An Aztec altar is a ceremonial structure with deep cultural and spiritual significance in Aztec tradition. Typically constructed during religious rituals or ceremonies, the altar serves as a sacred space to honor deities, ancestors, and natural forces. Adorned with symbolic elements such as candles, incense, flowers, and ritual objects, the altar represents a connection between the earthly realm and the divine. It is a focal point for offerings, prayers, and rituals, signifying a profound reverence for spiritual forces and the interconnectedness of life in Aztec belief. The construction and decoration of an Aztec altar hold rich symbolism, reflecting a deep respect for the spiritual dimensions of their cosmology.
In the Azteca Altar area, we invite you to connect with your loved ones who have transitioned to another realm. Light a candle as a symbolic gesture, sending forth your love and best wishes to honour their journey into a new level of existence. Candles will be available for you in this area during the 3-day event.
