13 Skull

Today you find your detachment. That which interests you and that which you own will not possess you.

Today allows for the strength of mind to cut through fears by detaching from lower-level dramas and willing yourself to transcend to a freer realm of activity.

Thirteen is the master number of spiralling movement and growth; it is in resonance with the Lunar Cycle and is a Fibonacci number. Thirteen is the movement into mystery, as we leave the orderly and rational temporarily behind. Skull is the power to cut free and start again.

Today, you have the opportunity to cut through illusion, to free the self from unnecessary attachments. The teaching of today is to recognize the aspect of the self that is free from obligation and is uncompromising. Although we all have to make adjustments and allowances to be part of the world, there is a line that is drawn which the world cannot cross. Your line is based on your ethics, personal axioms and, ultimately, your unique mode of being without undue sentiment…

Even if you renege a little (by allowing it back into your life later) on that which you reject now, there is great strength in making an energetic stand of rejecting that which you consider to be standing in the way of transformation and growth. This may include social peer group pressures. Do not acquiesce to that which seems to have power over you, if it is not feeding you; yield on the surface if you really have to, but not in the core of your being.

Remember that life is forever changing and you can continually start again and free yourself from anything that is unduly compromising your essence.

The Jaguar Timewave ends today. Jaguar is a warrior of the night and is in service to the Earth goddess; Jaguar is a spirit that reveres the wild and natural, who is able to face the darkness and flourish. Jaguar illuminates the shadow with other-dimensional light. Jaguar frees us from the sterilizing aspects of civilization.

12 Serpent

Understanding the importance of spending time in nature and the vitality it gives you.

Be in the natural body, connected to nature and allowing your mind and emotions to follow the energy it gives you.

And....

A day of understanding the instinctive level of reality. A day where you can connect to your own survival instinct and survival impulse. Today is a good day to recognize how the biorhythms shape our psychology and how they are interlinked with the invisible environment.

The snake is the manifest expression of kundalini life force, the power to live and evolve. Serpent issues are issues of sex and power. The battle for power in the world takes place on many fronts and includes the agendas of many covert groups on Earth, but ultimately the whole drama of our evolution is part of the cosmic theatre. We exist in a living universe and life is everywhere. Our kundalini plugs us into the cosmic drama and the evolutionary imperative of creation.

The 2012 effect is a recalibration of the Earth’s energy field. The total consciousness of the Human Species is a significant, arguably the primary component of the environment within which we move around. Our environment is the total planetary organism, as defined by the Earth’s energy and consciousness field, that interpenetrates and encompasses the electromagnetic field.

Our task is to stay conscious and to recognize the planetary level of change. By so doing, we come into alignment with the evolutionary necessity – even a small minority of people doing so will ensure survival and growth. Awakened consciousness resonates with the evolutionary impulse and therefore acts as the conduit for the transformational impulse.

Human culture emits a frequency and the frequency needs to be upgraded. As individuals, we cannot take on the responsibility of changing the culture directly – it is overwhelming and the overt power is in the hands of lower consciousness, in particular those souls enslaved by power lust.

However, as individuals we can act as nodes and conduits – unseen by the external radars – for the energy force to flow through.

Quite simply, recognize the larger view of time and space and connect intellectually, intuitively and emotionally to the evolutionary energy of change that is unmistakable. You will then be coming into alignment with the life force currents.

Good for you, good for me, good for us all.

11 Lizard (Seed)

Opening the doors between what are normally compartmentalized realities. A day of modification; allow new energy in.

Seed is the first stage of abundance. All plants, or animals for that matter, produce a disproportionate number of seeds; nature allows for what we call ‘waste’ by producing the seeds for new life in magnificent abundance. The Lizard is a sophisticated absorber of the Sun and has a capacity to store sunlight. Sunlight, and the subtle energy of prana, is the pre-manifest seed of life.

If you feel indebted, today offers the energy for your liberation.

Today is the 11th day of the Jaguar Timewave – the Jaguar Timewave is all about an instinctive level of reality. The Jaguar prowls the shadows, the underworld and the night with a relaxed alertness, knowing that opportunity is omnipresent. Eleven is the number of adaptation of form; it is the open gate, the frequency of the transparency of all form.

