On July 25, the Day Out of Time or Green Day was celebrated, the day of the Mayan calendar dedicated to meditate and reflect on the gains, achievements and lessons learned before welcoming a new cycle.
Immediately after, the Mayan New Year 2021 began, known as “the year of the Yellow Electric Seed”, characterized by the energy of creativity and growth.

Unlike our Gregorian calendar, for the Mayan civilization the year has a duration of 13 months of 28 days. That is the time it takes for the Earth to make a complete revolution around the Sun.
The western almanac imposed in 1582, and used since then, is based on the idea that our planet revolves around the Sun for 365 days and every four years one more is added (on February 29, which defines the leap year), to adjust the phase shift six cumulative hours per year.

End of the blue lunar storm
From July 26, 2020 to July 25, 2021, the year of the Blue Lunar Storm took place. That cycle was characterized by chaos and permanent challenges.
That challenge where our ability and energy to reinvent life in different aspects was put to the test, is now part of the past. Although, all these experiences will serve to reap what was sown in the midst of adversity.
The new year of the Yellow Electric Seed proposes to cultivate spiritual growth to detect the obstacles that block the goals. The seed marks the will to be more aware of the reality in which we live, and requires a personal balance, because it expands both the good and the bad that we have cultivated within us.
That individual flourishing will later have an impact on the vocation of service, collaboration, cooperation and help towards others. The “electric” energy symbolizes that inner light of each being, which should no longer be used for personal confinement, but for a collective work that unites humanity.
The metaphor of sowing questions what we are planting today to create new realities and what resources we will have in the future. In this sense, the defense of environment will increase in this new cycle aligned with the useful life of the planet.
The new stage will consist of the search for the creativity, gifts and talents of each person to contribute to the environment: it will not be enough to be, but also to do more.
