Whoever plays sees through appearances

Action playPower magicEssence illusion

The Blue Monkey is the seal of play. Its action is to play, its essence is illusion, its power is magic. In play, we take forms seriously and at the same time keep them light. The Monkey perceives that much of what seems rigid is only an agreement, and precisely there lies its freedom: whoever recognizes illusion can play with it instead of being led by it. Magic here means the wonder when something falls into place in a surprising way. Blue is the color of transformation, and humor is one of its lightest forms. The Monkey belongs to the process time cell, the Cardinal Earth family, and the Truth Clan. In the planet holon it corresponds to Venus, in the solar-prophetic flow. In Hunab Ku 21, it carries the archetype of the Magician, who knows how to tell appearance from essence. The Monkey invites you to take your inner child seriously and to open the day playfully.

Perfecting until it becomes tangible

Action perfectPower manifestationEssence producing

Question How do I perfect what I do?

The Planetary tone brings the project down to Earth. Its action is to perfect, its power is manifestation, its essence is producing. What until now was intention and movement becomes tangible: a result that can be seen, used, and shared. Its question is: How do I perfect what I do? To perfect here does not mean perfection at any cost, but care for the details until the work fulfills its purpose. In Maya numerals two bars represent it, and ten is the number of fingers on both hands, with which human beings shape and create. The Planetary tone belongs to the third quarter of the wavespell, in which the project is realized. It marks the moment when planning becomes fact. The Planetary tone invites you to complete something with care and to give it the finishing touch.