Today, do not solidify your situation with rationality – instead be of an open mind, be flexible and spontaneous like a cat.

In the shadow of the world, new life, light and opportunity gestate. Be confident about the true abundance of life and allow yourself to absorb. Respond to the glimpses of feeling that life is offering you abundance, with a playful and easy affirmative gnosis.

Our cat, Nougat, on the roof terrace,
surrounded by the seeds of new life

10 Foredawn (Dark Night, Dark House, In the House)

The subtle, almost indefinable presence of the soul is ubiquitous.

The subject becomes object as you become conscious of the atmosphere. The environment you walk in is an environment of consciousness. The physical world is not solid. A good day to walk through walls.

The manifestation of the dreamlike space between the worlds.

The Cosmos and the atom are mainly space, but space is an emptiness that is full.

[Extra text from Laurence, posted on 20 November 2011: ]
The picture above is of Real De Catorce, Mexico, a place I visited in 1997 with no money and rather unexpectedly. After a few days of enforced semi-fasting, I had a vision of 2012 whilst sitting here at dawn, overlooking the mountains.

The town is slightly haunted. It is an ex-silver-mining town with crumbling walls and buildings and is gateway to the peyote desert. It is melancholic and beautiful; the land is wistful and so are the people.

The atmosphere of Real De Catorce at that time for me was wholly permeable and it was where I stayed at the end of a six-month trip that yielded the harvest of the Mayan experience.


Click here to read Laurence's poem of his vision, experienced while in the Foredawn space, of a city he came to believe was in China, and later – after we had held shamanic workshops there – felt sure was a vision of Guangzhou. 

9 Wind

A day of clarity. After the almost undifferentiated energy of Crocodile comes the activator energy of Wind.

Nine Days are always wake-up calls on some level.

Can you hear that booming voice within you, telling you to speak or write with surety? Can you hear the voice from deep within you, which is a decisive, uncompromising activating force that is either welling up or surging to the surface of your psyche?

You remember a truth that comes from beyond time.

Today is a good day to be decisive.

8 Crocodile

Today, 8 Crocodile, make the commitment to move into accepting who you are and feeling the nourishment that life is looking to give to you.

Nurture yourself and others; be patient with your desire to renew your life; set a deep resolve for change that recognizes the reality of how ingrained your habits are.

Activities that emphasize sustenance and maintenance are in accord with the Mayan energy of the day. Practical activities that support the nourishment of your life are highlighted. Keep your life going, and feel the viscous emergence of that which is emerging.

A day of commitment to essential acceptance and trust.

Being the Mystery
Crocodile is also the primal force that gives birth to all things. What new undifferentiated essence has been born in you? The birth of energy today is one of appreciation, lovingness, protection and care, rather than a surge forward with any goal-orientated project.

Whatever you are doing, simply appreciate the juice of life and sustain life with a sense of the slow, forward movement that emerges from the depth of your primal roots.

Feel into the mystery and recognize the ongoing emanation that springs from the Goddess.

[Message from Laurence:]
Healing Superstars
One of the myths of the new age is that to heal ourselves means to rid ourselves of our stuff.

I suggest ‘healing’ actually means acceptance, accepting all the levels of one’s being. You were a child and now you have an inner child – I don’t care if you are a world leader, a guru, a political journalist or a hard-nosed scientist, that brat and/or little sweetie still lives within.

The healing is the acceptance, which then allows us to gain some detachment from the lower levels of our psyche. We do not need to be ruled by the lower levels of our psyche, but we can acknowledge and accept them.

Photos of our life here on Lamma Island:

Triple Goddess Tree in Tai Peng; Yung Shue Wan Bay (with a three-pronged wind turbine in the background over the hill). Views like this provide nourishment and help us feel 'the ongoing emanation that springs from the Goddess'.

7 Flower (Sun, Lord)

Harmonic Resonance with Your Divine Light
A day of feeling the resonance with the subtle light. The frequency of light you are attuned to could come in many forms – ancestral guidance, simple radiance, a sense of power, an opening of the heart.

To feel resonant, keep the day as simple as possible, if you can. Do not be tempted to expend it all; stay sensitized and allow the natural flowering to occur and you will shine where it is appropriate.

