2 Obsidian Mirror, Sunday 31 October 2010

Apart from the picture above, a good symbol for contemplation today is two mirrors facing each other.

Inevitability as compared to flexibility. Today some things are inevitable, but within that framework there is room for flexibility. Do not get too rigid. Stay open to responding to the finest details with full consciousness.

Today is a day where you can potentially operate with great clarity by separating your truth from that which is not relevant to you; by separating clear mind from distorting emotions and separating essential feeling from confused thoughts.

The Challenge of the Day:
The duality of transformation and evolution, the shadow and the shadow of the shadow and the reflection of the reflection of the reflection into eternity.

The challenge today is to open the heart to embrace the paradoxes and polarity; to sit with them and accept them, but not to make decisions about one's whole life.


The limitations of the linear mind can be seen today. The linear mind always says "Yes but..." to everything. There is always a "Yes but..." with the linear mind.

A great day for clear action and immediate decisions, if you just deal with each thing in its own right, as it appears, in the context of the moment.

1 Earthmover, Saturday 30 October 2010

Follow the Synchronicity trail to find your new evolutionary pathway in the next 13 days.

The timewave theme seeded today is one of evolution; groundshaking change that can synchronize us with a new level. It does require some adjustment and integration to be in synch with the new level of reality, but change is inevitable.

To some degree, you have the opportunity to move your life on in an integrated manner during the next 13 days. A little earthquake of disruption is part of that higher integration, so bear that in mind. Shake up, throw away and dispel anything blocking forward momentum.

Direct-ion

Connect to the dynamic force of change. Listen to it, feel it and be strong, so that you can go with it in all confidence. A little superhero attitude inside of yourself would not hurt!

13 Vulture, Owl or Warrior, Friday 29 October 2010

The 13th day is a day of disintegration and release of the timewave as it opens up or releases its energy for the next timewave.

The Warrior, Vulture and Owl are the living symbols of holding one's centre, keeping hold of your essential truth.

Today you might be experiencing a disconcerting diversity of truth moving out all around you. The challenge is to hold lightly a multitude of perspectives without losing your energetic centre.

A flood of relativistic perspectives can make one think that all truths are equal. Equally, the populist perspective that life is an accident and existence is neutral can leave a person spiritually inert and acting purely out of self-interest.

Life requires a strong choice. Whatever the situation, choose benevolence and abundance. Look to enjoy some gain, but not at the expense of others. Choose life. Choose that life will flourish; choose that there is plenty for everyone.

Recognize that life is grounded in consciousness, love and abundance.

Whatever the situation today, choose Life.

12 Eagle, Thursday 28 October 2010

Today is a good day for perspective. Your perception will be connected to real human issues, to normal everyday living, yet with the benefit of an elevated view.

The 12th day of all timewaves brings us some understanding, on a linear-mind level, of the whole timewave and its theme, its reason and teachings.

Eagle means that this mental understanding is through the Eagle's vision. Eagle sees the whole world, but then focuses on one particular point on the ground in great detail. Eagle is powerful yet compassionate and is able to hone in on that which is relevant.

Today, stay in the worldly realm of the skies and the hills -- don't go skywalking far out in the cosmos, stay within the Earthly realms -- then see what catches your eye on the ground. Focus upon that detail for it will reveal the intelligence that is inherent within this timewave and will nourish you will an understanding of relevance that you can share.

11 Jaguar, Wednesday 27 October 2010

On the frequency of the Mayan Calendar, 11 days always somewhat dissolve the structure we tuned into or found on 10 days.

As you follow the timewave, you get to see how the rhythm moves you first one direction, then another; into one archetype, then on to another, bringing you into contact with the dancing Kaleidoscopic nature of the Galactic frequency as viewed and experienced from Earth.

Today, being the day of the Jaguar with day number 11, brings a consciousness and quality to the day that, at least to some extent, allows you to feel more clearly the transparency of your ideas and the energy behind them. This can be quite disconcerting on one hand, but beyond that, if you look further through the dissolution, the benevolence of life in all its glorious mystery is revealed.

