Tzolk'in

The Tzolk'in is the Sacred calendar of the Maya and is based on the cycles of the Pleiades. The cycle of the Pleiadies uses 26,000 years, but is reflected in the calendar we are using by encompassing 260 days.  It uses the sacred numbers 13 and 20. The 13 represents the numbers and 20 represents the sun/glyphs. The Tzolk'in has four smaller cycles called seasons of 65 days each guarded by the four suns of Chicchan, Oc, Men and Ahau. There are also Portal days within the Tzolk'in that create a double helix pattern using 52 days and the mathematics of 28. This sacred calendar is still being used for divination by the traditional Maya all over the Yucatan, Guatemala, and Belize, and Honduras.
 
 

The Tzolkin is a 260-day calendar based around the period of human gestation. It is composed of 20 day-signs, each of which has 13 variations, and was (and still is) used to determine character traits and time   harmonics, in a similar way to Western astrology. The Maya also used a 365-day calendar called the Haab, and a Venus calendar, plus others. They measured long time periods by means of a Long Count, in which one 360-day year  (a "Tun"), consists of 18 x 20-day "months" ("Uinals"). Twenty of these Tuns is a Katun; 20 Katuns is a Baktun (nearly 400 years); and 13 Baktuns adds up to a "Great Cycle" of 1,872,000 days, ( 5200 Tuns, or about 5125 years).

Mayan scholars have been attempting to correlate the Long Count with our Western Gregorian calendar, since the beginning of this century. There has been massive variation in the suggested correlations, but as early as 1905, Goodman suggested a correlation only 3 days from the most popular one today. Known as the GMT correlation, or "correlation # 584283", this was finalized in 1950, and puts the start of the Great Cycle    ( day 0.0.0.0.0)  on 11th August 3114 BC, and the end-date (known as 13.0.0.0.0.) as 21st December 2012.

The fact is, way deep down, everybody knows their own vibrations, and they know what they vibrate to. And as everybody also knows, they have got to keep feeling those good vibrations.  By it's nature, a vibration is a frequency wave. Your frequency wave is a form, because any frequency that vibrates for any amount of time can be mapped. It can be drawn on a graph. The mapping of any frequency is its form. In fact, all geometrical forms are mappings of different frequencies.

A circle is one frequency pattern, a square is another, and a hexagon still another.  When you get together with someone, either your wave-forms mesh or they don't. Or maybe they just neutralize each other.  So it's not just chemistry. The chemistry is just the juicy stuff that happens once the wave-forms have registered each other.  What all this means is that even though each individual wave-form is slightly different from every other wave-form, there is a common denominator, a wave-form model that is encoded in the Tzolkin, the galactic constant.  As the galactic constant, the Tzolkin encodes light  frequencies, crystalline frequencies and genetic frequencies.  Light frequencies are electromagnetic energy patterns.  Crystalline frequencies describe the elements and forms of matter.

Genetic frequencies refer to organic life patterns. Of course they are all intermixed. Take humans for example. As beautiful as they think they are, their beauty is really the result of a particular combination of 64 DNA codons. These codons are the amino acid "code words" of the genetic code. These little six-part structures come together to create the twisting double-helix patterns that we associate with DNA. These patterns, in their particular combinations, contain the information that translates into what we think is our physical beauty. "If your humans would stop taking credit for your beauty," Uncle Joe told me once, "then your beauty would really shine!"  Naturally the DNA code is described as having its own vibratory structure. Our genes vibrate. So whatever our particular genetic combinations may be, they determine our particular wave-forms. Yet, despite apparent differences, and our imperfections, everyone is made up of the same stuff. Each one of us contains the very same code that describes the pattern of all the other wave-forms.

The Mayans say, "In Lake'ch," "I am another yourself."  We are all the same human. In and through myself I know you and you know me. Sounds like a good reason to be tolerant and compassionate, doesn't it?  Not only is each human its own unique wave-from but all of humanity is a single wave-from. We could think of humanity as a wave that is moving and growing in time.  And of course the Earth is its own wave-form, as the Sun and solar system are their own wave-forms, and the galaxy itself is one big crystal wave-form that encompasses and recapitulates all the lesser wave-froms. Waves within waves.  Waves giving rise to waves. Everything in motion within the galactic ocean. Yes the galactic ocean! Did you ever stop to think about it? Beams and rays emitting sparkling prismatic drops of electromagnetic spray, star systems, planets, mineral formations dazzling in color and shape, and the life forms -- innumerable waves, writhing and twisting their way through geometries of time, filing every possible space with ingenious constructs, thought forms, wavelengths -- seeking and surfing their way back along the Zuvuya to the source...

Now, if all of these wave-froms are regulated by the interdimensional galactic constant, the Tzolkin, it means that your own wave-form is ultimately the echo of the galactic wave-from. But an echo -- isn't' that the same as a memory?

The acceleration-synchronization beam which the Maya came here to measure is regulated by the galactic constant, the Tzolkin. That means that the beam's different frequency ratios of the interdimensional 260-unit Tzolkin. That also means that all the wave-forms affected by the beam, including those of your dog and your cat, are also regulated by the Tzolkin. Like a cosmic tapestry weaving itself through your sense experiences, the beam textures your wave-forms with patterns from the Tzolkin!

The I Ching is based on a set of binary mathematical permutations, which also underlie what I call the "pure" progression of the Mayan number harmonics - 2, 4, 8, 16, 32, 64.  As it is presented to us, however, the I Ching is actually comprised of the combination of eight symbols (trigrams) of three lines, either broken or unbroken, in all possible combinations with each other.  By doubling the trigrams, the permutations yield 64 more complex symbolic possibilities of six lines each (hexagrams).  By comparison, the Tzolkin is based on permutations of thirteen numbers and twenty symbols or Sacred Signs which yield a possibility of 260 permutations.  At minimum, each one of the 260 permutations is a combination of one of thirteen numbers, one of twenty signs, and one of four directional positions.

Finally, like the I Ching, the Tzolkin is a system for revealing information relating to a deeper or larger purpose.  While the I Ching is precisely synchronized with the genetic code, the Tzolkin is synchronized with the galactic code.  As the genetic code governs information concerning the operation of all levels of the life cycle, inclusive of all plant and animal forms, the galactic code governs information affecting the operations of the light cycle.  The light cycle defines resonant frequency ranges of radiant energy, inclusive of electricity, heat, light and radio waves that inform the self-generative functions of all phenomena, organic or inorganic.  The two codes are obviously interpenetrating and complementary.
