And, Read the full article…

Back again with the start of a brand new 260-day Maya Calendar cycle, but this time we are getting ready for winter instead of welcoming spring as we did 260 days ago when new beginnings were lining up perfectly. This time, unfortunately, things are definitely darker on many fronts – but not without potential. As always, the first trecena of Read the full article…

As we head towards December, here we are again with the last trecena in the current 260 day cycle. This is the trecena that tends to herald change prior to the beginning of the new cycle, often with an emphasis on “leadership”. And the world is watching, as the negotiations are underway to achieve a temporary ceasefire in order to Read the full article…

What would an eagle be thinking if he soared high above Earth, and spotted thousands and thousands of people fleeing from war ravaged regions that seem to be under continuous fire?

After traversing a 13 day period that pulled a lot of “deep dark” secrets out of the recesses  and into the light, exposing long undisclosed realities and truths (somewhat along the lines of exposing the “wizard of oz”, but much more dire), we now come to a period that tends to place emphasis on the question of “now what . Read the full article…

Early September, and there’s that “something” in the air – a hint of the impending change in seasons, the anticipation of returning to classes or to work, the uncertainties and expectancies associated with the possibility of having to adapt to something new. And, as this is going on, we find the Ok (Dog) trecena in place to carry us through Read the full article…
