Mayan Majix - New Tzolkin Begins - 5-27-10

To view this announcement on line: click here Follow us on Twitter: @ Mayan_Majix May 27, 2010 Dear Mayan Majix Friends, Today is 1 - Crocodile (Imix) Begins a New Tzolkin (260 day cycle) Tzolkin Trecena Notes – 1 Imix (Crocodile/Waterlily) Day 1 of the 260 Day Tzolkin Gregorian Date: May 27, 2010 Year Bearer: 11 Manik Trecenas are thirteen-day periods in the Tzolkin. Each Trecena starts with the Number 1, but with a different Day Glyph. As a wave of the Thirteen Heavens, the underlying energy is governed by the First Day Glyph of the Trecena and influences all thirteen successive Day Glyphs. Being aware of the predominant energy of the First Day of the Trecena, we can align our intentions with that energy and allow our goals to manifest. This Trecena starts with 1 Imix (Crocodile/Alligator/Waterlily) – Beginning - Initiating new possibilities and concepts – Receptivity and Trust, Earth Mother, Nourishment, Protection, Primordial Ocean of Possibilities. The Classic Maya believed that an earth monster or primordial Crocodile floated in the ocean of the Underworld. He carried the Earth on his back, nourishing and protecting all life. Thus, Crocodile supplies humanity with the underlying primal feeling of our connection to nature and Mother Earth. The glyph itself represents a Waterlily, a symbol of beauty, abundance and growth, and the possibility of ascension out of the primordial soup of creation. Out of the void, a spark of fire falls into the primordial ocean of possibilities and creation spirals into life. © 2006 Judith Ann Griffith With 1 Imix we are starting a new Tzolkin round of 260 days which ends on 13 Ahau. 1 Imix is a logical place to begin counting the days. The number 1 and Imix both symbolize beginning. According to Kenneth Johnson in Jaguar Wisdom, “this is an arbitrary point of origin. The rhythm of the Sacred Calendar is circular; many contemporary Calendar shamans insist that it has neither beginning nor end. Nevertheless, we will follow tradition and use 1 Crocodile as a convenient ‘beginning’.” Another representation of the Trecena is that of a creative wave beginning at 1 and ending at 13, with the numbers 6, 7 and 8 representing the crest of the wave. The crest could be interpreted as a strong influential energy, although the underlying influence on the Trecena would still rest in the beginning. In this Trecena, the crest falls on 6 Cimi (Transformation/Death), 7 Manik (Deer/Healing Hand) and 8 Lamat (Rabbit/Venus). It is interesting that transformation, change and new beginnings, falls on the crest of the wave in the trecena Crocodile which is the beginning of the Tzolkin. Deer symbolizes groundedness of the four-legged animals and the healing hand. Rabbit energy symbolizes abundance and the pure joy of being alive. The energies of this Crest propel us to change in order to heal and live in abundance. As we journey through each day of this Trecena, 1 Imix (Crocodile) – May 27, 2010 2 Ik (Wind) – May 28 3 Akbal (Night) – May 29 4 Kan (Lizard) – May 30 5 Chicchan (Serpent) – May 31 6 Cimi (Death) – June 1 7 Manik (Deer) – June 2 8 Lamat (Rabbit) – June 3 9 Muluc (Water) – June 4 10 Oc (Dog) – June 5 11 Chuen (Monkey) – June 6 12 Eb (Road) – June 7 13 Ben (Reed) – June 8 Focus on the energies of Crocodile in order to open our hearts and live from our hearts. Crocodile offers emotional, physical and spiritual security during the vibrational changes occurring now with planet Earth and concurrently within ourselves. ***For a list of all 20 Mayan Sun Signs - click here *** In Lak’ech, William and Viola www.tzolkincalendar.com ©2010 William and Viola Welsch 1) Mayan Elders will honor the Conscious Convergence: Three Mayan elders, Don Alejandro Oxlaj, Don Rigoberto Itzep and Hunbatz Men, have pledged to participate in the Conscious Convergence, July 17-18, 2010 through performing ceremonies on these dates. The three elders are among the most respected and well-known representatives of the Mayan people yet having somewhat different roles in this tradition. a) Hunbatz Men is probably the most well-known of the Yucatec Maya elders and is the initiator of the Maya Mystery Schools, (see http://www.themayas.com.mx/). b) Don Rigoberto Itzep leads the Wajshakib Batz (8 Monkey) ceremonies in Momostenango in Guatemala, which plays a critical role in maintaining the continuity of the calendar through the initiation of new daykeepers (see http://www.maya-portal.net/blog/ken/initiation_of_daykeeper_report_from_momostenango or http://www.kachina.net/~alunajoy/wajshakib-batz.html). c) Don Alejandro Oxlaj, Wandering Wolf, http://www.shiftoftheages.com/, is the spokesperson of the 440 person strong Mayan Council of Elders in addition to being Grand Elder of the Continental Council of the Indigenous Peoples of the Americas. Very likely the Conscious Convergence will be observed also by many other elders all over the Mayan lands as the word goes around. The participation of Hunbatz Men and Don Alejandro takes on a special role in that it establishes a continuity to the Harmonic Convergence in 1987 in which they both played an instrumental role. The Conscious Convergence Core Team is happy to announce the support of the Mayan elders for the July 17-18 event, and through this we want to extend a call to all indigenous peoples in the world to be part. 2) New Article by Carl Johan Calleman: Calleman Responds to "Calleman Wrong about End Date of Mayan Long Count Calendar" - click here Special Thanks to our sponsor The Shift of the Ages REMINDERS: Conscious Convergence July 17th and 18th - to volunteer contact Jo-beth: jo-beth.kiefer@commonpassion.org to donate http://www.commonpassion.org/please_donate - read more details about the CC click here Mayan Calendar Portal Survey - Have you taken the on-line survey yet?

