REGISTRATION
The “MEZTLI TEPEYOLLOTL” MONDTANCE RITUAL 2024 takes place from 15.08. until 21.08. takes place.
We are happy that you hear the call of community, dancing, praying and supporting in the moonlight in the mountains of Switzerland.
“Meztli Tepeyollotl” means ‘moonlight in the heart of the mountains’. This name stands for the pure intention of our prayer to strengthen our inner light.
As we dance this prayer, we remember the ancient wisdom of inner peace so that we can live with more compassion, unity and love for all relationships on this earth. At the same time, we strengthen our resilience, get to know our triggers and connect with other women.
This ritual is organized by the association “Mondtanz Schweiz”.
This year, 2024, the 2nd complete Moon Dance Switzerland will take place under the direction of Melinda Nina Garcia / Xiuh Quetzal and the care of grandmother Ana Carmona Itzpapalotl (leader of the mother circle “Meztliyoliliztli” in Costa Rica).
To secure your place, please register using the form.

Who is welcome to dance?
Any woman who feels the call to pray in a circle under the full moon for connection, remambrance & peace inside out.
What are the requirements to dance?
All newcomers shall have a “madrina”, godmother, sister, who has already completed her commitment and danced 4 years.
I don't have enough funds to participate. Is it possible to receive a discount?
Basically, all shall be able to dance, regardless of their financial situation. We believe that this prayer, also involves a healthy relationship with money. There are myriad ways through friends & family or early consistent savings to collect the funds. That itself is a journey on it own.
Nevertheless, if you are a single mother, a family or an elder with meager funds, please write to us and we’ll find ways for you to participate.
I am pregnant, can I come and dance?
Yes, you are super welcome. Together we’ll see how to best take care of you and your needs.
Can I participate just for a few days?
No. This ritual consists of a well-built container of 7 days, including one day tuning in and 1 day integration, supporting the process & the flow.
Can friends & family come to visit and watch?
This year for the first time, it is possible to wittness the sacred ceremony during the 4th. night on August 19.
A special invitation process will be communicated through the participants.
Do I have to commit myself for 4 years when signing up for the Moondance?
No, you do not have to.
This ritual is a path that goes above all through the heart. You may not be sure yet if you are ready to participate in the ritual.
The first year can help you to discover the ritual and to feel if you have a desire to continue on this path of life. Above all, it is a conscious decision that comes from the heart and not from the mind or an obligation.
You also have the option of first registering as a helper in order to discover the ritual and better feel whether this path resonates with you.
From the moment you decide to receive and carry a prayer pipe, you agree to dance in this circle for at least four years. The four years stand for the four elements and a cycle. It is recommended to experience this cycle throughout life. This can mean 4 consecutive years or at your own pace.
I don't have a "Madrina" / big sister. Can I still register?
Yes, of course, if you feel the call, by all means. Then we recommend you to come to the singing circles, Info ZOOM calls or other Moondance events to get to know the circle and experienced dancers.
Can my underage daughter dance?
If your daughter feels the call, we recommend that she joins the support team with your partner or grandparents. In this way she gets to know the space and can register for the coming year if she still wants to. In this way, your daughter returns to a familiar space and can orientate herself more easily.
Basically, we recommend for the first years that you as a woman take the 7 days to be completely for yourself in your process. So you come back to your family inspired and strengthened, instead of continuing to take care of your family during the dance and thus being more on the outside than the inside. Experience has shown that it is a great gift for the men to spend these days in the field with the child/children.
Where do we stay?
We all camp in our own tents.
IF NOT US, THEN WHO?
IF NOT NOW, THEN WHEN?
