Greetings Beloved Kin,
Am I the only one up and down at all hours? I went to bed early at 10PM and felt like a whole night’s sleep, when the thunder and rain woke me up near 3:00 AM. There’s hardly any wind, so light to moderate rain is slowly drifting by. There was no legend to say what the magenta means in Oklahoma, but that’s the general northern territory of “tornado alley.” (No threats of that tonight, but they must be getting an awesome lightning show this Storm/CAUAC trecena.)
It smells so good outside, I took a deep breath for you. Funny how I find myself in a zero wind spot in the eye of a storm. Mild winds from central Kansas are pushing the clouds this way.
This trecena started as a hard climb, but it’s gotten more beautiful by the day since we made it to the top of the pyramid.
I’m taking it as a Divine Sign of a beautiful Major Life Change. PLUS, I had a good dream, instead of one of the weird zombie ones. 🙂
love, in lak’ech,
Debra

9 Deer/MANIK (Cherokee, Deer/Ahwu’sdi) – Day 9 of 13 of the 1 Storm/CAUAC Trecena
Descriptions by Ian Xel Lungold, 12 Sun/AHAU, from MayanMajix.com
Galactic Tone 9: Patience. The energy of Nine is one of the getting a better perspective of the bigger picture. With the energy of Nine plans or patterns begin to come to completion. Nine requires patience and perseverance that is found in the bigger picture, otherwise there is great suffering from the lack of insight. The completion of cycles of action is all-important to Nine.
Deer/MANIK (Hand): Deer are spirit tools. Silence itself is a spiritual experience for Deer. For Deer life is a pilgrimage. Deer are dominant persons who defend the people and will make sacrifices for others. The spirit of Deer upholds the pillars of the four directions. With the power inherent in the number four, Deer pushes away bad influences or negative energies. Skill and quality of work are very important to Deer. They are presented with tools for every task in life and it is with these that they are able to rise above limitations. Deer has a habit of keeping every tool it has ever used. This leads to clutter and indecision, loss and procrastination. When confronted with promises not kept, Deer becomes stubborn, manipulative and evasive.
A GOOD DAY TO: Be of Service to Others
Cherokee, Deer/Ahwu’sdi: Symbolized by Constellation Galagina, the Stag, known as Taurus, the Bull. It does not include the Pleiades and Hyades clusters which in Cherokee are viewed as separate. To feed, gatherers of food and supplies, they enjoy rituals, ceremonials, feasts, the souls of hospitality, sociability. Freedom versus security issues often inspire leadership and unique solutions. Combined with artistic and inspiring energies in harmony with lunar cycles, they nourish the clans. Totem-Deer: A priest or shaman, a powerful person in general, to overwhelm an individual with one’s personal power, divination; inclined to become a teacher, healer, guru, civic leader, or politician. Ability to create harmonic resonance.