Jaguar’s expression is instinctive and occult. Jaguar is happy to roam in the darkness of the mysteries. The Jaguar is the shaman/woman and protector of the shadowy earthly realms; call upon Jaguar today to dissolve negative unseen energy.

10 Reed or Skywalker, Tuesday 26 October 2010

Ideas from Heaven meet ideas from Earth.

A day where you see the structure of your higher mind processes. The 10th day of the Lizard timewave allows you to see the present state of your overmind, your higher thought forms.

An overview idea that has arisen from your intention meets and meshes with the descending ideas from your abstract ethereal template.

The seed energy of this timewave solidifies into a thought form, from which an aspect of your reality will manifest later on down the line.

Today, see the new program or programs you have created within your psyche from your recent intentions, either consciously or inadvertently.

9 Human, Grass or Good Road, Monday 25 October 2010

A day of "Aha!"; a sense of knowing that you already knew it.

Human or Grass reminds us that life is abundant -- far beyond our mind's capacity to understand -- yet the greatest abundance of life comes to those who are humble.

The Long Good Road of Life teaches us humility, but it does not require us to close our minds or hearts.

Being humble does not mean you cannot dramatize your life, nor that you should live small. Enjoy your journey today and remember -- life is like a fairground ride.

8 Monkey, 24 October 2010

Monkey is also known as "artisan" to the Maya.

Today is a day to commit to your creative projects, to see the creative potentials in your work and to not take your commitments seriously. Still commit, but take it lightly.

Monkey 8 is a day of commitment with humour. Allow the spontaneous to enter into your activities without destroying the essential intent.

7 Dog, Saturday 23 October 2010

A good day for relationships. You can feel the resonance with others today.

7 Dog offers you the opportunity to feel how your intentions, your essential self and your life purpose resonantly fit with those of other people.

Enjoy people today. Be prepared to keep an ear open and look at people you encounter with a fresh perspective.

6 Water or Moon, Friday 22 October 2010

The water of purification, flow and feeling is encoded with subtle filaments of structure today. A day of releasing and dissolving blocks to reveal an underlying story that is forming in your imagination.

Sense the wholeness and geometric patterning of your soul-felt impressions. Allow yourself to follow the rhythm of the day by honouring the gentle impulses that emerge from the depths of your being, moving you from one space to another. The movement of the day paints a complete picture if you stay with it.

The painting is from here by unique artist and my very good friend David Hugo Sheridan Parker.

5 Rabbit or Star, Thursday 21 October 2010

Today is a day to be in your centre -- the space from where you emanate your light, your inner radiance.

Look all around you. Take a 360-degree view; see the full circle of your energy. You have planted seeds and set things in motion in every direction. Be in the centre and feel the creative essence that has sent ripples out in all directions. Your sound is going out like a subtle pervasive field of energy, interacting and gently colouring the whole conscious field of life.

Rabbit is the proliferation of all things in all directions -- fertility and abundance.

Or, you might feel disconnected from your centre. The key to feeling centred in the place of emanation is firstly to acknowledge and feel the pain of disconnection. Rabbit can be superficial and is easily attracted to all that appears light, bright and beautiful -- the glitz, the glamour and the obvious aesthetic. Today, you are asked to find the true beauty of the subtle immanent and all-pervasive Light.

The primal wound of disconnection from the Source and the central Light first surfaced in our awareness in early tribal culture. The primal wound is carried by the whole species, but we each feel it in a different area of our lives.

Reconnection to the Source does not involve getting rid of the wound; there can be no 'absolute' healing or total control of the psyche if we are to fully reconnect.

Live with the awareness of the subtle pain of imperfection, impermanence and the fragmentation of life without dissolving into victimhood and you can be a conduit for the radiance.

4 Deer or Hand, Wednesday 20 October 2010

Today open your proverbial palm and see what you are holding. Anything that we desire too strongly would not actually satisfy us or make us happy. Grasping brings anxiety and inner torment; in the extreme, grasping creates hell and the hellish moments of life.

Happiness is the true acknowledgement of what we have. Having-ness is joy.

