| La muerte en el mundo maya |
https://twitter.com/RebecaLane6/status/1189984831511367680?s=20
' Cuando era pequeño, mi tía me decía que tratara bien a los perros porque ellos me atravesarían el río cuando muriera. No entendí esta frase hasta mucho tiempo después.
Mi tía es maya kaqchikel, del altiplano de Guatemala y mantenía un amor profundo a los perros, quienes serían sus vigilantes al morir, ella se refería al xoloitzcuintle, que menciona la cultura mexica, en el mundo maya es el Tzi', el cuidador, el guía.
Ella no leyó estudios antropológicos sobre el inframundo maya, pero sí escuchó la tradición oral de sus abuelas y abuelos, eso fue suficiente para tener identidad.
El tema de la muerte en el mundo maya tiene diversas aristas, muchas interpretaciones y entenderlo va mucho más allá de querer verlo desde el mundo occidental. Primero debemos desconectarnos del tema infierno/ cielo. En el mundo maya no existe eso
Existe un supramundo, un mundo terrenal y un inframundo, al que se le da el nombre de Xibalba, que en idioma maya quiché significa El lugar del miedo. Xibalba no tiene relación con el infierno cristiano.
Es un lugar de pruebas que está por debajo de nosotros, donde están las enfermedades, pero también las curas. Donde está la muerte, pero como renovación, no como el fin.
Es, de alguna manera, difícil de entender en un principio, porque dentro de la formación occidental se nos enseña que para el bien existe el mal. En la cultura maya solo existen desequilibrios y esas variaciones energéticas provocan enfermedades, la noche del cuerpo
Según el Popol Wuj, libro del mundo maya, en Xibalba existían dos grandes líderes, quienes eran los que ponían las pruebas a quienes se atrevieran a buscarlos: Jun Kame, Wukub Kame, que traducido pueden llamarse como 1 muerte y 7 muerte.
Ellos regían el inframundo y eran quienes daban las curas para ellas. En el calendario lunar maya, existen dias dedicados a Kame para curarse.
Estos encuentros, llamados en la actualidad como ceremonias mayas se realizan en las entradas de las cavernas o al pie de los cerros. Esto simula la entrada al inframundo donde habitan los Señores de Xibalba.
Ellos eran conocidos como los Señores de Xibalba. El inframundo maya no tenía un carácter de castigo o de un fin, sino de un lugar de paso, por donde todos tenemos que pasar, ya sea la muerte o la enfermedad.
Lo narran los héroes gemelos en el Popol Wuj, Jun Ajpu e Xbalamque quienes para derrotar a los Señores de Xibalba piden ser destruidos en el fuego, son arrojados al río, se transforman en peces y regresan como dos ancianos magos, para derrotar a los habitantes de Xibalba.
El inframundo también está relacionado con las aguas, en el caso de los cenotes, las cuevas inundadas. Se relacionan con la caída de agua dentro de las cuevas, que hacen el sonido del juego de pelota maya, conocido como Pok ta Pok, eso que tanto molestó a los Señores de Xibalbá.
Míctlan, Xibalbá, Nith y Hel engloban un solo concepto: el del mundo subterráneo, el submundo, el mundo inferior, el infierno (del latín: ínferus, inferior, de abajo) 'el cual corresponde al tercer plano mitológico del universo primitivo indígena: el reino de los muertos
El día Kame no es un día dedicado a la muerte como un fin, es un día de transición, de pasar de un estado al otro, de pasar del día a la noche. Esto le da un carácter natural y no de tragedia. También es un día para comunicarse con los abuelos, consultar.
Kame es lo único seguro, todos nacemos y lo único certero es que algún día volveremos al origen. '

| Death in the Mayan world |
https://twitter.com/RebecaLane6/status/1189984831511367680?s=20
' When I was little, my aunt told me to treat dogs well because they would cross the river when I died. I didn't understand this phrase until a long time later.
My aunt is Maya Kaqchikel, from the Guatemalan highlands and she had a deep love for the dogs, who would be her watchmen at death, she was referring to the Xoloitzcuintle, which is mentioned in Mexican culture, and in the Mayan world is the Tzi ', the caretaker, the guide.
She did not read anthropological studies about the Mayan underworld, but she did listen to the oral tradition of her grandmothers and grandparents, and that was enough to have an identity.
The theme of death in the Mayan world has different edges, many interpretations and understanding it goes far beyond how people want to see it from the western world. First we must disconnect from hell / heaven. In the Mayan world that does not exist.
There is a superworld, an underworld and an underworld, which is given the name of Xibalba, which in Quiche Mayan language means ‘the place of fear’. Xibalba has no relation to Christian hell.
It is a place of testing that is below us, where there are diseases, but also priests. Where death is, but as renewal, not as the end.
It is, in some way, difficult to understand at first, because within Western formation we are taught that for good there is evil. In the Mayan culture there are only imbalances and these energy variations cause diseases, the night of the body.
According to the Popol Wuj, book of the Mayan world, in Xibalba there were two great leaders, who were the ones who put the tests to those who dared to look for them: Jun Kame, Wukub Kame, which translated can be called 1 death and 7 death.
They ruled the underworld and they were the priests for them. In the Mayan lunar calendar, there are days dedicated to Kame to heal.
These meetings, called today Mayan ceremonies, are held at the entrance of the caves or at the foot of the hills. This simulates the entrance to the underworld where the Lords of Xibalba live.
They were known as the Lords of Xibalba. The Mayan underworld did not have the character of punishment or an end, but of a place of passage, where we all have to go, whether in death or illness.
It is narrated by the twin heroes in the Popol Wuj, Jun Ajpu and Xbalamque who, in order to defeat the Lords of Xibalba, ask to be destroyed in the fire, are thrown into the river, transformed into fish, and return as two wizards to defeat the inhabitants from Xibalba.
The underworld is also related to the waters, in the case of the cenotes, the flooded caves. They are related to the fall of water inside the caves, which make the sound of the Mayan ball game, known as Pok ta Pok, that so disturbed the Lords of Xibalbá.
Míctlan, Xibalbá, Nith and Hel encompass a single concept: that of the underground world, the underworld, the lower world, hell (from Latin: ínferus, lower, from below) 'which corresponds to the third mythological plane of the indigenous primitive universe: the kingdom of the dead.
Kame day is not a day dedicated to death as an end, it is a day of transition, of moving from one state to another, of passing from day to night. This gives it a natural character and not tragedy. It is also a day to communicate with grandparents, consult.
Kame is the only sure thing, we are all born and the only certainty is that someday we will return to the origin. '

