About Mayan Cosmology


The Mayan Cosmovision is an extensive and ancient 'way of seeing the cosmos'. Mayan priests and ceremonialists gained profound wisdom and connection with the universal model of creation by engaging in astral out-of-body journeys and serious ritual practice. On some very important events taking place on significant dates in their ceremonial calendar, they would drink Cacao to engage in more intense journeys or offer more potent prayers to Spirit in all its forms. Over hundreds of years, they extracted an intricate model of time-keeping which includes 20 different calendar counts. They managed to 'see' how the cosmos works in its constant evolution, and how its evolution cycles rhythmically.


Mayan priests also understood that all of creation is interdependent. You can think of the butterfly effect; every single action, even of the tiniest part of creation, has an effect on the whole organism of creation. They understood that they are a fractal part of creation, just like everything else. In a similar fashion, all the 20 calendars/cosmic cycles are interdependent. They are all in tune with the greater rhythm of the cosmos. This means that, by attuning ourselves to the rhythm of the shorter cycles, we can become attuned to the larger cycles of evolution and journey in harmony with all existence. The Cholq'ij (or Tzolkin in Mayan areas of Mexico) is called the ceremonial cycle. Mayan spiritual practice involves 'counting the days' which basically means attuning ourselves to the sensitivity of this cycle of the 13 Codes (numbers) and 20 Nawales (Sun signs).


From the ceremonial calendar or Cholq'ij, your Mayan astrological chart is calculated, and people attuned to the calendar count can extract a fair amount of information that can be helpful to your evolution, and support your daily life path as a human being.

One Spirit offers one-on-one Mayan astrology sessions and Mayan Cosmovision Courses online. Allow yourself to attune to the cycles of Earth and Cosmos by connecting to the ancient Mayan cosmological templates and intelligence, as taught by local elder Francisco Puac. Don Francisco - community and educational leader at Lake Atitilan - lives and teaches the spiritual tradition of the Guatemalan Western Highlands and is a Mayan Ajq'ij (daykeeper).


Over a span of four years, Shadi Henau, founder of One Spirit, has been studying, traveling, and guiding ceremonial journeys with Francisco. Shadi assists and guides Mayan fire rituals as per the permission he received from living and spirit elders at the Atitlan lake. Shadi has had the honor of engaging in fire rituals at many Mayan sacred sites in Guatemala, and integrating the energies and information available at these portals. He guides sessions and courses from his embodied wisdom gained from countless rich experiences of connection with the Mayan lands and its people.

About Us


Shadi Henau


Shadi grew up in Belgium and has been living in Guatemala, in deep connection with the land, for about 8 years. They traveled nomadically all over Latin America for many years, soaking in deeply the land-based cultures of this planet while reclaiming their own body's wisdom and ways. Shadi spent quite some time in India during which they trained to be a Yoga teacher and Reiki master. They traveled to numerous sacred sites all over Europe and the Americas, in reverence of the ancient knowing they offer, and started hosting ceremonial travels for groups back in 2018.


Shadi identifies as gender fluid, pansexual and ecosexual, and feels most at home in nature. They love expressing themselves through devotional singing, dancing, in service at rituals, and while guiding groups with the ancestral Mayan Cacao medicine, in which they have been initiated by local wisdom keepers.


Shadi has been studying Mayan cosmology with wisdom keeper Francisco Puac for about 5 years, and has sat in countless Mayan fire rituals at the ceremonial sites of Guatemala, nourishing a deep connection to the land and its wisdom. They have journeyed extensively in Cacao ritual with Cacao shaman Keith Wilson at Lake Atitlan since 2014, and continue to share the powerful Cacao medicine in their own unique way.


Shadi organizes and assists ISTA (International School of Temple Arts) trainings in Guatemala, Mexico and Belgium.

"In an intense shamanic transmission, Shadi brought me in deep connection with my inner wisdom and soul. I experienced a resonance that I have never felt so strongly in my body, which made my body move during his transmission. I was so impressed by how Shadi channels the energy of the Maya and how he embodies it. I felt it deep in my body, in my heart, in my womb. Receiving this energy has given me a deep sense of gratitude for the past few days; a strong happy flow of juiciness. I feel so blessed for the path that is mine to explore, and so grateful to feel that I am already so deeply connected with my gifts."
