✨ This September, I open The Listening—a silent 21-night walk through all twenty energies of the Sacred Calendar, one each night, in twenty minutes of shared silence together in the dark. These are the energies of a life—breath, beginnings, death, rebirth, the storm, the sun—and over 21 nights we walk the whole span together, until you begin to see everything from your Soul’s perspective. And it’s only $44.
Hello sweet souls,
Today is 13 Tz’ikin—and 13 is the completion tone, the spirit day, the number that lands us squarely in the ancestor world.
Tz’ikin is the bird—vision, higher perspective, the messenger flying between the worlds. On 13 Tz’ikin, the bird flies between worlds, and what it sees is the whole arc.
It is the right day to open August, because this month we turn toward Sacred Business and the Energy of Money—though you will hear me say, more than once, that a truer name is Sacred Offerings. And in this first transmission, I say the truest thing I know about what has to happen before any of it: you have to accept it.
Recognizing your Soul’s calling—which is where July left us—is really different from accepting it. Acceptance is the whole work. It is enough on its own. It obligates you to nothing. And yet, once it lands, something does begin to move.
I tell you my story here. The night the ancestors sent me to my psychic. What she said. The lifetime they showed me where I resisted my gifts. And what it felt like in my body, this year, when the wall I had been smushed up against finally disappeared. I close with a practice you can sit with at your altar this week—a way to give acceptance a body.
Tomorrow, August 6, the Ajmak trecena begins—the thirteen days of acceptance and forgiveness. And this transmission is the doorstep to it.
Members of The Altar will open that trecena together tomorrow at 11am MT with a Cacao Circle: Acceptance with the Ancestors on 1 Ajmak. Then on Wednesday, August 19, we return for the Cacao Ritual + Kundalini Sound Journey on 1 Toj—the sacred fire, offering and reciprocity. For access to the gatherings:
And a whisper toward the end of the month—I open my home in Santa Fe on August 28, 29, and 30 for the Your Soul is the Bridge Retreat. Three days across 10 Tijax, 11 Kawok, and 12 Ajpu—the blade that cuts to truth, the storm that washes clean, and the solar hero who steps into the sun. It is the fullest expression of the arc we are walking this month. If your heart stirs as you read this, that stirring is worth listening to. A few seats remain. Reserve Your Seat
For now, find a quiet place, put in your earphones, and let this first transmission begin its work in you.
With you at the doorstep,
Maggie xx