“It’s The Little Things” - Awake with Rabbi Lauren Holtzblatt
I noticed the other day, we have a yellow rose bush on our front lawn that blooms every year. As I was out with my son yesterday smelling the roses, I saw something...
Vesper Moore's post, including this article by Stefanie Lyn Kaufman-Mthimkhulu vehemently supported by community members:
' We need more peer support and community response networks. We need to put power back into the hands of the people. We need the people most impacted to not only give input but to run and be responsible for the inception of all system services. We need those who are marginalized to take the lead in each community not out of expectation or tokenization but humanization.
“Replace the cops with mental health workers!” is a really well-intentioned statement, but the current mental health system is also a white-dominated, violent, coercive, and unaccountable structure that disproportionately harms people of color.” — Morgan M. Page '

' Cymraeg, or Welsh as its known in English, is, according to the last count, spoken by 23% of the population. Up until 1850, 90% of the population spoke Welsh, but it has since faced a great many challenges which at times almost led to its extinction.
Potentially up to 4,000 years old, Welsh is one of the oldest living languages in Europe. Welsh originates from the Celtic language spoken by the ancient Britons. Before the Roman invasion Celtic languages were spoken across Europe as far as Turkey. Celtic language came to Britain around 600BC, with one version evolving into Brythonic which formed the basis of Welsh, Cornish and Breton.
When the Anglo-Saxons colonised Britain, Brythonic speakers were split up into those in northern England speaking Cumbric, those in the south-west speaking an early version of Cornish, and those speaking primitive Welsh. The Welsh spoken in the 12th to 14th centuries, or Middle Welsh, is what the earliest surviving manuscripts of the Mabinogion, its famous literary collection, are written in, and it is a Welsh which speakers today can more or less understand.

A Brief History of the Welsh Language
Read all about the fascinating history of the very old language of Welsh, still an official language of Wales to this day.
' Would you be surprised if I told you that, far from being a land of monoglots, there are ten indigenous languages spoken today in the British Isles? Yet we are very quick to tell ourselves that we're rubbish at languages. We are linguistically isolated monoglots, marooned on a cluster of islands on the edge of the Atlantic. If we were in the mix of mainland Europe, we tell ourselves, we'd be blethering away in at least two languages.
Except, as you read this, people the length of these islands are using indigenous languages other than English to communicate with friends, family, teachers, colleagues and public services. That they are in the minority doesn't meant that they don't exist. In fact, the numbers of primary school-age speakers are growing; almost a quarter of school pupils in Wales are educated through the medium of Welsh, Northern Ireland is home to 30 Irish-medium schools, Scotland's capital has just opened a new, dedicated Gaelic school due to increasing demand, and the Isle of Man has a Manx-medium school.
All of these children are also fluent in English; indeed, in the case of Gaelic-medium pupils, they outperform their English-educated counterparts in English tests. Their bilingualism bucks the monoglot trend of the majority. '

Though EFC and we surely have our differences, his recent astrological piece describes the oft-invisible violence of traumatic robotization, highly relevant to recent network discussions.
' Mars Conjunct Chiron: The Initiation
We are about to experience the first Mars conjunction to Chiron in Aries. The most recent conjunction of Mars to Chiron occurred in late Pisces on Dec. 29, 2018, during Chiron's transition from Pisces to Aries. Mars and Chiron are conjunct about every two years, following the cycle of Mars.
I could say a lot about this aspect -- it's one of my favorites of the lot, inviting the full activation of Chiron by Mars. However, in Aries, this aspect has special meaning. That's because I consider Aries to be the scene of the crime where electrical technology has turned people into a swarm of tribal robots.
This aspect, exact July 14, can have a few possible manifestations. Under the best circumstances (balanced person, communicative environment), it's about the healthy and bold expression of individuality. Chiron's mission is to turn injuries and wounds into healing gifts. This happens over time, with experience and maturity.
Under less ideal circumstances, this aspect could provoke a deep feeling of injury, related to the sensation of loss of identity. As the McLuhans have noted, violence is an attempt to find one's identity. Total immersion in electrical technology, particularly digital technology, has gone a long way to deplete people's sense of being.
So this could also result in the eruption of aggression and conflict as associated with being clueless about one's actual reality -- which would be a misplaced attempt to "find oneself." I guess we have to resort to desperate measures after living online for 20 years -- that makes anything and everything in the physical world too dangerous to even consider.
In the end, that is what we're experiencing with this whole virus thingie: the reason it's the result of digital consciousness is not just that it's been amplified and distorted by social media and 24-hour news feeds, which make it impossible to tell which way is up, unless you work with a research team.
The real crisis is that from the cool, clean, and most of all disembodied standpoint of the digital universe, anything pertaining to the body is diseased and disgusting. And that has taken us a long way from home. '
