10 Deer / MANIK – The Light of Truth: Day 10 of 13

Sep17

THE TRECENA OF FLINT/ETZNAB: LIGHT OF TRUTH

MAYAN CALENDAR DAYKEEPER’S JOURNAL

10 Deer / MANIK

Greetings Kin,

Tone 10 holds the Intention of Manifestation. Our Hopes or Fears become Real when we claim them as the Truth. We can claim the Truth of a worldly illusion, or we can claim the Truth of Love. To change our Life we must claim a new Perspective.

Deer/MANIK is the Day Sign of the Mayan priest. The Deer’s way is a path of Vigilant Consciousness. MANIK is a symbol of stability with one foot firmly planted in each of the 4 directions. The glyph illustrates the Hand, another name for MANIK. The forefinger and thumb grasps a thread of Ether, connecting a circuit of Higher Power Above.

Deer/MANIK holds all the Spiritual Tools for the Discernment of Love. To hold Faith where Love is Unseen in the Darkness requires an effort of Vigilant Consciousness. On 10 MANIK we can claim we have all the Spiritual Tools we need for a journey to Higher Ground. When that’s not enough to find our way, MANIK holds the Power to turn away from negativity with One Special Tool – a Power beyond every Human limitation.

In the 7th uinal we see the Truth of Justice and Injustice. We hate to complain when we see the Truth of all our Blessings. Though, seeing the Light and the Dark at the extremes on either scale, it may be harder to see beyond our own Human limits. The only way to hold the Truth of Love is by dedicating our Heart to the Experience a Divine Creator Knows is the Truth.

MANIK resides in the West, the direction of our Unknown Future. The Element of Water relates to the Moon and our Emotions. As a living sacrifice we can claim a Divine Meaning for our tears on behalf of the Whole. Water is the Spiritual Tool used by the Mayan priest for Blessings, Baptisms, Initiations, and Purification.

THE TRECENA OF SERPENT/CHICCHAN: GIFTS OF SPIRIT

MAYAN CALENDAR DAYKEEPER’S JOURNAL

3 Deer / MANIK

Greetings Kin,

Tone 3 holds the Intention of Movement. The Serpent/CHICCHAN is guiding a new way by our Feelings. We can’t go back. To reach the Miracle, we have to keep moving on. Life begins with Movement. Through the Sound of movement or the spoken words of our Intention we bring a new Vibration to Life. The Tone and Frequency will carry on to the end, established by the Intention in the beginning.

The only way to get from Point A to Point B is to keep moving on. The Key to the Kingdom of a Divine Life depends on a steady course of perpetual movement.

Deer/MANIK is the Day Sign of the Mayan priest, holding the quality of Stability with one foot firmly planted in each of the 4 directions. We have to keep on Loving to maintain the Harmony of Right Relationship in the South. We have to keep on facing the Unknown Future in the West, standing on the Truth that Love will lead a way. We have to keep on applying our own Common Sense and Wisdom of Experience. The Answer is always right in front of us. The Deer stands in the West, guiding a way to an Altar of Light – facing the Sunrise of each new day.

Deer/MANIK is the giver of Spiritual Tools. MANIK holds the power of Harmonic Resonance. The Mayan priest doesn’t demand a way, but only carries on its own path to an altar. When others see the the priest kneel in humility at an altar, others remember their own way and drawn to follow.

3 Deer / MANIK – Prayers from the Longhouse

Aug27

Bodewadmin Longhouse Message from Minisa Crumbo Halsey

Good morning … mno waben aanii … good day friends …

I am expanding this mailing in order to initiate important plant talk into our fall and winter gestational honor seasons, whereby we recognize and honor those seeds with which we sat and prayed last winter in the Bodewadmin Longhouse. As with the natural world or a tended, intentional garden, part of the growth can be predicted or shaped and part cannot. At this time we all, here on Turtle Island, find ourselves coming into new awareness and balance with the Great Mystery. The inner and outer landscapes are shifting. This offers so much opportunity for not only sacred choice to the exercised but also a vastly expanded view of Medicine Wheel teachings and disciplines by which to institute these choices … then bringing these ones into the inner longhouse for growth and endurance prayers.

Visit Minisa’s Dawn Woman’s Blog for the rest of Minisa’s message sharing the Gifts of Mother Earth for every Season.

love, in lak’ech, Debra

3 Deer/MANIK (Cherokee, Deer/Ahwu’sdi)

Galactic Tone 3: Action. Three is basic movement and communication, which begins as a vibration. Three energy is very eloquent in all types of self-expression. Communication is how Three establishes a point of agreement between any point “A” and any point “B”. Three persons are rhythmic to the core and are often restless, as motion is their nature. By working closely with the energy of Three, any person becomes more able to predict motions of all kinds.

