The Voice of the Ancestors ~ A Transmission from Elder Iya Tahirah + October New Moon

New Moon ceremony, Tuesday, October 21st, 7:30 am Hawaii time

Aloha Kākou,

As we prepare to gather under the October New Moon, we're still carrying a transmission from last month's Equinox—one that keeps finding its way back to us.

Elder Iya Tahirah spoke from the shores of St. Croix, the very place where worlds collided, where a gateway opened. And her words landed like a prayer being answered:

"When the hearts and minds can join together… we remember the ancestral code from all the Indigenous prophecies. This is what we are called to remember and give birth to."

Elder Iya Tahirah

She reminded us:
We’re not here to do something new.
We’re here to be what we already are.

The original instruction still lives within us.
Waiting for stillness. For silence. For resonance.

"I am the peace that I call for. I am the balance that I call for. I am the ocean. I am the wind. I am the mountain. I am the universe—because the universe lives in and through me."

Elder Iya Tahirah

For three days before that gathering, thunder roared from the ocean. She heard it not just as sound, but as a call—a directive from Oya, the Mother of Storms: listen deeper.

Ancestral Wisdom Collective

A Lunar Practice Guided by Aunty Puna & Mamo Lorenzo

The ancestors are calling—through the waves, the wind, the ground beneath our feet. Calling us to return. To remember. To practice.

For the past year, Kaiāulu’s Ancestral Wisdom Collective has been a living field of lunar rhythm and remembrance, guided by Kumu Hula Puna Kalama Dawson (Hawaiʻi) and Mamo Lorenzo Izquierdo Arroyo (Arhuaco).

Each month includes:

  • 🌑 New Moon Ceremonies with Indigenous elders (open to all)

  • 🌕 Full Moon Self-Healing with Mamo (members only)

  • 🌓 Last Quarter Moon Hawaiian Wisdom Teachings with Puna (members only)

  • 🌗 First Quarter Moon Cultivating Coherence with Patricia, Poe, Prajna & Olivia (members only)

Four lunar phases. One mandala of remembering, embodiment, and collective attunement.

Every month, as we gather across continents and time zones, something shifts.

The isolated becomes interconnected.
The scattered finds its center.
The forgotten remembers itself.

Your presence—exactly as you are—contributes to this field of coherence.

In the Name of Aloha Gathering—keiki practicing as the sun sets, keeping the heartbeat alive. Kauaʻi, August 27, 2025.

Our Shared Impact

Every time we gather, our circle strengthens the preservation of ancestral wisdom, supports the protection of sacred territories, and creates bridges of understanding between traditions.

Your presence matters.

Let us return to the breath of our becoming.

E hoʻi i ka hanu. Return to the breath.

Warm aloha,
Your Kaiāulu ʻOhana