A day where your divinity is empowered.

Express your sovereignty easily; be in your authority naturally.

[Extra Message from Laurence, extracted from a post on 7 Flower of 10 Nov 2016, but still relevant today:]
The people cannot look to government if they want to change the world – the change HAS to be about consciousness, research, awareness, investigation, small gatherings and grassroots systemic consciousness from the space of stillness of mind.

When change happens to an individual, he or she can often regress to old coping mechanisms. This is what is happening now on a collective level. The old theatre is completely finished; there is no return. But the world will try everything to find the solution in the old ways, just as any individual does when in crisis.

Do not look to the masses or the system, come back to centre and do not let your buttons be pushed.

[Note: Laurence wrote this in response to the 2016 US presidential election and the general sense of negativity in the socioeconomic and political world today, as a reminder to us of our own instinctive intelligence and our ability to evolve in a new way, as sovereign individuals.]

6 Storm

Ideally, dance through the day. 

The tension and background chaos keeps you on your toes and keeps you responsive, alert and moving into the new space of freedom that is continually opening up in front of you. 

Staying one step ahead brings you a sense of exhilaration as you recognize that you enjoy the novelty of the Storm Day.

Respond to the deep body impulses, the consciousness within the cellular matrix, as knots within your energy field reveal themselves and then dissolve as you keep on flowing.

Systemically cleanse the soul of concern for the world, clear the negativity, free the mind from the global drama, break free from the matrix throughout the day, acknowledge the emerging fears, darkness and negative hooks that are flying around...

Keep clearing and breaking free.

5 Obsidian

‘Though I walk through the valley of shadows…’

What do we see when we look out into the world with the penetrating X-ray eyes of a cat? We see the dark agendas, the lower-spectrum frequencies, yet we know that this is just the terrain we walk through into the illuminated landscape.

The smoky mirror of romantic yearnings and infinite possibilities comes with the sadness of never being able to fully embody all potential.

We incarnate through a funnelling vortex. The vortex is a darkening veil of forgetfulness that spirals down to a point of light, which is the Star Gate that we pierce as the soul jumps through into the physical world.

Today, listen to the courage of your heart to look through the dark mirror and smoky veils to see the light source.

Today, more of your soul seeks to incarnate or descend into form, into the light of day.

A good day to turn obstacles into opportunity through being centred and reflecting back energy. A negative carries the seeds of a positive within it, just turn it inside out.

Find your own centre and move through the smoke as best you can. Stay centred in your radiance.

4 Earthmover

What energy are you drawing from the Earth? What are your roots and what has taken root in your life? Survival is dependent upon connecting through the body into the Earth force.

The basic imprint of the evolutionary agenda in your life – and in Life in general – is present in this day. Life is forever changing. Today you can recognize how the tectonic plates of reality are constantly moving and sliding. However, the life force impulse is coherent and is underlying the shifting terrain.

Today you sense an enduring underlying interconnection. A re-occurring idea or feeling that you have had throughout your life resurfaces into your awareness.

The 260-day pulse of the Sacred Mayan Calendar reveals the Galactic pulse on Earth.

The associations of the Gregorian Calendar, with its 24-hour clock, 7-day week and 12-month year, weave solid baskets of thought all around us. Can you walk in this contextual structure and yet also awaken to the numinous potency of the 260-day vibration?

Create roots in the shifting context and find your own sovereign connection, whilst navigating the fluctuating social environment. The world is in high flux due to the evolutionary change we are in the midst of it; it is down to each of us to create our own foundation each and every day.

Today is a great day for synchronizing your field with your own energetic foundation.

'The City' by LjL.

Laurence loved walking around in the city of Hong Kong, with its glamorous pulse and its 7-day week structure, while still connecting to the 260-day pulse of the Mayan Sacred Calendar and maintaining his deep and strong connection to the Earth force
and his own energetic foundation.

3 Vulture (Warrior, Owl)

The key phrase is ‘coming into alignment’.

A day to feel energized by your power. If you connect to the Mayan Sacred Calendar frequency today, you will feel strong and confident.

Draw upon the wisdom of the past, or your innate wisdom, to feel the move towards the centre. The central column within you carries the essence of all that you have experienced.

