What did the macaws represent to the Mayans?
Macaws had enormous significance in Mesoamerican history. For more than two millennia the birds were bred and traded between tribes and their feathers were used in important tribal rituals. In Mayan, Inca and Aztec cultures, macaws were seen as being representatives of the sun gods.
Altar to the Ancestors
Greetings Beloved Kin,
Fall is in the Air in my little corner of Kansas. I thought it might be too good to be true that the grass has seemed to stop growing. A thunderstorm offered rain somewhere between the hours that we transitioned from Seed/KAN to Serpent/CHICCHAN. I tried to capture the sound of it but what’s missing from the video clip is the Feelings that came with each boom.
Fall may be the biggest transition we navigate every year, after investing all our energy in the growing season. Everything still looks the same before the leaves start turning at the Fall Equinox, but I felt the silence settling in this morning – except for the birds, chirping louder than ever. The planets in retrograde appear to come to a stop before they turn around. Even the morning candle on my altar to the Ancestors wasn’t flickering and I’ve never seen the flame (like a blow torch) that reached so high.

Greetings Beloved Kin,
Something always dies when something new is born. CIMI is the midwife and hospice nurse that never leaves our side. As an aspect of the Divine Creator, CIMI is a symbol of the Comforter, the Holy Spirit.
The Creator promises to be with us always, especially through the Times of major trasitions from one life to another. We are never alone. CIMI uses a “soft hand” to deal with us through times of Chaos. Chaos is the sign of a Major Life Change in progress.
CIMI shares the Gift of Clairvoyance to remind us of the blessing it will be in our future. “Everything will be okay.” To move beyond our self-limiting beliefs to higher ground, SOMETHING has to change. The choices we have to make are unfamiliar to “the way we used to be.” CIMI offers the Peace beyond human understanding, when we do.
Tone 4 raises an intention to stabilize our Higher Dreams. The Unknown future can trigger our doubts and fears when we venture into new territory. CIMI is the Creator’s Divine Provision as the Comfort of One who supports our Faith through the darkness to the Light of tomorrow. Tone 4 is symbalized as the cube, the most stable of all forms. The substance within is measured by its borders and parameters.
In the 4th hour of Light the Maya arrived at the field of corn. Imagine what you are inclined to do when you arrive at work. We survey the landscape to measure what we can get done by the end of the workday. We divise a strategy of priorities and where we’ll start. To stabilize our body of thoughts, we can establish boundaries of thought. We can review our Intention from the beginning to identify the thoughts we’ll follow and the ones we’ll turn away.
That’s a clear way to identify our own chosen thoughts from the negative thoughts that are only passing by. CIMI holds the Element of Air that relates to our thoughts and our faculties for disciernment. The Air holds all the electrical signals of the collective thoughts of the whole. It’s the medium we share in every breath. The Intention of our Dream is the Positive Breath of our Spirit. We don’t have to claim every thought and feeling as our own. By tracking the mind, we can identify the thoughts that are projected by others. We don’t have to follow thoughts that lead to no-good ends.
Light Beyond the Veil
Greetings Beloved Kin,
“Night/AKBAL” – by Debra Malmos
Night/AKBAL offers the Light from within to make our way through the darkness. We have to Willingly enter the Darkness to bring the Light that shines within and raise the Voice that Speaks to us in our Dreams.
Dark times bring witness to the Light. Every experience is a blessing, for the Inspiration it brings to turn us to the Light of the Highest One.
AKBAL can lead us into a “dark night of the soul.” If we willingly enter, we’ll “see what it is.” Our doubts and fears are not the Truth, but only False Evidence Appearing Real (FEAR).
The Truth lies within, in our own Highest Intentions to Love. We are the Hand of God when we’ve chosen to Love on Behalf of the Whole.
Evil is born from those who are suffering. That’s always “what it is.” When it’s personal it’s easy to cast our self as the victim. Though, the real victim is the one who suffers from forgetting the Truth of Unconditional Love.
Whether the Truth is Seen or Unseen, the Creator is covering every Human limitation with the Promise of Love. We only have to choose to Look to See. Gratitude is the “earth magic” that brings the Truth to Light.
Hebrews 11:1
Now faith is confidence in what we hope for and assurance about what we do not see.
Light Beyond the Veil
Greetings Beloved Kin,
“Night/AKBAL” – by Debra Malmos
The Galactic Week of AKBAL is a trecena of “Light” (Divine Inspiration) that offers the potential to see the Truth beyond the “veil of our Dreams.” Divine Mysteries are revealed from a realm where nothing is impossible.
The glyph illustrates the Light of Truth that shines within, imposed on the face of Monkey/CHUEN, the nahaul of the Creator and Master of all Arts. CHUEN holds position 11, the Master Number that represents the Source of Divine Inspiration. CHUEN is the Master of Time with the Consciousness to Use ALL TIme to the ends of creating the Masterpiece of our Life.
The Meaning and Purpose of Consciousness is to USE it for the Discernment of Truth and for the Application of the Truth that leads to the Wisdom of Experience.

