5 Obsidian (Mirror, Flint)

[Sunday 31 May 2020]

Today, stay centred in your own radiance whilst surrounded by the darkness. Find your own centre and move through the smoke as best you can.

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.

4 Earthmover

[Saturday 30 May 2020]

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 recognise how the tectonic plates of reality are constantly moving and sliding. However, the life force impulse is coherent and underlies the shifting terrain.

Today you sense an enduring underlying interconnection. A reoccurring 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?


The City, by LjL
(inspired by London)

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 synchronising your field with your own energetic foundation.

The key phrase for today is ‘coming into alignment’.

Composite created by Carey

A day to feel energised 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. Recognise 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. 


Alignment: Image from here

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 energised environment and adapt to it, and it will befriend you.

Life wants change.

2 Eagle

[Thursday 28 May 2020]

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.

Composite created by Carey

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.


Base to Heart, painting by Carey

Day 2 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.

[Extra message from Laurence to contemplate today, first posted on 2 Eagle of 25 Feb 2011:]
As often is the case, when doing my early morning qi gong practice, birds of prey were flying overhead and one came very close this morning – I felt the resonance in my movements with the kite.

Today is a good day to see your energy externalised in the shape of a separate ‘thing’ or person and to feel the connective thread between yourself and the manifest object or life form you have drawn towards you.

1 Jaguar

[Wednesday 27 May 2020]

The Jaguar (Ix) Timewave starts today.

Spirits of the Forest, by LjL: '
The forest is a living spirit; everything is alive.'

13 days 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 vitalising and electric. Life is visceral and this gives you the opportunity to cut through outworn defences and to feel connected.

Jaguar Peyotl
Fabulous image from here

13 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.

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


Frogs in Space, by LjL
'The morphogenic fields of life extend out into infinity.'

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.


Image from here

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

Image from here

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

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

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


Anyone remember this kind of view?

12 Good Road (Human, Grass)

[Monday 25 May 2020]

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

Queen Bee, by LjL

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 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. 



Living with an edge of uncertainty does not mean 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.

11 Monkey

[Saturday 24 May 2020]

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.

Cosmic Interface, by LjL

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. 


Image originally found on Google

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 into 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.

Starry Night,
by Vincent Van Gogh, 1889

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.

10 Dog

[Saturday 23 May 2020. New Moon 01:39 Hong Kong time]

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.

Friends, by Laurence James Lucas
'Different species emerge from the same bedrock of life.'

The essential and general needs for us all can be stated simply as 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.


It can also be a good day to have a party.

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

The answer will include people.

9 Water (Moon)

[Friday 22 May 2020. New Moon 17:38 UTC, 18:38 British Summer time (tomorrow in HK at exactly 1:39am)]

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 and blessings, and to 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.


Gratitude to André Eichman
for this photo

What are you grateful for?

The story we have of ourselves underpins our reality experience; it contextualises 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, localised and personal ways. Our own small changes and our intimate struggles mirror the profound change of a species transition.


Image from here

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.

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

Give thanks for your life.

[Note added by Laurence on 9 Water of 13 February 2016, but still entirely 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 it is an inevitable evolutionary transformation nonetheless.

8 Rabbit (Star)

[Thursday 21 May 2020]

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

Sussex Downs, by LjL

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.

Being an 8 Day, today is also a commitment to your realisations from the last timewave.

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 – that is, 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 organisations, good-news whistleblowers 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.


Thank you to André Eichman

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 to contemplate on 8 Rabbit:]
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?


Spiral of Empowerment, by Carey

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. 


Image found on Google

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.