A day of moving towards an integrated confidence; a confidence based not on arrogance, but instead based on your own experience.

A good day to validate and reinforce that which you know. Recognize that your life experience gives you authority to be the author of your life.

There is a need to go forward with resolute strength, knowing the social terrain is uncertain, as energy is being released from all outworn structures. Fortune favours those who can keep on reconnecting to their centre on a daily basis, moving forward with Sacred Warrior attitude tempered with elasticity.

We have to accept the world is in a state of massive change and that there is an air of uncertainty and fragility – and yet there is the possibility of an incremental jump forward. From this foundation of knowledge, we can find the resolve to work with the energy and we can prosper.

It is not a time to be weak or to seek excuses. Remember to continually re-find your strength on a daily basis and that personal responsibility to your sovereign calling is required. Feel the pulse that comes from within you; do not expect the social environment to be a comfort. Stay away from the mob and be your own person, for all our sakes.

Quiet resolve, open alertness, determination to keep coming back to the core, pick yourself up, dust yourself off and keep on stepping forward. Feel the force of a highly energized environment and adapt to it and it will befriend you. Life wants change.

Laurence James Lucas, my own Sacred Warrior, who loved life and embraced all.
Today is four months since he made the transition out of our Earthly realms into the Cosmos. Forever loved.

 

2 Eagle (and New Moon)

Today, dual visions compete in your soul; two futures present themselves. This is a good day to see the inherent contrast of your life, your self, your needs and your aspirations.

Emotional tension can be strong today as your heart tries to reconcile your sense of the ubiquitous duality of life.

The underworld door has opened and the world has two visions – one is dystopian, the other is egalitarian abundance. Within this polarity lies creativity from the friction, but the good should win out over all.

Day Two in every timewave is about polarity and also about relationship. The contrast of opposites helps us differentiate and gain great clarity about the whole, leading to a more conscious unity.

Hold the dual forces within you, knowing that this tension is part of the creative process.

1 Jaguar

The Jaguar (Ix) Timewave starts today.

Thirteen days ahead in which you can experience the enchanting nature of reality. Jaguar consciousness pulls you into the evocative environment, the captivating and seductive magical thread that runs throughout existence. Reality is enchanting and the world of rationality is interesting – but the mind-dominated reality of our society is a limited and watered-down version of existence.

The Jaguar Timewave brings you into the experience of how everything is alive; this is vitalizing and electric. Life is visceral and this gives you the opportunity to cut through outworn defences and to feel connected.

Thirteen days of Catlike instinctive connection begins today; a chance to be responsive to the energy of the Earth and to your immediate environment. The energy is more feminine than masculine during this timewave.

The Maya consider the Jaguar to be the Shaman. Instinctive intelligence is body-based telepathic connection – images and thoughts of a telepathic nature arise from the result of visceral connection to the electroplasmic currents that surround you.

Today gives you access to your instinctive sovereign power – the courage to be who you are without apology and alert to the fact that everything you need right now is available right now. 

Are you riding the waves?

Feel the way the energy of the Sacred Mayan Calendar shifts from one cosmic coordinate to another, teaching you how to shift your assemblage point, as in Toltec Shamanism.

'Spirits of the Forest' by LjL

13 Reed (Skywalker)

Expansive Light
Free the mind from the dictates of necessity and free the soul.

Today the mind might feel scattered; this is veiling the freedom inherent within the day. A good day to construct complex patterns of knowledge, or to acknowledge that a higher level of complexity will emerge after this day.

The higher mind feels free to roam in all directions and observe the abstract. Welcome bizarre thoughts as they push the boundaries of your consciousness deep within the Earth, way out into Space and beyond the limits of the normal Time restraints.

Explore Atlantis, the Akashic records or just enjoy a sense of vitalized intuition.

Today, energy is in a heightened state of flux; it has a chaotic element which can lead to a new level of organization.

The structures and patterns of life are re-organizing themselves.

Stay connected to the benevolent intent of the life force that oversees all disruption.

'Frogs in Space' by LjL.
His comment on this painting is: 'The morphogenic fields of life extend out into infinity.'

12 Good Road (Human, Grass)

A day of understanding that is an open-ended understanding, rather than being conclusive. Enjoy the journey of insights as the adventure unfolds.