Deer/MANIK (Hand): Deer are spirit tools. Silence itself is a spiritual experience for Deer. For Deer life is a pilgrimage. Deer are dominant persons who defend the people and will make sacrifices for others. The spirit of Deer upholds the pillars of the four directions. With the power inherent in the number four, Deer pushes away bad influences or negative energies. Skill and quality of work are very important to Deer. They are presented with tools for every task in life and it is with these that they are able to rise above limitations. Deer has a habit of keeping every tool it has ever used. This leads to clutter and indecision, loss and procrastination. When confronted with promises not kept, Deer becomes stubborn, manipulative and evasive.

Cherokee, Deer/Ahwu’sdi: Symbolized by Constellation Galagina, the Stag, known as Taurus, the Bull. It does not include the Pleiades and Hyades clusters which in Cherokee are viewed as separate. To feed, gatherers of food and supplies, they enjoy rituals, ceremonials, feasts, the souls of hospitality, sociability. Freedom versus security issues often inspire leadership and unique solutions.  Combined with artistic and inspiring energies in harmony with lunar cycles, they nourish the clans. Totem-Deer:  A priest or shaman, a powerful person in general, to overwhelm an individual with one’s personal power, divination; inclined to become a teacher, healer, guru, civic leader, or politician.  Ability to create harmonic resonance.

[Text in italics was the primary source of inspiration for my journal. These are the sources that started my journey and they are the reference for interpretation each day. 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. Mayan descriptions are those written by Ian Lungold. Cherokee descriptions came from multiple sources.

9 Deer / MANIK – A Revival of Spirit: Day 9 of 13

Aug8

THE TRECENA OF STORM/CAUAC: A RENEWAL AND REGENERATION OF SPIRIT

MAYAN CALENDAR DAYKEEPER’S JOURNAL

9 Deer / MANIK

Greetings Kin,

Tone 9 holds the Intention of Patience to see the Bigger Picture. Tone 9 is a Divine Intention that engages the Power of Trinity, to the High, Higher, and Highest Power of Discernment. The Mayan Elders warned that there could be great suffering to bear, if we fail to choose this step in the process of our Creation.

There is ALWAYS more to Know about a New Truth we are given. To actually climb a pyramid, the only way to keep your balance is to already be leaning on the next higher step. On Tone 8 we were given a zenith light to see our future. No matter how bright the ideas may be, we can fall back to the Vibration of 7, to weigh the truth all over again. We are given a Divine Tool of to see all the pieces and parts drawn together – the 2020 Vision of our Dreams.

The circle on the glyph illustrates the Strength of the Deer in a gift of Vigilant Consciousness. Training our eyes to the Highest Truth all around, we conceive our own Holy Ground… a place we know is Safe and Sound because we used the Gift we were given to always know a Truth of Unconditional Love. We were given a simple way of Divine Magic, by just counting the Blessing and Miracles we’ve already Witnessed as the Truth.

Where two are united in the same Divine Cause for Prayer, there is Power Beyond the sum of the pieces and parts. We engage the 3 + 3 + 3 of the Holy, Holy, Holy. When a Trinity Below aligns with a Trinity Above, the Power is raised to the 9, a number that can be expressed as an exponential value – 3 x 3. The “x” is the Divine Operation of “unknown exponential value” that will guide us to our Highest End.

The next higher step for Believing lies in the Big Picture. All Divine Gifts hold powers beyond Human imagination. We can assume that what is beyond understanding can’t be Seen in one glance. There is always a Divine Reason we needed to know. That Higher Truth is seeing the Divine Meaning and Purpose of the WHOLE experience.

If we knew the end from the beginning, we’d Leap to the end without fulfilling the Reason for Life, to witness Love from a Beginning to an End. Forgetting was included in the Design so we could reflect on another end of the scale. The darker our path may be, the Greater the Light will be to see our way through. In the darkness we grow the Inner Strength of Spirit – practicing our part in the Whole Dance. We have a Time and Place in the spotlight of God’s Love. Forcing our way through the Winds of Change, when we break through the resistance, the Power of our Effort will be known in the future when there is Nothing Holding us back. Like the Seed, a Divine Mystery led it to the Light that waited Above.

