It is explicitly mentioned that anyone can dance the Dance, as long as there
is a shaman to control the power. The GGD was a form of blood magic, with
people voluntarily giving up their life force to power the ritual. Mundanes
can do that as well as magicians.

I have a feeling that the blood magic in the GGD was a little more pure than
the Aztlan blood magic, due to the voluntary nature of the sacrifice. Still
caused the huge mana spike, though.
