The Guiding Light Within

THE TRECENA OF REED/BEN: THE SANCTUARY OF HOME
MAYAN CALENDAR DAYKEEPER’S JOURNAL

Greetings Beloved Kin,

The Offering of Redemption is the path that carries us back to the beginning. Reed/BEN symbolizes a channel for the Communion of Spirit as the “hollow bone.” To open the way, the flesh must be burned away from the bone.

The glyph illustrates the altar of a  Sanctuary within, with 2 channels of Light. Below are the thatched prayer mats for 2 to kneel as 1. We are in position to receive the highest blessing when our prayers for the highest good for our self and one another.

We are redeemed by the Light when we kneel in humility to our Human limitations, and reach for a Power Greater than our self. 1 Reed/BEN falls in synchronicity with the celebration of Yom Kippur that is completed at sunset, October 12, 2024. We can take heart that millions are down on their knees.

By Mayan tradition BEN is a Day to bless or repair our home and to check in on the neighbors. BEN is the Blessing of a Place where we always belong. “Charity begins at home.” When we offer the Service of Love to our neighbor, a door will be open where we treat others like family. It only takes a call to ask, “how are you?” “Family” doesn’t have to be entertained when we drop by to lend a hand without any expectations.

Reed/BEN reminds us to lead the family with a “garden hose” and not a “steel pipe.” BEN is the intention to walk the walk when we create a family and love someone else more than we love our self. We want to share the wisdom we’ve learned along the way. The Truth of the Highest Order is the promise of Answered Prayers.

We can’t beat our Truth into someone else’s head. If we truly believe in Answered Prayers we can stand in Faith for the Prayers we offer for those we love. Times change. Children are our hope for the future. They will face a new set of circumstances and we can pray they’ll find a better way. We can learn as much or more from the children, when we listen to the Truth they share without a filter.

 

BEN is the “home” where everyone holds an equal place around the table. By Divine Design a family was a provision that was intended to be. There’s a Divine Provision for every Human limitation. The Creator can lead us to a “home” that lasts forever by the Light that shines in a Sanctuary within.

Reed/BEN holds Position 13, a symbol of our Ascension carried out as the Answer to our prayers. On Yom Kippur we’re reminded that Forgiveness is the Key to the Kingdom.

13-Day Forecast

A CYCLE OF LIGHT
Red and Blue Day signs represent Days and cycles of Light. Time is ordered to Receive the Light of Divine Inspiration. It takes about 3 weeks to create a habit. The “God with us” will stay forever if we carry on the Service of Love we offered on behalf of the Highest One. May we continue to be present to Give Back and Pay Forward through our Choices to Love the Creator with all our heart, and to share the blessings of our own Faith with the whole. The Love we return to the Highest One will be shared in Harmony with the Whole.

THE HOLY DAY OF JUSTICE
Tone 8 is the Holy Day of every 13-day cycle of Creation as the Zenith hour of Light. 8 Sun/AHAU, October 19, 2024, represents the Supreme Lord of Creation shining it’s Brightest Light. The observance is a private ceremony held from a Sanctuary within, where we see and acknowledge everyone who prays for a seat at the table. The 3rd uinial of a Divine Movement of Spirit is completed by the Creator’s Hand. Number 19 represents the “signature of God.” The Creator’s signature is the creation of Beauty.

THE END OF THE 1ST SEASON
The 1st Season completes the Truth of our “I Am” and the Truth of our Highest Meaning and Purpose to be. In the 2nd Season, Faith is the Living Water that will help us grow to Maturity to Dream our Highest Dream for the Whole. Our Tree of Life will grow with the Power to Multiply a Dream that was written in our Seed of Life. Living Water will flow from our roots to the Leaves that gather the Light from Above.

THE 4TH UINAL OF STABILITY
9 Crococdile/IMIX begins the 4th uinal of stability. From the Heart of the Primordial Mother we claim Higher Ground. IMIX offers “wild ideas” out of the blue that are shared from Above, with the Compassion that supports our Divine Discernment of the Truth. IMIX is the Alpha, the beginning of all things Divine that were Offered from the Omega of Sun/AHAU.

THE GUARDIAN OF THE CYCLE
1 Reed/BEN opened our Channel of Light. 13 Serpent/CHICCHAN is the end planned from the beginning. Our Ascension and the Answer to our Prayer will be the Gift of “lightning in the blood.” We will be electrified by the Light of the Creator to Feel the Truth as the Quickening of our Spirit. The Full Hunter’s Moon, October 17, 2024, is the symbol of the last harvest before Winter, a “blood sacrifice.” The Light prevails to the last Quarter Moon that falls on 13 Serpent/CHICCHAN, October 24, 2024. CHICCHAN is the kundalini energy that moves from the Sacral Chakra to the Crown. We are intended to take our place at the Creator’s table as One. By the Power of the Holy Spirit we will share the Name as the Scion, as the 1st Descendant, heir to the throne as the Children of God.

The 1st 3 Days

Tone 1 always begins from the energy of inertia. Every climb begins at the bottom of the stairs. Tone 1 and Tone 2 are days that lack the energy to complete any human work. Our Divine Order from Above is to let go of the worries of the world for the Time to be Present and to Dwell in the Light. The Creator will make up the Time on the Tone 3 of Movement, when 3 Eagle/MEN offers a Vision of the Future that lies within our grasp.

May we remember the Whole With Us that are kneeling at an altar in the Creator’s Light that Redeems our Soul. May we claim from the beginning that the Light within will grow with every step we take to reach Higher Ground, as we learned by our own experience from the cycle of Darkness that came before. May we Bless the Home where a Divine Family belongs.

love, in lak’ech, i am another you

Debra, 9 Eagle/MEN

THE JAGUAR’S EARTH MAGIC OF GRATITUDE
I’m grateful for those who shared a Divine Order of Time carved in stone to share our way back home. I’m grateful for those who restored a temple to the Light for those who came before and after. I’m grateful for a Creator who restores the Light within.

1 Reed/BEN (Cherokee, Reed/I’HYA) – Day 1 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 1:  Unity. One is the beginning of all things, the first, the whole and the all in one. One’s are assertive and self-guided and give a good push to whatever project they are associated with. One persons work best when meeting a challenge. Do not expect One-persons to be attentive to details or to put the finishing touches on things.

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.

THIS IS A GOOD DAY (AND A GOOD TRECENA) TO: Bless or 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.
