I, Ac Tah, a descendant of the Mayab people from eastern Yucatan, trace my lineage to TAH CANCHE Baak and AC. My grandparents and Baak Huchin Bee Hat taught me that every 5125 years, Earth and other planets align perfectly. This alignment, occurring now, signifies a historical time for humanity to evolve into beings of light, fostering a new consciousness of harmony and balance.

I am currently touring the country, promoting awareness of this awakening and the return of the Maya, as foretold by my ancestors.