The 12th day of every timewave gives us a clear sense of the message of the whole timewave. Crocodile Timewave has a basic theme of nurturing, birthing and female wisdom.

The Grass Daykeeper, also known as Human in the new age system, and the Good Road by the indigenous Maya, refers to the abundance of the human community and the universal quality of life’s journey.

Everyone is on an adventure, the enjoyment of which is dependent upon retaining an openness to life and recognising the possibilities of new adventures around the next bend. What stops this adventure is when the mind becomes fixed and absolute about life – our own life or the nature of life.

Today, embrace the uncertainty of these times and the edge of uncertainty about knowledge and you will be in resonance with the path of humanity.

An edge of uncertainty does not mean you/we know nothing. It is easy in today’s overwhelming information environment to throw our arms in the air and announce that all truth is equal and therefore nothing can be embraced. This is a cop out. You have learned much from your life experience and this needs to be honoured. So walk towards the horizon of uncertainty with confidence in what is true for you.

Now open your heart to life before you. 

Today, you are an empty vessel on an adventure, willing to receive the nourishment that life is always offering you.

Queen Bee, by LjL

 

11 Monkey

Today is a day to loosen up. Trickery and cosmic humour force you to play, whether you want to or not. See the funny side. Be lateral. Today is a strange mix that offers a chance for fresh inspiration, if you can let go of the mind’s obsessive need for control.

Today you are being asked to create some space for more expression, more emotional elasticity. It is less about conclusions and solutions, more about spontaneity and laughter – perhaps a little twisted, quirky or delightfully perverse.

The texture of today – the energy of 11 Monkey – invites you to unusually nurture your soul, for the soul needs to be elastic if it is to flourish.

Monkey frees up the emotional body today in the 260-day count. Allow yourself to be more imaginative about the world we live in and the nature of time and space.

The 260-day Tzolkin (the Mayan Sacred Calendar) is the calendrical calibration of the soul’s cosmic nature as it interfaces with our density – which is to also to say that the Tzolkin is the key to understanding the galactic interface with Earth and this is the ‘secret’ of the 2012 era. Although we can all see the sociological and environmental effects of the 2012 phenomenon, the essence of 2012 is a re-calibration of the Earth with the Galaxy, creating an evolutionary imperative to raise consciousness in the decades after 2012 itself.

One of the more obvious effects is an alteration to the temporal substance –we seem to have less time in a day. The consensual timeframe that we experience at present is losing energy and a less dense level of experience/consciousness with a larger timeframe is being empowered.

Those who have their self-interest heavily invested in the outgoing density are attempting to close the doors, to keep us locked into the economic theatre and that density. But if enough people shift their focus out of the mainstream economic and political game, then the old theatre will dissolve to reveal a more abundant and expansive terrain.

Of course that is easier said than done, but one way or another, a new focus and energy attention will emerge. Our role is to shift our attention and our energy into alignment with the evolutionary imperative.

Find the role player warrior within, the part of yourself that is strong enough to play the game with a sense of mission and humour. 

Cosmic Interface by LjL

10 Dog

10 Dog in the Crocodile timewave manifests as our emotional needs being fully apparent. Today you can see the manifest state of your emotional body and really feel what it is you really need.

The essential and general needs for us all can be simply stated as being happiness and an avoidance of suffering. These are mostly found through relating to others, whilst having an attitude of gratitude about what is good in our experience right now.

Today is a day of communal emotive connection, or a good day to be peaceful and to feel the truth of what you need.

Ask yourself what it is you truly and honestly actually need for yourself. Need rather than want.

The answer will include people.

'Friends' by Laurence James Lucas.

9 Water

A good day for conscious cleansing of the soul. A poignant day.

Today is a day of transcendent awakening and soulful reminiscences; a day to give thanks, blessings and make offerings. If deep and possibly disturbing feelings emerge today, change the muddy waters by transcending the disturbance and by moving into stillness, through feeling that which is good in your life, right now, as it is.

You can regain the peace in your soul and the balance in your psyche quite quickly today by tuning into gratitude. What are you grateful for?

The story we have of ourselves underpins our reality experience; it contextualizes the physical world, technology and the total social arena.

