5 Jaguar

[Friday 23 December 2022. NEW MOON 10:17 UTC/GMT; 18:17 HK time]

Today is a day when you:

1. Walk into and feel at home in the emotional jungle; instinctive and wild, free, belonging to no-one, yet never fully alone.

2. Feel a slight disconnection and alienation that never settles, as life is always encroaching.

3. Instinctively feel connected and part of all reality, loving the universal matrix that you are prowling in, recognising it as a gameplayer reality.

4. Experience a dynamic alertness to life all around you, as you are conscious of the immediacy. Things lurk in the shadows all around us, yet we are protected by our sovereign power and instinct – visualise the magnificence of the black panther.

Jaguar is the emotional energy of anticipation – emotive alertness – that arises from your centre in the instant before you relate to anyone or anything. Your emotional centre is a bubbling feeling, full of mystery and movement, instinctive and responsive to other living creatures.

From your centre, you can connect to the four directions of East, South, West and North, as well as Up and Down.

Talking with Crows
I could not sleep last night after 2.30am due to this waning quarter moon, which was aspecting my natal Mars. Eventually I got up at 4am, sat on the roof swatting mosquitoes and enjoying the gradual awakening of the day. I got out to my special wild garden by about 5.45am, feeling tired – no way I was going to do a full ceremony. But, as I often forget, the best things happen without ceremony as such. I just did some processing and simple energy exercises, and thought, ‘Well, I will wait until 7am, then go home.’ I was simply enjoying the early morning heat and chorus.

to these tricky, humorous messengers.' LjL

At 7am exactly, my friends the Crows turned up. They live in the hood, but like to stay hidden except for special occasions. There was a small group of them very close, making a hell of a racket. So I talked to them and they talked back, of course.

One thing I was wondering was how many of them were there – three or four, perhaps. At that point they flew as one and revealed their number. Five... of course, 5 crows on 5 Jaguar.

The rest of the conversation is between me and the crows.

4 Reed (Skywalker)

[Thursday 22 December 2022. WINTER SOLSTICE at exactly 05:48 HK time. Sun at 0° Capricorn (Summer Solstice in the Southern Hemisphere). Blessings to all for Yule!]

4 Reed (also known as Skywalker) offers you the opportunity to see all sides of your relationships, your emotional state or your basic needs from a higher space.

Uncredited image found on google

A day where you can detach from your emotional involvements to see them more clearly. Meta-programme your emotional body.

The challenge today is to not be too fixed about your ideas and opinions. See your emotional script and then set a small intention based on where it is you would like to be.

Be conscious of any issues you have at the moment, but, rather than fuelling the problems and issues, be true to the higher ideas you have about who you are, your life, life itself and human nature.

Accept and understand, yet rise above the emotions.

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

[Wednesday 21 December 2022. WINTER SOLSTICE at exactly 21:26 UTC/GMT; tomorrow at 05:48 HK time. Sun at 0° Capricorn (Summer Solstice in the Southern Hemisphere). Blessings to all for Yule!]

Today is about stepping forward onto the path and beginning the journey.

On the Long Good Road of Life, we are guided by invisible friends from the Spirit World.

Walk with joy today as the energy moves out of yesterday’s polarity. If you feel stuck today, just do something – it is one step at time.

A good day to talk with other people, maybe lots of people, without necessarily worrying about direction; just get energy moving.

Know that life itself is intelligent and will guide you.

The rational mind – the intellect – cannot ultimately guide you, but the mind is not to be negated. Use your mind, whilst knowing that you cannot reach an ultimate conclusion. Life cannot be fully worked out. However, mental effort enables us to ask better questions – which then supply new partial truths, which then lead on to even clearer questions.

Being guided to step forward on the path

So it is we move forward.

Step forward with an openness that values the mind as a tool, but not as the determiner of your reality, and you will be on the road that is your destiny.

This day reminds me of the three worlds of the shamanic universe and the multiple paths that emerge from the different paradigms of astrology, shamanism, developmental psychology and just about anything else.

The different pathways of learning and experience all start to converge after a period of time; all novelty-led explorations eventually lead us to integrate. The interconnections and essential truths will eventually reveal themselves, if you continue down the road.

Trust in the journey of life.