Deer/MANIK is the Day Sign of the Mayan Priest, the One that dedicates a Daily path to an altar. We need the Highest Light to walk in the Integrity of our own Truth. The proof is in all the ways we forget, in all the Wisdom that can be lost in a moment we don’t APPLY Our Truth. Beings of Duality HAVE to be given an experience to Know the Truth. We can hear lots of encouraging words we HOPE are True and even hold Faith as True, when we believe the thoughts were Divine. Yet we can’t claim the Truth as our own without our own experience that bears out the Divine Truth. When we EXPERIENCE the Truth and FEEL the Truth, Believing is ours to Have and Hold.

2 Deer / MANIK – Transition of Light: Day 2 of 13

Jul19

TRECENA OF TRANSFORMER/CIMI, SIGN OF MAJOR LIFE CHANGE

MAYAN CALENDAR DAYKEEPER’S JOURNAL

2 Deer / MANIK

Greetings Kin,

Tone 2 holds the Intention of Duality. We began in Unity as One. On Tone 2 we are separated from the Whole, into the realm of our own Human Consciousness. Human conceives the Truth through a binary process. We are inspired by Divine Truth that can establish the Faith to Believe. The Truth becomes our own through the Wisdom of Experience.

We are Beings of Duality, designed in symmetry with 2 Identities, a Human Nature and a Divine Nature. Duality is the way of Human Consciousness that learns by comparing one thing to another. Our Divine Mission is to balance a Life Above and Below.

Through Divine Gifts of Consciousness, when we Know the Truth of one thing, we’ve acquired a Truth to know many things. Our Divine Genius is a Gift of Application to carry Truth to Higher Ground. Knowing One Truth, we can expand our Wisdom. “If this is True, then…” is the “operation of thought” through which to conceive the Higher Consciousness of Truth. When we count our blessings, we realize they never end. In the same way, that one question asked over again WILL lead us to Highest Wisdom Above.

CIMI is guiding us to a Divine Life. The Creation of Divine Consciousness is a never ending search for Truth. We were drawn to a path by the Calling of our Heart to know the Mysteries of Life and our Place in the Universe. Like CIMI, we have the Gift to See the Future. We only need to Look to See it. We know what to expect of Time and the Seasons of Life. The Tzolk’in offers the calendar of our Creation. The Future that lies at the end of this journey is the Highest Truth that will sweep all our worldly illusions of powerlessness away. The future that lies ahead is the Truth that will set us Free to Claim the Life of our Dreams – an experience of Life that unfolds in Beauty as our Heart Desires.

On Tone 2 we consider our own way to carry out a Divine Intention of Love for the Whole. We compare our past to the future and consider what new choices we would make. We consider our Human limitations to carry them out. We might compare our Self to someone else, and how we are “more or less” equipped for the purpose.

Deer/MANIK is the Day Sign of the Mayan priest, who is dedicated to a path to a Divine Altar on behalf of the Whole. The Mayan priest is not a preacher, but one that follows its own way, lighting the candles, saying the prayers, and observing the Sacred Ceremony that is ordered by the calendar. The Mayan priest serves as a Guiding Light to Remember. MANIK holds the power of Harmonic Resonance. Through the purest Tone of Love, the Deer emanates the Sound of Love that calls lower vibrations into sympathy. When MANIK kneels at an altar in Sacred Ceremony, others See and Remember the Time to turn to their own prayers.

Deer/MANIK is a symbol of Stability. The Deer is said to uphold the Pillars of our Faith with one foot firmly planted in each of the 4 directions. The Deer leads by silently standing on its own Truth without defense. The glyph illustrates the eye of the Deer in the circle to symbolize the Deer’s gift of Vigilant Consciousness. Wherever the Deer stands as been Consciously Chosen as a Place of Higher Ground. Our own Divine Truth is like Common Sense that leaves no questions. The glyph shows the Hand, another name for MANIK, reaching to grasp the thread of Ether that completes a Divine Circuit to the Highest Power Above. The Deer follows the path of Humility. Kneeling to the Highest Light Above, the Deer is Free to Live by its Faith in the Up Above. The Deer seeks to Understand rather than be Understood. We can stand in the Truth of our Light when we are Vigilantly Consciousness of our own Intention to claim the Light of Unconditional Love for the Whole. 2 Deer/MANIK guides us to a Divine Choice to dedicate our Life to the Divine Meaning and Purpose by following a Daily Practice of Faith.

