemaco in the state of Veracruz. It's considered the center of Mexico’s witchcraft and witch-doctor industry. Witchcraft traditions in this part of Mexico go back centuries, mixing ancient indigenous beliefs, Spanish medieval traditions and voodoo practices from West Africa, and in 1970 a local brujo (shaman) had the grand idea to host a witchcraft convention. The idea stuck and every year now hundreds of shamans, witches and healers from all over Mexico descend on Catemaco to perform a mass cleansing ceremony designed to rid them of the previous years’ negative energies.
