Mayan Day Sign: 6 IK’

This is the sixth day in the trecena that started with 1 Caban (wisdom). The number 6 represents the balance between the unconscious mind: it is time to listen to the wisdom within you and balance your conscious striving with your unconscious desire.

Caban is wind: rational intelligence is associated with air. Today is a day to ask for clarity of thought which can direct action aligned with your true path.

Sabian Symbol: Aquarius 10

Each day, the sun moves one degree forward in the zodiac, aligning with a new sabian symbol associated with that degree. Today, the sun is at 20 degrees of Scorpio, and the image for the day is:

“A MAN WHO HAD FOR A TIME BECOME THE EMBODIMENT OF A POPULAR IDEAL IS MADE TO REALIZE THAT AS A PERSON HE IS NOT THIS IDEAL.”

People are not perfect. Ideals may be perfect: they are static, unmoving approximations of an apex of thought.

But people can never be this. We are moving, changeable, dynamic, alive. We may embody an ideal for a moment, only to lose it in the next breath. You may not always embody your ideal, but this does not make the effort any less worthwhile. You are worthy of bringing to fruition that which you are here to offer.

Astrology Transit: New Moon in Aquarius

The New Moon in Aquarius is trine Jupiter: an auspicious and luck planet. Jupiter represents the opening in our solar system to expansive universal energy.

The New Moon is in Aquarius, the sign of revolutionary thought and ideas. This is a new moon that can bring about a change in direction, or perhaps a redirection, towards alignment with your path. If you have been struggling to identify what you want to dedicate your energy to during this time, this is a good day to separate yourself from the constant drone of capitalist and imperial systems in their fall and listen to the wisdom that arises from within.

Jupiter in Gemini is the herald of the information you need in order to break free of patterns that are inhibiting your free thought and movement. Are you feeling stuck? Boxed in by decisions that have afforded stability at too high a cost? Jupiter in Gemini can help remind you of your true self and true expression; the part of you that yearns to break free from the monotony of life within a system in decline.
