The
Ancient Chamori Royal Wedding
(Royal Wedding Photo 013)
"The Royal Proa Ritual"
The Maga'saina signals the royal couple to stand. He
orders them to go forth and seed their love. The Palåo'an and the Låhi now face the
crowd and wave. The Låhi carries the Palåo'an to the Royal Proa and they sail off
into the sunset.
The ancient people of Guahan or
Taotaomo'nas believed in the sacred and heavenly union between a woman and a man. They
called the Ancient Chamori Royal Wedding Ceremony "Hacha'gua", which means to be
ONE or to become ONE.
As one of the only surviving matriarchal societies in the world, the Taotao Tano' of
Guahan capture the true meaning and symbolism of ancient class royalty and womanhood in
the perpetuation of their unique wedding system..."Hacha'gua"
