It was 53 years ago when President Ferdinand E. Marcos Sr. signed Proclamation no. 1081, placing the entire Philippines under Martial Law.

It was on September 21, 1972 when Marcos signed a proclamation that will plunge the entire Philippines into the dark, where free media was surpressed, and thousands of human rights violations were committed. It was the start of a 14-year dictatorship which ended in 1986 when the people finally took back what was theirs in a bloodless revolution.

As vibrant, colorful pennants decorate the sky, together with loud festive music, and grand parades and exhibitions, Naga City's busy streets are packed with devotees. When all our five senses are stimulated, such as visual, tactile, olfactory, gustatory, and auditory. However, we do not feel the heat, our sweat dripping, and our body hurting, instead we feel the warmth.

This year, we celebrate the 315th years of devotion for our Inang Peñafrancia, from Translacion. It is more than an annual tradition, it is a testament.

Our Virgin of Peñafrancia is more than a patroness, she is the figure of miracle and healing.

Our devotion originated when Simón Vela, in 1434, in Spain. When he discovered the image of Our Lady of Peñafrancia and believed it was the reason of healings, and the rediscovery of the image was through divine revelation.

The devotion spread in Spain. Until Rev. Fr. Miguel Robles de Covarrubias introduced the devotion to Naga City, Philippines.

With Traslación, and Fluvial procession, Bicolanos, and devotees from all across the Nation, never stopped commemorating to pay homage for our Ina, during the Sunday after the Octave of the Nativity of the Blessed Virgin on September.

When the 9th month in the calendar strikes, traslacion awaits.

Traslación is a Spanish word, “Traslación”, which means "transfer/movement". It is one of the cultures in the Catholic religion.

The festival celebration focuses on honoring Mary, the Mother of Jesus, and the Patroness of Bicol.

This act is considered a religious procession in devotion and honor of Ina and occurs during the celebration of the Peñafrancia Festival, which takes place in September.

During traslacion, Christians gather around to walk with a revered image of Ina, which will be transferred from one place to another. In Christianity, this act serves as a return favor for Ina, for her favors and protection of the people.

This year's traslacion occurs on September 12, 2025, at Naga, Camarines Sur.
