7 Flint / ETZNAB
Greetings Beloved Kin,
Peak Tone 7 raises the Intention of Reflection. Tone 7 is the top of the pyramid of Human’s climb to see “all that is” and “all that is not.” Number 7 is a symbol of Human’s power to create our own reality. Everything that is created by Humanity was once a Light shared through the faculty of our Imagination. We imagine an end to reason an order and the first thing to do.
White Day signs represent cycles of “darkness,” an Unknown Truth revealed by the Wisdom of our own Experience. The Question is the first step to an Answer. We don’t see the Truth without a Question.
Flint/ETZNAB answers a Question we didn’t know to Ask, revealing Truth that was hidden or covered up. “Mirror” is another Name for ETZNAB. The Truth is written in a Reflection of our Face. Our Intention from the beginning is to climb beyond the failures and limitations of yesterday. Flint/ETZNAB presents the Truth that will sweep our way clear to the future.
The glyph illustrates a top-down view of the pyramid from the point at which we’ve gathered the Truth of our own experience. Beyond what we “think we know” is the Truth Witnessed from Above. A Divine Father shares the Truth exactly when we need to know.
We’re Inspired to weigh the Truth in the balance of “all that is” and “all that is not” what we conceive the Truth to be. Human Discernment is based on what we expected to be the Truth – by our Illusion of Reality. When we don’t have the Sense to ask the Right Question, the One Above can send the Truth that cuts straight to the heart of a matter. Flint’s Truth can cut to the bone, but it’s a Divine Surgery, and Truth we’re SO glad to know.
Flint sparks a thunderbolt of Truth as the “Gift” of Intuition. Whenever we learn an unexpected Truth, we return to the Past to see all the Times we witnessed the Truth Before. The Ah-ha Moment is always an Unexpected Truth we knew before. The failure to see was a Choice. On Flint we come face-to-face with the facts of the matter and see our Shadow in the Mirror. We see the broken one, afraid to Know a “hard truth” and afraid to believe in a Higher End. Like a thundercloud, positive and negative particles are separated into their own kind. The Truth is weighed in the Balance.

Cherokee Flint/DAWI’SGALA – Opener of the Way, a creator, innovator, stretches the mind to outside limits of capabilities. Changes the static to the dynamic. Brings about change, often through separation and destruction. Beams the Stellar Ray of Truth to Earth as a crystal sword cast down along the path of a lightning flash. Flint is the transformer that brings things to a head and wipes the slate clean.
Both Tone 7 and the Mirror share the Intention for Self-Reflection. The Creator shares a Gift of Retrospection to “see clearly.” The Truth always requires us to take action, and make a choice of a “next thing” we clearly need to do. Maybe we were putting off knowing the Truth to avoid the Chaos of Change. Maybe we were afraid to move forward without a clear direction. Tone 7 is the Highest Turning Point.
Like a thunderstorm, the stress of our “resistance” to face the Truth can generate “friction” that builds through the hours of the day. A Question of Truth gets under our skin, and our Heart wants to Resolve the Truth, once and for all. On Flint we come face-to-face with what we REALLY think. We see the imbalance of our hopes and fears.
Flint holds the Element of Air that relates to our faculties of Consciousness. From the North, the direction of the Heart of Sky, we’ll Know Truth and Wisdom that was delivered from Above. A veil is torn away from our Illusions in a personal way, and the Truth we realize can only be a Divine Illumination.
Flint/ETZNAB was one of the first Day signs I understood by the experience. Strange and unexpected insights leave an impression by something out of the ordinary. This is an important day to track the mind, be invisible, and spend time alone. The whole of us can be edgy on Flint Days, while the Truth festers to the surface. This is Time to offer wide-berth on the road as people are likely to “act out of character” (ie. the REAL Truth within).
Our Faith is put to the test and raised to the Light of Knowing. The Sacrifice is Knowing the Truth and nothing but the Truth at every cost. The “crystal sword” of Truth will cauterize the wound, when it’s followed by a “new gate that opens wide” as the Freedom to Leap toward Higher Ground.
The top of the pyramid is a place for a Leap of Faith, weighing the Truth that the Creator has an answer for everything, even the Questions we were afraid to ask.

Psalms 91: 14-16
14 Because he hath set his love upon me, therefore will I deliver him: I will set him on high, because he hath known my name. 15 He shall call upon me, and I will answer him: I will be with him in trouble; I will deliver him, and honour him. 16 With long life will I satisfy him, and shew him my salvation.
The pyramid reflects the Energy of the Creator’s steps to Creation. The first half of the way feels like an uphill climb. The stairs to Higher Consciousness are always “going up.” Only, when the Creator takes over to complete an end beyond our Human limitations, it feels like a downhill walk through the park. The Peak days of the trecena are when we have the Wind at our back, and the Truth gives us the Faith to stand for who we are.
A good Spiritual Tool for Self Reflection is Your favorite childhood picture, from back when you still believed Dreams were possible. Be the One in this realm that watches over and Knows exactly how much it means for them to know their dreams are coming true. Compassionate Love can make it easier to stand for “someone else.” Flint/ETZNAB raises the Truth to stand for our Self in perfect alignment with a Light Above.
We can Count our Blessings to the Heart of Sky who knows us better than we know our Self and proves it. I’m grateful that we don’t have to Defend the Truth that Speaks for itself and is written on our face.
love, in lak’ech, I am another you

7 Flint/ETZNAB (Cherokee, Flint/DAWI’SGALA) – Day 7 of 13 of the 1 Road/EB Trecena
Descriptions by Ian Xel Lungold, 12 Sun/AHAU from MayanMajix.com
Galactic Tone 7: Reflective. Seven stands as a mirror to divide light and dark and to reflect all that is and is not. Seven is associated with the source of creation and the flow of Divine Will. With a keen sense of ethics, Seven establishes purpose to current and future goals.
Flint/ETZNAB: Mirror of reality. As a struck flint, these persons are the divine sparks of intelligence. Flint’s innate abilities are utilized to discriminate emotions from fact. Flint persons stand tireless to protect, defend, or cure others by personal sacrifice. By courageously wielding the sword of truth, falsehoods are cut away. Flints, it was said, can receive information on inter-personal troubles or evil plots of others by reflecting in an obsidian mirror. Their valiant service as warriors of the truth must be impeccable or they will experience sufferings of accidents, misunderstandings and gossip.
A GOOD TO: Spend time in reflection and introspection.
