Greetings Beloved Kin,

Is it a Sunrise or a Sunset? We were given the Sacred Right to Choose. The Monkey/CHUEN is the weaver of Time holding position 11, symbolizing the Gift of Consciousness offered by the Highest One to Manifest our own Creation of Beauty. We can choose what we call the beginning and the end. If we haven’t reached our Highest Hopes and Aspirations, we can call it a Sunrise, the First Light of our Creation that has yet to reach the end of Beauty that the Supreme Lord of Creation intended to be.

 

Reed/BEN is the Guiding Light for Family and Home. The glyph illustrates the altar where we always belong. In a Sanctuary within we can exist for ALL Time. In Divine Communion with the Highest One Above, there’s always a place for us at the table where the Creator shares a Divine Relationship, and created us to know everything we have to say about our witness of Life and our Dreams for tomorrow. The Highest Authority knows every “bright idea” we share was Inspired from Above. All the Dreams we share that serve the Highest Good of the Whole are bright ideas that were meant to be carried out our own way,  as the expression of who we long to be. We were intended to become a Personification of the Creator’s Light.

8 Reed / BEN

HOLY DAY OF THE TRECENA
Peak Tone 8 is the beginning of the Transformation phase of every trecena. Number 8 is the Mayan symbol of “pure spirit” that holds the Creator’s Intention of Divine Justice in Harmony and Equity with the whole.

Human carried a Dream to the top of the pyramid (Tone 7) to see “all that is” and “all that is not.” On the Holy Day, beyond the zenith hour of Light, “all that is not” is “the work” of creation that will be finished by the Highest Authority. From Tone 8 through Tone 12, a Divine Agency intervenes for everything that is intended to be. Tone 8 begins the Sacred Exchange of Atonement for the Offering of Love we intended to carry to its highest end.

The glyph illustrates an altar with two channels of Light descending from Above. The Creator shares Divine Inspiration and the Legion of Light from our Divine Ancestors, share the Wisdom of their experience, Above and Below. Beneath the altar are the thatched prayer mats that offer an equal place for 2. The 2 Above and the 2 Below are united to manifest the Power of Divine Trinity.

We are called to our Knees in Humility and Gratitude for the Unconditional Love that is a Divine Provision for every Human limitation. Reed/BEN is the aspect of the Creator that balances all things when Human makes the choice to walk-the-walk as we are Guided by the Creator’s Light that was shared witihin.

Reed/BEN is that perspective we hold when we become the leader of a family. For the Love of the children, we put our own Faith in action as a demonstration for those who will walk in our shoes. Humans share a Common way of sharing everything we know in hopes of making Life easier for those who follow. Reed/BEN reminds us that Our Truth isn’t the Highest Wisdom we have to share. The Only Truth the children need to know is the Promise of Answered Prayers. If the children are our hope for the future, we have to stand in Faith by our own prayers, that they will learn more than we do. They will grow into the leaders of tomorrow. We may have more experience, but that doesn’t mean we’re smarter. The Maya believe we are all sages at birth.

Sage: one (such as a profound philosopher) distinguished for wisdom. : a mature or venerable person of sound judgment

The Truth is self-evident by everything the children are eager to know. They share profound wisdom about the Truth of Life, when we care to listen. They speak directly from the heart.

That’s why we know we have to straighten up and fly right. They see and hear it all and they notice when we don’t walk the walk. They ask questions before they are “old enough to know.” The Elders always say, “the answer is in the question.” They wouldn’t ask if they weren’t engaging their own faculties of reason to figure it out. It seems like most of their questions are “why?” They already “know what it is.”

We knew “what it is” from our very beginning, until a grown-up told us to forget, or suggested we weren’t old enough to know. Children are taught to believe that the Truth doesn’t matter for ALL Time. So, later, we have to Remember what came natural in the beginning.

At their beginning they were amazed by a new world of Light and Open Spaces for the room to move. We all went through a Life or Death experience. If we lived through it, we knew we were Saved by the Light of a New Beginning. That was our “first light” of experience. We were primed to look to see everything that came after.

May we walk in the shoes of the most Divine Sages on Earth that still remember their first Milestone that left a mark. We have to tell the children that “we were young too.” Why is it so hard to remember how to walk in their shoes? Life is an adventure. They know they’ll learn something new every time they go outside. They expect a brand new day with every Sunrise, looking to see what comes next.

Like the snails who taught us there has to be a milestone experience for us to associate a meaning to the Truth that follows, may we remember the very beginning when our life was saved by a Divine Provision beyond the limits of our imagination, so that’s what we’ll be looking for as the end of everything that follows.

Reed/BEN guides us to Create the Brightest Light from a beginning for everything that follows. May we claim the Sign that we saw in the beginning, and look to see the Creator’s way of guiding us to create our Highest end from the Dream shared in our Heart. May we claim we’re always on the way, until we reach that end.  May we leave behind every “just another day” for the Truth that there is a Divine Meaning and Purpose for ALL Time to reach the end of our Heart’s Desire. May we remember that from the beginning, the Creator offered a place where we belonged beyond the darkness and into the Light.

love, in lak’ech,

PS. I have a bright idea about creating my own Milestone at the Full Moon, as the Sign for the Seed to plant on the New Moon.

The Sign before on December 26, 2021 was a “White Christmas.” I had NO IDEA then, that a home of my own would be a dream come true on January 11, 2022. I didn’t have a clue. I thought for sure I missed my last chance in August 2021. That’s a good enough Sign to hold faith in ALL the Signs that the Creator is leading us by the hand of CIMI to see the Truth again in the future. (That’s why it’s important to write down every Miracle. At the time, you can’t imagine how you could ever forget a miracle of answered prayers.)

Winter 2021 – I was wondering where I belonged, beyond my 4 x 6′ patio and a fairy garden.

In Spring 2023, the view has changed, but I’m still wondering the same thing. I wonder where I’ll go from here. It must be a Sign that I’m still on the way home. Instead of crows as the “big birds” now I have pigeons, and CARDINALS, along with the sparrows and squirrels. 🙂

 

8 Reed/BEN (Cherokee, Reed/I’HYA) – Day 8 of 13 of the Transformer/CIMI trecena raises the Truth in the Zenith Hour of Light.

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.’

Reed/BEN: Reed persons are the spiritual essence, protectors and guiding light for family and home. They are competent speakers who will take up a cause. Very tough and analytical, Reeds endeavor to bring peace, harmony and order to all o their relations. Reeds are blessed with great skill at negotiations and consoling which are very often put to the test. Although Reeds need a lot of appreciation, may have marriage or business problems because of inflexible vies and high expectations, which erode affinity. The lesson for Reed is to be like a garden hose, not a steel pipe. Bless or repair your house.

A GOOD DAY TO: Bless or repair your home.  I’m repairing my website – and living online with a dream for tomorrow. 🙂

Cherokee, Reed/I’HYA: REED – Symbol-Reed is the Earth, reflection of the Star Chaga of Pollux. Reed made up the Magician Twins who led the journey to bring back to life the daughter of the Sun. The Casket is Gemini.  Energy for Intellectual minds, creation, re-creation, new directions, breaking the ties that bind.  A trailblazer and leader. From the East, direction of success and happiness, no matter what route is taken, always ending up in the Light.

  1. I have had a change right at the time you wrote this. Amazing. It did seem like a “sunset” but now I view it as a sunrise. What a beautiful thing for my heart. Your wisdom stuns me. Thank you in lak’ECH and love, Michele
