~ A COLLECTIVE REBIRTH ~
Today, March 30 2020, we are starting a new cycle of the sacred Mayan calendar (Tzolk’in) of 260 days, kicking off with the energy of the Red Magnetic Dragon. This cycle will end on the 14th of December, the day of a total eclipse. For the Mayans - and also in many other ancient civilisations - the Dragon (or Snake) represents the energy of the primordial Mother and the miracle of (giving) Birth or being (re)born, nourishment in the broadest sense of the the word (also from nature and source) and our instinctive being. All of these events lined up together with the current state of the world seem significant. Sounds like we're in for a collective rebirth of our world.
And quite likely, we'll burn before we'll be reborn
Burn away all our fears and false beliefs, so we can thrive as the original abundant, infinite Being and World that we naturally are at Heart. This piece will touch on some physical, metaphysical and emotional perspectives related to that. It is a writing in progress that will be further elaborated on and edited over time.

~ NATURAL TIME ~
I’d like to honor this sacred Tzolkin calendar as a system of time that still honors - and is based on - time cycles in alignment with nature.
For long I have been a supporter of living in alignment with nature and it’s natural cycles.
How did humanity ever create a calendar that has 12 months with illogical, irregular durations ranging from 29 to 31 days, while the word ‘month’ is derived from a period in-between two new moons and we have 13 moon cycles in a year with a duration of about 28 days? (Read more on this and the Power of the number 13 in my article)
As I already mentioned in this article, it is because of this, that the number 13 was considered a sacred number in the ancient civilisation of the Maya people. In their calendar they use three cyclical calculations which operate in perfect synchronicity: the lunar, solar and galactic count, with one additional 'Day out of Time' at the end of each solar year, which starts with the alignment of the Sun, Earth and the star Sirius on July 25th. Also other ancient civilisations like the ancient Egyptians were aware of this in their application of their sothic time cycle, which conincides with the heliacal rising of the star Sirius (also speculated to be our Sun's binary star).
These natural cycles are like the collective breath of the Earth and the Universe. A constant Coherent connection and flow ~ a current ~ between our body, our Earth body and the celestial bodies. To be in alignment with this breath is to be in alignment with Life and Creation.
Following these cycles and insights, there is no logic to our current time and calendar, although for long it has forced many of us to move out of alignment with natural time, disconnecting our thinking and our actions from nature.
And logic in this sense does not refer to ratio (ratio means ‘within a certain scope/ratio’, hence it’s implied limitations), but is derived from the Greek word ‘logos’, which means divine plan or reason.
Yes, there is a Divine plan and you're going to like it.
~ THE GOLDEN TIME ~
The Golden Time, or Golden Age, is a time which has been referred to by various ancient civilisations and described in ancient Egyptian, Greek and Vedic scriptures among others. The cold Gold represents divinity and Divine Wisdom and Consciousness. It is associated with the light of our Great Central Sun, our spiritual energetic light body and the heart of the Earth. And ultimately, it is to be found within ourselves, as the nectar and Water of Life ~ our essence and Soul ~ as often referred to by Yogic and Sufi masters. In his book Naam or Word, Yogic Master Kirpal Singh writes: "From a careful study of the {ancient} scriptures, we learn that the Water of Life or the Nectar is nothing but the Word or Logos of Christ; Naam or Shabd of the saints; Kalma of the Muslims; and Nad of the Vedic Rishis." Clearly, it seems to refer to a Divine plan and Sacred Template of Creation. Something that has been spoken of in many spiritual movements, encoded in nature and within our own body and spirit.
So what would this Divine Plan look like according to history? According to Professor William Robertson Smith in his Lectures on the Religion of The Semites (1889, London, A & C. Black) the Greeks and Egyptians described this Golden Time as follows: "..in their legends of the Golden Age it was told how in the earliest and happiest days of the race, when man was at peace with the gods and with nature, and the hard struggle of daily toil had not begun, animal food was unknown, and all man's wants were supplied by the spontaneous produce of the bounteous earth."
Also Greek philosopher Plato refers to a golden race of humans who where the first humans, in his dialogue Cratylus. He also clarifies that the ancient Greek poet and author Hesiod (who lived approximately in the time of Homer), did not refer to the qualities of gold as a metal, but divine qualities when he spoke of the Golden Age. Hesiod wrote about Five Ages of Humanity and described this age as a time where peace and harmony prevailed. A time where people did not have to work to feed themselves for the earth provided food in abundance. They lived to a very old age with a youthful appearance, eventually dying peacefully, with spirits living on as "guardians" of the earth.
These are some depictions of the Golden Time that we can retrace from history.
On a personal note I have also been receiving dreams and visions over the years that announced a special time was coming. A time of Love, Truth, Peace and Union, also between the Masculine and Feminine in our World. For example this vision I received in a dream on Christmas Eve 2016.
Sounds all pretty epic. But how do we realise that?
~ HEART COHERENCE AND HARMONIOUS TIME ~
..By realising that finally the Golden Time is about Coherent Time: a time in which our heartbeat synchronises with the pulse of Nature and the Heart of Creation. Re-attuning the rhythm of our breath, body and mind to her frequency, rhythm and natural time cycles and letting her energy and those of the celestial bodies pulsate through our whole being.
Vibrating as One, one Beat, one Primordial Sound. The fundamental Bassline to the Symphony of Life.
And if this still sounds a little too cosmic, then simply begin with becoming more aware of your own Heart - Breath - Brain coherence. Heart coherence is when we allow our heart to guide our body, mind and flow of emotions. It activates a deep meditative state of being. Our heart then communicates harmonious pulses to our brain and central nervous system, resulting in a peaceful state of mind, deep, rhythmic breath and open, unobstructed flow of emotions. In the Yogic traditions the Heart centre is referred to as the Anahatha chakra, which literally means "unstuck note" in Sanskrit. It brings us back to our natural and original, infinite state of being that enables us to experience peace and harmony within ourselves and our environment. It allows our life and creations to unfold with ease, flow and magic synchronicity, which supports us to achieve amazing things and make dreams come true.
Our Heart is an intelligent dreamer
The HeartMath Institute, a pioneer research institute in the field of Heart Intelligence, describes this intelligence as a “flow of intuitive awareness”. Our Heart literally enables us to tune into - and co-create with - the Universal Intelligence through it's ability to sync all of the systems of our body into a coherent pulse in harmony with nature.
It enables us to to bring a higher state of presence and awareness to all that we do and to all whom we relate with. Just think of how present and tuned in we are, when we experience flow in lovemaking with our beloved. It almost feels like we're dreaming, and in fact, this is the state of awakened dreaming that is called Lucid or Flow state. Our Heart is an intelligent dream creating machine! On top of that, the state of heart coherence gives you access to better overall physical and mental health and will literally help you see the world in a more positive way. Enabling you to transmute and positively flow with challenging emotions and live a happier and more fulfilling and fun-filling life.
