2 Good Road (Human, Grass, Long Good Road)

[Tuesday 22 September 2020. Autumn Equinox 13:31 UTC, 14:31 British Summer time; 21:31 Hong Kong time. MABON (Sun at 0° Libra)]

The challenges of our adventure on the Long Good Road of Life.

A fork in the road appears for you today, with a chance to open yourself to a bigger quest.

Image found on Google

Today, you find yourself asking ‘What is the way ahead?’ There seems to be two polarised options. In some cases, this really does mean you are seeing a complete change of direction in your future. For most people, however, today just presents you with two choices that are very different in a specific area of your life linked to the issue of community.

Where do you belong and how can you serve, and therefore feel part of, humanity?

Be as an empty cup.

The wisdom of Grass (also known as Good Road or Human) is to remain open. Open your mind and allow the mind to be guided by energy and intuition. Grass is the sign of the ever-present abundance, which is found in the constant growth of nature and the totality of community. People provide your worldly abundance in the way that Nature provides the fundamental abundance for humanity.

Because this is in the Monkey Timewave, do not treat anything too seriously. Monkey says that life is art, even if the game appears tricky.

If you feel a sense of overwhelming confusion, then recognise that the solution will not come from analysis. Do not take the ego seriously; Grass is a humble plant.

Open yourself and recognise that you do not have a solution in your mind. Just accept and be conscious of the two paths ahead.

[Extra message from Laurence to contemplate on 2 Good Road:]
Humanity is choosing its future... every single human being’s contribution of perspective and consciousness counts! However, those who engage with the bigger picture shine more light in this direction...

I remind you that the energy this particular calendar describes is rooted in the Nagual. The Galactic energy that infuses the Earth is a dreaming energy, accessed by the shaman. By following the 260-day pulse, you are awakening your Nagual, your dream self. This requires the art of seduction, without too much mentality.

Carlos Castaneda: What Is A Nagual?
‘The term Nagual has several definitions – one who is good in talking, shape shifter, witch and animal co-essence... Carlos Castaneda used the term Nagual in his books to depict a person who has the skills to guide people to new areas of awareness and alternate realities just as valid as ours.'

1 Monkey

 [Monday 21 September 2020]

Today begins a new 13-day mini-cycle, namely the Monkey (Chuen) Timewave that offers the opportunity to use creativity and humour to bring new energy into your life; 13 days of monkeying around…

with his good friend Scott, February 2008

Today, the trickster energy is high. This is both fecund for deception but also – more importantly – for creative breakthroughs in awareness as you recognise how the whole of life is a theatre of absurdity, humour and extraordinary experience.

Weave some new threads into your life with playful, creative, inquisitive and, most of all, spontaneous acts. Let’s break out a little with the blessings of the trickster Monkey.

Work is play and play is work. Monkey has a tricky sense of humour and challenges us to adapt.

Structured plans will not stay on course, nor work out in a linear fashion with Monkey energy. That can be frustrating; however, Monkey will be offering us a more creative and fun way of performing tasks and solving problems.

Monkey is the Master Craftsman or Artisan, and this particular day, 1 Monkey, is revered by the Highland Maya. A playful attitude yields new wisdom in this timewave. Monkey teaches us that creative play is at the heart of the Divine. Allow novelty into your life and be inventive.

This is a love-life and laugh-permission day.

Stay inquisitive during these 13 days and enjoy the mischievous energy. Serious problems require our engagement, mundane issues require our attention – but the Monkey will teach us that we can find novel, unusual and even what might at first appear strange ways or methods of dealing with life.

[Extra message from Laurence to contemplate on 1 Monkey:]
The Game of Life on Earth is so much bigger than we have been taught – there have been many civilisations on Earth over millions of years...

Monkey offers you the chance to feel the Great Cosmic Drama of Creation and to find a new space of freedom within yourself that transcends this present Enchantment.*

When we enter the implicit realm that can be accessed via the pineal gland/third eye, we encounter a fractal interface. The fast-moving fractal experience of psychedelic trips is a reality, a deeper level of existence, where the psyche is experienced at a faster rate. One thing turns into another into another, before arriving back at the start; then it loops again.

The self-perpetuating nature of our Enchantment is composed of conscious holographic substance. Get more into the flow of the ever-changing yet circulating experience... The Monkey Timewave allows us to access the fractal flow and to incite our craft, our art and our creative engagement with life.

After the Monkey Timewave comes the Lizard (or Seed) Timewave, when the intelligence and plan is revealed. After that comes the Earthmover Timewave, which brings us 13 days of evolutionary synchronisation.**

Follow the story that is unfolding in your life and connect to the effect of the cosmic influx. Be awake and feel into the energy that is unfolding...

Notes from Carey:

* To learn more about Laurence’s groundbreaking model of the evolution of human consciousness – the Enchantments of Life – please visit our portal website.

