Starting March 12, cardinals perform a 700-year-old tradition that is bound by secrecy. The conclave will elect the 265th successor of St Peter, believed to be the leader of Jesus’ first apostles. From their lodging at the Domus Sanctae Marthae, the 115 cardinal electors – including Manila Archbishop Luis Antonio Tagle – move to the Pauline Chapel in the Vatican’s Apostolic Palace on Tuesday, March 12, at 3:45 pm (10:45 pm in Manila). Rappler shows the conclave’s elaborate rituals that involve a solemn procession, a secret ballot, the threat of excommunication, and of course, the iconic white smoke.