We are not immune to the total environment – and that situation then seeps into our lives in unique, localized and personal ways. Our own small changes and our intimate struggles mirror the profound change of a species transition.

So we have to come back to the moment and be in our own situation with a heightened sense of gratitude, patience and humility for our life as it stands. Give thanks for your life.

Today is a day to reclaim lost feelings and lost soul... 

                                                        
[Extra text added by Laurence on 9 Water of 13 February 2016, but still relevant today:]
Pluto in Capricorn (2007–2023 approximately) is all about deep profound and total change, the evolution of our whole culture. Transformation on this scale requires a journey to the depth of the unconscious and the radical revision of human origins, our concept of evolution and our concept of the cosmos — in other words, a whole new meta-myth for the human species. This will be a slow transformation, but an inevitable evolutionary transformation nonetheless.

8 Rabbit (Star)

A day of organized harmony, as the unlimited abundance of Life flows into a simple manifestation. The macrocosm crystallizes in the microcosm. The profound funnels into the commonplace. Recognize divinity and then make light of your day. Commit to beauty.

Acknowledge your prosaic truth, then let go of the preciousness and commit to the surface; make the light of your life be in your life. Today you can experience surprising enjoyment and release from hard work – make it easy, for god’s sake.

Do what you know you have to do, with a light heart, and today you will find that the energy makes light of your tasks.

All that Glitters Is Not Gold
In this era, there is an important element to Rabbit that we need to consider. The light, beautiful, shiny, novel and exciting, ie all that intoxicates, is not always good.

In particular, we now have a burgeoning awareness of the dark and manipulative spiritual energies that masquerade as light. Many spiritual organizations, good-news whistle-blowers and channellings are sourcing dark energies that create interference with spiritual sovereignty. We need to be careful not to give our essential spiritual power away to mass sentiment–led opiates.

The solution is relatively simple. Connect to your own higher self or divinity in your practices, do not be afraid to think for yourself and honour your deep intuitive responses to information. Even if it is not bad information as such, we have to ask if it is appropriate to our path.

Mass sentiment memes and movements in particular are subject to the attention of spiritual engineering. Do not emotionally invest heavily in anything that is hugely popular and intoxicating – it is not appropriate in this evolutionary transition period.

Call upon and connect to your higher self and then proceed from there. It is not difficult.

 
Extra Message from Laurence, first posted on 8 Rabbit of 18 Feb 2011, then again on 8 Rabbit for the following 5 Mayan Sacred Calendar years:
 
The evolutionary imperative in our world is increasing the flow of energy and dissolving old forms or constructs noticeably faster. In this environment, it becomes harder to hold onto that which we consider solid; we start to wonder what is tangible? Is anything tangible? Is anything real? Can we rely on anything?

Yes, indeed, we can rely on life much more – in fact we have to rely on life more, for we have no choice but to operate on a deeper level of faith. The forms and constructs we operate with and in are becoming more subtle. In becoming more subtle, they are in fact becoming more truly real.

The old solidities of absolutism, common sense surety, confidence in rationalities or even confidence in blissful ideology dissolve at a faster rate in the accelerated flow of consciousness.

And so the heart has to open.

Each gradient of velocity—the graduations of faster-flowing consciousness—are increasing the levels of ‘complexity consciousness’, where we have progressively more time, for we are incrementally—a little bit at a time—entering a greater dimension of eternity.

Love never dies.

7 Deer (Hand, Grasp)

On one hand, you need to let go; on the other hand, you need to hold on (control everything). Today you are able – or challenged – to find the mesh that is in the middle.

Come into resonance with the harmonics of the day. Tune into different frequencies by being flexible and also strong enough to adapt to the wave of the day.

The overall energy of today requires finesse to tune into the subtle ebbs and flows; listen to the melody, but don’t drift away. Recognize and utilize the intuitive and feeling-based tools you have, for today is the perfect day to heighten your subtle senses and also for being responsive to using the tools for appropriate action.

A good day to be conscious, both internally and externally.

To be conscious in this way means to be willing and able, to be responsive and adaptive and to adjust to the energies of the moment. This is the life skill of utilizing surrender and will, acceptance and action, receiving and intention.

The importance of an intuitive, feeling-based focus has to be balanced with some creative direction.
