Day Keeping particulars and translation for December 2012 – The Mayan calendar has many layers of understanding that can be seen in the different cycles and combinations within the 260 and 360 Day calendars.

Chinese Year of the Water Dragon and The Mayan calendar – December 2012
By Sean Caulfield – www.seancaulfield.com

On 6th December we go through the midpoint of 18 days of Akbal/Night – recreation of unity and dampened worldly ambition, the intention is seen in the number 10, which is “challenge” that brings manifestation. Akbal is Darkness before Light, the obsidian mirror of Prophecy. The end of old and beginning of new. A good day to make a fire as the Sun rises and ask for renewal and resurrection here on the face of the Earth. On 15th Dec Akbal fully comes through and what may have been held back until now will manifest.

2012 is the Chinese Year Of The Water Dragon. According to the Chinese Zodiac calendar on 22nd January 2012 the Year of the Rabbit ended, giving way for the Year of the Water Dragon which runs from 23rd January 2012 to 9th February 2013.

The underlying bigger cycles of the Mayan calendar are at the effect of Alligator, Jaguar and Wind. My reference for this comes from a continuation and the new beginning of all the cycles of the 9 levels of the Mayan calendar. Life continues to manifest by an ever evolving purpose seen in evolutions growth and maturity of life through Creations Sacred 13 intention and 20 aspects that weave to form the sacred 260 day Tzolkin of the Maya peoples. Within this 260 day count, on the 5th of December 2012 we start a new 13 day Trecena of Kan/Lizard. You can go to the latest at Mayan Majix for more insight. http://www.mayanmajix.com/1mma_12_5_12.html. Kan/Lizard is a “day to ask for abundance… to unravel problems, to eliminate bad energy and influences, to loosen the ties that bind us to vices, and to fix emotional or romantic problems.” Carlos Barrios.

The 9 levels of the Mayan calendar started 16.4 Billion years ago. Link to the structure.

The completion and build up to the top of the 9 levels has seen radical changes to the world. Our human consciousness is now able to fully see itself for what it is, without the filters that where in place before we reached the top of the Mayan calendar. We have potentially arrived at a connection with our zero point and new beginnings. Hence, all the cycles continue with a new understanding of purpose from the 29th October 2011. This new beginning reconnect us with the original dream of unity and the fact that we are one with the Divine Infinite Source of all the Universe. The original dream of unity could never fully manifest before the completion of the Mayan calendar. The reason for this is because the Mayan calendar’s 9 levels had not fully evolved through to the sacred completion number of 13. We have now been given the tools to fully manifest unity consciousness through 13. However because of the evident chaos in the collective unconscious and our heavily weighing unresolved “stuff”, it is going to take time for things to fully shift to a balanced equality. There is no quick fix solution, yet through patience and endurance we will prosper, through truth of heart we will attract long lasting peace and happiness.

The continuing underlying bigger cycles that start again are all about new beginnings holding the primordial energies of Imix which is known as the Alligator/Dragon.

Imix is Wetness, Earth Monster, Water Lily, Crocodile. Spiny One or Caiman. She is the First Mother, her place is where Sky and Earth meet the Ocean in the salty waters of the mangrove and water lily covered estuaries. Imix is a day so ancient it precedes the cultivation of maize, a world in which humans lived off the abundance of the Earth Mother through hunting and gathering all they needed for sustenance, shelter and sacrifice. A day of the Source of life, Mother Energy, Primal Waters, Blood, Nurture and sustenance. A time to clean oneself of negative chargers that have built up within us.

On the 22nd October 2012 we completed a 360 day Tun cycle of 1- Imix/Alligator/Dragon, the initiating of the new phenomena comes to the surface. We entered the new 360 day cycle of 2-Ik/Wind on the 23rd of October, a reaction that will allow for the new phenomena to be disseminated and communicated. This cycle will take us through to October 2013. Ik/Wind is the breath of life, the North Wind, the ripening and harvesting wind of the maize fields as well as the “Lords of Dust”. The spirit or vital energy that moves this world towards change. A good time to ask for our negativity, suffering and sorrows to be taken away and a day to ask that we may grow spiritually and that our path be cleared before us.

The 234 day cycles of 13×18 days is a large Trecena cycle on the Galactic plane that aligns to the 8th level of the Mayan calendar. On 19th June 2012 we started a large 234 day cycle of 1-Jaguar, a connection to the deep subconscious. This cycle completes on 6th February 2013 and the following 234 day cycle starts with 1-Deer which will initiate a time of bringing spiritual strength in nature. The Jaguar cycle that we are riding now brings a connection to the core of the Earth. Jaguar is the Lord of the night and Underworld. Jaguar is the warring sorcerer in the shaman’s field of battle for human hearts and souls. The Jaguar’s mirror-like golden eyes reflect the power of the sun who lets loose its “Nawales” across the Mountain-Plain as night falls on the face of the Earth. Within this Jaguar cycle, we are in the tenth 18 day cycle of 10-Akbal/Night. So on 6 December 2012 we reach the midpoint of 18 days of 10-Akbal/Night, the number 10 is all about the challenges that manifest and Akbal/Night is the recreation of unity and dampened worldly ambition.

On 16 December we start a new 18 days cycle of 11-Kan/Lizard/Seed, brings clarity and resolve for a time when sustenance naturally manifest and patience is rewarded. Kan/Lizard/Seed is the day of the “carrying net” into which the maize is harvested and brought down off the mountain. This is a day to give back with thanks. South is her direction and abundance is her destiny…….

On the 21st Dec 2012 it is 4-Ahau and we arrive at the summer/winter solstice and the Galactic astrological alignment of the 26000 years processional cycle. 4-Ahau is the 160th day of the 260 day Tzolkin and this day brings consciousness closest to the ration of the golden mean of 1.618 on the Tzolkin. The following day is 5-Imix and the start of the 9th Uinal of 20 days which “creates forward movement” in the process of the growth from seed to mature fruit. This sacred forward movement of Creation’s Divine Will is Quetzalcoatl or Christ consciousness energy. The message is that we are all Divine Universal Beings of Creation and nobody can take away our individuality.

We are one in Diversity. Everything is sacred because it is not separate. You are everything you see. What you do to life you are doing to yourself, so treat life how you want to be treated. Now is the time to become conscious and live with feeling. Your feelings come from the blood that circulates through your ancient heart and this connects you to all life, because the ancient heart is where all life has evolved from.

In my understanding nothing could fully mature to its truth of 13 intentions until the completion of the 9 levels of the Mayan calendar on 28th October 2011. Before this date there were big manipulations. It is now the time of the Great Revealing.

On the Mayan calendar the numbers 1 to 13 are sacred universal waves that emanate as Divine intentions aligned to the evolution and growth of life from seed to mature fruit. Starting with 1 = initiate, 2 = reaction, 3 = activate, 4 = stability, 5 = empower, 6 = flow, 7 = reveal, 8 harmonize, 9 = forward movement, 10 = challenge, 11 = clarity, 12 = understanding, 13 = complete. Humans complete there cycle to becoming and elder after roughly 52 years, this equates to 4 cycles of 1 to 13, 360 day cycles. Thus we become a teenager at roughly 13 years of age.
