Semana Santa, or Easter's Holy Week in Antigua, Guatemala 2010 sees some of the most elaborate sawdust carpets in the world - made out of fruit, flowers, and more, these carpets are incredibly unique. I blog about traditional festivals from all over the world on my travel blog: alittleadrift.com --- and Antigua's Holy Week is one of those events that will stick with me for my entire life because of the skill, devotion, and sincerity of the entire week of celebratons. The alfombras are probably the most well known aspect of the event because they are elaborately detailed and can get incredibly ornate too even though they are all made of sawdust, flowers, palm fronds, and in one case one of the carpets was even made out of chocolate! Neighbors and sometimes a whole street will team up nearly a year ahead of time to plan out the next year's event and carpet. These carpets can span 500 feet or more, right in the middle of the road, and take upwards of 15 hours for the more elaborate carpets you'll see during Holy Week. Stencils are used and laid on top of the sawdust to outline the delicate designs, and layers of sawdust and images chosen to celebrate Christ and his sacrifice. The last thing you see of a carpet are the feet of the people in the parades slowly scuttling through the soft sawdust, instantly destroying these ephemeral works of art. As they are trampled and the parade moves on to the next street, the cleaners follow up behind and huge trucks dispose of the sawdust ...

La antigua religion mitraica o zoroastrianismo (que aun hoy cuenta con seguidores en Iran, India y otros lugares, en la forma llamada Mazdeismo) y el culto a Isis fueron dos religiones que hicieron dura competencia al naciente cristianismo, y ambas dejaron sentir su influencia en tradiciones que se han perpetuado hasta hoy, como la celebracion de la Navidad el 25 de diciembre con el intercambio de regalos y etc, y la veneracion de imagenes de la Virgen Maria con el Niño Jesus en brazos, junto a los titulos que le da la Iglesia Catolica como "Reina de los Cielos", etc.

Algunos de los seguidores de Juan Bautista no creyeron en Jesus, se trasladaron al actual Irak y formaron la comunidad mandeana o sabea, que con el pasar de los siglos y la invasion y persecusiones islamicas fue disminuyendo en numero, creen en Juan Bautista como la ultima encarnacion de su dios y su culto combina influencias de la antigua religion babilonica con practicas y creencias judeocristianas como el bautismo.

Secuencia de la pelicula "Las brumas de Avalon". Beltane es la festividad de la fertilidad que celebran los paganos. Representa la unión del sol (el Dios) que se encuentra en plena madurez en esas fechas, con la tierra (la Diosa) cuyo resultado serán los frutos que se obtengan al finalizar el verano con la recogida de la cosecha.

Religion is very much a part of life here in Guatemala. Ancient churches...functional and ruins...are everywhere. There's a mixture of Catholic tradition with the old religion of the Maya. It is perfectly normal to see statues of saints alongside likenesses of less-saintly Mayan deities (my favorite is Maximon, to whom they offer cigars and alcohol. He looks a bit like Hemingway). I noticed that something was up this week when I noticed people walking around town with the sign of the cross on their foreheads. It was Ash Wednesday! I don't know much about this tradition other than it means that Easter is around the corner. When I lived in Philadelphia, many of my Catholic coworkers would get up early in the morning for Mass. They'd get the mark on their foreheads and wear it all day. It was all that I could do to keep from licking my thumbs and rubbing the smudge marks off their faces! At least the people here in Antigua have the good sense to get the ash-head marks after work! Anyway, Miguel and I went shopping in the morning for new chairs. We enjoy sitting on the roof of our Guatehouse and watch the world go by. The chairs that Kimberly relocated from the courtyard were weathered, and both of them were split. Getting a bit of arm fat pinched between the broken arms of a plastic chair is quite painful! Time for new chairs! Miguel bought a blue one, and mine is green. We had to carry them from one end of Antigua to the other! I wanted to get a taxi to haul the chairs, but ...

"En este video usted podrá apreciar fotos del Campo Misionero de la República Dominicana. La Iglesia Pentecostal La Senda Antigua llegó a este país caribeño en el mes de Junio del 2001. Actualmente las iglesias están creciendo y algunas de ellas están en lugares pobres donde hemos podido alcanzar a la comunidad haitiana residente en ese país. Muchas de estas fotos impactaron mi vida grandemente ya que fue mi primer Campo Misionero y fue precisamente ahí donde mi visión misionera fue ampliada." www.lasendaantigua.com

The Semana Santta parades in Antigua for Holy Week celebrations and processional reenactments are some of the most unique and amazing Easter activities in the world. The Processions reenact the last days of Christ and last for the whole of Semana Santa. The Holy Week in Christianity takes place the last week of lent and the week leading up to Easter. The celebrations in some parts of the world really take the week seriously and reenact the last days of Christ for the entire week leading up to Easter. For this to happen it means that locals sign up a year in advance to play a part in the elaborate reenactments and they act out all of the parts and roles that led to Christ being accused and crucified. The Roman soldiers come out and make accusations at midnight one of the nights, and throughout the week, as Good Friday, and Palm Sunday come and pass, the floats with Christ's image get more and more distressing. Each day the float depicts Christ and those surrounding the event on heavy (weighing a tonne in some cases) floats and in one of the stages before he was resurrected. Easter day is the day of joy and the parades are a lot more light-hearted with happy music a stark contrast to the sad and dreary tones as everyone was in mourning, incense and deep-throated songs set a somber mood for most of the days of the procession. As the processions spend hours winding through the streets of Antigua and other cities in the world, there are elborate alfombras, or carpets, lining ...