“Red Deer” by Minisa Crumbo Halsey

Red Deer, Minisa Crumbo Halsey – Shared on 8 Deer/MANIK, Initiation Day

Greetings Kin,

Minisa shared this beauty this morning. It hangs in her home at Spirit Horse Ranch in Mounds, Oklahoma and brings back many memories.

Minisa shared the traditional path of the Hopi/Tewa, Muskogee/Creek and Potowatomie.  So did every member of the Medicine Circle in Oklahoma share many ways. The circle carry on their prayers for the whole through the drums and song. I give thanks for the harmonic resonance they create to uphold the pillars of faith.

8 Deer / MANIK – A Journey of Illumination: Day 8 of 13

Jun29

THE TRECENA OF SUN/AHAU LEADS THE HIGHEST WAY

8 Deer / MANIK

MAYAN CALENDAR DAYKEEPER’S JOURNAL

Greetings Kin,

Tone 8 holds the Intention of the Justice of Harmony and Equity. Number 8 is a symbol of “pure spirit,” Life and Abundance to infinity. Tone 8 begins the Transformation of Consciousness that holds blessings that reach beyond our Time and Place to the Destiny of the Whole.

On Tone 8 we begin to Conceive a Higher Reason to Believe. The Transformation phase of the trecena is illustrated as the descending stairs of the pyramid. Through a Divine Reflection of Tone 7, at the threshold of Spirit, we saw stairs that continued on into the realm of Spirit. Descending stairs are the illustration of the Human experience. In the Balance, an Unseen Force draws us to Higher, just like the force of gravity that pulls us down.

The Transformation is carried out by a Divine Agency. We pushed and Intention of Creation to the limits of Human Faith. Through the Intention of Divine Justice, a Power Above will carry our Dreams the rest of the way to a New Light of Believing.

HOLY DAY: INITIATION OF THE MAYAN PRIEST
8 Deer/MANIK is the Holy Day of a Divine Initiation. Through the first season of the Tzolk’in, we’ve been raised to a Higher Consciousness of the Divine Human Beings we were designed to be. All things are created for a meaning and purpose. We don’t imagine a Dream unless we have a Reason for the end. We were born as the Scion to reflect the Creator’s Highest Light on Earth. Deer/MANIK guides the Mission of the Mayan priest. Through a dedicated Mission to carry out the prayers, rituals, and sacred ceremonies at an altar, our Light would shine a way for the Whole to find the never-ending Truth of Love and the Provision for a Life defined by a Divine Meaning and Purpose.

1 Deer / MANIK – A Mission of Love: Day 1 of 13

Jun9

THE TRECENA OF DEER/MANIK

1 Deer / MANIK

Greetings Kin,

The Next 13-Days…

Deer/MANIK inspires a Divine Meaning and Purpose for our Life. The Deer is the Day Sign of the Mayan priest. The Deer is a symbol of stability with one leg planted in each of the 4 directions. Another name for MANIK is Hand, illustrated in the glyph grasping a thread of Ether that completes the connection to a circuit of Divine Power. The circle represents the Eye of the Deer that maintains a watch of Vigilant Consciousness.

Deer/MANIK guides us to claim a Divine Meaning and Purpose for our Life and to dedicate the Time to a Mission of Service. MANIK is dedicated to the path that leads to an altar. The Mayan priest is one who observes the calendar and carries out the sacred ceremonies on behalf of the Whole.

The Deer leads by gift of Harmonic Resonance. By standing in the Highest Integrity of Truth, the Deer leads by attraction. The Mayan priest offers the witness of Love that is grown by dedicating our self to a path. The Mayan priest doesn’t enforce any rules or doctrine. We are all intended to discern our own way from the Master Teacher within. By observing the sacred traditions, Deer reminds others to follow their own path.

In every herd of Deer there is One that will serve as the leader who stands in Vigilant Consciousness. The Deer stands in the Integrity of its own Truth. MANIK teaches that we aren’t meant to defend our ground. Our Way is led from Above. The Deer’s way is to stand silently on the Truth of Holy Ground.

The Deer upholds the pillars of Faith by honoring all ways and all paths that lead to the place of Divine Communion. The Deer is Vigilantly Conscious of Time and Place and dedicates itself to remembering that every path will look different, depending on where we are in the journey. The Deer guides us to stand on the Truth that we believe in the here and now. We don’t have to defend it. We’re the only one in our Time and Place. No one but a Divine Creator will know the Meaning and Purpose of our Truth. The Whole Truth won’t be completed until the end. We are always on a journey to Higher Truth. We have to start somewhere. It’s more important to learn to See what we Believe and Stand on our own Truth than it is to be “right.” How could we ever explain a Truth spoken to our heart?