** The Earthmover Timewave was the timewave that saw us through the Maya Long Count Calendar ‘end-date’ of 21 December 2012, or 4 Ahau (Flower, Sun, Lord). The Long Count calendar measures the Earth’s relationship with the Galaxy and is based on a 26,000 tun cycle (one tun is 360 days), equating to a period of approximately 25,625 of our civil years. Thus, the Earthmover Timewave was the evolutionary synchronisation of the end of one 26,000 tun cycle and the start of another. 

Connect to the 260-day rhythm of the Mayan Sacred Calendar (which is a fractal of the 26,000 tun Earth–Galaxy cycle) on a day-to-day basis, and you will tune your consciousness to the incoming high energy associated with the 2012 era [from 1986 to well into the 2020s] and the Earth changes we see all around us.

13 Dog

[Sunday 20 September 2020]

The swirling reflections of all that you have seen in this timewave tumble through your psyche – a kaleidoscope of self-reflection.

The Earth is in a state of flux, in case you had not noticed! This affords you the opportunity to develop a heightened emotional fluidity, adaptability and responsibility. Keep allowing the energy to flow through you.

Today, 13 Dog in the Obsidian Timewave, affords you the opportunity to ascend to a new level of emotional frequency,

Composite created by Carey,
using images found on Google

As you accept that all you encounter reflects aspects of yourself through multiple dimensions and realms, you move into the space of belonging to more of reality.

The whole Cosmos is teeming with life to such a degree that it is mind-boggling. As life, you belong in life.

As emotions arise, you have a choice about what you do with those emotions. Your choices ripple throughout the multiverse and are reflected back to you as the world out there.

The Ouroboros,

Alternatively: A never-ending stream of unfulfilled needs, wants, inadequacies and unfavourable comparisons to other people can overload you today, as the feeling body goes into free fall. If you look for the root cause of your emotional problems, you will find another problem. Like an ouroboros, one thing leads to another and the last causal reason for any troubling feelings you have is then swallowed by the first definitive answer. 

However, because 13 Dog also offers the opportunity to shift into the flow of collective energy, where you recognise that your emotional nature is simply a reflection of the human condition, you have access today to some salvation and freedom from your emotional challenges.

Release the dependency on desire; give up on your self-preoccupation and recognise the universal sufferings, joys and unions of all people. You belong to life as part of life. You are needed by life, in the way that life has shaped you.

The culmination of the Obsidian Timewave today reveals your human-ness and the universal existence of human needs. Your basic needs, relationship dynamics and behaviour are mirrored all around you. 13 Dog offers us the chance to go to another level of awareness. 

In a celebratory and liberated state, enjoy the commonplace social spaces, the unconscious union of the crowd and the companionship you see all around you.

12 Water (Moon)

[Saturday 19 September 2020]

Clear Water
Today is Day 12 of the Obsidian Timewave (also called Obsidian Mirror, or Flint), ruled by the Water (or Moon) Daykeeper.

Clear Water, composite created by Carey
(note the glyph for the Obsidian Daykeeper
in the centre of the image)

This timewave is all about facing the shadow and becoming conscious of the levels of reality. Obsidian is the cosmic mirror of truth that separates the wheat from the chaff and which clears the perceptional field. It often asks us to sacrifice that which is not working for us. 

The glyph of the Obsidian Mirror (shown in the centre of the image above, as well as below) can be seen as the view looking down onto a Mayan stepped pyramid. The glyph shows us the divisions and boundaries between different realms and entities.

Glyph for the Obsidian Daykeeper
by LjL

Obsidian is the black volcanic stone that would appear to have no reflection, but which is a most powerful tool for scrying and seeing into the deeper dimensions. Obsidian shards are extremely sharp – surgically sharp in fact. The Obsidian energy can cut with precision through to the core, as well as cut out the shadow material for cleansing.

Day 12 of each timewave is the day when it all makes sense, if you have been following and logging the energies thus far. 

Moon or Water is the depth of the soul – true feeling, rather than emotion – and today you can recognise what it is that you can offer people and what it is that needs purifying in yourself.

Glyph for the Moon Daykeeper
by LjL

The cosmic principle of Water – be that emotion, feeling, imagination, astral-psychic plasma or the electromagnetic plasmic field of space – is the energy that permeates through all boundary walls.

The resonant vibrations through the fluid fields of existence create the mirror effect. What we see in front of us and around us reflects who we are, or what we are feeling, on the deepest level.

The clarity of the reflection can be a visceral and shocking realisation that cuts through our sentiments. However, stay with it if you are seeking to know thyself.

Today is a good day to understand and see some of your truest deepest feelings.

11 Rabbit (Star)

[Friday 18 September 2020]

Doors within doors to be opened today.

