THE TRECENA OF WISDOM/CIB: AN ILLUMINATION OF CONSCIOUSNESS

Greetings Beloved Kin,

The 11th uinal is a guided journey beyond an Illusion we think is the Truth. Wisdom/CIB began a new season, living in the integrity of the Truth and nothing but the Truth. The only way for Human to come close is to make an Offering of our Human limitations to Know.

The greatest challenge to manifesting the Dreams of our Heart’s desire is a war within our self. There are Truths too painful to see, and Dreams too good to bear when our mind of reason is veiled by our Human emotions. Feeling matter, and Emotions are not the Truth.

Peak Tone 8 is the Holy Day of every trecena. Some are celebrated in community and others are observed as a solitary Holy Day. On 8 Night/AKBAL we’re alone with our Dreams. Sometimes the Faith we hold so dear can seem to disappear in thin air. (If you have any sense, it’s a thought you won’t follow.)

Higher Consciousness is the faculty to see beyond worldly illusions. We are taking in the Light of the Full Harvest Super Moon, the Season of  Divine Justice. Justice can feel like a very bad thing when we take inventory of our own limitations. How could we deserve our Heart’s Desire after all the ways we fail?

I remember my first 8 Night/AKBAL and I will never forget. (AKBAL came in second to Flint/ETZNAB for leaving an impression.) We have to be willing to experience the Darkness to See the Light. This is a Time for Reflection on the season that came before. On AKBAL one season before can lead to another before and one limitation that feels like a common theme. Like a flashback, it all seems to return to THIS Time and Place, and all the doubts and fears of today. There is a Divine Provision, one you don’t expect, yet it tears the veil away from a clouded vision of Human’s one-sided Truth.

 

MASTER NUMBER 88:
The 8th Day and 8th Tone reflect the Number 88. 8 is a symbol of Life and Abundance to Inifinity. 8 holds the Intention of Divine Justice, carried out by a Power Greater than our Self. Consciousness of the Truth of a Power and Authority over our Life is Wisdom worth all the Time it takes to know. Master Numbers cause our subconscious mind to “look twice.”

AKBAL is  “The Heart” of the Eternal Flame. Like the Truth of a Divine Provision, AKBAL is the Spark that Feels the Truth of the Creator’s Unconditional Love, and a Divine Intention for Justice in Harmony and Equity on behalf of the whole.

On AKBAL days it feels like you never woke up. There may have been a Dream on your mind, one you Loved, only you can’t rememeber. AKBAL can cloud our  thoughts with unknown distraction. Our subcious thoughts are detached from our conscious thoughts; reason is separated from our imagination. Like a Dream, thoughts can come out of sequence from different time zones. Mystical experiences are possible on AKBAL, as a Voice that speaks in our Dreams.

Holding the Element of Water, our Emotions can be stirred up, while we try to recover equillibrium. We are being detached from an ordinary course of thoughts,  so that the Creator can reveal a Context that makes perfect sense to our mind of reason, and opens the door to imagine Unlimited Possibilities. Everything will be better than okay in the end if you’re willing to follow orders. “Be Present in the Moment with all your Thoughts and Feelings.”

We’re the “Dreamer that believes in the Illusion.” The fear that’s rooted is the question of being enough. We were always enough and the Voice of the Creator can share a reason you can know it’s the Truth.

Share your thoughts, feelings, emotions, and tears as the “prayer of Spirit” as a Direct Communion with the Lord of all Creation. We’re half-awake on AKBAL. In the moments you “come to” you may find yourself taking a dark personnal inventory.

The Creator is the judge and jury of the Highest Authority. The Creator is the first hand witness of all the facts of the matter. When the Truth speaks for itself, we look behind us and know we witnessed the truth many times before.

To be the King’s Knight in Shining Armor we had to face some battles. We’ve reached our Last Hope more than once in our life, and we’re still standing. AKBAL is the Voice that covers the Weakness of a Broken Heart. “Somebody does know the trouble we’ve seen.”

A Divine Witness has kept a record of failure, and every burden we carried to no fault of our own. The King’s Covenant is Divine Justice from One who’s seen how many times we dusted ourself off and carried on in “blind faith.”

