Brief Intro to the Mayan
Calendar
by Ian Xel Lungold
Here is some Quick Reference
information that
will
help you to utilize your Mayan Calendar and Conversion
Codex.
This tool includes the Instructions and two charts by which Gregorian calendar dates can
be converted to the Mayan Sacred Calendar called the “Tzolkin”. (Tzolkin means,
Count of Days) With this tool you can look up today’s date to find the current
Mayan calendar day as well as look up any date back to Jan/1/1910.
The Maya had quite a different
consideration about “Time” than we currently have in our society.
A big clue to this
is that their calendar system is made up of 2 different calendar rounds of 360
and 260 days. These calendar rounds were the Tun and Tzolkin respectively.
These two cycles run like meshed gears. Of most important NOTE; neither of
these cycles are tied directly to any observable astronomical orbits as our
calendar is. History clearly shows that the Gregorian calendar was forced on
the world by Kings and the Catholic church. It was used by them to destroy
indigenous peoples and their cultures wholesale. This Gregorian calendar is
based on the physical phenomena of our planet going around our star called Sol.
This happens every 365.25 days. It is a physical phenomena and the basis of our
concept of time. Time being seen by us, as the motion of mass and energy
through space.
The Maya were very aware of the
solar cycle and kept careful track of it with their CIVIL calendar called the
Haab. The Haab was a 365.25day calendar used by the Maya for book keeping and
TAX collection in an agrarian society. Makes sense. When could they pay their
taxes? When the crops came in.
Aside from that….
THE MAYA TOTALLY IGNORED THE SOL
AR
CYCLE
AS
THE CENTER OF THEIR CONSCIOUSNESS
All Mayan calendar dates, including personal
birthdays, dedications and most sacred ceremonial events were measured in
360day periods called, Tuns. (pronounced “tunes”) All dates “carved in stone”
throughout the Mayan and Toltec world are Tun dates. The whole of the Mayan and
Toltec civilizations celebrated each day of the Tzolkin and Tun calendars every
day for more than 2000 years. What were these wonderful people who were so
brilliant in math and astronomy timing? That has been the unanswered enigma of
the Maya. That is until Carl J. Calleman
PhD. made his scientific, ground-breaking discoveries concerning the Mayan
calendar system. Dr Calleman and Ian Lungold have discovered and are
disseminating the facts that the Maya were keeping track of the Flow, Rate and
Intent of Creation itself. There is a book “Solving the Greatest Mystery Of Our
Time” by Dr Calleman, available and much more on the way about this subject.

What you pay attention to… You
become conscious of.
Most senior law of the Universe.
Each day in Creation is created
with it’s own energy. This energy permeates all of our reality seen and unseen.
There are 260 different combinations of 20 different Day Lord energies or
"Sacred Sun Signs" (energy sent by the Sun) and 13 different Galactic
Energies or "Tones" sent from the Central Sun of our galaxy. The
Central Sun of our galaxy is called, Hun’ Nab Ku. (The One giver of Movement
and Measure.)
Each of the Day Lords or
"Sacred Sun Signs" has a personality and each of the Galactic
Energies or "Tones" have a purpose or intent. This combination gives
each day a "flavor" and an “intent”.
When you align your own activities and
intentions to the energies of the day, you
will
be
working with the flow and intent of creation and so should have an easier time
accomplishing your own goals.
When you came into a body in this
life, you came with one of these 260 energy combinations.
Think of a board or grid with 260
different sized and shaped holes. Your particular personal energy and intent
for this life time fit through one and only one of these holes. That was the
day on the Mayan calendar that you were born. You resonated with this
Creation’s vibration on that day and look, here you are.
Every 260 days that energy is
re-created and you
will
find as you follow the Mayan calendar that you do indeed
resonate to creation on that day.
Each person who was
born as an "Ancient Maya," knew why they had come here to planet
Earth. They also were taught as children how to best go about accomplishing his
or her personal goals. This information was used to organize and run the entire
culture of the Maya for more than 3000 years. The Maya were so wise that they
actually predicted the downfall of their own civilization. They knew that the
flower of their civilization would fade to later, become SEEDS. The predictions
came from the Mayan calendar. Those predictions came true 500 years later right
on schedule. Imagine our current leaders speaking of any such truths. I think NOT!
Every individual Day has a Day
Lord or Sacred Sun Sign. This
will
be one of 4 colors that correspond to a Cardinal direction
(East, Red) (North, White) (West, Blue or Black) (South, Yellow) Each of these
has a purpose in creation.
1.East, Fire, Beginnings or Birth,
as in the dawn of each day.
2.North, Wisdom as knowledge with
the emotion distilled from it, rather cold, aloof and analytical.
3.West, Transformations or
changes, such as in the changes we see from Day, to Dusk, to Night.
4.South, Fulfillment or coming to
fruit. Open, warm, friendly and full of feeling.
These energies have a relationship
between them much like different notes on the musical scale. Some are
harmonious with another some are discordant, some are directly opposed. Many
couples are opposites, confirming that opposites do attract. All directions work together to produce the
musical score we call life.