The Deer is a living demonstration of Faith in Action. Kneeling at an altar, MANIK serves as an example of Humility. Admitting the Truth of our limitations will always lead us to a Higher Truth of the Creator’s Love. Deer shares the Spiritual Tools of Spirit and is said to have kept every tool it’s ever used. The priest holds the Sacred Medicine Bundle that has been passed down by all the Ones that led before. The Highest Mayan Priest, Don Alejandro, holds the Sacred Staff. The Deer guides us to take up our own staff and dedicate our Life to our own Mission of Love. The Movement of Divine Intention creates the Vibration of Love that calls lower vibrations into Harmony.

Through a dedicated practice of Divine Consciousness, the Deer is capable to push away negative influences. The Elders said the Way of Spiritual Development is to track the mind to be Conscious of our thoughts, and Remember we can Choose the ones we will follow. The most Divine Tool held by the Deer is a Divine Provision for every Human limitation. The path is the Provision through which to Remember the Tool of theurgy, the Power that was Given to Human Beings to call upon a Divine Agency through our rituals and sacred ceremonies. The Deer stands on the Truth of the Creator’s Promise of Answered Prayers.

Trecena of Light:
Deer/MANIK guides a cycle of Divine Inspiration. Following the Light of Divine Discernment we will realize a Divine Meaning and Purpose for our Life, and we will manifest the Truth that we were given every Spiritual Tool we need to carry out the Mission. The purpose will be to find our Own Divine Way. The Elders on the traditional Native American path said that we weren’t meant to emulate their ways, but to create our own myths. They said the tools passed down could serve as Proven and Worthy Tools that we could rely on until we created our own. We carry on the ways by a personal Choice when we Understand the Momentum of all the prayers that have gone before.

GLOBAL BURNER: 4 Dog/OC
Residual energy is burned away at the Center of each Season. On Global Burners the shaman and the priest carry out the Sacred Fire Ceremonies on behalf of the Whole to restore Right Relationship in the Community. 4 Dog/OC stabilizes the energy of Unconditional Love. On days leading up the the Global Burner we are more likely to feel the symptoms of stress building up to a big release. Through the Element of Fire, the flesh of our Ego is burned away and we are Restored to Right Relationship. The Mayan priest observes a ritual of 21 Days of Gratitude leading up to the event. I’m just noticing that 21 days before 4 Dog/OC is 10 Dog/OC. It’s the same for each of the Global Burner Day Signs (Dog/OC, Eagle/MEN, Sun/AHAU, and Serpent/CHICCHAN). In the future I can remember that the 21 Days of Gratitude begin from the Tone 10 of Manifestation and mark the calendar for 10 Eagle/MEN, 10 Sun/AHAU, and 10 Serpent/CHICCHAN.

PEAK DAYS: Peak Experience, Peak Performance
The Peak Tones of the trecena are the best days for personal performance. These are days when we feel confident in our intentions and communication with others.

  • 6 Road/EB – generates momentum of a rhythm and pattern of movement, marking a New Milestone on the Road to our Destiny
  • 7 Reed/BEN – offers the Light of Divine Communion at the Highest Altar
  • 8 Jaguar/IX – shines the Zenith Light of “pure spirit” and the “earth magic” of gratitude
  • 9 Eagle/MEN – our Transformation is completed by a Vision of our Divine Future, and Knowing the Dream lies within our grasp

Deer/MANIK inspires a Way to navigate the Chaos of a Major Life Change. We will Ascend on 13 Storm/CAUAC. Through a Gift of Lightning from Above, we will Receive a Blessing and Purification of Living Water for the Renewal and Regeneration of our Spirit.

7 Deer / MANIK – Dawn of a New Awakening: Day 7 of 13

May20

MAYAN CALENDAR DAYKEEPER’S JOURNAL

7 Deer / MANIK

Greetings Kin,

Peak Tone 7 completes our first climb of Spiritual Growth. At the top of the pyramid we’re given a 20/20, 360 view to see “all that is” and “all that is not.” Tone 7 is the place of Balance, the application of the “great law” of Creation, “As Above, So Below.”

How we guide our thoughts Above, will determine a discernment of Truth Below. Our thoughts manifest what we see in the world. With Consciousness, we have the power to direct thoughts by our own Intentions.

Deer/MANIK reflects the Way of Discernment that will be our Human path of Divinity. MANIK is the sign of the Mayan priest. MANIK holds ALL the Spiritual Tools of Divine Discernment.

