11 Deer (Hand, Grasp)

[Thursday 31 March 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.

10 Skull

[Wednesday 30 March 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.

[Extra message from Laurence to contemplate on 10 Skull:]

You do know that there is something you need to stop doing. Yes, you do know, don’t you...

So stop doing it.

9 Serpent

[Tuesday 29 March 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.

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.

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.

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.

8 Lizard (Seed)

[Monday 28 March 2022]

Today holds the image of a compressed vortical tunnel...

Composite created by Carey

Day 8 is a day of commitment. You planted seeds in the last timewave — some of them now need watering and attention. An intention started might need more of your engagement.

Thank you to Robert Burton

Day 8 is always a day of compression of the non-locality consciousness of your spirit into time and space. This is a not the full manifestation of your divinity; it is not full embodiment, nor compression into full density. But compression, nonetheless, for the free-roaming essence of your being.

Enjoy the sense of bringing your Master Intention closer to manifestation. Feel the squeeze and breathe into it. Relax and trust as potentialities narrow in exchange for actualising potential. 

Movement, specifically spin, is fundamental to existence; celebrate the dynamic movement of life that maintains enduring structures of experience due to the consciousness, the intelligence and the intent that pervades creation.

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

[Sunday 27 March 2022]

Between the worlds; a still point between the past and the changes to come.

The prerequisite for transformation – for fundamental change – is the ability to look into the shadow and to see the positive aspects that are hidden in the darkness and the negativity.

Today, there might seem to be a disconnection, a discordance or a point where things do not quite come together; something strange, disjointed or dislocated.

It is not an error. Be mindful of the gap and move into the gap.

Image found on google

Do not be afraid of any disturbing feelings. Feel the comforting feeling that exists in the space where reality has ripped. Tune into the surreal quality of the day and find the enjoyment inherent within it.

Today is the day where we welcome in the alchemical soil for change. This might mean a resonant encounter with the shadow of your inner life and the gems hidden within the darkness.

Notice your gems.

6 Wind

[Saturday 26 March 2022]

Receiving, conveying, moving, linking, forming.

Follow the flow of communication. Jump from one thing to another, never settling too long in one place or on one bit of information, but just long enough to be stimulated by the message.

A great day to feel you are moving forward after yesterday’s gathering of energy.

The power of Wind is controlled nicely on Day 6. A good day to present a powerful and provocative idea in a cohesive and concise manner.

Maybe speak the truth...

5 Crocodile

[Friday 25 March 2022]

Look all around you, be at peace and accept it all. Recognise the nourishment that life is offering.

Five Keys to the Goddess, by Carey

Today, 5 Crocodile, is a day of beingness, of nurturing yourself by sitting in the centre of your world and accepting all that surrounds you.

Vicky Baker Eichman

You are a divine being, but nobody exists in isolation. Everybody has a diverse range of needs and all those needs can potentially be met. Just enjoy the way that life sustains itself and offers sustenance in all new situations.

The Goddess is forever feeding reality.

Even with change and disruption, life is sustainable.

A good day to feel at peace and to have a moment of exuberance as you let go of fear.

The day is quiet. Can you be?

4 Flower (Sun, Lord)

[Thursday 24 March 2022. Today marks five years in the Gregorian calendar since the passing of my beloved Laurence. Soar free my love; always in my heart and mind]

Today is the day that teaches us to be in our sovereign psychic space, protected by the confidence that comes from our divine selves.

Enchantments Centre, Lamma Island

A day of self-establishment.
 
You are what you are. No apology needed.

Today – 4 Ahau (Flower, Sun or Lord) – is a day which tells us that change requires a foundation of confidence, based on recognising that you are a divine being of light.

Every person is divine and every person, if conscious of that, should rightly be confident and glowing.

Thank you Robert Burton

I know there is a fine line between confidence and arrogance or ego inflation, but today consciously settle on the side of confidence.

Your sovereign power is found when you celebrate life. Pay homage to all that is beautiful and beatific; by so doing, you are beauty and you are divine.

Laurence paying homage to all that is
beautiful and beatific.
Thanks to André Eichman

Today, claim your sovereign spiritual power for yourself.

We need you to do this now, more than ever.

