The Power of Small Things to Change the Universe
Greetings Beloved Kin,
By the Power of splitting the Atom, we shouldn’t be surprised that very small things can change everything. The Light of a candle carries on forever at light-speed.
James Webb Space Telescope finds dwarf galaxies packed enough punch to reshape the entire early universe
“The main surprise is that these small faint galaxies had so much power, their cumulative radiation could transform the entire universe.”
Astronomers have used the James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) and an effect predicted by Albert Einstein over 100 years ago to discover that small galaxies in the early cosmos packed a massive punch, shaping the entire universe when it was less than 1 billion years old.
The international team found the galaxies, which resemble dwarf galaxies that exist today, played a vital role during a crucial stage of cosmic evolution that occurred between 500 and 900 million years after the Big Bang. These small galaxies also vastly outnumbered larger galaxies in the infant universe, the scientists say, adding that it’s likely the realms supplied most of the energy needed for a process called cosmic reionization. Cosmic reionization was critical to the growth and progression of the universe.
“We’re really talking about the global transformation of the entire universe,” Hakim Atek, research lead author and an astronomer at the Institut d’Astrophysique de Paris, told Space.com. “The main surprise is that these small, faint galaxies had so much power, their cumulative radiation could transform the entire universe.” (Source: Space.com)
The smallest creations, manifested for a Divine Meaning and Purpose, are more than equal to the power of the greatest mass of physicality. There is Divine Strength in small things united as One.

How do we know what the Milky Way looks like?
It’s surprisingly difficult to measure something from the inside.
Ironically, the exact shape of our own galaxy is one of the hardest of all such systems to determine. After all, we’ve no choice but to view it from the inside. In the 1780s William Herschel became the first to observe the galaxy’s spiral shape. Then in 1926, Edwin Hubble pinned down an accurate morphology of the Milky Way as he systematically classified the varying galaxy shapes in the observable Universe.

My gift for the Tzolk’in round is the “Tzolk’in Field Guide: A Daily Practice for Personal Discernment.” Volume 1 covers the first two seasons of the Tzolk’in round. The “Field Guide” is available to download from a link on the 13-day Trecena Guide Page.
The Storm/CAUAC trecena is in Volume 1, Season 2.
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.
