RED SPRITES OVER ITALY: You know what comes out of the bottom of a thundercloud: lightning. But do you know what comes out of the top? The answer is sprites. Sometimes when an especially fierce lightning bolt connects with the ground, a corresponding discharge leaps from the top of the cloud toward space. These “sprites” are red, fleeting, and they tend to come in bunches.
On Aug. 29th, Giacomo Venturin of Monte Tomba, Italy, photographed a bunch of sprites dancing over a storm cell 300 km away:
The Earth is a model of Divine Creation. In our search for Life on another planet, Earth holds the perfect conditions for comparison. There is no other Earth, by virtue of a different Time and Place. Human has reached the epitome of assuming the intelligence to make an accurate comparison when there is so little we still know about Earth and our own Solar System. We’re not smarter. We’re only more willing to learn from our mistakes, considering the good of the whole includes collateral damage for a “higher cause.” Some have considered the possibility of trading a Human Body for a mechanical avatar… for the sake of carrying on our human genius to infinity. We could simply upgrade to each newer model.
What makes us Human is the Fire that Burns in our Heart. Suffering is the experience through which we can Understand and Relate to one another – a perspective from which we can Forgive, when we know how it feels. Who are we without the ebb and flow, the highs and lows of everyday life.
Earth/CABAN is the Clarion Call to Live with all our heart. CABAN is the “identity imprint.” We identify with the One who took us in and claimed us as their own. The one that held us close to the heartbeat of a Sanctuary where all our needs are met. 13 Earth/CABAN is the Ascension of a cycle that ignited our Passion To Be. CABAN represents the Forces of Nature that call to the Wild.

The Proximity of the Sun and the Moon
The Moon is receiving it’s brightest dose of Light during the Perihelion. The Sun’s closest proximity to Earth makes it the closest proximity to the Moon. Spaceweather forecasts the potential for full spectrum halos around the Moon.
A HUGE PROMINENCE ON THE SUN: If you have a solar telescope, point it at the sun’s western limb. “There’s a huge prominence on the sun today,” reports Chris Schur, who sends this picture from Payson, Arizona:
The glowing structure stands taller than 10 planet Earths and stretches more than 400,000 km along the arc of the solar disk. These dimensions make it an easy target for backyard solar telescopes. Even better–it is poised to erupt. Those long red streamers in Schur’s photo are held aloft by unstable magnetic fields. The next photo could be a blast…

Greetings Beloved Kin,
A Quickening of our Spirit offered a Divine Reason to live again. The Aztec call Ollin the Day of the purified heart, offering Signs of who we are becoming and a Reason to live with all our Heart.
SYMBOL 13:13
13 is the Sign of Ascension by the Truth of Answered Prayers. 13 is the number of theurgy, Human’s power to call upon a Divine Hand to intervene in Human affairs through our rituals and sacred ceremonies. Rituals are prayers that create Sound in the Universe. Sound generates the Vibration of our Clarion Call to the Highest Power of Creation. Every move we make creates the Sound and Vibration of our Spirit’s Intention. We are called to Move with all our Heart in Faith for what a Divine Creator promised to do.
On the Tone 13 of Ascension we rise above questions that are tied to the past. Once we comprehend the Truth, we see higher mountains to climb. We want to try again, or start something brand new. When we know the Truth of the past, we realize a new life was waiting for us to focus all our energy on the future. We can forget we have a life, when we’re tied up by questions that have nothing to do with our journey through Time.
We don’t have to go along. Our life was a sovereign gift to choose our own way. We are released from second-hand news about who we are, in favor of the One who’s witnessed the Truth and who will always be standing in our corner. The Aztec call this an inauspicious Day for those who depend on other Human Beings for the discernment of the Truth. God’s Truth is the only Light that matters.
Matthew 26:38,39,40
38 Then He said to them, “My soul is consumed with sorrow to the point of death. Stay here and keep watch with Me.” 39 Going a little farther, He fell facedown and prayed, “My Father, if it is possible, let this cup pass from Me. Yet not as I will, but as You will.” 40Then Jesus returned to the disciples and found them sleeping. “Were you not able to keep watch with Me for one hour?”
Greetings Beloved Kin,
The Eve of our Salvation we bear the darkest Night before the Dawn. Our Faith was turned to the Promise of Justice. Human’s Highest Hope is to be restored by the Truth of our Integrity, and that we might rise from the ashes of the lies cast by the evil one. Our “shaky ground” is the proclamation of our Innocence. Jesus was the Human offering that was spotless and pure, yet His Divine Justice was a death of indignity and shame. How much more do we expect to receive, with all our faults and limitations?

