THE TRECENA OF NIGHT/AKBAL: DREAMS ARE TRUE
Greetings Beloved Kin,
The Intention of the Night/AKBAL trecena is to lift the veil of a Mystery that is the Truth of our Dreams. In our Dreams we exist in a realm Above in Communion with a Divine Creator that speaks to us through the Signs and Symbols of our Dreams. The Book of Revelations includes the Visions that St John received in his Dreams. Our Dreams are Truths that are intended to be Unseen Mysteries, only to be revealed as Truth that’s Seen when it’s the Creator’s Divine Time for everyone to know. We were prepared to know what is intended to be hidden through the Wisdom of the Jaguar.
A Divine Creator’s mysteries revealed as Dreams we Understand (ie. know exactly what they mean) is hidden knowledge. By Human Nature, we want to know everything. Then, our Ego wants to share everything we know. There is such a thing as knowing too much for our own good. Those are the mysteries that are not meant to be revealed, but held under a cover of stealth until it’s Divine Time, when the Creator reveals the Truth.
Our Ascension from the Night/AKBAL trecena is knowing what was revealed in our Dreams that’s only for us to know. To know the Divine Mysteries, the Truth Known to the Highest One, we need the Wisdom to preserve the Truth that’s intended to be hidden beyond the veil. The Elders said that we are not intended to run and share our Spiritual Experiences, but to “hold the power” of knowing for a time until we Understand what they mean. By their nature of signs and symbols, no one else will understand. They didn’t see the signs and we can’t convey the signs we only understood through the memories of our own Dreams. It’s the same with Divine Inspiration, when it comes to “holding your power.” Did you ever have a wild idea that felt like pure genius, only to share it with someone else who “rains on your parade?” They diminish the experience, and we begin to question what we KNEW. We can lose the Vision of a Dream that was meant to come true. The good news is the Creator will save it until we’re prepared to know it again, and hold the Vision until the Truth becomes self-evident.
If you had a vision in your AKBAL Dreams, hold it close to your heart and “more shall be revealed.” The intention of the Light is to guide you through the darkness to the end of your dreams. Walk in stealth by the Light that was revealed from beyond the veil.

THE TRECENA OF NIGHT/AKBAL: DREAMS ARE THE TRUTH
13 Eagle / MEN
Greetings Kin,
13 Eagle/MEN is the Guardian of the 3rd Season of the Tzolk’in. We are a New Seed planted at the beginning of each Tzolk’in round.
The 1st Season is the Dawn of a New Awakening, seeing our “New Self” creating a New Life, New Ways. In the 2nd Season we begin a New Life, raised to Maturity. We learned to love someone else more than our self. Unconditional Love was born through our children and Love multiplied.
In the Core Days, we dreamed a dream for the children. Like a caterpillar, we dissolved all the strongholds that held us back, to choose what would be perfect for them. That is the last Human climb for the Seed. Once Love multiplies, the Power is Held from Above through our Divine Design – only with one exponential factor, One Divine Provision that covers every Human limitation.
COMPLETING THE 3RD SEASON
By Divine Intervention, we were guided by the Dog to live the dream we were creating as our Divine Inheritance. It looked like the gift a Dog brings home, when we’ve seen the Highest Demonstration of Unconditional Love – as our Master, Best Friend, and Leader of the Whole Pack. We also realized that the dream we were leaving for the children was OUR own Dream for our Self. It IS STILL OURS to Create. In our AKBAL Dreams we were initiated into the Truth of NEW possibilities. We don’t know where they may lead, but NOW it feels like LIVING.
13 Eagle/MEN completes the AKBAL Dream with a Divine Vision of the Future, that we can see from MILES away like the Brightest Star and it’s WHO WE ARE NOW somewhere in the future, looking back – can’t wait for us to get there to know the Truth Together. It’s our Jaguar Spirit that can also be in two places at the same time. NOW we can look down at our own feet and follow where our Heart tells them to go.
