The significance of this day
Day Tochtli (Rabbit) is governed by Mayahuel, Goddess of the Maguey and of Fertility, as its provider of tonalli (Shadow Soul) life energy. Tochtli is a day of self-sacrifice and service to something greater than oneself. It signifies the religious attitude which holds everything sacred and results in experiences of self-transcendence. It is a mystical day, associated by the passages of the moon. It is a good day for communing with nature and spirit, a bad day for acting against others.
The thirteen day period (trecena) that starts with day 1-Calli (House) is ruled by Itzpapalotl. The 13 days of this trecena are governed by the conflict between culture and nature: the native desire of human beings to maintain a lineage of customs and beliefs is periodically disrupted by the evolutionary leaps of nature. In this sense, nature is represented as the house into which we are born and culture as the house into which we move. These are 13 days of struggling to decide which house is really home. With every step forward, the warrior still stands at the center of the crossroads: the heart must be trained if it is to be a reliable compass. These are good days to focus on the future; bad days to focus on the past.
Been pondering………….
I am thankful for those whom continue to share support and appreciation for my blog and community efforts.
Grateful to have community neighbours and mentors and learning successes of growing a garden, the systems of nature and production or scaled produce.
Native Renewal and MY Real Oklahoma is a collaborative partnership made up of organizations working together to prevent and end food scarcity and promote ecological development and regenerative initiatives and land stewardship.
What the heck does that mean.. how is that “profitable”….