Greetings Beloved Kin,
Signs of Design Trinity are reflected by all the 3’s of today. The Mayan symbol for the number 13, is illustrated by 3 places. The 3 dots are the product of the value of two Hands (5’s) aligned as One to create the 3rd Higher Place of Trinity. Number 13 is the symbol of Answered Prayers when they are conveyed for the Highest Purpose and Empowered by the Truth of the Heart.
The Answer to our Prayer is the First Light of knowing who we are becoming, to the sole credit of the Divine Trinity in the Highest Place.
The K’iche Day sign is N’oj (n ‘oh) representing Divine Sources of Knowing as “Angels who walked on Earth” to share the knowledge Human needed to manifest our Highest Creations.
Earth/CABAN can shake us to the core to dismantle an old foundation or raise us to Higher Ground.
The New Year is likely to be volatile for anyone standing on shaky ground. Solid ground is the Foundation of Faith in God’s Perfect Will. When we are surrendered in Faith, there will be no “suffering the second death.”

Greetings Beloved Kin,
Earth/CABAN is the symbol of Mother Earth and her Movement that Creates Time. The Cherokee Heron is a symbol of the Phoenix that rises from the ashes of its past.
The Elders say, “Mother Earth was the first and enduring gift of Life in a Living World.” We were given Life. It’s our choice what we do with it.
The Aztec sign is the Ollin (all in) that simply means Movement, the Sign of Life. We are made of Earth and share all the physical properties. All living things are Conscious of Life and by Divine Design, all this are Conscious of the Vibration of Peace and Love. Mother Earth is a source of Divine Healing through all her Elements and the Sound and Feeling of the Vibration of her Movement.
Serpent/CHICCHAN marked a cycle guided by the Divine Forces and Gifts of Consciousness offered from the Hand of the Lord of All Creation. We were intended to know we were made in the image, and the Gifts of the Highest One are ours to claim. It’s up to us to choose our Divine Inheritance by following the Light we are given to Know the Way. The Highest Intention of a Divine Authority is Love and Beauty in Harmony with the Whole. When we make the Choice, we are blessed beyond our Imagination through the Promise of Divine Atonement. Seeing through the eyes of the Highest One, we Feel the Truth of Love without conditions that will be with us forever.
This is Old News, but still news to me. Electronic communications have had interuptions today, so I went to see if there was a solar storm. You can see the moving image on Space.com. The still screenshot doesn’t do justice to an explosion that covers the whole face of the Sun.
My next stop was MayanMajix.com to calculate the Mayan date. It was 13 Serpent/CHICCHAN, another Ascension of CHICCHAN’s Hand of God delivered from Above. I’m still surprised by the synchronicity of the Mayan calendar. I’ve never seen a Solar Explosion like this.
I claim the One that Answers our Prayers is witness to every day, and carries out the Purpose for every Time in our life.
Today, a Hand is offered to Life on Mother Earth, 13 Earth/CABAN. The Maya discovered the Meaning of TIme by our Common Thoughts for every Hour of the Day.

