Soul Journey with Cacao & the Ancestors
AWKN RANCH in Austin, Texas
Maggie Battista will guide you through a Cacao ceremony to receive vital messages from your Soul and the ancestors. The ceremony will awaken your Soul’s voice and activate the love force energy that flows through you to attract all that is meant for you in this lifetime.
The peaceful and refreshing ceremony will include storytelling and a multidimensional visualization journey during which you connect with your Soul and your lineage or passed loved ones.
Maggie will prepare Ceremonial Cacao, with intention, infusing it with love and activation energy. You will drink a ceremonial dosage of this potent heart-opening plant medicine that connects you with the heart of the earth. Cacao tastes like the richest chocolate you've ever had and has been cultivated by the Mayans for centuries.
If you are a creative, entrepreneur, or healer, this ceremony may be potent for you as the energy supports the emergence of a great shift within you and your offerings.
This ceremony will be on the day 1 Iq’ in the Mayan Sacred Calendar. The energy of Iq’ is that of the divine breath and the winds of change. Iq’ is known as the great communicator and empowers you to use your voice to express. The sacred number 1 represents new beginnings or birth. On this day, you will be asked to voice the shift or evolution wishing to emerge through you.
Dress comfortably. Bring a journal and writing instrument PLUS a yoga mat, cushion, blanket, eye mask, or meditation pillow to ensure you are comfortable on the floor for a few hours. You are also welcome to bring an object or two for the altar that will be designed to honor our journey.
Ceremonial Cacao stimulates the central nervous system, relaxes smooth muscles, and dilates blood vessels, sending more oxygen throughout the body and toward the heart. It fosters love and compassion in the body.
It is used daily to awaken life and love force energy, and taken in larger dosages, it offers an awakening similar to other plant medicines, but with a gentler experience. Cacao has some psychoactive effects but it is not a psychedelic. It helps you tap into the subtle dimensions.

“My journeys with Ceremonial Cacao are not like other ceremonies. In Mayan traditions, they actually do not hold ceremonies with Cacao.
Instead, they make kotzij' (rituals) to offer reverence, intention, and gratitude to the heart of the earth (Cacao) and energies that create and support our reality, paving a path for our spiritual evolution.
My ancestors called me to Cacao and offered me a program that fosters an inner journey to retrieve parts of your Soul and reconcile or make peace within your ancestral lines.
In a Soul Journey, you will witness the rising of your own Soul’s wisdom so you may embody it, ignite your love force energy, and attract all that is meant for you in this lifetime.”

“Sitting in Cacao circle with Maggie and others felt safe and magical. I felt more connected to myself and the other souls present. Maggie’s words of wisdom and storytelling gave me permission to provide grace and compassion towards my own soul’s voice and welcome in the depth of my own being.”

Hi, I’m Maggie Battista and I am a bridge.
I’m an entrepreneur and award-winning author who heard my Soul and ancestors speak through profound personal loss and intuitive activation.
As a storyteller, teacher, and ritualist, I now bridges dimensions and will never again forget that I’m a soul having a human experience.
Over 10 years, I designed a practice to dialogue, heal, and emerge with the Soul’s voice, the calm, all-knowing wisdom that surfaces from within when you get quiet and listen. Consider it the language of love buried deep within.
I offer a blend of guidance on how to remember your wholeness; how to hold the pain of the earthly alongside the potential of all dimensions; how to infuse soul into business; and how to let in all the love.
I help you awaken to the power of your Soul so you can invite in love, peace, wholeness, meaning, soul family, and do new things with trust.
“I truly can’t believe how much has shifted for me since the Cacao Ceremony. It’s unbelievable how Cacao and my grandmother came to me at the right time to tell me to be ready for these shifts. I was blown away!”