The glyph illustrates 2 Intentions of Movement that will always lead to our Divine Destiny. The circle represents the eye of the Deer. The Deer is a nahaul of Vigilant Consciousness. In a herd of Deer, one will always serve as the leader who keeps a vigilant watch. The rest keep an eye on the Deer. From peripheral vision, they will know when to move. The glyph illustrates a Hand, another name for MANIK. The forefinger and thumb grasp a thread of Ether that connects a Divine Circuit of Power. MANIK holds the power of Harmonic Resonance, connecting with an Unseen Force of electromagnetic energy, others are drawn into sympathy with the Vibration of Love.

Deer symbolizes the stability of 4 legs. It’s said that MANIK has one leg planted in each of the 4 directions to uphold the Pillars of our Dreams. Deer stands on Faith in its own Truth without any need to defend its ground. Deer stands on a Higher Ground from within.

Master Number 77 and May 20/2020: Deer/MANIK holds position 7 and Kin numbers that end in 7 all the way across the Tzolk’in round. The Deer’s way always leads us to the place where we see clearly, “all that is” and “all that is not” a Divine Way to Love. Unconditional Love offered the Sacred Right to Choose. When the choice is up to us, we can choose the Tool that stands up for us, that helps us remember ways that are an Expression of Love, without enforcing our way on another as the Only Way. The Elders said, there are MANY ways to accomplish the same thing. We have to choose what works for us, that we can FEEL as our Truth.

13 Deer / MANIK – Ascension: Day 13

Apr30

THE TRECENA OF EAGLE/MEN

MAYAN CALENDAR DAYKEEPER’S JOURNAL

13 Deer / MANIK

Greetings Kin,

Tone 13 marks the Day of Ascension. We rise from the 12 when the 2 below are aligned in a Divine Purpose. When 2 believe as 1, we are offered an exponential Power of Prayer. 13 symbolizes a Truth passed down from the Ascended Masters of Every Spiritual Path… the Power through ritual and ceremony to call upon the Intervention of Divine Agency. Prayer is the fundamental expression of Divine Communion. We were intended to share a Relationship. By a Divine Design, a Supreme Creator inspired a Divine Identity – Higher than our Human Nature.

Deer/MANIK is the Day Sign of the Mayan priest that demonstrates a Divine Mission. Deer/MANIK resides in the West, the Direction of the Unknown Journey of Life. Holding the Element of Water, MANIK relates to our Emotions. Water is the substance that holds the Ether of Spirit.

Water is a Gift from Father Sky. ALL Water is Holy and used by the priest for Baptisms, Initiations, Blessings and Purification. On the Holy Day of Ascension, we see how far we’ve come. Now we have perfect hindsight. We want to try again, or try something new. We want to reach for new horizons.

Deer/MANIK is the giver of Spiritual Tools, and said to keep every spiritual tool its ever used. Divine Thoughts shared are the tools through which we can Grasp Divine Truth. The glyph illustrates the Hand, another name for MANIK. The forefinger and thumb are shown grasping a thread of Ether that completes the circuit to a Divine Source of Power. The glyph also includes a circle as the Eye of the Deer. The Deer’s most used tool is the application of Vigilant Consciousness.

In the tradition of the Maya the Mayan priest is not a preacher, but one that is dedicated to its own path. The Mission demands integrity. The priest isn’t the perfect example, but a Human who has chosen a dedicated practice. MANIK serves the whole by helping others remember. The priest keeps Time and carries out the prayers and rituals as they are ordered on the calendar. The Deer holds the power of Harmonic Resonance, Through a pure intention from the heart, others are inclined to follow.

In every herd of Deer, one is assigned to be the Vigilant Witness in all 4 directions. The rest go about their way, keeping an eye on the One. If the One watching moves to another place, it’s wise to follow. The Deer is a symbol of stability with one foot planted in each of the 4 directions.

Number 1313: Tone 13 and uinal 13 represent the Number 1313. Number 1313 doubles and amplifies the Number 13. Number 1 relates to self-leadership and assertiveness, telling us that we create our own experiences with our Intentions, Thoughts, and Beliefs. Number 3 is a sign that we are surrounded by a Divine Agency, helping us focus on the Divine spark within our Self and others. The Ascended Masters are working through our thoughts to enable the highest and wisest choices, and to use our natural interests, talents, and personality to bring joy and uplift others.  1313 resolves to Number 8 (1+3+1+3=8), the Number of “pure spirit” and Abundance.
