9.2.25 – Day 6/13 of the Red Earth Wavespell – Lunar Moon 11

Red Earth can make us want to travel, to get on the open road and be unencumbered by immovable objects. It can also incline us toward time in nature, on the earth, particularly hiking our way over its geology, the layered terraces and locked lava flow. So if you vacation time is over with the start of a school year or inclinations toward fall’s seasonal change, then you can just commit to walking the land around you, into the awe of canyons and mountain sides that remind you how much larger the eons of time are for the rock world than our human one.

8.31.25 – Day 4/13 of the Red Earth Wavespell – Lunar Moon 8

The Red Earth wavespell has its various levels. It lets the planet itself show off its supremacy over the human population scavenging off it – so a late summer heat wave or vacation into nature where one is astonished by the OG terrain and prehistoric geology might be a teaching that the earth is eternal by comparison to anything our species endeavors. It also lets you feel like the planet, and the yen to move through space, on the road or in flight, is strong: to cruise, to go the distance, to dislodge stasis and be in motion. Then it also imitates the planet’s volatility – the heiroglyph is of an earthquake’s tremor – and you might want to dance or ceremonialize in ‘ancient’ ways that condition your body to act seismic and tectonically shift.

8.26.25 – Day 12/13 of the Yellow Seed Wavespell – Lunar Moon 4

Thus ends the Yellow Seed portal days. I am not sure if they especially registered. It’s as if we are so far into the vortex of high speed chaos, how can we know what is a wall, and what is a door opening through it? The house is swirling tornadoesque anyway. I think a lot about Yellow Seed representing a dumbing down or simplifying of brain activity and an expansion of other, visceral sensitivity. To light, to dark, to cold and heat. A time for finding a safe place to grow. Pulling back from industry and artificiality. The world is opposite that, mostly, these days, at a fever pitch of productivity and fakery. So we have an opportunity this wavespell, and this long year, to get closer to the experience of plant life, to cry out for simplicity and safe harbor.

8.24.25 – Day 10/13 of the Yellow Seed Wavespell – Lunar Moon 2

The Lunar Moon instantly sets us up to feel that there are problems in our lives that did not have the same intensity or focus in the Magnetic Moon. In the earliest part of the Lunar Moon, it’s like an assault on our senses to go from complacency or curiosity to wanting to register complaints. Something new that formed in our lives this Mayan year suddenly has a downside. The hints at complication or discomfort pulsing through the Magnetic Moon are now here in bold, underscored. And my advice is to lay low, breathe, weigh what you don’t like – and recognize that you can’t eliminate it. It’s a part of your yearlong karma. It’s a challenge, yes, but one you’re going to have deal with and grow through, rather than try to dodge or diminish. We can also expect that others who do not follow Mayan spirituality are still going to have this edge. And I do recommend slowing down, stepping back, calming your own central nerve system as you adjust to your own challenges, rather than being immersed in others’ as well.

8.20.25 – Day 6/13 of the Yellow Seed Wavespell – Magnetic Moon 26

Pretty much come to the end of the Magnetic Moon, so please pay attention to what you can deduce your purpose is for this year. It’s what came your way the last few weeks. It’s perhaps the release of some element of your life that formerly consumed it, or it’s a continuation of what you have been cultivating for a handful of years. Your purpose can be something active, or it can be the deactivation of what was occupying your mind and heart. It’s obviously likely to be the fluctuation between these extremes. Some endings, some brand new beginnings. We shift to the Lunar Moon imminently, and it has a way of being challenging while identifying challenge. Take a note before we encounter that kind of intensity. Right now the question is What is my purpose? Consider writing it down.

8.18.25 – Day 4/13 of the Yellow Seed Wavespell – Magnetic Moon 24

The Yellow Seed portals are here. They feel like fresh new growth and wide openings, but take note – they are usually indicators of what is to come, but not necessarily what is going to happen immediately. The seeds give you indicators of what you might grow in your garden, but it takes a minute for them to come into bloom and fruition. We are also in the beginning of the Natural Time year, so it feels new and promising, and not at all close to full manifestation, so the tribe and tone of the moment is in synch. Remember that the Yellow Seed wavespell is also a microcosm of the Yellow Seed year, and see what arises as a prophecy for you in this time.

8.15.25 – Day 1/13 of the Yellow Seed Wavespell – Magnetic Moon 21

The Yellow Seed wavespell arrives so soon after the beginning of the Yellow Resonant Seed year. It’s going to be helpful for us to be steeped in Yellow Seed so directly, so early on, to better understand what this year represents and beholds. Yellow Seed is the tribe that celebrates plant life, plant cycles, from seed to bloom and beyond. We are less cerebral, less carnal, and in some ways less complex. But we are hypersensitive to our environment, what helps us grow and what impedes us. We are drawn to light and sated by waterfall, and we suffer and draw inward away from extremes. Let this next 13 days be your augury for the year. What happens within it may be the microcosmic view of the whole, which is just at its inception with so much yet to discover and karmically play out.

8.12.25 – Day 11/13 of the Blue Monkey Wavespell – Magnetic Moon 18

Blue Monkey, the wavespell, is a slog through child-centric behavior, and sometimes trauma. We have had a stretch of impulsivity, playfulness and magical thinking, and now it’s time to get serious. It’s familiar that this point in the summer is when we start to think of fall, and the return to school or work and the demands of a descending darker season. It’s always around now that we click into gear for our Magnetic Moon of the Mayan year, and can’t avoid or let go unnoticed what is our emerging purpose for the whole 13 moons. This, also, makes us more sedate than the Blue Monkey tribe is capable of. Hopefully you had fun, and lightness of spirit, or were just oblivious to the ‘adult’ demands of our culture, and can return to it refreshed, relaxed and open.

8.8.25 – Day 7/13 of the Blue Monkey Wavespell – Magnetic Moon 14

Somehow, sneaky and quick, we are already at the threshold of the third week in the West of the Magnetic Moon. Things will intensify! We have the full moon peak, Mercury slipping out retrograde into its direct station, and the heightened, accelerated emotionality of the week in the West, the place, too, of transformation. Your mission is to keep calm and carry on, but I advise withdrawal from the fray, especially if you’re taxed and tired by life at the edge of the apocalypse. I don’t know how good humanity is at centering and breathing, so if you enter its crowds, you might add to the overwhelm this astrological moment is delivering. You can be overwhelmed and tidal and emotional and in the heart of transformation while also at the edge of the throng.

8.4.25 – Day 3/13 of the Blue Monkey Wavespell – Magnetic Moon 10

We’re hitting the part of the Blue Monkey wavespell that feels childlike, a set of days that disengage us from earthen reality and let our imaginations soar: Red Skywalker, White Wizard, Blue Eagle. If you are getting dizzy and disoriented, lost from logic and serious demands, that’s exactly what this wavespell asks for. We’re rewound back to our OG child selves, and also seeing this very current world through a child’s gaze. If you want to just think about monkeys, then notice primate is the same as being primitive. Right now we are less complex and closer to the simplicity of being here now, but with all these fireworks of our active, explorative imagination.