11 Rabbit is a Stargate kind of day. Maybe it’s not ET contact of the fourth kind for you today, but you might feel the fertility and light that is infusing the day. Where does it come from? It is your monadic essence and it is in resonance and at one with beings throughout the universe.

Image created by our friend Kookie Birjukov
for one of the projects Laurence and I were
working on several years ago

Today is a doorway to spiritual abundance and/or what might feel like a collapse of the light or euphoria into the black hole. The reflection of the radiating light is the toroidal flow back into the centre. Rabbits surge out of their burrows and radiate in all directions, then they all disappear underground.

Light Being Sucked into a Black Hole;

Yesterday, being Day 10 of the Obsidian Timewave, manifested as a frozen moment, a manifest form of energy, which today (as ever on an 11 Day) dissolves… The control and structure of yesterday’s Grasp (aka Deer or Hand) gives way to diffuse and fertile light, which is flowing in toroidal form.

The challenge is how to integrate this radiant cosmic energy without getting scattered. The energy of today is beautiful and subtle, and yet out of resonance with limitation, containment or practical concerns.

Image from here

Creativity and destruction are mirrors. The sense of impermanence of our highs is a clue to the dynamic nature of creation. The cycle of creativity includes the fallow moments, which then lead on to new inspiration.

Explosion and implosion in every moment… 

A good day to give praise to and accept the blessings of life.

‘The holographic nature of reality is revealed in the understanding that the basic unit of all life is a toroid. It is a fractal reality, where the form can be found on every scale of creation. The toroid is not static; it curves in on itself and twists into the centre with an energy that is known as a torsion field. The torsion field generates the spiral pattern of all growth, as in the Fibonacci sequence.’

10 Deer (Hand, Grasp)

[Thursday 17 September 2020. New Moon 11:00 UTC, 12:00 British Summer time; 19:00 Hong Kong time]

Today is all about holding on. What does that mean to you today?

What do you need to hold on to?

Composite created by Carey

Each moment has the potential to grip us; each period of our life is a manifestation of our multiplicity. Each moment offers us the chance to feel totally free and empty – and the idea of total freedom is transcendental. We are here to engage, but with some transcendence. 

Quite often in our lives we are desiring and wanting – this is an existential fact of engaging with life, rather than an error. Most people, most of the time, want more – more freedom, sex, love, romance, excitement, adventure, freedom (again), money, self-expression, recognition, privacy, or at least some of those. This is not wrong, it is just an existential fact.

Created by Kookie Birjukov
for our Storyteller workshop
(January 2007)

Today, hold the moment lightly, knowing all is well and, yes, you really do want to live life more freely and yet more magnificently.

Wanting creates attachment, so we all have this paradox within us – wanting freedom and yet wanting more in life. The mind cannot handle the paradox, but somewhere in the heart and the psyche is the capability to create open structures or conduits; to create the space in which acceptance and vitality can flourish.

Are you gripped by Life? Are you gripped by the Divine Restlessness?

Cosmic Hands,

This is the Life Force – we cannot control it. So we might as well accept that we can be empty and happy in any day, yet during that same day feel an overwhelming sense of Divine Restlessness.

Today, hold on to something and yet allow your energy to flow through the centre.

A good day for controlling aspects of your life in a positive way.

9 Skull

[Wednesday 16 September 2020]

Day 9 is always a day of realisation and Skull brings the decisive acknowledgement of that which has to be cleared out.

You are a reflection of all that is, yet you have your own journey and your own being within the collective.

Image found here

Become clear about your boundaries, structures and axioms; release collective negativity (the lowest common denominator energy) and set a basic intention to be an agent for change.

form of life is continuously turning inside out

Intend to transform, as and when it is appropriate, and make clean breaks from cultural pressures and fear-based scripts.

Navigate the streams of impermanence to your advantage. All situations can be turned inside out, just as life is continuously turning inside out.

[Extra message from Laurence to contemplate on 9 Skull:]
Today you can see the outcome of future situations and events, based on how things are unfolding from this moment.

A SIGNIFICANT ZONE OF CHOICE IS UPON US NOW.

For the next few days, envisage a better world and do not comply with mainstream media suggestions... DO NOT COMPLY with mainstream visions for the environment or global change... 

Real change can only be seeded from the autonomous free-thinking individual, free from the global agenda being pushed in your face.

Free energy; image from The Tesla Archives

The world has never been more abundant. All of our environmental problems and energy problems already have solutions; these solutions have just not been released, but eventually they will. The tide cannot be turned back.

The challenge is to clear out any negative energy present at this moment in your field. Clear out the dross of negative expectations so as to affect the outcome and future manifestation more positively now. 

Remember the saying: ‘It doesn’t have to be like this.’

We found this beautiful image in a Google search several years ago
and have used it for some of our workshop notes to illustrate
the toroidal nature of the Earth's energy field
(which is the same for all living beings).
Unfortunately I have not been able to find the
original artist to add a proper credit.
My thanks to whoever created this.

