THE TRECENA OF REED/BEN: CREATING A SANCTUARY

MAYAN CALENDAR DAYKEEPER’S JOURNAL

4 Wisdom / CIB

Greetings Kin,

Tone 4 raises the Intention of Stability. We had an idea for the Creation of Love in Harmony, to create the Place where we Belong. Tone 3 offered the Divine Inspiration of Possibility. We saw something we could move on to improve the Happiness in our own life, investing Time to show someone else they belong.

3 Eagle/MEN gave us  the Vision to lock into the Light of the Dream. We’re grasping at the speck of an idea for Love. On Tone 4, we’re trying to hold on to the Intention, to Remember so the Dream won’t slip away.

Tone 4 is represented by the cube, and the area within that’s defined by its borders and parameters. On Tone 4 we create a mental construct for a body of thought. In the climb for Higher  Consciousness we do it by defining the thoughts we will hold in our Sanctuary. A Sanctuary is the perfect place of retreat, where Love always waits in Divine Communion. It’s hard to see that it is Real, because it is “invisible.” Yet, like the Eagle’s eye, we have a vision – a speck of the Truth. The Speck is the Divine Light that is our Faith to Believe. Believing in Love is a Beautiful Light. We might remember how we are Humbled by the Light of Love. Like the Deer’s Gift of Harmonic Resonance, when someone only sees the Light in us, we go along, to Shine in the Moment of being Seen and Acknowledged.

We can hold on to our Intention to Love by creating the Rules of the Game. We can turn away the darkness that can interrupt a Divine train of thought by choosing in advance, which thoughts belong. We are making a choice for the future that we will carry out here and now on behalf of the whole. It’s only for a Time, to see what we can learn. There will be more choices. Every choice doesn’t  have to be the end-all, only one step in the right direction.

Wisdom/CIB connects us to the Ascended Masters and the Wisdom of the Ages. Our thoughts are drawn to the family of us all. It’s a day to honor the wisdom that was preserved for us and passed down as our Divine Inheritance. It’s a day to remember the Higher Ground created for Us by those who came before, who also walked “the hard road.” To honor Wisdom, we pay attention like we don’t already know everything. We take the Truth to heart that was learned in a proven and worthy way, through the experience of Blood, Sweat, and Tears. Wisdom doesn’t come easy. CIB teaches us the way by looking ahead and behind to make Choices that are Wise.

It’s easier to make a Wise Choice than it is to decide if a choice will lead us in the right or wrong direction. We can usually figure out the “next right thing.” Sometimes, it’s doing the dishes. When we don’t know one thing, that’s a Truth. It isn’t wise to move on something we can’t see. We don’t have to, when we have the wisdom to USE THE TIME for Patience to see a bigger picture. There’s always a Divine Meaning for Time, when Time is applied to See and Know more about anything we care about.

CIB’s totem is the Owl, the mystical ferryman that holds a torch aloft and guides the journey to the “otherside.” The fare for passage is Forgiveness. To move on over to the otherside of Life, we must let go of all the worldly matters of the past. By Egyptian myth, the heart must be as light as a feather. The Owl is a symbol of the transition from Life to Death. We can ascend to a Higher Life when we let the old one go. It’s finished. All the choices we made were based on a set of circumstances that was “then.” This is NOW. The Owl has eyes like an Eagle, with  the Power to see what’s behind and to see through the darkness.

THE TRECENA OF REED/BEN, A GUIDING LIGHT

4 Wisdom / CIB

Greetings Kin,

The 4th Tone of Creation is Stability. Tone 4 is compared to the cube, a dimension defined by borders and parameters. Whenever we choose to move forward on an Intention to create, our next inherent thoughts are to get a grasp on the circumstances. If we’re Wise, we look at a map before we take any journey. We can choose the shortest way, or we can take the scenic route. On Tone 4 we establish the “rules of the game.”

On a journey of Divine Evolution, we can choose a course for our thoughts in advance. We can build a foundation as our own pillars of Faith to stand when we face the Unknown. To Move to a Higher State of Consciousness, we choose thoughts that will lead to the desired ending. In a world below, we move by taking one step after another. Above, our Spirit Rises one Divine thought at a time that we can experience and claim as the Truth. The Higher our Truth, the more Divine are the possibilities. We know where Human thoughts can lead. And, we can Remember, that Divine thoughts always lead Faith to Believing.

Wisdom/CIB connects us to the Wisdom of the Ages. CIB represents the Collective Wisdom of Humanity, and our own Wisdom of Experience. CIB reminds us that the past is an archaeological treasure for Wisdom that leads a Divine Way. CIB resides in the South, the direction of our Relationships with one another and the Natural World. CIB guides us to the Wisdom of Right Relationship.

CIB shares the “Key to the Kingdom” as Forgiveness. We can only see the Whole Truth by looking beyond the circumstances of Time. We are all on our own path and in our own back and forth movement between the darkness and the Light of Truth our Heart can Believe. As we look ahead, we might consider the Wisdom of our own past. There’s Times when we Feel the Light of Truth and Times when we Feel there’s no hope in sight. If we apply the Wisdom of our own Truth, sometimes we are Brighter than others. The Truth is in our Intention to be. Human will always express the Truth of our limitations, where our Faith turns to Fear.

Eagle/MEN shared the Vision to See the Light in our Future and the direct course from point A to point B. The Owl expands our Vision with the Gift to see through the darkness. Wisdom/CIB sees the darkness on the way to the Unknown. We can plan now for the Human limitation of forgetting. Our Faith is challenged the farther we turn from the way Human sees to the way our Spirit Believes. Human isn’t satisfied until we know all the answers, even before we know the questions. The first time we run into an unexpected Truth, we can forget. We need a plan to get through it. CIB’s strategy is to turn to the Wisdom of the Past to keep moving forward.

THE TRECENA OF REED/BEN

MAYAN CALENDAR DAYKEEPER’S JOURNAL

Greetings Kin,

Tone 4 holds the Intention of Stability. Like the cube, the most stable of forms, 4 creates dimension, boundaries, and parameters. Tone 4 offers an orientation and “rules of the game.” Tone 4 establishes our solid ground for Spiritual Discernment.

Wisdom/CIB is the Day Sign of the Old Ones, the Wise ones who preserved a Divine Path to follow. They made the same climb, reaching for their Highest Aspirations. Our collective experiences are recorded eternally in the One Divine Mind. Wisdom/CIB connects us to this Wisdom, and a Personal Relationship with our Guidance Up Above, All Around, and Down Below.

This is a day to Honor the Ancestors and heed their advice. Everything they teach us will be for our own Good along the journey to our Dream. This is a day to Pray for Wise Counsel and those who have shared their Wise Discernment with us.

Eagle/MEN carried us far into the darkness of our Future. Darkness is the place where the Owl can see the best. Owl can turn our head around to find Wisdom within our Self. Owl helps us to Discern what Human has never seen, to look for. We have to establish our own Truth and Way. CIB’s way Honors all the Wisdom of Humanity. When the student is ready to Receive, the Teacher Appears.

The glyph illustrates the Mind in its state of Highest Consciousness. Emanating from the head are the rays of Illumination and Forgiveness. The Ancestors will show us how one depends on the other. They offer the “Keys to the Kingdom” of Spirit.
