A calendar is the center of the world’s consciousness. The Gregorian calendar is the only world calendar that is not based on natural cycles. There are 365 1/4 days to a cycle of the sun, and basing the calendar on 365 days, twelve months and varying length of days, including a leap year, hinders us in a lot of ways. The calendar that most cultures including the Mayans and Tibetans use is a 360 day, 13 moon and 28 days month. This follows the natural cycle of the moon and a woman’s natural cycle. In fact I think the Gregorian calendar was invented to dissuade people from following the Moon Goddess and magical rites in general. The Mayans actually have two calendars one based on the 13 moons and another called the Tzolkin, which is 260 days. Thirteen For the Olmec/Mayans the number 13 was magical. In reality this number is also magical in our society, but it has been subjected to bad press. As well as 13 moons there are the, 13 disciples, 13 original states and much more. So the powers of the world in their infinite wisdom decided that 13 should be an unlucky number and perpetuate that myth through all of their filtered media. In the Secret law of attraction was the one thing that the elite did not want us to find out, as they knew control would be out of their hands. This is just one thing in a whole list of things that the elite practice amongst themselves, yet dissuade the common people from using. The Mayans in fact may not have been the people that sacrificed millions. The conquistadores who came to Mesoamerica may have slaughtered the Mesoamericans including the Mayans, Aztecs and Incans for gold and silver and then changed the history books to make it look like the Mesoamericans were a homicidal race and needed to be cleansed by the church from their pagan ways. Olmec The Olmec are the mother culture of the Maya civilization and elements of the Tzolkin have been found at Olmec sites. The Mayans had gained considerable shamanic skills while foraging and hunting animals. Even when they settled down into cities they didn’t want to lose their lore, as they had learned how to travel in the lower, middle and upper worlds for knowledge. These were worlds accessible by the sacred tree the magical tree that connects all worlds. The Mayan calendar was brought back to the Maya culture by a Mayan shaman who traveled to a black hole and entered it, coming out the other side into a white hole. When he came out the white hole he saw the future of our Universe and knew that the Mayan Calendar long count would end when our sun crossed the galactic center. He then met Tzolkin the time keeper of the Milky Way, who gifted the shaman with a new calendar, which the Mayans called the Tzolkin. This calendar connects the energy of heaven with earth so that what occurs above is reflected below. Based on a woman’s birth cycle, which from conception to birth is 260 days, it has 20 day signs or symbols in combination with the numbers 1 to 13. The 20-day signs correspond to one month of the Long Count Calendar and the 13 numbers correspond to the amount of days it takes the moon to go from new to full, and then another 13 to go from full to new. The 26-day moon cycle is the time it takes for us to actually "see" the start of the full moon, which then can be viewed for three more nights. The Tzolkin is a divination system that kept count of days, and this kept them in contact with the spirit world. The importance of these cycles cannot be underestimated and every person has a different combination of number and symbol, which are not repeated for 52 years. Ian Lungold is an expert on the Mayan calendar and in his video he explains that the Mayan people were known by their birth names, my name is “3 Seed” and with this information the people would know what I am here on this planet to do. In my case I am a natural net worker who is working to unite people by uncovering hidden deception and secret influences. To find out what your number and symbol are this is the link http://mayaportal.lucita.net/ Long Count The long count describes the development and demise of the Mesoamerican civilization. Mayan astronomers had already calculated in the long count when our sun would cross the galactic center, December 21, 2012, which was called the end of time and working with their sacred numbers and the tun, a 360 day cycle, they plotted time periods. Three hundred and sixty was a sacred number for the ancient people as there are 360 degrees in an astrological natal chart and also the circle. So knowing the number 20 was sacred they figured 18 X 20 would be equal to a year. This year they called a tun, next they multiplied the tun by 20 to make a katun and by 20 again to make a baktun, working their way through time, forwards and backwards. The katun was divided up into a system that had thirteen stages of creation called heavens, and by following these developmental stages they could predict what was going to happen in their society during the 20 years of the Katun. They thought this important enough for their descendants and because they traveled throughout time knew that the modern world would need a system to get the magic back in their lives. So they inscribed the calendar on books, walls and steles. The Mayans estimate that our Universe is 16.4 billion years old and this is recorded on the Coba stele a Mayan site in the Yucatan describes trillions of years in the Universe. By following the katun they were able to follow the cycles to see the start, growth and demise of their cities and ultimately their culture. The synchronicity was amazing and by following the baktun 394 year cycle they could see the longer historical cycle.
According to ancient Mayan beliefs the Cosmos was made up by Nine Underworlds. This fundamental idea was expressed very powerfully through their most important pyramids, the Pyramid of the Plumed Serpent in Chichen-Itza, the Pyramid of the Jaguar in Tikal and the Temple of the Inscriptions in Palenque, which were all built with nine different stories. Nine is a sacred number for many people with nine storied pagodas common in the far East and the Holy month of Ramadan celebrated by the Muslims is the ninth month of the year. Viking mythology described the Cosmos as being composed by nine worlds, and of course there are nine visible planets in our solar system. In numerology nine is the number of completion In Tarot the nine in the major arcane is symbolized by the hermit or philosopher and is a very powerful card for seekers of the truth. As we can see in the diagram the beginning of the creation of the First Underworld coincides well with the current best estimate of the big bang. This is awe inspiring as it means that the Big Bang - is included in the time span of the most basic of the creation cycles. We are in fact a very young Universe! Upon this the most basic of the Nine Underworlds, are then built eight other Underworlds each carrying and developing a special frame of consciousness for the life that it creates. In this way a foundation is created where lower levels of consciousness provide the base for new and higher levels. Each of these nine creation cycles thus gives rise to a specific Underworld, characterized by a certain consciousness that is then created in a series of thirteen steps, or Thirteen Heavens. At the present time we are at the start of the 5th night in the eighth level of consciousness called the Galactic Underworld, which is based on the foundation provided by the seven lower levels, including the Planetary Underworld, which had its beginning in 1755. This eighth level may be referred to as the galactic frame of consciousness as it will step by step lead humanity to identify primarily with the galaxy. The highest level of consciousness, the Universal, will be attained through the workings of the Ninth Underworld in the year 2011 and will result in a timeless cosmic consciousness, and a citizenship in the universe, on the part of humanity. While the evolution of the Four lower levels of consciousness are all expressed as biological evolution the Five highest levels of consciousness carry the evolution of the cultural, technological and spiritual aspects of the human being. At the present time human beings are also beginning to develop a metaphysical -consciousness, an awareness of the evolution of consciousness, that allows them to look upon creation from a higher perspective. The Cosmic Consciousness of Universal Man as prophesized in many spiritual traditions is increasingly becoming a real possibility. In the diagram below I only examine the last four underworlds as they have the most relevance.
The Mayan Calendar and Transformation of Consciousness
As you can see the ruling energy is similar to a plant with the 5th night, our next challenge being a time of destruction of the old plants. I will write more of what I believe will happen in the Mayan Code. For the transformation of consciousness you will notice that each time period becomes smaller with the Regional 5125 years and the Universal 260 days. A lot of people who are seekers in the nineties felt that time was speeding up and as the time periods get shorter the world is speeding up. |