[On 9 Skull of 9 June 2016, Laurence wrote:]
‘My research continues on the timeline change we are in the midst of. The portal is opening to the archaic past, namely the global empire of Atlantis. We are moving into resonance with Atlantis, as evidence of its existence from all sciences (kept out of the mainstream narrative) is becoming overwhelmingly convincing.’

8 Serpent

[Tuesday 15 September 2020]

Hold steady.

Bringing intelligence into form requires daily discipline. Our intentions, desires and goals come with the challenge of living them day by day, paying the price to be paid and sustaining them long after the excitement has worn off.

Composite created by Carey,
using ouroborus image
found on Google

The impermanence of excitement leads us to novelty addiction and confusion about what we actually want, as well as an apathy regarding what we really need due to the effort and illusory nature of all form, as well as the dissatisfaction we sometimes feel about what we get.

Image found on Google

All entities are responsible through universal decree for their own survival and flowering. Survival and the perpetual game of creating one’s life could be viewed as a monotony.

However, the enlightening truth is that life is a constant celebration. 

Today, make the effort to emotionally commit to keeping your party rocking through accepting that you need what you need.

7 Lizard (Seed)

[Monday 14 September 2020]

A day of harmonic resonance with your Master Template, your essential Divine Intent, your Life Purpose.

Today offers you a reflection of the basic intelligence – or the divine matrix for life – throughout existence.

Composite created by Carey,
using Laurence's painting 'Consciousness and the Plasma Brain',
overlaid with an image of the planets

You can tune into an aspect of your life purpose (or a general sense of your soul intention) by observing the underlying gnosis you feel during the day. Trust the connections you see, for they represent this unique matrix; however, do not over-interpret the future unfoldment of how the seed will grow.

Enjoy the sense of harmony you feel with the inherent intelligence of life and, more specifically, with the ever-present original intent for your life.

Lizards can regenerate lost body parts, as the template of their bodies are particularly powerful. You can similarly restore the template of your life today, to some degree.

Image found on Google

The space you created yesterday allows for the light of the seed or template for your life, encoded before incarnation, to shine through. The seed of your life can be seen in a general sense through what is reflected to you from dreams or from the external world. 

The resonance with your template will create the urge to move beyond the white noise and the distractions that have moved your life away from the potential of the original implicit purpose you were born with.

Just be conscious of that fact. Do not get into frustration; just be in resonance with the ever-present seed for your life.

[Extra message from Laurence to contemplate on 7 Lizard/Seed:]
Once into the womb, the house, the inner sanctum that is a fractal of the universal mystery (yesterday being a Foredawn/House day), today the Seed of Light appears as if by magic, through a resonance with the intelligent plan of Life.

I felt it fitting to reproduce this page today,
taken from the handbook for our Life Purpose workshops,
to help illustrate the texture and energy of 7 Lizard.
I have also added this page as a downloadable high-res

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

[Sunday 13 September 2020]

Processing, clearing and creating space. Today is a day of movement in the subconscious and unconscious.

Enclosure, by Laurence James Lucas

Connect to your inner sanctum. The deepest part of your soul is a place of mystery that serves the purpose of nourishing you with a potent emptiness and privacy.

Today, allow the potentials to reorganise themselves.

Wherever we were and whatever we were doing,
Laurence always took time in the early mornings
to connect to his inner sanctum,
to delve into the mystery of his soul,
to let go and to create space.
His daily practice of tai chi, yoga and
shamanic journeying nourished him deeply
and thus allowed him to deeply nourish others.

The different expressions of the psyche – the multiplicity of needs, desires, complexes, wounds, frustrations and considerations – organically self-organise as you gradually let go of trying to control life, releasing the need to know.

This creates the space. 

Be at peace.

[Extra message from Laurence to contemplate on 6 Foredawn:]
The vast expanse of universal consciousness creates firstly by separating self from self through the Word, the activating Spirit of the Cosmic Breath, which is the Wind character in the Mayan Sacred Calendar (yesterday was 5 Wind).

The next step is to create an enclosure, a womb, the centre of the holy trinity. The womb is the 'House' Daykeeper character of today. It is the all-important place of safety for us – our home, our inner sanctum. It is a place of mystery that serves the purpose of nourishing us with a potent emptiness and privacy.

On 6 Foredawn of 26 September 2010,
Laurence decided to nourish himself
by spending some of his day outside
with his paints, brushes and some canvases

[Extra message from Carey:]
Today, 13 September 2020 in the Gregorian calendar, would have been Laurence and my 12th wedding anniversary. Here we are 'stepping forward onto the path and beginning the journey', signing our names at the civil registry office, Central, Hong Kong. Today I will stay at home, processing and clearing and creating space.