On the 13, the symbol of Answered Prayers, we stand at the threshold of a new experience of LIVING. We WANT to try again, or start all over with EVERYTHING New. Inspired by Impossible Dreams, we saw they were True about us, and the Divine Power of Love held in our own Hands. We couldn’t imagine what could be greater than to stand for our Self, just like we are. We can’t wait to see where the changes may lead.

THE TRECENA OF NIGHT/AKBAL: DREAMS ARE TRUE
MAYAN CALENDAR DAYKEEPER’S JOURNAL
13 Eagle / MEN
Greetings Kin,
On Tone 13 we’re raised to Higher Ground. As the number of theurgy, 13 represents a power given to Human Beings to call on Divine Agency through our rituals and ceremonies to intervene in human affairs. 13 is the number of Answered Prayer.
Tone 13 is an initiation of Truth seen from a Higher Perspective that compels us to want to try again or begin something new. From a new summit we see Higher Horizons ahead, and the Truth that a New Life is ours to claim. Ascension is a commencement to a New Experience, holding Higher Wisdom of the Truth.
Eagle/MEN is the Day Sign of an Intermediary. AKBAL guided us in our Dreams to see the Light that is always shining for us in the darkness. We are never out of the Creator’s sight. ALL our Time was given with a Divine Meaning and Purpose. Miracles CAN happen in our Dreams. A Supreme Creator created a place where we could believe anything is possible.
The Great Law of Creation is “As Above, So Below.” Every Ascension is a Transformation based on the Higher Ground we claimed before. The Dog/OC and the Monkey/CHUEN guided the Wisdom to see that Love was ours to Create. AKBAL inspired Divine Dreams that we could Imagine, directly given from the One Above.
A Divine Light saw the Beauty in us when we couldn’t see it in our Self. The Elders say all things want to be Seen and Acknowledged. In our AKBAL Dreams we found a Divine Witness who Sees and Acknowledges our Beauty from the Beginning to the End. Believing in our Dreams is easy when we Know a Divine Creator Loves them too.
Eagle/MEN guides our Highest Hopes and Highest Aspirations. Sharing a view from the Highest Proximity to the One Above, we can see a direct path to our Dream without any of the obstacles we saw below. Knowing the Creator’s Love, the only reason we have to wait on our Dreams is we forget to let them go. When we let go of Human’s Will for the ending, we draw back the veil on a whole realm of Higher Possibilities. It isn’t so hard to believe that a Divine Creator of Beauty holds a Higher Miracle of Love.
MEN resides in the West, the direction of the Unknown Future, with the Vision to See what lies ahead. The Eagle flies by Intuition. It doesn’t need to see the whole picture, just a speck of a distinctive color. To fly by Intuition, the Eagle marks the spot and takes off, never looking away from a Light at the end. The Eagle falls and lets the Wind catch its wings, then leans into the Truth it sees.
Raised by the Truth of Love as the Divine Intention for every end, the Eagle isn’t afraid of the Truth. The Eagle leans in as the Dreamer that believes in the Dream, and the Truth that will lead the way.
THE TRECENA OF NIGHT/AKBAL
MAYAN CALENDAR DAYKEEPER’S JOURNAL
13 Eagle / MEN
Greetings Kin,
We Ascend on Eagle’s wings to Higher Ground, up Above where there are no obstacles seen between our Point A and Point B. Life and Love look different soaring above all the obstacles that human sees on the “hard road” below. There’s a flight path in the up Above that leads directly to the Divine Prize. The Pure Essence of Eagle’s perspective is to see a way forward to a Divine Place, holding the same image to the end. Eagle is revered for the Highest Flight in proximity of Heaven on Earth.
We are flying through the 10th uinal of Manifestation. God intends for all our Dreams to Be claimed as True. We are carried by an Intermediary of Divine Agency. Eagle shares the clarity of vision to see what it wants up to 1.9 miles away, and seeing only a speck of it, sees enough to mark the spot. Then the Eagle takes the Leap into thin air and leans into the Wind.