By looking at the diagram titled
Oracle of the Directions, you can see the relationship and a brief description
of these energies. This then,
will
show you how your energy is going to work with the energy
of each day or another person’s energy. This is very useful in keeping
relationships balanced and to keep your self from taking daily or personal
interaction difficulties as too personal. There are difficulties, as we all
know, here is a Big, natural reason why. Once again, knowingly working with
these energies and relationships is a lot easier than running afoul of them
unknowingly.
All, of the Mayan calendar runs in
cycles. The most basic of these are the “Run” of 20 Sacred Sun Signs, which is
a Mayan month called a Uinal (pronounced We-in-all). These are the rows running
from top to bottom of the Mayan Tzolkin calendar. Also the “Run”, or cycle of
the 13 Tones (numbers 1-13) called a Trecena or Thirtnight, which would be a
Mayan week.
At the beginning of any Mayan week
(any day with a number one) the Day Lord on which it occurs, gives a
personality foundation or a motivational impulse to the entire 13 Day run.
Born on a number one day? Your Day Lord or
Sacred Sun Sign energy is doubled in strength.
The Trecena, in which you were
born, expresses the base motivation of your lifetime. The higher the number
1-13 that you were born with, the stronger this accumulated motivational effect
has in your life.
LIGHTS & D
AR
KS OF CREATION
There are cycles within cycles of
the Mayan calendar. One of these is the
oscillation from “Light” periods of Creation and “Dark” periods of Creation.
A "Light" period is when
Creation presents some new awareness. As in the "Light" being turned
on.
A "Dark" period is not some evil
period but a time to rest, to reflect on what has been learned or to apply what
is now known. To be sure there are sometimes difficulties in applying new
information but this is not necessarily due to evilness but to some as yet
unknown factor that is only discovered in the application.
Looking at the Mayan calendar
(green Tzolkin chart) we can see the order of the days running top to down.
"Light and Dark" periods alternate
day to day. Crocodile is a "Light" day and following, Wind is a
"Dark" day. Akbal, called,
Night, House or Temple, is actually a "Light" day. Akbal you
will
note; brings new light from the darkness. Seed then, is a "Dark" day,
and so on down to Sun which is a “Dark” day, one for application of all has
been shown during the previous days.
Each Mayan month or “Run” of 20
Sacred Sun Signs (Uinals) also alternates from Light to Dark. The first Uinal
(run of days top to bottom) being all “Light” the next Uinal or row running
from top to bottom of the Tzolkin being all “Dark.”
Each Mayan week as well alternates
from light to dark. The first 13 days being “Light” and the second being
“Dark.”
Yes, the effects are cumulative.
Some days are Very light, with much
to learn, some are very dark used best to rest, ponder or apply. Most are some
combination in between. As you become more familiar with these fluctuations you
will
be able to use this information more and more to your
benefit.
Because all of these energies to
our current culture’s way of perceiving are very subtle, it may take a little
while to get the hang of this.
Do
not be Concerned, Worry, Fret or Effort at or about any of this information.
Any of that,
will
only get in the way of the "Natural" opening of your intuition or
inner knowing that this information, in
it’s and your own time,
will
provide to you.
Just be aware of the energy as described for each day by
the Mayan calendar and live your life. Your consciousness
will
be automatically tuned to the flow of all of creation. You’ll probably find
yourself surrounded by coincidence as one of the first clues of this tuning.
Get used to it. This is the Real Ride.
Remember, "What you put your Attention on… Is
what you become Conscious of".
It has always been so and it
will
always be so, whether you are physically incarnated or not.
In other articles found at mayanmajix.com there is information available, building the case scientifically, that the
Mayan calendar has been measuring the Flow, Rate and Intent of Creation itself
for the last 16.4 Billion years. All that we know scientifically of what has
happened when goes to prove this. This” flow of Creation” is the source
of all knowing including your own inner knowing called intuition or instinct.
By paying attention to this pattern you become increasingly aware of the flow
of Creation.
This then, is the purpose of the
Mayan calendar and why the Maya left it here for us in these times, to Gently
and Naturally, tune your consciousness to the flow of creation. This “tuning”
is the way to open the portal to your own inner knowing, and to strengthen your
Intuition.
Mayan Prophecies
Prophecies from the Mayan calendar
tell that these are the times of a great awakening and the long awaited return
of Quetzalcoatl, the Plumbed Serpent. As all serpents from ancient cultures,
Quetzalcoatl represents, wisdom profound and
the pattern of the movements of creation.
The reverence paid to Quetzalcoatl
was and is not given as to a person or an idol, but in consideration of the
actions and thoughts of every being through-out all of time, who has pursued to
what-ever degree, greater wisdom for themselves and their fellow beings.
Know that your actions and
thoughts are honored as well.
Here/Now “New Seeds” of
consciousness are prepared to be sown and all truths
will
be
shown and known.
You are participating in this glorious return.
Thank You and you are Welcome…
