Mayan Daily Insights: One Day, One Insight

As I “tune into” the message of 2 Edznab, the Flint, I see the actual creation of a spark. It does take the coming together of two to make a spark, connecting in a fleeting moment with enough conflict between them to create that flash of light.

February 3, 2010 is 5 Lamat, the Star in the Mayan Tzolkin Calendar. Five is a very action-oriented number, luring us away from the comfort and safety of what we know toward our next step, but its all for a purpose.

This day is a pivotal day in many ways.  We have the turnaround point of the winter solstice, the shortest day of the year, the lowest point in the sky, and the beginning of the journey toward the next spring.  We also have the 13th day, again a pivotal point from which we can see [...]

Yesterday we spoke of perceptions, the internal perception of our experiences. This introspective quality is akin to the stars, the water, and the dream. When we translate these qualities into our day-to-day living, we see how important it is to know what we seek, but in making anything successful there are steps along [...]

Sunday, July 5, 2009 is 13 Men, the Eagle. In the Mayan Daily Insights we look at the relationship between the day tone and picture tone. On this day there is the magical number 13 and the eagle.
All good acts are founded on a belief or decision. What good [...]

Saturday, June 13, 2009 is 4 Ben (Reed). Yesterday we spoke of the road, that in order to make progress we must have direction. What affects us most in our forward movement? Is it truly a matter of what we need for that next step? “I haven’t enough” is the voice we [...]

In the Mayan Daily Insights, Tuesday, June 9, 2009 is 13 Muluc (Water). Today is the final day of a thirteen day cycle, ending in the fragrance of Muluc, the water. The acts and actions in our life have little meaning. What gives them value is our influence, the overtone of spiritual [...]
