ANIMAL BEHAVIOR DURING THE SOLAR ECLIPSE: Humans aren’t the only animals who respond to solar eclipses. Baboons, bees, spiders, giraffes and many other species have surprised researchers with their reactions to the Moon covering the sun. Would you like to help investigate? Solar Eclipse Safari, a citizen science project, is asking people in the path of totality of the April 8th solar eclipse to report their observations of wildlife. Watch their training video and get involved!
(The Elders warned against viewing a total Solar Eclipse. I didn’t listen last time. This time feels different. I am more curious to see what the Green Beings do. I never thought about the animals. The birds fell silent during the last eclipse. Now I wonder what my cat, Girlie, might do.)

“This is a 32 min exposure in 15 sec single shots,” says Fritz Helmut Hemmerich, who observed the comet from Tenerife in the Canary Islands on March 31st. “The comet looked great as it passed near the yellow-orange star Hamal (mutton in Arabic) in the constellation Aries. I’m very happy to get this shot with such modest equipment.”

“Core thoughts” about Truth and Beauty that moved me today

Proverbs 21:21
Those who pursue righteousness and kindness will find life, righteousness, and honor.
I believe systemic negativity is a kind of spiritual bondage. Likewise, the ability to see wonder and light and God’s goodness at play is very much a spiritual gift.
Derek Maul Blog, “Not “rose-colored glasses” but a heart open to the Spirit of God”
“We have nothing to offer but the truth, and it is the truth that will set men free.”
Excerpt from Messages From Spirit
Shared by Sheila “Spiral Sister” Murrey, “the ways of God”

I think I’ve been using the word “hope” wrong. I often use it interchangeably with “wish.” As in, “I hope you have a safe trip.”
Researcher and author, Brené Brown, describes hope as a cognitive process:
“But hope is not what most of us think it is. It’s not a warm, fuzzy emotion that fills us with a sense of possibility. Hope is a way of thinking – a cognitive process. Yes, emotions play a role, but hope is made up of what researcher, C.R. Snyder called a “trilogy of goals, pathways, and agency.” (Atlas of the Heart by Brené Brown)

The “core days” of Creation in the Tzolk’in Round
4 Crocodile/IMIX (Cherokee Turtle/ DAK’SI I’SB) – Day 4 of 13 in the 1 Flint/ETZNAB cycle of Truth from Above
Descriptions by Ian Xel Lungold (12 Sun/AHAU), wisdom preserved on MayanMajix.com
Galactic Tone 4: Stability; the cube is most stable of all forms and establishes volume by definition of height, length, depth and breadth; 4 directions establish orientation. The energy of 4 sets the parameters, which establish the freedoms and barriers needed to create a game, work, or relationship.
Crocodile/IMIX: Crocodile receives messages of primal creative force; simply the beginning of all things. Crocodiles who follow their hearts are seen as genius. There is no order to the primal messages, so Crocodile persons should direct their energies toward practical and cooperative efforts to bring productive results. Crocodiles have a strong nurturing energy and will work hard to provide security to family and friends. Being extremely territorial, Crocodiles must watch not to be over protective or too dominating. While in these states, Crocodiles are insecure, indecisive and emotionally volatile.
A GOOD DAY TO: Open to new beginnings.
Cherokee Turtle/ DAK’SI I’SB: Turtle Island; direction East. The Turtle Constellation Orion, one of three stars in the Cosmic Egg, to the Maya, the Cosmic Hearth. Turtle is the Energy of Creative force at the one-on-one, personal level; dawn, awakening, birth.