[Extra message from Laurence to contemplate on 4 Flower:]
Tune into the fact that this is the same day in the Mayan Sacred Calendar as it was on 21 December 2012,* so that we can connect to another octave of the 2012 influx.

As in Western astrology, the Mayan astrology we use here is a fractal system, which means that today, 4 Flower, is in resonance with the Maya end date of 20:12, which signified the end of one chapter in the evolution of the human species and the beginning of a fundamental transformation.

Today, you have the opportunity to glean personal and direct inspiration about the nature of change and how you can best navigate it in this transformational era.

Setting the Parameters of Change
A day where you can potentially feel the different boundaries in your energy field – the boundaries and space you now exist within, as well as the extended boundaries of your realisable potentiality.

On 4 Flower of 15 February 2010, I experienced this in the hills of Lamma: Looking out over the sea, I was suddenly aware of my personal space, the living space around me and the living space I walk around in.

Today, be aware of who you are, without sentiment, and then feel into the potential energy that lies just beyond your present state.

You are changing and evolving. Set the scene for your unfoldment as you will step into a larger space and a larger expression, perception and experience of life.


The expansion of your reality will involve an expansion of membership and an identification with yourself as being part of, and belonging to more of, the human species. Growth creates a greater affinity with more of life.

Today, become conscious of your energy spaces and the different scales of environment within which you have your being.

* Note from Carey: In calendrical terms, 21 December 2012 was the end of the then-current ‘Great Cycle’ of the Mayan Long Count Calendar, which comprises 13 periods of time, each called a baktun, covering a total period of approximately 5,125 years in the Gregorian calendar. The 2012 date is considered by some to be the end of the Fourth Sun, or the fourth creation era.

[A personal message from Laurence, posted on 4 Flower, 21 December 2012:]
My day started many hours ago with a greeting to the dawn. I was met with a spectacular display as four kites, our local birds of prey, rolled and clustered around each other in the sky, directly in the east, four hundred yards in front of me.

Then one flew back to me and, facing east with me, hovered about 12 feet in the air and 20 feet away from my right shoulder. Together we greeted the dawn of a new day.

3 Storm

[Wednesday 23 March 2022]

The Quickening
The restless spirit is seeking novelty and freedom, spontaneity and vigour. Your hunger is good; the vibration of change is shaking the air.

Movement and Flexibility
Feel the storm out there, respect its power. The electrical charge of the psychic environment seeks a pathway into your life. Observe the novelty of the day.

Today is a good day to follow and act upon any unusual or different opportunities. Generate energy by doing something out of your ordinary.

Be alert; don’t think too much, just go with it. Be with the energising vibration.

[Extra message from Laurence to contemplate on 3 Storm:]
In all timewaves, Day 3 allows us to move out of the block we might have felt on Day 2.

If you had a day of constant self-reflection without resolution yesterday (even leading to inertia), you might well find that the 2 Obsidian tension actually created an energy that transforms today, 3 Storm, into a degree of creative resolution through vitality.

The 260-day cycle of the Mayan Sacred Calendar (known as the Tzolkin) is an enormous asset to creativity and understanding as it allows you to plug into the emerging energy – the gestating energy of potentiality – and all that is seeking expression.

It doesn’t matter if you have only just discovered the 260-day cycle. It will take a few cycles to fully tune in, but you will feel it after only about two cycles – and then you have rare access to the soul realm.

The key to learning any subject is to connect to nature and to the cycles of reality, to observe life and – yes, indeed – to feed the mind with information, but then to hand it over to your soul. Give it to the unconscious.

As we are witnessing, the small-context box of material science and mainstream conservatism has reached the ends of its usefulness. The oxymoron of modern pragmatism is that it is totally impractical for the continuing progression of human life.

Storm by Annie Knibb. Thank you!

The rational mind is just a tool, to be used but not revered. It is the intuitive, creative, heartfelt approach that needs to dominate the rational mind.

Follow the energy and texture of the Mayan Sacred Calendar days. So simple, yet so overlooked. It will reveal its richness to you, and it will allow you access to the creative realm of the soul.

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 by separating essential feeling from confused thoughts.

Image from here

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 polarities; to sit with them and accept them, but not to make decisions about one’s whole life.

Flipchart by LjL

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.

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

Create compartments for your life today.
