2 Jaguar / IX
Greetings Beloved Kin,
Jaguar/IX is the symbol of Spirit. The Jaguar is rarely seen in the wild, except for the heavy footprints left behind. IX is a “pronoun” of the Divine Feminine holding the aspects of Discernment and Compassionate Love.
The Jaguar is a symbol of the Reality of Spirit, the same Above, as Below. The dimension of Spirit is the place that’s Real. The world below is the illusion created from Human’s imagination. We created the cast of characters and wrote the dialogue behind the scenes. The Jaguar’s Reflection on the Water is the Reality it sees, one with the Earth and the Heart of Sky.
We are guided to see the Truth from the perspective of the Mirror’s image. The Truth stands on every scale. Sometimes the Truth is easier to see upside down and backwards. If you can’t discern the Realness of Spirit, try discerning what’s real in the world of physicality.
The Spirit of Compassionate Love is Unseen, though we know where it’s been. Life is an experience we were created to share. Whether we experience joy or sorrow, we long to express how it feels with someone who cares. The problem with Humans is that we’re rarely on the same page at the same time. In today’s world, we’re more likely to be engaged in a virtual reality.
Virtual: adjective
Almost or nearly as described, but not completely or according to strict definition
Jaguar offers an experience of the Reality of Spirit, “virtually one and the same,” As Above, So Below,” we can Feel with all our Senses. When the Jaguar/IX appears, we’re guided to follow the footprints on a Journey to the East, to Feel the Truth in the Light.

Compassionate Love is the Power of the shape-shifter who can walk in someone else’s shoes. Our Spirit offers the capacity to step into the shoes of every living thing.
By Divine Design we’re all searching for the experience of Love. The “earth magic” of the Jaguar is Gratitude. The Divine Mother saw us when we perfect in the beginning. She knows Love is impossible to forget. There’s hope for all of us by Divine Design. Spirit is made Real through an Answer to our Prayers. From the Divine Powers that be, the Jaguar guides us to a Leap of Faith. Knowing is the Sacred Exchange and the Answer to our Prayer.
IX resides in the North, the direction of Divine Wisdom and the Element of Air. The Jaguar employs all its physical senses, like the Dog. Only the Jaguar holds the heightened senses of Spirit.
The Reality of Spirit is Here and Now, in the shadows of every Human step in the world. We know when Love has crossed our path long after it’s gone. We can Feel the Unseen shadows cast over our heart by the Intentions of a Human Ego. You can count on the Truth of your Spirit when you are dedicated to the Practice of turning to the Creator.
All the Light we need to guide our way is a Feeling in our Heart that tells us where we belong. “Home” isn’t a place where we walk on eggshells. At “home” we are loved for better or worse as the Sacred Exchange for Unconditional Love that Knows us and Understands. Those are the conditions where we can grow to our Highest Potential.
By Faith we can claim the Creator is witness to every moment and knows exactly how we feel. We can be perfect for one another through silence and invisibility. We can listen with the Intention to Reflect on what’s being said, instead of conceiving our reply. We can express our feelings to the Creator when we need to hear what’s on our mind.
Jaguar/IX can engage us in a Divine Communion of Spirit. Through a choice to be invisible, we can see from the outside in. Ian Lungold said that Consciousness was paying attention to Moment instead of what we think about it. The Creator speaks to us through Mother Nature and the dynamic beauty of Life all around. IX is the Guardian of the Light of Mother Earth.
On Tone 2, we’re inclined to want to figure something out. Tone 2 is Human’s perspective of Duality and a Choice “to be or not to be.” We’re being moved beyond Human’s Question to a higher Truth. We are intended to be, and by Divine Will we’ll be guided to the place where we’ll see the Truth in Hindsight. Miracles are happening in the realm of Spirit. That’s the Answer to a Prayer we all long to know.
At an altar within, may we turn our thoughts to the Unlimited Possibilities we can’t see. May we turn to the Wisdom of our own Experience to Count the Blessings that have appeared in disguise. May we tread lightly where others are suffering and find our own Peace in a Sanctuary within. Every Human Seed is born with the potential to Experience the Truth of Reality. Mother Earth is the only thing that’s Real in the down-below.
Panther is symbolized by comets, meteors, shooting stars, fireballs, and magicians. Jaguar/IX is Time ordered to See and Acknowledge the Beauty between Mother Earth and Father Sky.

THE JAGUAR’S EARTH MAGIC OF GRATITUDE:
I’m grateful for more beauty on Earth than we could ever see and for Life in a Living Reality.

The Jaguar is the Queen of the Mayan jungle. Spirit guards the sacred sites and temples in stealth as the Unseen Breath of every offering. The Human experience is Invisible. It’s after we leave that we realize how we were changed by the place.

2 Jaguar/IX (Cherokee, Panther/SAHO’NI) – Day 2 of 13 of the 1 Reed/BEN trecena
Descriptions by Ian Xel Lungold (12 Sun/AHAU), wisdom and Tzolk’in calculator preserved on MayanMajix.com
Galactic Tone 2: Mysterious as the question ‘to be or not to be?” Two is the recognition of the separation of self from all else and the desire to be rejoined. Walking a balance while making choices of all kinds, light/dark, male/female, good/bad, Yin/Yang, is the energy of this number. Experiencing the differences between one and another is the use and purpose of this number.
Jaguar/IX: Born with a deep love of the Mother Earth, Jaguar or shaman is directly tied to the source of all Earth magic. They possess great power of intellect and strength or character through integrity. Jaguar energy is feminine in nature and is the ruling spirit of jungles, plains, and mountains. The spirit of Jaguar inhabits the Mayan temples and is called on to assist in spiritual as well as in material ways. Jaguar is also the god/goddess of gratefulness. Patience born of strength and skill can turn to pounce of quick decision and action. Both bold and stealthful, Jaguars do not often attack directly and communications from them usually contain some mystery. In the absence of integrity, Jaguars power corrupts becoming a search for wealth and fame.
A GOOD DAY TO: Commune and give thanks to Mother Nature.
Cherokee, Panther/SAHO’NI: Panther is symbolized by comets, meteors, shooting stars, fireballs, and magicians. Meteors appearing around the middle of November are Heralds of the Coming of the Light, the Cherokee New Year. Panther is the Shadow of the Sphinx, Herald of the Dawn, guardian of the night when the sun is traveling through the underworld. Panthers have unlimited imaginations, visualizations, and are spellbinding speakers. The Cherokee Totem Jaguar is the guardian of the portals to other dimensions; shamanic abilities will open; multi-dimensional magic; healer, leader, way shower energy when used for spiritual growth. Abuse would be for using this power for control or negative purposes; must find a powerful balance. Ix: The Kab’awil represents the heart of the planet, the female reproductive tract, the face of a jaguar and points east on the world map. Ix: woman, tiger. Conducive to pray for grandmothers, mothers, daughters, sisters and wives day. Balances, cunning and protection of Mother Nature. To thank the Earth for sustenance. Ix is the native cunning, enterprising, vigorous, bold and realistic.

By providing the original text, I hope to offer a way to see what inspired my thoughts and by including all the aspects – allow for something more to inspire you.