Everything an Eagle can see lies within its grasp. All our Hopes and Dreams are presented to us along with the Feelings, Holding the Dream and Feeling the Truth it was meant to be, the Wind that holds an eternal promise will guide us there.
We are Ascending to an important cycle of Life that is a Time of Knowing and Believing everything we saw in our Dream. Eagle’s way of leaning into the Wind is to follow the path of Truth that is shared with crystal clarity. The Truth about Love will guide the way to our Dream.
We were given a Divine Road paved by Love where we would carry it on to Higher Ground. On Eagle’s wings we’ll pave a way to the Highest Harvest of Love we can See and Know. The Eagle flies by Intuition, taking a Divine Leap of Faith, leaning into the Truth of the Wind, the only thing the Eagle sees is the “X” that marks the spot. In a new journey, we hold the Truth of Love that is the Divine start for every new beginning – never a Human plan for such a Divine End.
When Dreams and Miracles are Born they are first Seen and Defined as the Treasure that they were meant to be. Through an Offering, we learned the best Human way is to give it all back – to not spend a nickel of the treasure so that God has ALL of it to use for the Most Divine End. The Love of Everything divinely grows the more we are willing to take our Time to Discern the Whole Light of a Gift of Divine Beauty. A human mind could reason, if we thought about it. When Love brings a man and woman together the Act of Oneness opens the door to a Miracle of Life. Love should always be proven Divine and True to share every Communion of Love. Love is just as Beautiful and Divine, shared between our Hearts. The Passion that hurts to feel, is doubled love from two hearts that are Feeling it together. Waiting will be Divine when we Know our Hearts are connected to the same Divine Source of Happiness.
Tone 13 resolves the Truth of Higher Consciousness and the prayer for Love that could carry us to the stars. On Tone 13 we KNOW we’ve been changed by the Answer to a Prayer. Flying up above, we see the Truth of Love from a Higher Summit. Our Hearts see an even Higher Way for Love to be Divine. We could be the Human willing to Hold it and Feel it, so there is Time to see the Whole Light of Love others could know as Light rippling through the Whole. We are raised to the Highest State of Consciousness to begin connected to the Consciousness of ALL Time. We are Connected to share the Love back to the Beginning of Time.
13 Eagle/MEN offers a Vision of the Highest Meaning and Purpose for our Love To Be. Human’s sacrifice its greatest treasure to share with the Whole through a NAME! and a Voice that we Love and remember. We’ll FEEL love long enough to be found and given it back. We are the living who hold all the Power to create Love back to the Beginning of Time. We have all the Light we need. God knows the way. We took off like and Eagle and we only need an “X” to mark the spot of Higher Love.

13 Eagle / MEN
Greetings Kin,
On 13 Eagle/MEN we take Flight toward a Dream we can see in the Future. Taking on our Eagle Identity, we know that whatever we can See lies within our Grasp.
We were guided to our Highest Dream of what a Divine Human Being could be. In the 10 uinal our Ascension is a Manifestation of Identity. Today we are lifted up from the world to see the clear path from Point A to Point B. We know we can follow a journey toward a Vision that we have seen of our own “Consciousness Possibilities.”
On the Tone 13 of Ascension, the force of Transformation crashes like a wave. We know Power we can claim and are ready to try again. Today we know we’ve seen the Highest Vision we could hold for a new generation. We see how from the other side of the experience, we could be the Divine Intermediaries that help them remember.
Eagle/MEN inspires Human’s Highest Hopes and Aspirations. On the Tone 13 we are connected through the magic of theurgy in a Divine Communion. This is the Day of Answered Prayer made possible by ritual and ceremony. We offered our self to a Divine Dream, asking to know what the Creator meant for us to know.
