Today is the end of another cycle in the Mayan Tzolkin Calendar. Thursday, August 14, 2008 is 13 Oc (Dog). What does this mean for us as an individual, and does that reflect on the world around us? Is there any trace of Oc in the global consciousness? This is the end of a cycle: are you holding your dream?
This morning as I drove to the nearby market an advertisement came on the radio for a political “message”. The energy was intense and demeaning, even if the cause was true and just. Words presented in such a light rarely transition into any worthy action. Yes, today is a good day to focus on the power of Oc, the dog. Today is a good day to focus on loyalty.
Loyalty is holding steadfast to your purpose and direction. Oc reminds us of the need to at times step out of our own needs if that is what is required to remain on course. On this day the power of Oc, our loyal guidance that keeps us focused, is accompanied by 13, the day of completion and transition into the next cycle.
How then can we receive the gift of Oc on this day? Through reflection on your own path. Have you ever had something you have worked on so diligently, only to let it fall apart before its complete? Not all dreams are intended to manifest, but many of our dreams should reach their state of being. Are you holding your dream, maintaining your loyalty with something you know to be worthwhile and true? As we move into the next cycle you may carry into it a long-term dream.
Each day presents you with another energy or support that you can use to feed your fire. The pivotal aspect in manifesting your dream is you – where do you stand? Above your dream, manipulating your world like a puppetmaster? Under your dream, with the weight of it all on your shoulders? Or is your dream within your heart, beating at the same rhythm, like an echo of your very soul?
Today is the end of a thirteen day cycle. How are you holding your dream?
