Mayan Daily Insights: One Day, One Insight

January 3, 2010 is 13 Caban, the Earth, in the Mayan Tzolkin Calendar. Collectively we have been here a very long time. How much do we own up to our long-term relationship with the world around us? Who are we in this relational space? Do we accept our wisdom, or express ourselves as children of the earth, or manage a combination of both?

Each day has its own story to tell, and today is no exception. What tale does today hold in its imagination as we await the arrival of what will come about?

In the Mayan Daily Insights, Friday, October 2, 2009 11 Kan (Seed, Lizard). Yesterday we had day 10, the day of completion in the House of Akbal. What does that mean? I see it as meaning that no matter now many others our projects involve, there is always a part of those [...]

Friday, July 24, 2009 is 6 Ix (Jaguar). Today’s message will not be lengthy, but great messages typically come in simple packages.
These next two days are rich with opportunity. Ix helps us rise to find that next step, giving us that amazing influx of unwavering support that says, “you have every [...]

In the Mayan Daily Insights, Friday, June 12, 2009 is 3 Eb (The Road). As with anything in life if we are to make progress we must have a direction. Must we know every detail of the journey before it begins? That is neither necessary nor desired. Each step always precedes [...]

In the Mayan Daily Insights, Tuesday, May 5, 2009 is 4 Ix, the Jaguar. Yesterday we spoke of the satiated step forward from the childhood stage, playfully staged for us by Chuen, and journeyed forward into the decisive realm of Ben. Today we carry that forward with Ix, who enlightens us with a [...]

In today’s Mayan Daily Insights, Monday, March 23, 2009 is 13 Chuen or Monkey. If you have been reading the last few days in the Mayan Daily Insights, you will know we have been talking about the concept of rebirth.
The great thing about being reborn is that you have the chance to have yet [...]

Friday, March 13, 2009, is 3 Imix (Alligator). It’s hard to top the energy of Ahau, the light, but Imix manages to do just that. This earthy tone cannot be beat when it comes to a rich array of potential experiences! When we combine the heartbeat of Ahau with the density of Imix [...]

Monday, February 16, 2009 is 4 Cib (Vulture). Today we bring together the completeness of the number glyph four with a feeling of discontent. Cib, the vulture, reminds us that we cannot stand still for very long. If we were intended to stay in one place we would be rocks. We [...]

Wednesday, September 10, 2008 is 1 Caban (Earth):  This first day of the cycle gives us a grounded start. I feel that this cycle will remind us to slow down and bring more awareness into the moment.  We begin with Caban, the earth, and end the cycle with Muluc, the water, giving us reflection.
This cycle [...]