We are lifted Above by a Divine Intermediary so we can see something for our Self. We are the Children of the Creator, the all-in-one. All the Divine Perspectives that guide us as the Archetypes of the Tzolk’in are the pieces and parts of who we are. Our Divine Human Identity is found knowing we are all these things, through a Choice of Human Will.
We ARE the thoughts we consciously choose. We ARE NOT the thoughts that drift along. We are Spirit and Body made Divine AND Holy when we choose Divine and Holy journeys of thought. We are led through the Transformation and led through the rest of the Tzolk’in round by a Divine Agency of Intervention. We were given the Dream of Light to carry into the world, by the words and thoughts of the Ancestors we gave a place to Live in Us. We created a Trinity by our own Intention, to join with a Trinity Above to form the Nth Power of Love.
Every Ascension is built on the Higher Ground of the last. Eagle always looks Forward. Today instead of remembering where we came from, we look to the future where we can go. On the Sacred Wind we can draw the Breath of Divine Thoughts and crystallize the Beauty within our Grasp – to Have and to Hold – no matter how High it may seem, we Grasp what we See in the Realm of Spirit.
Eagle/MEN lies in the West, the place of all our Unknown Journeys. Eagle/MEN moves our Heart toward a Vision of our Highest Aspirations.
The only shadow of Eagle is flying away. All Time has a meaning and purpose. This was the Time for us to Know how to Create Reality from the realm of Spirit. We learned that a Divine Agency was with us and through a Divine Inheritance, alive in our Consciousness. My heart has been broken by children. Everything in me wants to Humanly run to their aid, and I will do everything I can to be heard. I see how I could fly away from the journey to thoughts of despair, so far from anything I want to believe about humanity.
I believe in us. Knowing we are together applying every human effort of choice to the Creation of Justice for the Whole, I can believe the same is still True of the Whole. The world is only drifting thoughts. We will still see the Divinity of every Human Being, with every Conscious thought. Because we are ALL Divine, our Conscious thoughts ARE Divine.
Today we can offer our self a gift of Ascension. Bring something from the Dream back into the realm Below. Bundle a thought, ashes from smudging, a pinch of dirt, a piece of yourself in a small piece of red cloth and tie it up. It may become part of your own medicine bundle that holds sacred memories of the journey.
The Eagle flies by Intuition. Eagle focuses on what it wants and takes off. We can create an “X” that marks the spot of our Highest Dream of Love, a Symbol of a Divine thought, and take off with our eyes trained on the prize.
To all my relations, may we offer our Gratitude and Claim we hold the thoughts to lead a Divine Dream for the Whole. May we give thanks for the Divinity within our Self to lead a charge of Divine Thoughts that don’t fly away, but reach even Higher with every Darkness that appears. May we remember our Inheritance are Divine Thoughts and Truth that given Life in our Consciousness.
May we remember all the Signs and Symbols that mark this as a very important Time in Human history. May we offer the illusion of impossibility up to the Creator’s hand and lead a way for Life, Love, and Happiness – in Harmony and Equity for the Whole. May our “X” be the Salvation for all God’s Children. May we Believe in Transformation, as we have been Transformed by Divine thoughts.
“Then it clearly manifested, while they were praying that by the dawn, the man must appear. So then they arranged the creation and the trees growing, and the creeping wild plants, and the life was born and the human creation. It was arranged like that in the darkness and in the night by the Heaven’s Heart, named Hurricane.”

Galactic Tone 13: Ascension; Thirteen assists us to go to the next higher step, propels us to try something new or to try again. Thirteen energy takes us over the next mountain just to see what is there. Thirteen carries the last success to the newest effort. Thirteen is a number associated with the Ascended Masters, creation, expansion, and manifestation.
Eagle/MEN: Intermediary between Heaven and Earth. Due to the Eagles superior point of view and keen intelligence, they achieve material abundance and good fortune. A messenger gifted with patience and a deep sense of value, Eagle brings hope and trust on the wings of Spirit. Eagle persons are very detail oriented and technically inclined. Compassionate service to others sustains prosperity for Eagle personas as the flapping of wings would sustain their bird brothers. If Eagle becomes viciously competitive or possessive, greed and jealousy cause a fall from the heights. Eagles, being blessed with freedom of movement, should be aware of escapism. Eagles may be tempted to just fly away from troubles by using indulgences.