2 Monkey

[Tuesday 20 December 2022]

The challenge of the Dog Timewave, as 2 Monkey tells us, is how to hold two opposing views and beliefs; how to entertain the fact that differences between people and their needs and their perspectives is okay.

Photo by Carey

A good day to not take contrary viewpoints or feelings of those around you too seriously. It’s okay!

This includes realising there will always be emotional discrepancies within yourself, your truths and your actions.

Photo by Carey

The continual flow of your Divine Creativity and the machinations of the Monkey Mind can get in the way of the emotional needs in relationship, or can be a source of fun and spontaneity within relationship.

1 Dog

[Monday 19 December 2022]

Today begins a new 13-day mini-cycle in the 260-day Mayan Sacred Calendar, made up of 20 such cycles. Today is 1 Dog (Oc).

Poppet, the ex-hilldog

The Dog Timewave begins today, with its themes of the emotional body, needs, emotional cravings, habits, patterning, love, companionship, boundaries and protections, feeling part of community, feeling connected to other beings and the question of belonging.

Poppet,
who, after much thought,
chose to belong to our pack

The Dog Timewave is all about those you love, those who share our journey; it also about giving and receiving guidance – and that includes to and from Spirit Guides.

Call upon your Spirit Guides to help you during this timewave.

Sambal, RIP,
always in our hearts and
always our protector

The Dog is companionship in this world and the next; the Dog guides us over the threshold into the next life.

Sambal,
my beloved Guardian Angel Dog,

Who are your companions and where do you belong? A good time to be with others and to schedule in events with others, as you synchronise with the pack.

Companionship: Chocolate and Nougat

With this new 13-day timewave of companionship, relationship and guidance, ask yourself if you need a guide. Or, are you are needed to be a guide? Be open to following a guide and/or to being a guide.

Ride the ebb and flow of emotions in this 13-day period, specifically in regard to relationships. Love the ones you love.

Chocolate

Territory: See your boundaries defined as the timewave unfolds.
 
In this timewave, you can potentially develop understanding of the rules, emotions, populations and inhabitants of different territories, both physical and multi-dimensional.

Who shares your path with you on this frequency of consciousness?

[Extra message from Laurence to contemplate on 1 Dog:]
I love the way the 260-day Mayan Sacred Calendar changes direction. For example, the previous timewave (Earthmover) of ground-shaking evolution is followed by this emotionally based Dog Timewave.

The 260-day pulse is a quiet but potent frequency that sneaks up on the consciousness as we gradually open doors in our subconscious to attune to the frequency of Earth within the Galaxy.

13 Water (Moon)

[Sunday 18 December 2022]

A day to offer incense.

Photo thanks to André Eichman

A day of gratitude and a day to surrender to the cleansing waters as they dissolve all blockages to the new sprouting energy that is already transforming your life.

Day 13 says ‘Let go and celebrate the end of the timewave.’

The dissipative consciousness cleanses the mind of thoughts.

Make an offering of gratitude for your life.

The 2012 Era and the Message of 13 Water 

Evolution and transformation – which is the theme of this, the Earthmover, Timewave – requires the dissolution of blocks in our perception concerning the immediate potential and imminent reality, so that we can emotionally accommodate the next new reality.

The next scale of consciousness is a far bigger environment of the psyche. This is the spiritual reason for acknowledging contentious issues, such as Atlantis, the UFO phenomena and other anomalous experience, research and testimony.

LjL surrendering to the cleansing waters,
Isle of Wight

The soul is like water, but the mind compartmentalises reality. The boxing and filing of information into relevant and irrelevant trays has been necessary for ego development. Now, however, in this 2012 era [1986 to well into the 2020s], it is time to dissolve some of the filters.

Increasingly, it is not enough to just take a ‘spiritual perspective’, to meditate or to simply have a psychological or sociological viewpoint. Instead, we are being pressed to have a full integral perspective.

The next scale of reality is planetary, so we are being impulsed to start releasing our compartmentalised walls of mind, to open to the totality of experience that is co-existent here on Earth – the Immanence.

The species is now required to engage with the areas of reality that have been kept hidden, for the new landscape of the psyche exists on the other side of the Shadowlands that stands before us.

The jewels are hidden in the murky realms.

12 Rabbit (Star)

[Saturday 17 December 2022]

Today, 12 Rabbit, is a day of coherent light and a day of clarity.