Greetings Beloved Kin,
CIMI is the Sign of a Major Life Change. The face of death is illustrated on the glyph to represent the Truth that something always dies when something new is born. CIMI marks the Time of life transitions on the scale of “life or death.”
CIMI is the comforter through major life transitions, ones born to serve as the hospice nurse and the midwife who never leaves our side. Chaos is always the sign of a major change in progress. CIMI offers the gift of Clairvoyance to see the future. We are tended when a “soft hand” by the one that can bring order out of Chaos to remember “everything will be okay,” and there will be a blessing in our future. Holding the Element of Air, CIMI reminds us to to Breathe.
Residing in the North, CIMI represents the Wisdom from “Above.” It’s hard for human to remember that chaos is never the end, but only the discomfort of leaving familiar ways behind. It takes Time to see what the New Will Be. In times of doubts and fear we forget, a Divine Creator is in charge that will never let go. We prayed for a New Life. Something has to change to move from Point A to Point B.
Every day of this trecena reflects a Master Number in the Day and the Tone. 44 is the Master Builder Number that manifests form by Intention.
Greetings Beloved Kin,
I was afraid to read what was written before. I will, but I wanted to share my Last and Highest Hope BEFORE I hear that everything IS going to be okay.
I moved 2,000 to find “home.” The end is EVERYTHING I could have hoped for, and more – for the opportunity of a Second Chance and a brand new life. I could have never expected how the life before would pass away. On the scale of polarity, one end couldn’t be any farther from the other and still exist on the same planet. I died and now I am in the Only Place I’ve ever wanted to be.
NOW THERE’S NOTHING TO LOSE. There have been AKBAL dreams I loved TOO much to even imagine – thinking I needed to live with the “acceptance” that they could never come true – not now. Though, that’s exactly when the Highest One proves that Miracles are True and that NOTHING is impossible.
Our AKBAL Dream cycle may be the ONLY time we DARE to Dream about what we ALWAYS wanted – our “Impossible.” The end intended from the beginning is 13 Eagle/MEN. We ARE intended to see a Light for our Future – Bright enough to set our coordinates and let everything else fade to black.
That was the purpose of Dreams – to imagine the impossible Beauty we could create, from the Dream that broke our heart.
love, in lak’ech, Debra
PS – I’ll go read BEFORE – and FACE whatever chaos and TIME it takes to reach the Creator’s Divine Time written for ALL who believe in Love.
I’m grateful you are here.

Greetings Kin,
From the 8th to the 13th uinal of the Tzolk’in round, every Intention of Movement is guided by the Force of Divine Agency. Divine Changes happening within are an Effect of the Highest Cause for Life we could imagine for the whole.
We start seeing numbers when we Feel and KNOW, “something is about to happen.” When our Heart wants to see it, we look every which way for the evidence that it could be true. That’s when we start LOOKING for SIGNS AND SYMBOLS.
With Wisdom, we don’t build castles in the air. We look for Truth that’s solid, like Holy Ground.
Through the Gifts of 3 CHICCHAN, we hold the Light to See the Truth “We just feel.” The next logical step forward, if we’re Genius, is to APPLY the Truth of Highest Discernment for the next step we take.
Truth we know because we feel it is the Gift that CIMI shares as a Sign of New Life. Transformer/CIMI is the SIGN OF MAJOR LIFE CHANGE. Remember, we see the Whole Truth in Time. That’s what CIMI’s Gift of Clairvoyance is, claiming what’s True in the Future. We thought it was a “supernatural” power, though we can make a claim for Love for any Time and Place. We are self-fulfilling prophecies, when we dedicate the Masterpiece at the end, to the REAL One Above that Created the Beginning.
On Tone 4 our thoughts are raised to an intention of Stability. We’ve seen the Love we Love and the Love that’s always going to be the Truth. We can create the Ending now. We can imagine any end we choose from the realm of our Dreams – where the Voices spoken between the Above and Below, are as normal as everything else that mystically happens there. In our Dreams the ending is manifested the instant we’ve see the experience.
Transformer/CIMI is born to serve Human in transitions on the scale of Life or Death. The glyph illustrates a Truth with the Face of Death. Something HAS to die for SOMETHING NEW to be born, and to Grow the Legs to Stand. We have to say something is over to start something new. It looks like nothing but chaos in the moment we start spinning a new direction. But, we have to, to break down an existing familiar order of movement. CIMI reminds us too that the Past IS OVER. There’s no way to go back in the realm of physicality. Nothing can be changed for what happened before. That life had its own beautiful beginning. In Time, we’ll see the beauty of the ending that was already Spoken for, from Above.
On Tone 4 we look for legs to stand, so the beauty we claim is True, we’ll know for sure will ALWAYS be the Truth of the Divine Future. 4 represents the cube, the most stable of all forms. Standing on Power Above and Below, we have the 4 legs and the Divine Power of Trinity that carries on forever.
The purpose of Tone 4 is to define what’s True all around us. Dreams are the way to see who we Really Are. When you know your Intention is Creating Love for ALL Time, the Light within will Know it’s reason to keep shining for the One and the Whole.
