Seal 20
Sun · Ahau
Shining so that life may appear
Action enlightenPower universal fireEssence life
The Yellow Sun is the twentieth seal and closes the circle. Its action is to enlighten, its essence is life, its power is universal fire. It gives light and warmth without asking to whom, and makes visible what was in the dark. To enlighten here means to see clearly and to let others see. Yellow is the color of ripening, and in the Sun the whole round of seals ripens into wholeness. It belongs to the matrix time cell and the Polar Earth family, and opens the Fire Clan, to which the Dragon, Wind, Night, and Seed also belong; thus from its light the next beginning is born. In the planet holon it corresponds to Pluto; there the galactic-karmic flow begins, running inward. In Hunab Ku 21, it carries the archetype of the Enlightened One. The Sun reminds you that every life has a light of its own, which warms when it is shared.
Tone 13
Cosmic
Being whole, then moving on
Action endurePower presenceEssence transcending
Question How can I expand my joy and love?
The Cosmic tone is the thirteenth and last tone of the wavespell. Its action is to endure, its power is presence, its essence is transcending. To endure here means persistence: remaining until the path has been walked to the end. Then the whole is transcended, and the experience of the wavespell condenses into pure presence. Its question is: How can I expand my joy and love? In Maya numerals it appears as two bars and three dots. Thirteen is the number of the movement that keeps the circle of the twenty seals turning without end: after the thirteenth day a new wavespell begins, with a new Magnetic tone. As the last of tones 1, 5, 9, and 13, it brings back the color of the wavespell’s seal once more. The Cosmic tone invites you to look back, recognize what has been achieved, and move on with an open heart to the next stage.
