Greetings Kin,

Don Alejandro is a 13 generation shaman and Spiritual Leader to all the people in the Maya lands. He has been the leading authority through which Ian Lungold confirmed the dates of the Tzolk’in for us.

I received the following message from Michael Shore regard Don Alejandro’s failing health. “Tata” is an endearment equal to Papa or Grandpapa, as he was mentioned in the message. Joseph, who sent the message has been close to Don Alejandro for many years. May we offer our prayers for Tata and send our Light to him in Guatemala.

Joseph’s email is included with the message for anyone who would like to contact him for a donation for the provision of care.

Much love, in lak’ech, Debra

Update on Tata Alejandro (aka Don Alejandro, Wondering Wolf).

Just spoke with his grandson, Jeronimo, who has been his primary caretaker and managing his affairs. Tata is bed-ridden, and on a respirator. His condition worsened this past December when his son-in-law (Jeronimo’s father) passed way, leading to Tata becoming very depressed and worsening his respiratory condition. He is stable now but still on a respirator, and does not want to go back to the hospital. He’s being visited by a doctor twice a week for now and needs medicine. He is 90 years old and needs our help.

So, as before, anyone who feels moved to contribute to Tata’s health and care now, please reply to me and I’ll share how we are collecting money to send to his grandson in Guatemala for Tata’s care. Thank you.
