The Beginning and the End

THE TRECENA OF WIND/IK: TRUTH OF THE CREATOR’S WORD
MAYAN CALENDAR DAYKEEPER’S JOURNAL
12 Reed/BEN (Cherokee, Reed/ I’HYA), Destiny Kin 233,  Position 13
July 24, 2024, 07/24/2024; Last Round: November 7, 2023, 11/07/2023

The 13 days of this trecena are governed by the elemental intent of the divine Whirlwind: to create chaos out of order. Order and reason outlive their purpose and must be replaced by the potential for new, unexpected, unpredictable, change. It is precisely in the heart of order that the lightning bolt strikes. These are 13 days of instability and insecurity. The warrior prefers to have no relationships if the only alternative is to have bad relationships: thievery abounds and no treasure of the heart is safe. These are good days to be in the vanguard; bad days to be encamped behind the front. Aztec Calendar

Greetings Beloved Kin,

Time always has a beginning and an end. On Earth they are Life and Death. In a realm Above, an experience of Earth’s Time ends in the Transformation to Universal Time, the ever-present Moment.

The chaos of the world interferes with the balance that supports our Divine Faculties for  Discernment. Mother Earth is aligning us to stand up straight. A Divine Father is raining Light upon us for the last growth spurt before the Harvest. Signs of Synchronicity have raised our Consciousness to a Harvest of Spirit.

The Author of Lies grasps at one last chance to knock us off our feet. There is always some Truth in every lie, for those who want to believe. At the Altar of Reed/BEN we Ask the Creator to bring us to our knees.

 

The Divine witness to every moment knows all our excuses. Instead of recounting failures, we can count the times we’ve been saved from our Self.

Reed/BEN embodies the Element of Fire to burn the flesh away from the bone. Reed is the “hollow bone,” an open channel for the Communion of Spirits.

The Creator’s offering is always Good. We forget the burden that’s been lifted by a Power of Divine Trinity. Imagine how much heavier the burden must be for those who don’t have One Leg to stand on.

Symbols 12:12 and 24:24
12 Reed/BEN in the 12th uinal, and 07/24 in 2024, represents the symbols 12:12 and 24:24. The Seed we planted with Loving Intention in  the Spring is coming to Harvest. There is always some doubts and fears in the final hours. Our last fear is wondering if the Darkness will ever end. Wind represents the Acts of God that are out of our hands.

Tone 12 is the “end” from the beginning, the Intention to Understand the Truth. Truth is shared from Above when we’ve witnessed enough Truth to Comprehend “what it means.”

A mystery is solved on Tone 12. On Tone 13 we Ascend to a Higher Point of View. When our doubts and fears are swept away, we leave an old matter in the past. We Ascend on 13 Jaguar/IX. When we are transformed into pure spirit, our footprints will be all that’s left behind.

Reed/BEN holds Position 13, a symbol of the Answer to our Prayer to Stand in Right Relationship with the Master of Everything. The tradition on Reed/BEN is to love your neighbor as yourself. It can be as simple as calling to say “how are you?”

Reed/BEN is the Blessing of Belonging that we were intended to experience as “home.” In a Sanctuary Within, a Divine Creator can lead us to our own reality of Peace on Earth.

God creates a Way when there seems to be no way.

Isaiah 43:18-19
“Do not remember the former things, Nor consider the things of old. Behold, I will do a new thing, Now it shall spring forth; Shall you not know it? I will even make a road in the wilderness And rivers in the desert.

love, in lak’ech, i am another you

THE JAGUAR’S MAGIC OF GRATITUDE:
I’m grateful for Miracles of Love.

A RITUAL AND SACRED CEREMONY OF GRATITUDE: JOURNEY BEGINNING JULY 5, 2024, 6 JAGUAR/IX
This is a good time to re-dedicate our self to a purpose of counting our blessings every day until the next Jaguar/IX.

July 25, 2024 is 13 Jaguar/IX, the symbol of an Answer to a Prayer of Spirit.
We can reflect on our Highest Hopes and Dreams, and Give thanks for the Day that is the story of the end. We can count our blessings 3 times, morning, noon, and night, and apply the Truth of Yesterday, Today, to Create Tomorrow.

Another Synchronicity: July 25, 2024, 13 Jaguar/IX, is the Feast Day for “Saint James the Great” by Western Christian traditions. James was a demonstration of overcoming afflictions.

James’ affliction was being lame. His doubts and fears at the beginning were about how he could raise the faith for healing others while he was still broken. Our Human limitations don’t define who we are, but the choices we make in spite of them.

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. 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 Mayan date before.

12 Reed/BEN (Cherokee, Reed/ I’HYA) – Day 12 of 13 of the 1 Wind/IK trecena

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

Galactic Tone 12: Understanding. This number’s energy is a gift of great capability, of retrospection. It is this ability that allows Twelve to connect disassociated parts into a (new) functioning whole. The energy of Twelve is that which presents a new piece of understood information or accumulated experience to be applied.

Reed/BEN: Reed persons are the spiritual essence, protectors and guiding light for family and home. They are competent speakers who will take up a cause. Very tough and analytical, Reeds endeavor to bring peace, harmony and order to all o their relations. Reeds are blessed with great skill at negotiations and consoling which are very often put to the test. Although Reeds need a lot of appreciation, may have marriage or business problems because of inflexible vies and high expectations, which erode affinity. The lesson for Reed is to be like a garden hose, not a steel pipe. Bless or repair your house.

A GOOD DAY TO: Bless and repair your house. 

Cherokee, Reed/I’HYA: REED- Symbol-Reed is the Earth, reflection of the Star Chaga of Pollux. Reed made up the Magician Twins who led the journey to bring back to life the daughter of the Sun. The Casket is Gemini. Energy for Intellectual minds, creation, re-creation, new directions, breaking the ties that bind.  A trailblazer and leader. From the East, direction of success and happiness, no matter what route is taken, always ending up in the Light.
