Dotting The Eye Ceremony June 2011

Our dragons were awoken from their sleep today.

 

The ceremony is so that the dragons can watch over us and protect us.

 

Offerings of fruit and rice were made.
These offerings appease the spirits of the water and calm them in preparation for the paddling ahead.

Also offered was symbolic “Hell Money”, bank notes from the Bank of Hell. The smoke from these burned notes goes to Heaven and appeases the Gods to ensure safety and good paddling.

Paddlers watch as our dragons eyes are dotted.
