The Imox Trecena is a time to begin a new dream. It is far from something which can be brought in to place right now, but it gives the opportunity to plant the seeds for the dreams you wish to bring to fruition over the next 260 days.
If you would like to dive deeper into the sacred calendar, I will be running a workshop via Zoom from 10 am to 2 pm (Guatemala time, UTC -6) from Monday 12th - Friday 16th October 2026. For more information, please go to https://thefourpillars.net/maya-calendar-workshop/
Zoom Presentation - Venus and the Dresden CodexI have a deep interest in the astronomy of the ancients, especially the ancient Maya. I have been studying the Venus table of the Dresden Codex for many years have often been asked "when are you going to share what you know?" Finally, I decided to make that presentation! As Venus will go into its inferior conjunction phase on 21st with its heliacal rise on the 29th October, I have chosen 19th October to make the presentation. I'll cover how the mathematics of the Venus table works and how we can align the table with Venus in our modern era. I will also talk about some of the auguries associated with the heliacal rise of Venus. Here's a link to the event to book your place in the zoom presentation https://thefourpillars.net/the-venus-table/As many of you know, I have made the El Mirador trek 8 times now, taking a small group with me each time. In 2026 I made two journeys which were very much retreat type journeys. In 2027 my focus will be more on exploration and adventure as I extend the time trekking in the jungle from 6 days to 10 days, and the distance to 150km. Of course, there will always be ceremony involved, but next year's trek will take us deeper into the jungle to the remote sites of La Muralla and Naachtun.

The Q'anil trecena can be seen as the ripening trecena of our current evolutionary cycle. It provides the opportunity to plant the seeds we wish to mature as we move into the new dream of the coming cycle and begin the final ripening taking us up to the next level.

The Iq' trecena is a time to breathe life into something new. It may be a time of turbulence as the old pattern or path makes way for the new arrival. Hold on to your hats, this could be a bit of a wild ride!

Many of you may know Nana Maria Feliciana Ujpan, an Aj Q'ij from San Juan La Laguna. Nana Fely has been a friend of mine for many years. She has a huge, loving heart, and a fierce spirit! Since I have known her she has always had arthritis, but lately it has become a lot worse. She has been admitted to hospital and received the first of two hip replacements. I am sharing this Go Fund Me, which was instigated by Doris Kizinna, together with Blake Sherlock, to help with her medical expenses. Please consider showing your unconditional love and helping in whatever way you can.

Somewhere in the darkness, light begins to make its presence known. This is the beginning of beginnings, it is the first spark of the fire. The first spark needs tending, and gentle use of breath and material to grow it into the fire it will become. The spark may represent a new idea that you have, but this is the first thought of this idea. It is something that comes in the waking moment, fresh from the dream world. It has started to emerge into this world but is still uncertain, hidden and yet to take form. This is the moment where it needs support and tending, just as the spark or the newborn needs care and attention. This is where the input and encouragement of family, friends and community can help that spark to become the fire, or that newborn to grow.

If you would like to dive deeper into the sacred calendar, I will be running a workshop via Zoom from 11 am to 3 pm (Guatemala time, UTC -6) from Monday 20th - Friday 24th July 2026. There are currently three spaces available. For more information, please go to https://thefourpillars.net/?page_id=1120
My 2026 calendar is now available. The calendar shows the days of the Chol Q'ij, formatted onto the Gregorian calendar. Currently it is available electronically as a PDF in both English and Spanish. See this link for details on how to get your pdf https://thefourpillars.net/2026-calendar/
For the more technically minded I have also created a plugin for Google Calendar. This enables you to track the days of the sacred calendar on your smartphone. In this way you can ensure that your activities are aligned to the most conducive energies! I have also added a description to every day, just click on the day name. It is available for purchase https://thefourpillars.net/google-calendar-plugin/
When I mention programs within my videos, it is because I know the people involved and can vouch that your donations will go towards helping the people for which they are intended.
A wonderful, highly active project to bring water stability to families is Water4Life Global. Jenna MacEwan and her team have been making a difference to peoples' lives since 2018. They provide water filters to local families throughout Guatemala, thereby giving direct access to clean drinking water. Additionally, they are directly involved in action which helps to clean up the local sources of water. This is achieved through greywater treatment projects, reforestation and education.

In their words: "Our Mission is to offer safe, dignified and culturally appropriate health care to women in Guatemala by empowering indigenous midwives through education. We focus on revaluing the Mayan ancestral knowledge while integrating modern medical practices. With the creation of Holistic Clinic(s) & Birthing Center(s) as a meeting ground and model project. Our Vision is that every woman has access to humane, respected and safe birth care. The midwives and women are empowered to lead the creation of a thriving community where those who are most vulnerable have their needs met, and men support the women in creating this healthy and vibrant family and community structure."

I mention the Konojel program and their work in San Marcos la Laguna. They have turned from a basic, "let's make sure bellies are full" program to one of much more social development. You can check out their programs and donate here https://konojel.org/donate
Within the village of San Pablo la Laguna, there is an organisation doing great work. They are called ODIM and specialise in medical and educational services. However, during the pandemic restrictions, they helped feed many people, but this is in addition to their regular, long-term work there.
