Tzolkin Trecena Notes – 1 Vulture (Cib)
Day 196 of the 260 Day Tzolkin
Gregorian Date: January 26, 2013
Year Bearer: 13 Caban (Earth)
Trecenas are thirteen-day periods in the
Tzolkin. Each Trecena starts with the Number 1, but with a different
Day Glyph. As a wave of the Thirteen Heavens, the underlying energy is
governed by the First Day Glyph of the Trecena and influences all
thirteen successive Day Glyphs. Being aware of the predominant energy of
the First Day of the Trecena, we can align our intentions with that
energy and allow our goals to manifest.
This Trecena starts with 1 Cib –
Vulture/Owl – Ancient Warrior, Keeper of Wisdom, Defender of Universal
Consciousness, Silent Inner Strength of Convictions.
“This glyph signifies the mind in a
state of forgiveness and illumination. It is a brain with rays, lines
of expansion, reaching out in all directions.” Carlos Barrios The Book of Destiny.

In Mayan cosmology,
there were four divine figures called the Bacabs (Bah KAHBS) who
personified the four directions and were responsible for holding up
the sky in each of the four corners. They were depicted as beekeepers
or sometimes even gigantic bees and wore conch shells on their heads.
The Maya associated this day sign with the conch shell as its spiral
shape symbolizes emergence and rebirth. In many ancient cultures, the
spiral represents death and rebirth as an ongoing process taking place
within the human soul. To the Maya, the day sign of the Vulture also
represented departed spirits returning as butterflies or bees.
This day sign is associated with
Vulture because the Vulture not only feeds on the remains of the dead,
but also clears away the past. Vulture symbolically represents the
purging of karmic patterns and the emergence of new thought. Vultures
and Owls were also revered as great teachers and Keepers of Ancient
Wisdom. According to Tony Shearer in Beneath the Moon and Under the Sun,
“In a Mayan translation of this sign we learn that this day was a day
of God, the Creator of All, when just before the end of the long 1144
year epic the Creator would come down and clean up all the filth and
corruption on our Earth Mother, as the Sacred Buzzard cleans the filth
from our highways and fields.” NOW is the time to clear out the past
(forgive and forget) in order to harmonize with the new energies of the
new cycle.
Carlos Barrios in The Book of Destiny
states that Cib “is a favorable day to ask for and receive
forgiveness, to manage harmony and discord, and to focus on the word,
the message, ancestral lines, and the energy that emanates from living
bodies, called an aura.”
Another representation of the
Trecena is that of a creative wave beginning at 1 and ending at 13,
with the numbers 6, 7 and 8 representing the crest of the wave. The
crest could be interpreted as a strong influential energy, although
the underlying influence on the Trecena would still rest in the
beginning. In this Trecena, the crest falls on 6 Imix
(Crocodile/Waterlily), 7 Ik (Wind) and 8 Akbal (Night/Hearth).
Crocodile represents ancient primal forces and new beginnings. Wind is
the spirit or chi energy that gives life to primal energy. Night
represents the temple which houses the soul. The Cib trecena
encourages us to clear out old habits and patterns. The energies
available at the crest (new beginnings flowing in the wind influencing
our spiritual house) will help us to attain a new level of awareness
and new patterns of existence.

Utilize the energy of Cib to release old
patterns which no longer serve in order to make way for new ideas and
opportunities to emerge. Something has to be surrendered NOW in
order for transformation to take place.