THE TRECENA OF SERPENT/CHICCHAN: MOVED BY THE HAND OF GOD
The future looked bright for Anna Marie when she was 2 years old. Her childhood took a dark turn the year that followed when my Grandmother Gladys faced another pandemic of Tuberculosis. It was a hard time, passed around, as Census documents Gladys’ moves from one place to another near the end. She died before they invented penicillin. I’ve taken all my COVID shots for her.
In those days, they went out looking for those who were sick, and if they found you ill, or noticed a cough, the health department escorted you to quarantine. No one looks too happy at the last family picture taken close to the end. I still turn to her when I need to forgive.
Her second life started when she was 19. She and my Dad eloped on April Fool’s Day as soon as he returned from service. For 75 years they’ve been April Fools. They never knew a time apart.
She came from a long line of teachers, preachers, and piano players. She made sure all her children learned to play the piano. She always rounded us up at Christmas to sang carols around the piano. She played the organ in church in later years. She was an artist as well, though she discounted her own talent.
She had a penchant for manners and proper language. She corrected us when we said, “I got.” I don’t remember a curse word spoken in our house. Children during the time of TB were taught to behave, since the chances were 30% that your parents would die, and you’d be raised by someone else. Manners were a matter of life and death, the same for her fundamental Christian faith. She prayed for my Salvation for following a Spiritual Path. She said she prayed for me every day. Still, I found comfort in her prayers through the hard times. Our line is English/Irish/Scottish. Her freckles face went well with her auburn hair.

13 Earth / CABAN
A Day of Ascension to Honor the Truth of Answered Prayers, and to Offer a Blessing to the Divine Feminine in us all, and Mother Earth. CABAN is the Time for the purpose to Love with all our heart.
Greetings Kin,
Earth/CABAN is the symbol of Mother Earth and her Movement that Creates Time. The Elders on the Medicine Circle path say, “Mother Earth was the first and enduring gift that was Given to Human Beings by the Creator – to Be Alive and Living in a Living World.” It takes a 3rd perspective to see how Divine a Life of Being and Consciousness really is, when it was freely given by Love.
Counting our Blessings we feel a Human debt that’s long over-due in our Heart. We Ascend with a Reason to follow our Divine Mother around. We learn everything Divine from her Beauty. We didn’t have to have a Divine Human Mother to see what the whole world imagined her to be. The REAL Divine One guided us to see the Truth of it ALL. She taught us to keep going and all things would work out in the end. Once in a while we’re in the place where we can see when she was right.
13 Earth/CABAN is the Answer to our Prayer, that every dream she shared, and everything she saw in us was possible and it’s True. We were both born together, as both ways were over and both new lives began. We know a bond that can never be broken, one who was the Divine Provision of Motherhood for us. A Divine One showed up when it was a matter of life or death.
Tone 13 is the Ascension, the Answer to a Prayer. Something that was heavy has been given over to Love. We found that with all our limitations we can give our own Life a little push, when we need to “even the Divine score.” If we used the “Divine Sum of the Whole” as we went along, and we made the wrong turn. We have TIME to make up the difference with every Higher Creation of one another. Something in the Wind that’s a TRUTH of Love will disseminate a happy thought they could follow.
Number 13 is the symbol of theurgy, the power given to Human through our rituals and sacred ceremonies, to call upon the Divine Intervention of the Higher One. The 1st time we ask was the Choice. We didn’t have to ask again. We ask to Remember.
CABAN is the Source of Consciousness to Know everything. The faculties of discernment are illustrated on the glyph. From the East begins the light of an idea, along a linear path of Reason. We see “what it is.” That turns a thought into our Imagination where we wonder “what it means.” If we don’t see anything meaningful to us, that’s where the thought ends. The 3rd thought of Divine Trinity is the One we have to Lean to find outside of our Human train of thought. The rising circles represent an application of Reason to apply a Divine Truth to the Whole Equation. We add the Truth of Divine Possibility with every little piece of Truth we claim, when it’s the Power of Love.
We were raised to live this New Life in the Haab year, 9 Earth/CABAN. Will we remember what the Mother told us we should always do at the end of every creation? What was the meaning for the Time when “the creation is finished?” Each round of the Tzolk’in brings us here, and every Time, Our Life will “never look better” than it does in the Moment we Know Mother Earth is the Answer to our Prayers.
Human has learned everything we know from Mother Earth. She is our Divine One for comparison to everything else. She taught us who we would grow up to be. CABAN holds the Element of Fire to burn the Truth into our Soul. CABAN is the clarion call to Move on our Life and to Live with all our Heart. We’re going to fall down, and what matters is the double-down we lean twice into our Love for another.
13 Earth/CABAN is the clarion call To Be Who and What we Are, and to Live with ALL our Heart. CABAN marks a Divine Migration of the Heart.
From Higher Ground we see the way and we want to start something new, or try again to make an old Dream New Again.
By the Aztec tradition, the days marked by Ollin are not the Time to fool around. Now we hold the Wisdom for every step. We spent a year Divinely Separated under the Intention of 9 Earth/CABAN. A Divine Mother says the Creation was “finished” by the One, and we need Time to see the Whole the same way. We all belong in the same Universe.
It’s all clear now and if we add the Patience to think, we’ll Know how we’ll forget this Moment of Truth again. Now is the Time to step back when we can see the Whole Picture, while we still remember how it feels. We were given One thing to turn to, day or night, that never forgets us and draws us in when she hears Human’s cry.
Love that’s ours to share.
13 Earth/CABAN is a Divine Initiation of the Truth that will carry us through Life, the Love of a Divine Mother that will perpetually move us on to the Next Higher Truth of Love that was True ALL the Time.
The Answer to our Prayer is written on the Mother’s Face. We know who we are and what we’re supposed to be, when we were just Being. A Divine Father loves us too and beams with pride in the little ways we reflect the image. A Father can see himself in the way we move our hand, when in the whole picture he never noticed it before in himself.
We’re living for the Reason of a Divine Father who wanted to see everything that shines. A Divine Mother makes sure he never compares us to anyone else.
The Love we see in each other makes a Divine Impression. Life looks beautiful when someone is happy to see us around, just for the company. CABAN is the Way we were given to always know the Truth is Love.
To all my relations, may we give the Divine Mother our Love and Adoration. May we uphold the Divinity of the Mother in us that keeps the world alive.
May we think again about a dream we had before we were sent to our room. A Divine Mother didn’t mean it was over. At least give a second look to see if it’s the One. It’s more likely that she made us wait, for the Time that would reveal how long we were waiting for the second chance. Now’s the Time to move ahead. When we look back to see it again, Now we KNOW something, we didn’t know then.
in lak’ech, i am another you

