Red Rhythmic Dragon

Seal 1

Nurturing what wants to be born

Action nurturePower birthEssence being

The Red Dragon is the first of the twenty seals and opens every count of the Tzolkin. It represents what exists before any action: being. Its action is to nurture, its power is birth. Like a source that asks for nothing and nourishes everything, it is a reminder that every beginning must first be received. In the Dreamspell, red is the color that initiates. As a seal of the input time cell, the Dragon receives the new and gives it a first place. It belongs to the Cardinal Earth family and the Fire Clan; in the planet holon it corresponds to Neptune and to the galactic-karmic flow, which runs from the outside in. In Hunab Ku 21, it embodies the Primal Force, the original creative energy from which everything else is born. The Dragon invites you to trust the origin and to give room to a beginning even before it has taken form.

Tone 6

Rhythmic

In your own rhythm, in balance

Action organizePower equalityEssence balancing

Question How can I extend my equality to others?

The Rhythmic tone brings balance to the wavespell. Its action is to organize, its power is equality, its essence is balancing. After the radiant force of the fifth tone, the task now is to order the forces and distribute them fairly. Its question is: How can I extend my equality to others? Equality here means giving each part the place that is right for it, so that the whole keeps the beat. Rhythm arises when tension and relaxation, action and rest alternate. In Maya numerals it appears as a bar and a dot; six is the number that divides into two equal trinities and so forms symmetry. The Rhythmic tone stands just before the center of the wavespell and prepares it. It invites you to organize your day and your relationships so that giving and receiving stay in balance.
