A Connection to the Light
The Holy Spirit resides in a Sanctuary within. When we lean not to our own understanding, our heart and mind is opened to receive the Truth. To hear the Truth we must become the “hollow bone” with all the flesh burned away.
BEN represents the transformation that happens when we become the leader of a family. We learn to walk the walk to become a good example to the next generation. Children are sages. They don’t miss a thing.
We’re inclined to share our wisdom. The Children are our hope for the future. Yet, we resist letting them learn their own way in a New World.
God’s Word is the only Truth that will stand forever. To teach integrity we have to stand on our own word. To teach Faith we need to believe in our own prayers. When we kneel at an altar, we demonstrate one way that never fails.

10 Reed / BEN
Greetings Beloved Kin,
We don’t know what we’re doing. By the time we think we’re grown up, we’ve outgrown an old way. We learn more from our parents about what we would change if we were in charge, convinced ours will be a better way.
I was inclined to over-compensate for what I saw as my parents failures. It takes Time to see the effects of change. I could have sworn I was doing it right.
To be honest, we have to share the Truth of our own limitations. Only Jesus was perfect. Forgiveness is the Love that ties the binds of family. “Home” is the place where everyone deserves an equal place at the table.
Reed/BEN is a Day to Bless the Home. It’s still a tradition in the Maya lands to call on the neighbors on Reed/BEN. We feel like family when someone takes 5 minutes to see how we’re doing. Family is a circle of Trust. When we treat neighbors like family, a door to “home” will be open.
Tone 10 holds the Intention of Manifestation. The power to manifest our Highest Potential depends on a Hand Above (5) and a Hand Below (5). Reed/BEN holds Position 13, the symbol of Answered Prayers.
Proverbs 16:9 NIV
9 In their hearts humans plan their course,
but the Lord establishes their steps.
James 4:14 KJV
14 Whereas ye know not what shall be on the morrow. For what is your life? It is even a vapour, that appeareth for a little time, and then vanisheth away.
For all our little plans, only God knows what tomorrow brings. God’s plan is always better than our own. It’s good to have plans, as long as we surrender to the “way things are.”
The glyph illustrates two channels of Light shining down on an altar. Below are two prayer mats for two to kneel as one. Everyone who kneels is equal to every other by the Grace of God. God is making a way.
Look for the Signs that God is leading you, and search yourself for the Intention to follow.
To manifest creation we have to claim the Truth. We don’t have to “conjure” the reality. God REVEALS the Truth of our Reality so we can claim the Truth. The Truth “that is” leads us to Holy Ground.
We are like “gods” for a little while. I remember when my son was about 7 years old he asked me about a full moon. I explained how it works. He said, “Mom – How do you know all this stuff?” Instead of proving how smart we are, we need to encourage how much more our children will know someday. We’d do better living up to their example.
We have to teach our children it’s okay to take flight. It’s okay to make our own choices no matter how different we may be. The Truth is that every life in every Time and Place is a different story. Failures are guaranteed, but we always learn the hard way. When we Love without conditions and forgive, God promises to complete our Heart’s Desire for Right Relationship.
Isaiah 43:19 KJV
19 Behold, I will do a new thing; now it shall spring forth; shall ye not know it? I will even make a way in the wilderness, and rivers in the desert.
God promised a New Life. God will make a way for every generation.
much love, in lak’ech, i am another you

10 Reed/BEN, Cherokee, Reed/I’HYA – Day 10 of 13 of the 1 Seed/KAN trecena
Descriptions by Ian Xel Lungold (12 Sun/AHAU), wisdom and Free Calculator preserved on MayanMajix.com
Galactic Tone 10: Manifestation. What were once intentions or ideas, hopes or fears become physically present with the energy of Ten. What is focused upon with attention and intention becomes real with Ten. Ten is a powerful energy that carries a great responsibility.
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. (And a day to love your neighbors as your self.)
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.