Mayan Majix Announcement - 13 Ahau

To view this announcement on line: click here Follow us on Twitter: @ Mayan_Majix May 26, 2010 Dear Mayan Majix Friends, Today is 13 - Sun (Ahau) Tzolkin Notes – EVOLUTIONARY SHIFT 2011 ORIGIN OF THE TZOLKIN COUNT OF DAYS Many have written and hypothesized about this but no definitive answer has appeared. Perhaps Tony Shearer in Beneath the Moon and Under the Sun says it best: “A story was told to the Spaniards shortly after the conquest in Oaxaca …. ‘On the day we call Tecpotl (Etznab/Flint) a great light came from the Northeastern sky. It glowed for 4 days in the sky, then lowered itself to that rock (the rock can still be seen at Tenochtitlan de Valle in Oaxaca ). From the light there came a great, a very powerful being who stood on the very top of the rock and glowed like the sun in the sky. There he stood for all to see, shining day and night. Then he spoke, his voice was like thunder, booming across the valley. Our old men and women, the astronomers and astrologists, could understand them and he could understand them. He (the Solar Beam) told us how to pray and fixed for us days of fast and days of feasting. He then balanced the “Book of days” (Sacred Calendar) and left, vowing that he would always watch down on us, his beloved people.’” The Sacred Calendar, the Tzolkin, was created by combining the 20 sacred glyphs with 13 magic numbers. 13 x 20 = 260. According to the Mesoamericans of Mexico and Central America , their total concept of life revolved around the Sacred Calendar and life was viewed as a great ceremony. This ceremony continues today as we follow the Sacred Calendar and dance to the rhythm of the cycles of the most Sacred Drum. TZOLKIN MEASURES SACRED TIME The Tzolkin Count of days measures sacred time. It is not based on the measure of the movement of the Earth around the Sun but rather the unique Sacred Energy created by each combination of 20 Day Glyphs and 13 Magic Numbers. These rounds or cycles of 260 days (kin) are endlessly repeating likened to the heartbeat of the Universe. As Dr. Carl Calleman so succinctly states in The Mayan Calendar and the Transformation of Consciousness: “The tzolkin is really a filtration pattern of divine light. This pattern exists in a realm beyond time, in the mind of God, as it were. The tzolkin by itself is thus a pattern for the unfolding of creative energy rather than a calendar.” According to the Ancient Greeks, there are two types of time: Chronos and Kairos. Chronos is chronological or sequential time, a quantitative measurement. A good example is the Gregorian Calendar. Kairos is a qualitative measurement - the time in between or the time as the actual moment or the NOW. Kairos is the time when you honor the sacredness of the moment. Staying in Kairos time and being aware of the day’s (Tzolkin) energy opens your reality to synchronicities, miracles and magic. Today is 13 Ahau, the 260th day of this Tzolkin. Tomorrow, 1 Imix begins a new Tzolkin round. The energies surrounding 13 are holy – co-creation, unconditional love, and the culmination of spiritual enlightenment. Likewise are the energies surrounding Ahau – sun, flower, light lord, enlightenment, ascension, ancestor, unconditional love and awareness of co-creation. 13 Ahau feels like completion coupled with the feeling of powerful light energy moving creation forward. UPCOMING DATES On May 27, 2010 , 1 Imix, there will be only two more Tzolkin rounds (260 days each = 520 days) before the evolutionary shift of October 28, 2011 . Tzolkin Start Date: 1 Imix (Gregorian May 27, 2010 ) Conscious Convergence: 13 Eb and 1 Ben ( July 17-18, 2010 ) Seventh Day of the Galactic Underworld Begins 4 Ahau ( November 2, 2010 ) Ends: 13 Ahau (Gregorian February 10, 2011 ) Tzolkin Start Date: 1 Imix (Gregorian February 11, 2011 ) Ends: 13 Ahau (Gregorian October 28, 2011 ) October 28, 2011 marks the completion date of the Nine Levels of Evolutionary Consciousness according to Dr. Calleman (www.calleman.com). Humanity present now has chosen to be witnesses and participants in this Universal Shift of Evolution. The promotion of fear and anxiety surrounding 2012 is the complete opposite of the emotions that we will be feeling. The evolutionary wave of completion will allow humanity to enter a Golden Age of unity, love and peace. We feel that the Sacred Calendar, Tzolkin Count of Days, will continue as a galactic constant and will serve as a base for grounding as we explore our new awareness. Welcome to the Evolution.
