12 Deer / MANIK

Greetings Kin,

Tone 12 holds the Intention of Understanding. We were given the Sign of a Major Life Change. The strangeness we feel is the chaos of letting go of ways that were familiar. Though a gift of Higher Discernment, CIMI helped us to see beyond the chaos and Look to our Future.

The Wisdom/CIB trecena intended for us to create our own Wisdom of the Experience of Creation. We were given the Keys to the Kingdom through Higher Consciousness and Forgiveness. We were born to Create a world of Harmony and Equity Below as the Instrument of the Up Above.

Deer/MANIK is the Day Sign of the Mayan Priest. This is the Meaning and Purpose of our Journey by the Tzolk’in calendar, to be the Hand of God in the world. MANIK is also Known as Hand. The glyph illustrates a hand with forefinger and thumb grasping a thread of Ether that completes a circuit to Divine Power. The circle on the hand represents an eye to remind us that the Deer’s primary means of protection is Vigilant Consciousness and observation in all 4 directions.

Deer/MANIK completes the Experience of Understanding who we were Divinely Created to Be. Living as a Dreamer who believes in the Dream, MANIK helps us comprehend the Power that makes it possible.

Transformer/CIMI is a Master at navigating the chaos of change. Seeing the future, CIMI can discern the chaos as a natural part of a transition from one thing to another. The CIMI glyph illustrates the face of Death to remind us that something always dies as something new is born. The chaos is our experience of letting go of our familiar past to move toward the “unknown” future. Our fear can be swept away by the one who Knows our Future.

The Dream we were drawn to play out in the realm of physicality is Living our Life, Believing in our own Power to Create an imagining what we would Love.

We started in a Leap of Faith. Every time we faced our own doubt, the Elders reminded us to just keep turning away from the darkness. As our eyes become accustomed to the dark, we would see the Light of our Dream shining in the future. We are manifesting a Dream by focusing our thoughts on the Dream and all the ways we Love it.

Serpent/CHICCHAN is the “Dragon Energy” that ignites our Consciousness of Consciousness.  As the symbol of Enlightenment and Illumination, CHICCHAN lights the fuse that empowers ALL our Spiritual Gifts of “Knowing.” CHICCHAN is the Power behind the Gift of Clairvoyance, Telepathy, Empathy, Intuition, and Premonition. These were the Gifts that were Given by the Creator to realize our Most Important Truth. They are invisible tools that work in the darkness. They allow us to Know without Seeing. Like the Seed knows its way to the Light, we were designed to Know through all our Physical Senses the integrity of our Truth.

Our Breath is Sacred. Through Sacred Breath we Breathe and are Breathed by the Creator. Completing the 10th uinal of Manifestation, our Spiritual Eyes were opened to see that what we Claim is True is the substance of every Creation. Our Power to Manifest the Dream lies in what we Say is So.