The Deer is powerful yet graceful and somewhat elusive. The refined consciousness of Deer requires both male and female aspects of our psyche.

Today is a day to seize the moment, to develop ideas or plans and go the next step without necessarily knowing the outcome. Take the next step then leave it at that for now.

3 Skull, Tuesday 19 October 2010

A good day to make many small decisions. Be ruthless if necessary. "Get real."

Be energized with the vitality of this day through those little completions; cut off and restart, clarify your life through the ability to release clutter and distractions.

2 Serpent, Monday 18 October 2010

The 2nd day of each timewave presents the duality that exists within that specific timewave. The challenges of survival and making a living can come to the fore today -- the issues of health versus money.

It can be a challenging day, or just a day of opposites. 2 Serpent represents the dual impulses of the life force inherent within all growth -- security as opposed to the urge to grow.

Allow the two forces to be. Feel the creative tension that builds, as this is your power, which you will soon be able to harness.

If you feel tense, be sure to get into the body today. Move and dance.

1 Lizard or Seed, Sunday 17 October 2010

The Lizard or Seed timewave gives you the opportunity to be centred in your essential template, which is the subtle manifest form of your divine essence as expressed in this life. Your template holds the basic intention for your life, your dharma and the structure within which your freewill operates. Your intentions for different aspects of your life are the seeds that you generate within your mind and imagination; the more aligned you are with your master template the more effective your intentions are.

Lizards enjoy the abundance of the Sun. They are masters at storing the Sun's energy, just like the seed does. Seed is the living example of universal abundance. Every seed contains a life, every living thing produces seeds in outrageous amounts. Nature does not adhere to "one plus one equals two" -- the totality of life is not just the sum of its parts, but an ever-expanding proliferation of life.

Absorb the light of the Sun consciously today to enhance your awareness of your divine intelligence. Recognize that light carries the seed for all manifest form --  it is intelligent -- and in so doing, you increase the connection to your master template.

This next 13-day timewave gives you the opportunity to plant many seeds for your life.

Seed people are community networkers, as each seed is both separate unto itself yet embodying the morphogenic field to which it belongs. Connect to your resonant energy fields, for they extend beyond the limits of your mind. Human intentions only grow and fully flower in the fecundity of community.

Today, just start with the simplicity of recognizing that there is a template of your being and for your life.

13 Dark House or Night, Saturday 16 October 2010

Let go and jump into the mystery; open yourself to go beyond what you know. The energy of today is  conducive to creating space in your life for the renewed clarity of intention that will be emerging next week.

A great day for contemplating the stars and the cosmos and feeling the bliss and awe that comes when you allow yourself to reach out into the unknown.

The Monkey timewave ends with cosmic awe. Monkey draws upon this experiential truth to retain his humour and spontaneity.

Picture from apollo.com

12 Wind, Friday 15 October 2010

The Monkey timewave reveals its order and rationality. When it falls on a 12 day, Wind is more stable; the mind works in an orderly fashion. The trickster element within your life reveals its wisdom in a way that makes sense -- if you are listening.

Wind is the transmitter of ideas, the messenger, the activator. It can be impatient, anxious or angry. Today, harness the power of Wind and bring it under the control of your reasoning --  this will allow you access to exciting and fresh ideas that motivate yourself and others.

11 Crocodile or Dragon, Thursday 14 October 2010

Today we are asked to nurture our creations.

The strong confidence of yesterday's light dissolves into a brooding need to have some security, to slow down and open to the feminine.

Allow more into your area of love; it is a day of acceptance and nurturing.

Nutrients from Arcadia flow into your psyche and you can share the love.

The primal birth of the Earth, the Goddess realm, resonates through the ethers as the door opens to the ever-present birth of Earth.

10 Lord, Sun or Flower, Wednesday 13 October 2010

A day of manifest light.The Monkey timewave manifests with the light within the trickster, which is humour with grace, the radiance of the heart opening.

When the face is lit up with a smile, the light of the sun can be seen.

Today is all about smiling.

