THE TZOLKIN TRIBES
The Maya chose 20 totems to venerate in their sacred calendar. Our life purpose and persona are indicated by our birth in one of these ancient day signs.
I have written about the Natural Time cycles for 20 years. I save everything I write and sometimes it gets published in printed form. I’m currently writing a book on personal Mayan astrology and revisiting the descriptions of the 20 tribes. I found these earlier versions and decided to post them for public consumption.
I used to be a thickly mystical author. I was tripping out on intuitive insight and let my language be otherworldly because that was where I spent a lot of time. I’m still internally a high-intensity mystic, but I no longer produce anything like the densely lyrical, meandering and mythological reflections I used to unfurl about Natural Time. Yet they are so full of information, you’ll learn everything you need to have a basic understanding of yourself, others, through this lens of the Tzolkin calendar.
