Meaning

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.

In Everyday Life

Today, take attentive care of what sustains you—food, rest, the people close to you—and give room to a beginning, even if it is still small.