That does not necessarily mean grinning with recognition at everyone you pass in town today... it could be a song or a dance that brings a deep smile to your face.

Smile with the recognition of your divinity and the blessing of being sovereign of your personal reality. Be conscious of natural light today; today is a day when the subtle creative light of existence, the wholly affirmative energy within life, manifests and is easily accessible through the agency of natural manifest light.

Monkey tells us that life is drama, full of dark humour, paradox and trickery, and that the key to playing the game successfully with a positive attitude requires that we draw upon the light.

Today, bring more light into your being by smiling.

9 Storm, Tuesday 12 October 2010

The Mayan sacred calendar measures a different but ever-present realm; it is the layer of the tapestry of reality that connects the Earth, Nature and the human world with the greater cosmos and this day is a wake-up day.

A day of realization -- not a rational understanding, but a soul-felt liberating connection, a memory from the future. A reminder that you were meant to drop that 'thing' you had already planned to let go of, or to break out of 'this'.

A sudden bolt of lightening acts to cleanse, purge, purify and catalyse you. This could include meeting some strange but familiar person.

A good day to feel the spirit of freedom that lives within you.

Storm 9, a day to be alert to a peak experience as a hole in time opens up in the most unexpected place and in the most unexpected moment.

8 Obsidian Mirror, Monday 11 October 2010

Committing to the game of life requires accepting the totality that results from your desires, which includes living with the shadow of what you want. However, the price is never as high as it might seem. The shadow is a scary spectre that dissolves with the light of your courage as you open up to new dimensions.

"Mirror, mirror on the wall: Who am I?"

Today is a day where you can recognize how you are attracting what you ask for. You have the life that reflects the totality of your emanations, what you put out, and you are challenged to commit to accepting that, to seeing the shadow and the price of your desires. However, looking deeper into the smoky mirror of eternity, you will find that other worlds open up as you make the commitment.

Day 8 of the 13-day timewave is a day of balanced, controlled commitment; it is the energy of feeling prepared. Obsidian is a day of truth and surrender, of accepting the shadow and the universal reflection of one's reality at the moment. However, as we are in the Monkey timewave, there is a subtext of  "Do not get too serious or rigid with your commitment."

Surrender your emotional tightness so as to open the heart and be a divine mirror.

7 Earthmover, Sunday 10 October 2010

7 Earthmover is a high-energy day

A good day to feel a resonance or actually synchronize with the impulse of life to change towards the beneficial and the magnificent.

Take time to remind yourself and create some space to experience the fact that all of nature is alive, just like you; feel the vital fizz of life, see it all around you.

Alternatively, a day to enjoy the magical surprise of a spontaneous element that comes into your life which takes you off track -- meaning off the linear path of linear mind, so that you can integrate and synchronize with the force of evolution.

Life has an intelligence beyond our personal and immediate understanding. What gift is here for you today?

6 Vulture or Warrior, Saturday 9 October 2010

Flowing strength, clear harmonics, relaxed and moving with the ebb and flow....

To be a Daykeeper means to follow the rhythm of the 260-day calendar each and every day. Slowly, patiently, receive the pulse of the vast reality beyond the mundane realm of worldly matters. The pulse resonates at the edge of the Earth's atmosphere where our planet is looking out into the depth of the cosmic ocean. Simultanously, this pulsation is immanent within all material concerns.

Today is a a day of receptive, responsive action and surrender, with an easy strength of mind. Assume a relaxed stance and be ready to respond with nobility and creativity.

5 Eagle, Friday 8 October 2010

A great day to see yourself in the centre of your world. The difference between being isolated and dislocated from all that circles you and being connected and engaged with your world is whether the heart is open. Keeping the heart open requires an enormous effort and diligence in the world today, for we also have to be discerning as to what and who we open up to. Utilize the clarity, compassion and precision of the Eagle to locate the most appropriate place in your world today and then apply your efforts there.

A day of empowerment. Speak from your vision, because the vision you have today is nicely centred and you are able to recognize the joy of material reality whilst holding the wisdom you have accrued.