A good day to organise your consciousness. The diversity of your thinking, or the diversity of your emotions, or the diversity of your intentions can find some coherence today.

You have the opportunity to understand the new energy of this timewave that has transformed you in some manner. You have the opportunity today to integrate quite effortlessly.

Image from here

Your thoughts – which may have been scattered – can coalesce naturally and effortlessly today.

The many radiant thoughts and emotions you have today can come together as a coherent understanding – if you tune into them all as products of light, for they are all emanating from you.

You are a ball of light, a star, a singular monad.

[Extra message from Laurence to contemplate on 12 Rabbit:]
Today, 12 Rabbit (Star) in the Earthmover Timewave – which is the same timewave that led us through the 2012 Winter Solstice – reveals to you the omnidirectional potentials for change that are present due to the 2012 influx. A good day to feel how the 2012 effect [from 1986 to well into the 2020s] is manifesting.

11 Deer (Hand, Grasp)

[Friday 16 December 2022]

A Day of Flow 

After yesterday’s solidity – possibly even harshness, for some – we get a contrasting texture today, one of plasticity and liquidity.

Feel the flow and hold lightly

Have you noticed the textures of days? Time itself has a range of qualities and textures, and the Mayan Sacred Calendar enables this understanding.

Navigate the waves of energy today with intuition and some reason, surrender and strength. The lightest of touches is needed – the impulse to seize an object or an idea too tightly needs to be restrained.

A portal opens up. A river appears that leads towards a transformed state, an evolved paradigm, a new sense of reality...

Surf the flow with balance and poise, without looking too far ahead to the promised land.

Keep a rein on the excitement and enjoy the flow. Feel the continuum that flows through us all, as things emerge and dissolve in the river of the seamless unity that is the immanence of life.

[Thursday 15 December 2022]

Endings and new beginnings, from one thing to another, from black to white.

A good day for no-nonsense practicality and for letting go of that which is ready to be released.

Your life has changed. Day 10 of the Earthmover Timewave manifests as change. You have let go of something and have regenerated; you are cutting away dead wood and unnecessary sentimentality and are ripe for newness. Even if you cannot understand it logically, you can sense it instinctively.

Photo by Carey

Today is a fundamental shift. Release that which needs to be released.

Today you can see and feel the recalibrated aspect of your life; you can see and feel that something new has emerged within you – it will not necessarily be dramatic or spectacular, but you will be conscious that something new has gradually emerged.

See it and acknowledge it, and you will reinforce it.

9 Serpent

[Wednesday 14 December 2022]

The Earthmover Timewave offers us change. Day 9, which in this timewave is ruled by the Serpent Daykeeper, suggests that we wake up to the end of one mini-cycle of activity or focus, and come back to the body, to survival issues and/or issues of personal power.

Birth of New Worlds, by LjL

Today is a day to survive and flourish on the next level of reality. A day to awaken to your future upgrade and recalibration, as the environment of our reality continues to change.

Today you feel a power surge, a sense of your passion. Today you are conscious of the life force – sexuality, power and survival – all of which are charged by the life force. The kundalini life force in your body is your personal instinctive power that is derived from the species’ will; it is the impulse to survive and to evolve.

Kundalini Awakening

Serpents are highly adaptable. So is the life force, which is instinctively driven to solve the paradox of survival versus security (the latter being opposed to change).

Day 9 brings the awareness of large cycles of time and with it the connection to that which is seeking completion and that which is complete.

You are impulsed today to do what is necessary for your survival and will feel a sense of passion for life. See what is seeking completion; complete something.

Shiva-Shakti

What would empower you, if you work towards it? Where are you ready to change? What skin can you shed? What are you working towards?

Just feel those drives; do not get stuck in the head. You do not need to think about it all, nor work it all out through analysis.

You will be called to action. An impulse from the body will activate your actions with some urgency.

Kundalini Rising

You might become aware that a thread of time has ended as the result of your activities, so be here now in the body.

The nexus of eternity converges into the instinct that arises in each moment through your life force. The life force is not merely yours, but is one head of the thousand-headed Cosmic Serpent that keeps life alive and flourishing.

Your simple but inspired action now affects the future.

Follow the call to immediate action.