21 DAYS OF GRATITUDE: DAY 4
I’m grateful we only have to open our eyes to see Beauty in front of our face. Mom will live on in the Water that Flows and in the Clouds Above.
HERE WE ARE: A whirlwind within a whirlwind of Life and Light in the Universe. A Divine Mother teaches us the way of the Golden Rule.
My gift for the Tzolk’in round is the “Tzolk’in Field Guide: A Daily Practice for Personal Discernment.” Volume 1 covers the first two seasons of the Tzolk’in round. The “Field Guide” is available to download from a link on the 13-day Trecena Guide Page.
UPDATED: New Resources and calculators of time are part of the work in progress on the Spiritual Tools Page.
13 Earth/CABAN (Cherokee, Heron/GUWI’SGUWI)
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.
Earth/Caban: Earth/Caban: Keeper of the garden of Earth. Profound synchronistic connections to Earth’s natural cycles and energies provide power of creations and memories of ancient wisdom. Earth persons help dispel bad intentions, habits and ideas. This makes them very good counselors and masters of all arts. Studious and intelligent, Earth persons endeavor to bring a flow of natural order to all aspects of life. Being connected to the dynamic forces of nature, Earth persons need much liberty to facilitate their expression of migration or the sending of long distance communications such as the whales, elephants, birds and many other creatures. Sometimes Earth’s delicate sensitivities are upset resulting in quakes of emotion even the display of volcanic temper.
Cherokee, Heron/GUWI’SGUWI: Sign of movement, of perpetual motion, recycling, regeneration; environmentalists fighting for the underdog. Heron is mentally alert, rational, yet opinionated; has a great faith in people and in the divine plan, holding the magic of ministry, medicine, marketing and matchmaking; healing abilities, especially with crystals; negotiation and mediation energy. Heron is symbolized by Deneb, located in the Northern Cross beside the Milky Way.