Empower yourself with the Eagle energy today and you will attract more abundance into your life -- if not today, then soon. The clarity you have today needs to be appreciated and recognized for its magnetic ability.

4 Jaguar, Thursday 7 October 2010

The creative process is a lateral process; the foundation of its energy is derived from the mystery and the muses.

The shamanic world is fully inhabited with spirits, all vying to contribute to the open channel of your psyche as you endeavour to express the moment and your state of being, whether by painting, writing, dancing or solving problems.

Today, stay relaxed so as to be alert to the relevant moments when you can achieve something. Do not try to work hard all day on something. Do not labour your projects.

Today you can create some structure in your work fairly spontaneously, but do not overrun, know when to stop and just chill.

3 Reed or Skywalker, Wednesday 6 October 2010

A day of fresh ideas. Open yourself to the sky, send up a beam of light and receive inspiration. Open yourself to the descending guidance from higher intelligence that will be coming down into your expectant neural network.

A great day for inspirational energy comprised of abstract ideas and complex big picture patterns. The energy of Reed 3 will be illuminating and will reveal the plethora of potentials and opportunities inherent within this Monkey timewave. Appreciate the fact that the nature of the day might make it hard for to settle into one thing; accept the restlessness you feel as product of the higher or more exploratory calling you have.

Monkey is curious and inquisitive and the timewave energy sets the scene for new creative solutions to your tasks. Today, you can access the knowledge that comes from understanding cosmic forces and planetary movements. A good day for astrology.

A good day for exploring the pristine clarity of ideas unencumbered by emotions.

2 Grass, Good Road or Human, Tuesday 5 October 2010

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.

Today, you find yourself asking "What is way ahead?" There seems to be two polarized options. In some cases, this really does mean you are seeing a complete change of direction in your future. For most people, 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 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.

As this is 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 recognize that the solution will not come from analysis. Do not take the ego seriously; Grass is a humble plant.

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

"A Nagual´s Dream" by Jefferson R Weekley, above

I remind you that the energy this 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.

1 Monkey, Monday 4 October 2010

Starting today, 13 days of monkeying around.

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 or 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.

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

Monkey is the master craftsman and this particular day, 1 Monkey, is revered by the Highland Maya. A playful attitude yields new wisdom in this timewave.

13 Dog, Sunday 3 October 2010

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

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 freefall.

If you look for the root cause of your emotional problems, you will find another problem. Like an ourubus, 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 recognize that your emotional nature is simply a reflection of the human condition, you have the opportunity today for some salvation and freedom from your emotional challenges.

Release the dependency on desire; give up on your self-preoccupation and recognize 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 Mirror timewave today reveals your human-ness and the universal existence of human needs. Your basic needs, relationship dynamics and behaviour is mirrored all around you. Dog 13 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. Go be in the herd, or from the privacy of your psyche be at peace as one of the sheeple.

12 Water or Moon, Saturday 2 October 2010

Clear water.

The 12th day of each timewave is the day it all makes sense, if you have been following and logging the energies thus far. This 13-day period is the Obsidian Mirror timewave, the cosmic mirror of truth that separates the wheat from the chaff and clears the perceptional field. It often asks us to sacrifice that which is not working for us.

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

The Glyph of the Obsidian Mirror, shown above, can be seen as the view looking down on a Mayan stepped pyramid. The glyph shows us the divisions and boundaries between different realms and entities. The Obsidian Mirror 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; the Obsidian energy can cut with precision through to the core and cut out the shadow material for cleansing.

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 realization that cuts through our sentiments. However, stay with it if you are seeking to know thyself. Today is a good day to see at least some of your true feelings

11 Rabbit or Star, Friday 1 October 2010

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's your monadic essence and it is in resonance and at one with beings throughout the universe.

Today is a doorway to spiritual abundance.

Yesterday, being a 10 day, the Obsidian Mirror (the current timewave) manifested as a frozen moment, a manifest form of energy, which, as ever on day 11, dissolves.

The control and structure of yesterday's grasp gives way to diffuse and fertile light. A good day to give praise to and accept the blessings of life.
