The Trecena of Power

Muluc, the Water sign, rules the seventeenth trecena of the Tzolk’in. A potent and rather emotionally charged sign, Muluc packs a powerful swell of energies that can sway in any direction if it’s left alone. Like the Sun, the Ocean, or the Wind, Muluc propels great amounts of energy and force—in this regard, it is a vital source sign.

If you are a Muluc by birth or nature, this Trecena will bring out your natural essence and resonate with your powerful currents of emotion and intelligence. You may have noticed throughout your life that your intensity, flexibility and the ability to adapt to almost any situation, or change at a moment’s notice, causes mistrust or misunderstanding in others who are not quite so adaptable or emotionally charged. If this is so, you might use the energy of this Trecena to carve out channels of communication that will more easily and readily reach your loved ones, friends and colleagues.

The power of water is unlike that of any other… so use it well. Respect and honor it, and harness it with the purest of intentions. It will return the favor a thousandfold.

Join us on the daily journeys of each Trecena, online at Facebook and Twitter.


Conscious Convergence July 17–18, 2010

As one of the co-organizers of Conscious Convergence 2010, taking place this July, the Mayan Calendar Portal is working with Carl Calleman, CommonPassion.org, Mayan Majix, the International Metaphysical University and other organizations and individuals in a global effort to bring people together all over the world to set the intention for, and to demonstrate the fulfillment of, Unity Consciousness.

This enormous global collaboration prepares us for the Ninth Wave of evolution of consciousness as encoded in the Sacred Mayan Calendar. Mayan elders are inviting us to align with the divine plan for humanity’s greater fulfillment. Local and global intention-setting activities, meditations and prayers will be synchronized throughout the months leading up to and following the main program on July 17th and 18th, 2010, so stay tuned here on El Quetzal, our Facebook page, or the Conscious Convergence forum for more details!

We also wish to share Carl Calleman's latest MCP blog post, in which he shares his personal vision for this global event—so please do check it out, let us know what you think and be sure to post your comments, questions and thoughts on how we can all make the Convergence a reality of lasting impact rather than an event of a few days.



Kenneth Johnson's Mayan Calendar Story

Our next "Mayan Calendar Story" comes from author and Mayan scholar Kenneth Johnson, who spent winter 2009/2010 traveling the Maya lands of Guatemala and Mexico. In this story, posted on our site as a blog, Ken recounts what it's like not just to follow the changing signs of the Tzolk'in, but quite literally to live the calendar, from sunrise to sunset, with the Maya themselves. It certainly makes you want to take a month off from your job...


Interested in submitting a Mayan Calendar story of your own to El Quetzal? Here are the basic requirements: the limit is 250 words; the stories should be in good English (please check for spelling and grammar) and should have a single, focused point.

It can be a story about any aspect of life, and the role that the Tzolk’in plays therein. You can talk about a revelation or an unusual change you experienced, or simply the everyday, the practical, the way that you experience the sun signs, or the questions and doubts you have. To submit your story, simply email it to us.
