The Provision of Loving Care
When we are the ones we count on, we are empowered to offer the Gold Standard of Care.
1 Peter 5:7 KJV
7 Casting all your care upon him; for he careth for you.
The trecena of Serpent/CHICCHAN is showering us with stores of Light in synchronicity with the Latest-Possible Harvest Moon. One Day later and the name would be called to the earliest date in September. The Sun is raining Light and energy that passes right through earthly matter. And, it’s happening at a Time when our physical body is accustomed to change as the Light of a New Season reorders our biological clock for the Dreamtime of Winter.
It’s Time to step back to see the Big Picture. What does it mean? What was the Cause that led to an Effect? If we learned anything, we accomplished a purpose. God knows the condition of our Heart.

Greetings Beloved Kin,
Our pain and suffering is the Source of a gift we have to bring. We know how it feels. Tone 9 represents Truth brought to Light that completes the Wisdom of an experience.
When prayer is our last resort, we manifest the Truth to overcome every challenge. The brightest Light of Truth is the Promise of Answered Prayers.
Reed/BEN represents God’s Sanctuary and an altar for 2 to kneel as one. Two beams of Light shine from Above as a Direct Communion for each 1.
God transforms the Darkness into an invisible Light of Understanding. Compassionate Love sends ripples through the whole.
Romans 12:21 NIV
21 Do not be overcome by evil, but overcome evil with good.
God wants to be the Miracle that saves us from our self. CHICCHAN is the Energy of God’s Touch. A Light beyond Human’s range of vision, shines in God’s mysterious way. We can direct the Light of God to all people who suffer the same to offering a blessing in harmony, including our Self. We could bless everyone that stands in our shoes. (Literally, someone else looks down at the same pair of shoes. We have one thing in common.)
We are the best self-caretakers when we mind our own business. We can maintain a compassionate heart for “people who suffer” and remember it applies to everyone.
Isaiah 46:4 NIV
4 Even to your old age and gray hairs
I am he, I am he who will sustain you.
I have made you and I will carry you;
I will sustain you and I will rescue you.
love, in lak’ech, i am another you

The “Tzolk’in Field Guide” is my gift to download that includes the Count of Days with the aspects for each Destiny Kin and highlights for a personal practice with each trecena. It’s designed as a companion for daily practice.
It only takes 13 days to see how Faith is always raised to Knowing the Truth of Answered Prayers. You only have to track your thoughts. Record the matters on your mind in a journal to see how your perspective is changed by a Divine Order of Thoughts.
Visit the 13-Day Trecena Guide. to download a free copy. Volume 1 covers the first two seasons of the Tzolk’in, and Volume 2 covers the 3rd and 4th to the end of the Tzolk’in round.
Serpent/CHICCHAN is the 3nd trecena of the 2nd season of the Tzolk’in round, found in Volume 1. There’s something more to see when you discern the meaning of Time for yourself. The meaning of time is revealed by the thoughts on your mind.
NOTE: Tone 1 reflects the 1st Light of Divine Inspiration as the “legend” of this chapter of Time. If you forget where you are, return to Tone 1 to see the “First Light” of Divine Inspiration. You can use the Tzolk’in calculator to gain insight on any date in the future or the past.
9 Reed/BEN (Cherokee, Reed/I’HYA) – Day 9 of 13 in the trecena of 1 Serpent CHICCHAN
Descriptions by Ian Xel Lungold (12 Sun/AHAU), who’s wisdom and Tzolk’in date calculator is preserved on 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.
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 or repair the home.
Cherokee, Reed/I’HYA: 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.

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.

Today in World Calendar:
Mayan 9 Reed.
Bahai 9 Asma, the 9th day of the 9th time period {out of 19}.
Asma means the Name{s} Form{s} Attributes of God/the Divine.
Jewish 4 Elul. Elul has been described as a Celestial Nest, or as a Heart.
A famous saying is God draws closer to Creation, meeting people where they are at, like the King visiting his people on the field.
4 Rabbi al Awwal. Very literally this means first Spring month {the Islamic Lunar calendar is not fixed, unlike the Jewish one, so it moves perpetually}.
Though Rabbana is Lord in Arabic, and Rabbi, Rebbe is a spiritual teacher in Hebrew and Yiddish.
I like to call it first Teacher.
Or metaphorically first Spring, as in first river springing forth.
In the Name of God, God pours forth a river of Wisdom from their Holy Heart, to reach Earth, and when we pray in God’s Name, we communicate in love and ascend with Reed, to Cross the River into Wisdom.
Thank you, Eleonora – for reminding me of Elul – the King is in the Field! And I appreciate the other calendar insights. much love, in lak’ech, Debra
