Trecena of 1 Caban
Featured Videos | The Trecena of Introspection Caban, or “Earth”, rules the thirteenth trecena. This is the time to use your powers of intellect and perception, of acuity and insight, of harnessing all that rational, left-brain power for your personal growth or to guide others, if that is your calling. But as with all dualities, one side can’t function well without the other, so as always, seek balance even while you focus on one. You will need a significant amount of personal and mental freedom during the next thirteen days… so make room for you, for your soul, for your heart and mind. Clear your calendar, ask for more free time of your family. Organize your bedroom, office or reading nook, and dedicate those times of the day that are naturally yours, to you and only you—this may be the dawn, late morning, afternoon, evening, or even late at night. Only you know your natural inner rhythms. Honor your circadian time. The principal challenge of Caban is not to allow its acute sensitivities and powers of perception to bubble up into emotional upheavals, or to block it from living in the present moment. What is past belongs there; what is future is in your hands. But it is only through your decisions in the present time that your future is defined. This is why so many ancients and sages will tell you, live in the one moment, the ever-present, and think not of the past or future. For they are both already there, in that one eternal, flowing moment. Trust your intelligence. Trust your instincts. Just make sure to keep them balanced, free and pure. Join us on the daily journeys of each Trecena, online at Facebook and Twitter. Music of the Sun For the music lovers in our community, you may want to know about a new CD by the European group Balanza. Artists Martina Schröder and Wolfgang Krois have composed an absolutely beautiful series of twenty songs for the Tzolk’in, one for each sacred Sun Sign. The CD is called “Camino del Sol,” Spanish for “Path of the Sun”. We were sent a copy by the artists to preview and must say it is just extraordinary. How lovely to have a musical interpretation of the Sacred Tzolk’in. For ordering info, please visit the Mayan Majix marketplace or go directly to www.mayanmajix.com/cd.html. Update on the MCP Marketplace Late last year, we announced the upcoming Mayan Calendar Portal Marketplace. Since then, many of you have been writing in to inquire for details on how to become members; thank you so much for your interest, and please know we will be reaching out to everyone soon! For those who are new to the Portal or to this newsletter, the MCP Marketplace will open up a space on the Mayan Calendar Portal where the international Mayan Calendar community can connect and interact within a collaborative economic platform built upon the concepts embedded in the Sacred Mayan Calendar: sustainability, spirituality and natural abundance. Businesses, non profit organizations, and individual artists and professionals will be able to display their services and products, and people looking for a conscious, sustainable alternative to the current way we all do business will be able to search for them within their communities as well as globally. The launch is being planned for the first quarter of this year; we will have a launch date soon. In the meantime, for anyone interested in participating in this new socioeconomic community, please email us.
