Greetings Beloved Kin,

Tone 5 raises the Intention of Empowerment. Our greatest power on the Road to our Destiny is to keep moving on. The Intention of our Spirit gains momentum with every step when we establish a rhythm and pattern of Movement. When we keep turning back to our Faith from the darkness of our doubts and fears, the more it becomes second nature. The force of our Intention will take on a power of its own by the time we reach Tone 6.

Moving in Divine Trinity for the Creator’s Highest Meaning and purpose holds exponential power. Wherever two are united as One, Faith grows exponentially. When we forget, we’ll know someone else is remembering. It only takes a little step to manifest a big leap of Faith. Now is the Time to take one little step every day. Our stride will grow as it becomes easier to take on the responsibility of the “next thing” we Know we can do.

I took a little step today that was looming large, but it was a simple matter when I saw it in hindsight. Sometimes it’s hard to be satisfied by a little step, when we think of all the things we’ll need to do to reach the end. One step matters, when it always leads us to the next thing. This is a good day to see and acknowledge your progress and claim that each little turn is taking us as far as we need to go, when it’s all about establishing a rhythm that will become the flow.

 

Owl is the Mystic Ferryman who guides Earthlings on the return path to the stars holding the torch aloft.

The Owl is the totem with the vision of the Eagle, and the means to see through the darkness by clearly seeing what’s behind. We’re not supposed to dwell on the past, but clearly focus on what we learned from it. CIB represents the Wisdom to apply the Truth we learned from the Past to make the choices Today, that will lead us to a New Future. The Owl shares the power to see beyond an illusion.

The more we turn away from dark thoughts, the more we realize the difficulty all in our head. We can look back to see the ground we’ve made before. When I was raising children on my own, there were times I needed to call the power company to negotiate a late payment. I was overwhelmed by the fear of picking up the phone. Yet, I knew it would all work out. I only had to say what I could do, and follow through. Now I can see that creditors are happy when you call to make arrangements. It was all about shame of what “someone else thinks.” That doesn’t have to slow us down from what we need to do.

CIB represents the Wisdom of the Ages that is our Divine Inheritance of Truth. One thing you learn from the Tzolk’in is that the same things happen on the same days of every round, only from higher ground. We’re building the strength of our wings. If we look to see, we’ll always be flying higher than before. To learn, we have to admit how little know and apply the curiosity to figure it out.

CIB is a day to honor the “Old Ones” who walked this way before. They left lots of wisdom so we could depend on more than just trial an error. We honor the “Old Ones” when we follow their advice.

CIB resides in the South, the down-below direction that relates to our Relationships with one another and with the Natural World. We can learn a lot if we apply our gift of curiosity instead of the evil one’s direction of resentments. That leaves us going round and round in the same old circles.

CIB holds the Element of Earth, which reminds us of  the value of a tangible experience. Every step we take clears away something hanging over our thoughts and clears the way for the “next thing” to have it’s Time and Focus to appear.

We’re still working our way out of the “inertia” of a new climb. Everything we carry out will be carried out by equal effort from a Hand Above. Tone 5 relates to the Common thought to gather everything we need before we get busy with “the work” of Creation. The Divine Purpose of the thought is to know “we can.” If we know we can, we will. And, when we’ve reached our Limit a Divine Hand Can and Will carry us the rest of the way. We’re supposed to reach our limit, so we can see the Miracle.

love, in lak’ech,

Debra, 9 Eagle/MEN

PS – My offering to the fire was “Seeing things as hard or impossible.”  We can ASK for anything.

MASTER NUMBER 555:
Tone 5 in the 5th uinal illustrates the Master Number 55. Add another 5 for June 23 (2+3 = 5). The power of any symbol is magnified by repetition.

HOLDING THE WAY OF THE JAGUAR: The Power of Gratitude
I’m grateful that every step counts to the One Above.

5 Wisdom/CIB (Cherokee, Owl U’GUKU’) – Day 5 of 13 of the 1 Road/EB Trecena

Descriptions by Ian Xel Lungold, 12 Sun/AHAU,  from MayanMajix.com

Galactic Tone 5: Empowerment. At the center of the cube we find Five. Five is an intelligent, organizing force which manages communications and materials, knowledge and application. Fives are natural net workers who gather what is needed. These persons can probe directly to the core of any situation making them excellent investigators.

Wisdom/CIB: The old ones. Wisdom of the ancients. Wisdom persons are aligned with the ancient memories that wait in the stone of temples and sacred sites all over the world. Wisdom people grow luck like a crop using a balance of prudence and tenacity. The tremendous inner strength of this sign enables silent introspection to discover areas of oneself that contain wisdom more valuable than any trove of archaeological treasure. Wisdom persons are valiant defenders of family and community. They may become hardened to life and sentiment turned cold. In these cases, they need much forgiveness for their uncaring errors. Periodically connecting with nature and or visiting sacred sites will bring great stability to wisdom persons.

CIB IS A GOOD DAY TO: Sit on a rock. Take a Wise step after you think about it. One will lead to another.

Cherokee, Owl U’GUKU’ : Symbol is the Owl is Arcturus, the brightest Star in the Constellation Bootes. The Cherokee Bear constellation (Ursa Major) includes the Big Dipper plus four stars in Bootes.  Owl is a hunter, who stands for the wisdom and ability of all great hunters, the cunning of a fox, the tenacity of a bulldog and strength of a bear. Energy for deep thinkers, strong-willed, rigid convictions, bold and authoritative.  Owl is the Mystic Ferryman who guides Earthlings on the return path to the stars holding the torch aloft.