Cherokee, Eagle/UWO’HATLI: Eagle’s symbol is Mars the Spirit Warrior. He is a minion of Grandfather Moon. Eagles were the warrior society, the braves the protectors of the nation. Women were included. There was no discrimination which is reflected in the language: third person singular is divided into animate, human and animate, not human instead of he and she. The energy of high hopes and anticipations, dreams and visions, cosmic consciousness and commitment. On earth, a provider of excellence, leader, husbandry, care-taking of others, financial security and inheritance.

13 Eagle / MEN
Greetings Kin,
Today we Celebrate a new Ascension of Consciousness. The AKBAL trecena drew our Deepest Dreams for Happiness and Harmony from our Unconsciousness to our Conscious Mind. AKBAL helped us to Hear the Voice that calls us to the Dream. Through a Higher Consciousness of our Dream, our Love of it triggered the fear that was hidden, and the illusion of Powerlessness that prevented us from ever reaching for it. Connecting our Mind and Spirit, AKBAL helped us see the Truth of the Creator’s Promise to Intervene on any Dream we would Choose to manifest together.
13 Eagle/MEN has been the Guardian of the “Spring” season of this 260-day Tzolk’in harvest cycle of Human Transformation. The Ending promised from the beginning of the Creation Season of this Tzolk’in round, was that from a Higher Perspective we would see our Dream already manifested in our Future. Tone 13 is the number of theurgy, representing the mystical Promise between the Above and the Below, that the Creator hears our prayers when we set aside a Sacred Time and Place for ritual and ceremony. In the Intention of our Vision Quest, we were promised from the beginning the Divine Justice of a Spiritual Vision.
Now Human must “bear the time” to see a Miracle that was created in Spirit, manifested on Earth as the Fruit of our Spirit.
Eagle/MEN is the Day Sign of the Intermediary. The Eagle lifts us up to the realm of Spirit, revered as the Living Creation on Earth with the Wings to fly closest to the Creator. Eagle Knows that we have to see the Vision for our Self and provides the service of a perspective that reveals the direct path from Point A to Point B. Realizing our Journey of Creation is made in the realm of Spirit, all the obstacles we would stumble over as Human no longer apply. Our Spirit has its own Wings in the Intention of our Dreams.
VISION QUEST: DAY 13
The invitation and introduction is offered on the journal post for 1 Night/AKBAL. Suggestions for daily practice are offered on the Vision Quest Ceremony page.

Greetings Kin,
Today we Celebrate an Ascension of new possibility. On Tone 13 we Ascend with a Higher Consciousness of the Light that shines in the darkness. By focusing on the Light, we gain the willingness and courage to face the Darkness of our Unknown.
Eagle/MEN is the Intermediary that lifts us up to see what we couldn’t see from the ground. From a Higher Perspective we can focus on the future as it was planned by a Divine Creator of Unconditional Love. We could see that any obstacle we find in our path was not the Intention of the Creator. Nor are we to see the obstacles in our life as unfair. We are never challenged by anything that we are not capable to overcome.
Eagle/MEN demonstrates its way of fulfilling a dream is to look far off into the distance, instead of being distracted by what we see “up close.” Eagle demonstrates that if we single-mindedly fix our mind on what we hope to grasp, we can rely on the navigation of Divine Spirit to get there. What we see up close is only temporary, appearing as the chaos of change.
The way of conquering our fear is through Faith. “Faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen.” The intention of the AKBAL trecena was to offer an experience, a Truth of Spirit we can hang onto. Eagle/MEN calls for our Highest Aspirations with Faith in a Promise that we will be guided there by Divine Intervention.
