Today, 5 Aq’ab’al invites us to put effort into the dawning of new concepts and ideas as day turns to dusk or dusk turns to day, to work hard at honoring the contrast between light and shadow, and to cultivate awareness through dedicated practice.
Guided Meditation for 5 Aq’ab’al
Close your eyes and imagine the sky turning from black to deep blue at the edge of dawn. Behind you, the night is deep and mysterious. Before you, the first pale light touches the horizon. You stand in the in-between, neither fully in darkness nor fully in light. Breathe and inwardly commit to seeing clearly and honoring both your shadow and your light. Feel your feet connecting to the heart of earth and your crown reaching for the heart of the sky. What new concept is emerging from the darkness? What awareness is dawning? Do the work here, in the threshold, where transformation lives.
Moderation
Butterfly in the sky
Bat in the cave
I focus on moving in myriad directions
Upward and downward
Side to side
Diagonally
Both and
Walking the middle path
Not going to painful extremes
Centered in harmony
Rooted in gratitude
Flowing with change
Working in the threshold with discernment
Honoring light and shadow with right effort
