Tzolkin Trecena Notes – 1 Road (Eb)
Day
92 of the 260 Day Tzolkin
August 26, 2010
Year
Bearer: 11 Manik
Trecenas are thirteen-day periods in
the Tzolkin. Each Trecena starts with the Number 1,
but with
a different Day Glyph. As a wave of the Thirteen Heavens, the
underlying energy is governed by the
First Day Glyph of the Trecena and influences all thirteen successive Day
Glyphs. Being aware of the predominant energy of the First Day of the Trecena, we can align our
intentions with that energy
and allow our goals to manifest.
This Trecena starts with 1 Eb (Road/Grass) Abundance, Growth, Harvest, Vital Energy, Conductor
of Destiny, Spiral Ladder of Life.
Road energy symbolizes the
vital dew of heaven –
Blood lightning that
connects our physical being to our spiritual being.
When you are climbing the
pyramid of true destiny,
You’ll feel this energy of
connection in your heart.
To the Ancient Maya, Eb energy symbolized the ladder that God made to
descend from heaven to
earth. The Maya called the energy connecting every
living being to heaven “Itz” or “dew from
heaven.” Climbing
this ladder (symbolized by a pyramid) through the Thirteen Underworlds to
Heaven was the spiritual path that all must travel. Thus Eb energy became known as the “Road
of Life”.

Road Energy also represents the vital spirit of life
known to Ancient cultures by many different names: prana, chi, qi,
life essence, mallinali,
dew of heaven, blood lightning. This energy is present
in all
creation and is
the vital force that drives consciousness. According to Kenneth Johnson in
Jaguar
Wisdom, “…this day-sign is a symbol of
the vital energy and power that propels us along
the Road
of Life, as well as
of the Road itself.”
Another representation of the Trecena is that of a creative wave beginning at 1 and ending at 13, with
the numbers 6,
7 and 8 representing the crest of the wave. The crest could be interpreted as a
strong
influential energy, although the underlying influence on the Trecena would still rest in the beginning.
This Trecena crests on 6 Caban (Earth),
synchronizing our heart with Earth’s natural rhythms;
7 Etznab (
Flint
), the reflection – the
choices we make; 8 Cauac (Storm), activation –
purification –
gathering energies within. As we move through these accelerated times, logic cannot keep up with
the multitude and speed of changes. It is important not only to stay grounded
but also to listen to
your heart and let your intuition guide you on your
journey. Your true destiny is designed to be
revealed when you follow your
heart.
