Greetings Beloved Kin,
Sun/AHAU symbolizes the Supreme Lord of Creation. AHAU shines the light on Truth in the shadows, and Truth hidden in plain sight. Every encounter with the Sun offers a Revelation of the Identity. We were born to be a Personification of the Highest One.
Peak Tone 8 is the Holy Day of every trecena as the zenith hour of Light. Sun/AHAU is exalted in Tone 8, which holds the Intention of Divine Justice in Harmony and Equity with the whole. AHAU holds Position 20, marked as the Zero. 8 Sun/AHAU balances the Truth and the Light, As Above, So Below.
COMPLETING THE THIRD UINAL
The 3rd uinal of the Tzolk’in holds the Intention of Movement from a Higher Place, as the Order of the “lords of the Day” that represent the Omega, the all-in-one. Sun/AHAU completes the Intention for Movement that we chose from the beginning. In the end, we’re defined by all the choices we make. 8 Sun/AHAU brings the Truth to Light. The Truth will speak for itself.
When our choices are led by the Intention of Divine Trinity, the Sacred Exchange is knowing we Invested our Life in a Higher Cause. Destiny Kin Number 60 symbolizes a Trinity Below United in Divine Trinity with the One Above.
AHAU resides in the South to shine a light on our Relationships in the down-below. AHAU is the Highest Authority to enforce the Laws of the Universe. The Highest Law is the Golden Rule, enforced by the Universal Law of Cause and Effect.
Holding the Element of Earth, Sun/AHAU reveals the Truth in a tangible way that is recognized as the “real thing” in the realm of physicality. Today we can expect to know the Truth in a tangible way, seen in broad daylight.
Tone 8 begins the Transformation phase of each 13-day trecena. For every effort we invested in the Mission of Love, a Hand Above will carry out by the Power of Divine Intervention. The Creator’s Hand holds exponential power beyond the limits of our Human investment in Love. The “sum of the whole” blessing ends with the Justice of Zero that leans in the favor of the Ones who follow the Highest way.

“AHAU is the Day of the ancestors and connection to their guidance. The divine face of the sun – lord, musician, singer, dancer, and marksman. Suns are artistic, heroic athletes, visionaries with wise judgment who lead and defend the people.” The Whole Truth held in the Light Above includes the Wisdom of the Ages, and the Divine Truth known by every Human that’s walked this way before. Through Human’s eyes the Creator is the ever-present witness of the Truth in every Time and Place.
We are transformed to our Highest State of Being when our eyes are trained on the Truth of Love, the Beauty of Creation that was intended to be the center of the Circle of Life from the beginning to the end, the Alpha to the Omega. The Cherokee Flower/GUN’TSI EK illustrates the Divine way as the Faces that follow the Light of the Sun as it crosses the Heart of Sky.
A Divine Father wrote the Truth in the heart of Human’s Seed. We’re guided by the Truth that speaks as the “angel on our shoulder” so we will always know the wisest choices we can make. We’re always turned to see the way to carry out the Creator’s Will for the Highest Ends of Love. We were given the Sacred Right to Choose. The Creator offered the way and witnessed every choice we made. The Truth will be known by a Power of Divine Agency that will carry out the Promise of Justice for the whole.
This is the Haab Year guided by the Year Bearer 12 Road/EB, a symbol of Human as another name for EB, and repeated by the Number 12. Number 12 reflects the potential we hold as the Being of Duality (2) in the lower place, that is guided by the 1 Above (10) to become the Divine 13 with every choice that is united with the One Above. The Aztec sign for EB is Mallinali, the Grass which represents Human’s perennial spirit. On the Earth’s vague-year cycle of 365 days, the Intention of 12 Road/EB/Mallinali is ordered as Truth for the whole to see on a planetary scale. Tone 12 holds the Intention of Understanding when the Truth is taken to heart. The Aztec defines the cycle as the Time for the grass to rise again. This year favors the down-trodden, the oppressed, and the “under-dog.” The odds lean away from their oppressors.

As the end of the 3rd uinal of Movement, we are bound to see the Hand of Divine Agency in motion, carrying out the Divine Will of Justice on behalf of the Faithful who made the Sacrifice of the Heart. Number 8 is the symbol of Abundance and Life to infinity.
This is a Day to Honor the Wisdom of the Old Ones that shared their first-hand witness of the “hard road” every Human must bear to know the Truth in the end. We all fulfill the Divine Purpose just by being. It’s up to us to create a Divine Reason for Living. Those are the Humans who rise as the Ascended Masters of Love.
May we turn our eyes to the One who manifested the Divine Design for Creation that carries out the Sacred Exchange for every Offering of Love. The Gift is knowing the Creator will stand by our side and will always be in our corner. We are also Gifted through the Offering of Divine Inspiration and the Truth of everything known Above. We can do anything a Divine Father can do, and realizing the Truth of a Promise, we’ll learn to ask for everything our Heart Dreams to be.
All our Human dreams in the world will pass away. The only tangible Truth we have to leave behind is the Offering of Love. The Truth is intended to be known in the all-around when that’s the choice we make for the Ones Above. Even the ones who fail shared the Truth. Sometimes a bad example offers the best way to see that there are no exceptions to the Law of Cause and Effect, and no exceptions to the Golden Rule.
May we kneel to the “Master of Everything,” and the Only One that is the Final Authority to raise the Darkness to Light. May we remember a Divine Sanctuary that waits on the other side where we will belong forever. May we give thanks for the Truth that guides the way.
in lak’ech, i am another you

8 Sun/AHAU (Cherokee, Flower/GUN’TSI EK)
Descriptions by Ian Xel Lungold, 12 Sun/AHAU, MayanMajix.com
Galactic Tone 8: Justice. Harmony and balance are the intent of Eights carefully weighs all evidence to reach a balance of justice. Eight is the power of organization demonstrated in the statement ‘as above, so below,’ from simplicity to infinity, the energy of eight organizes all levels of creation, some eights are ‘neat freaks.’
Sun/AHAU: Day of the ancestors and connection to their guidance. The divine face of the sun – lord, musician, singer, dancer, and marksman. Suns are artistic, heroic athletes, visionaries with wise judgment who lead and defend the people. So much is expected from themselves and by other people that unfulfilled expectations are a certainty. An accumulation of these disappointments may lead Sun to evade responsibilities, not accept corrections and even build resentment and disdain towards others. Suns should simplify their lives to be able to rise and shine with unconditional love once again.
THIS IS A GOOD DAY TO: Ask for the Wisdom and continued honored memory of our Ancestors.
Cherokee, Flower/GUN’TSI EK: Symbol is the Sun, place of abode of Great Spirit. The Sun creates, nurtures, and is the super communicator, the way station that relays messages and energy from other stars in the galaxy; provides energy for channeling information from the Ancestors; speaking the Living Language of Light, which ignites the consciousness in others. Gold is the color of courage and opportunity of wealth. Creative arts, master craftsman expressing divinity and wisdom through their creations. The face of the flower follows the Sun gathering the fire of creativity, illuminating harmony and balance, resonating peace and continuity within the human spirit. This is the Sign of the Chalice of the Infinite, Caldron of Creation.
