(11 K'an (Corn) / 2 Mak - 12.19.8.14.4)

By using this alternate calendar system we are able to become more conscious of the unconscious ways that the Gregorian Calendar keeps us locked into an artificial system of scarcity and limitation.  A cycle that keeps us chasing faster and faster after the ever illusory carrot of personal material wealth and keeps our attention away from the common and planetary good.  By tuning in to the glyphs and their energies, we tune out the paradigm of "time is money" and replace it with the paradigm of "time is art".  This is because, by using a measurement of time that is qualitative (describing a feeling or an energy) rather than just quantative (dividing units of time as if they were units of space) we take a literal quantum leap in our viewpoint on time from observer to participant.  We take back our power from the impersonal agents of mechanistic time like the clock and the watch and return it to ourselves and our kin.

The more we implement the calendar by learning the glyphs and by playing with and exploring their energies, by acting out our galactic signatures and observing what the day glyph and tone is, the more fully we are able to create a harmonious framework for a life lived as art.  Which, in turn, brings us together to form sustainable communities to support us in that purpose.  To that end "Planetary Art Groups" are springing up globally - groups of people who are using the Mayan calendar to facilitate creativity and healing in a way that allows us to experience our greater selves: as autonomous individuals in a networked community.
