Mayan cosmology gives humanity a place in the circle of life, but does not put it at the center of all creation. Here we are equal to the sun and the snake; there is no food chain hierarchy, because each has its vital role. We come to Yellow Human with that inquiry: what is our gift, our legacy, our purpose in this larger existence? At base we are receptive, willing to be instructed and of service. To be human is to enact kindness and care, not cruelty and coercion. We use our wisdom, influence and free will to create harmony and healing as emissaries of god’s will, made in god’s own image.