There is exponential value in the Divine Choices we make to Lend a Hand to the One Above. We are intended to exist under an illusion of melancholy, yet, there’s a Time for everything. It’s okay. A Divine Creator intends to set the record straight by measuring the value of your Love, Loyalty, and Service.

That’s the Truth we forget when we’re lost in an illusion that tarnishes our Name. We have to be willing to Feel so we can let go of the Human limitations that no longer serve. The Breastplate is the symbol of our Truth of Righteousness. There’s a difference between “foolish choices” and “mean choices.” Foolish choices are inevitable when we “believe in the dream of an illusion.”

Life is hard – no doubt about that. There’s never a reason to give up on your last hope. Somehow, someway, a Genius of Creation knows something more than we do. 🙂 Our Past was wiped away when we dedicated our self in service. Everything that came before led us to who we are reaching to be today.

Water is the Element used by the Mayan priest for blessings, purification, initiations, and baptisms. This is a day to honor the Holiness of Water, including our Tears. Find a time and place to keep your own company. In the 11th uinal, we can have a Divine Wake-up Call to the Presence of a Holy Spirit in our Life. We will know when we hear an answer that broke through while we believed there was no hope.

The Divine Truth is always a good thing. The Dream Above is Real and the Illusion below is just a reflection of our doubts and fears.

love, in lak’ech, i am another you

THE TRECENA OF WISDOM/CIB: AN ILLUMINATION OF CONSCIOUSNESS

Visit the 13-Day Trecena Guide Page for the “Tzolk’in Field Guide: A Daily Practice for Personal Discernment.” My gift for the Tzolk’in round offers an overview for each 13-day trecena and the aspects of each day of the Tzolk’in round. The page also offers a link to resources for your own practice of counting the days to conceive your own discernment of the Meaning of Time.

4TH SEASON: 1 Wisdom/CIB begins the 4th Season of the Tzolk’in – VOLUME 2: Tzolk’in Seasons 3 and 4 (PUBLISHED SEPTEMBER 20, 2020)

NOTE: You can also look at dates from a different direction. What is the Destiny Kin number of your day sign’s 3rd tone? You may have overlooked a life-changing day. Use the Kin Calculator offered on the Daykeeper’s Resource Page for a date six years before or after. If you are just starting to count the days and don’t have a journal from the last round, when something major happens in your life you can look to see if there was a major event on that same date before. You can also look for Signs in the “distance of time” – the number of days between one 13 Eagle/MEN (Cherokee, Eagle/UWO’HATLI)Calculator linked on the resources page. Example – 33 days is a symbol of a day that you actualize the Truth from the beginning date.

8 Night/AKBAL (Cherokee, HEARTH/O’YA) – Day 8 of 13 of the 1 Wisdom/CIB trecena

Descriptions by Ian Xel Lungold (12 Sun/AHAU), wisdom and Tzolk’in calculator preserved on MayanMajix.com

Galactic Tone 8: Justice. Harmony and balance are the intent of Eight. Eights carefully weigh 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”.

Night/Akbal: Bringers of the Dawn. Dreamers who bring the new sun to clarify and illuminate the road of life. Thus the insecurities and doubts born of darkness of the sub-conscious mind are dispelled. These persons travel the Void. a place where nothing yet exists but all potential dwells, the womb of creation. From this void, Night persons bring forth new solutions and artistic inspiration. Night’s voyages of dreams build confidence and happiness with a sense of well being. If night does not bravely journey into the void they may find themselves wandering the darkness of self doubt and insecurity.

A GOOD TIME TO: Spend some time conteplating the stars.

Cherokee, Hearth/O’YA: Hearth’s symbol is the fire pit in the Center, velvet black as the night. The triangle in Orion. The M42 nebula (home of the Central race from the WingMakers) in the center of the triangle of Orion is the fire in the Hearth, also matching the Mayan. The Hearth is the Torchbearer who holds the light and warmth throughout the night. Belief is so strong that the surrounding elements become entrained to their rhythm and all resistance falls away. With respect and honor of intuition combined with knowledge this energy creates the magic of the center in this dimension. AKBAL-Night-Totem-OWL: Guardian of the Night Sun. Energies for the opening of mystic secrets, seeing through the masks of deception, trickery. High ability of discernment. Portals open to other worlds and dimensions for your learning and spiritual growth. Magical abilities are possible.
