The Maya
Yes, it’s that time of the year again and many of our loyal readers and clients are wondering when Julie Powell’s Mayan Calendar will come out. Well, Julie sent me a copy of a letter she sent to Nellie responding to just that question. Saves time to just share it here… Can’t wait to get a copy of the latest calendar! I have saved every one since they came out in 1997 and cherish the work and art that Julie creates anew every year.
Hi, Nellie, Happy New Year!
Thanks for your message/inquiry about the Mayan Calendar for July 2008- July 2009.
Yes, I will have a calendar available this year, but not until this coming week. It is going to be a bit different because I have prepared more material on the meanings of the numbers, day signs, and uinals. I have not included the illustrations as in the most recent years. I have a full-color cover and limited color on the inside pages this time - mostly designs or drawings which appear behind the text. I will put it on a disk and take it to the printer on Monday.
Once I have it back I will know what my cost is and can determine a price. Thank you for asking about it. I hope all is well with you and I will be in touch as soon as I have the calendars in hand this week.
Julie
Note: In case you are not aware of it now, today marks the last of "The Dead Days" on Julie's calendar. Whew! Will i be glad when they are over! Nothing goes as directed or stalls in the middle and falls, so we are directed not to start anything new or do much during this 5-day period, too.

This is your day. Doubt it? Then you are not working according to your own plan for this world and time. Why not? Too much trouble to decide what goal you would like to achieve now? Too hard to keep your mind on one goal now? Try.
This morning I sent out a mailing to a few friends of my work and have received many responses, but this one needs to be shared here with everyone here.
Wow Ruth,
I had just read about Randy Pausch passing away...
Then received your email...
I had the thought earlier today to call one of my aunts and uncle to just
say I was thinking of them and say thank you for being who you are, and that
I love them. I was happy thinking of them and just thought to tell them so.
Then I had that gremlin come in and tell me how strange and silly they would think
I was for doing such an out-of-the-ordinary thing. You know what Ruth?
This is an out-of-the-ordinary day, and why not make it an out-of-the-ordinary life?
Why can't I be known for doing special things like that, instead of letting the
gremlin win? I am going to make that phone call.
Thank you for making a difference in my life!
Love, Rebecca

Before you work out of your mind on a project that is not needed now, think about where it fits into the scheme of your life. If you work hard to please another and never feel pride that you did it for your own life, you will leave that work one day and not have a good thought about all the time you spent doing it now. Try to keep your mind open to when you are alone and able to be your own boss and not have to worry about the cost.
Hi Ruth,
I was adoring the outdoors today! Setting on my porch swing and soaking up the sunshine and the constant breeze. It was the MOST perfect day!
I pulled out some notebooks to jot in and found where I had written and connected with my guides, I think. LOL I remember writing it and the answers came pouring through before I could finish writing the question. In another session that I found, I was told to write, write, write, to connect.
Interesting that I was told twice to go chant!
I know you’re busy, but thought you might find it interesting. And is it really this easy to connect?

This is a first! I just have to report about the most wonderful relaxation I have experienced in a very long time. I feel energized and ready to take on the world now!
What is really weird is that I have been listening to my own recording of a session that I taped for an upcoming series of classes I will be offering this fall. I have never before been able to truly enjoy my own work in this way! It was so amazing! And the wildest thing about it is that my cat, Gypsy, followed along with me and relaxed and stretched and tensed as if she were listening to the cues, too.
I just love it and I feel that is okay to say because I did not really create the text, just scribed and repeated it and then listened. I am going to listen to it every day until the classes begin in September and report then about the total impact of beginning or ending your day with this deep, deep relaxation work. Hope you can feel the tentacles of that deep relaxation reaching out to you! I feel maaaahhhvelous, as Billy Crystal would say.

Work on your own and find out what you alone can do. Only then can you admire what others do that is not easy for you and yet they do it so much better than your very best effort. If you cannot do that, advise your mind to seek out jealousy and study it and rid yourself of it today.
Today I thought I would share with all of you a wonderful letter from one of our friends that keeps us all in touch with what is going on around us all now, and always. Think about how you can apply her lessons to your own life.
Hi Ruth,
I have been so busy with family/kids things that I have been struggling to center the past few weeks. I had the thought come to me early yesterday that I had not been meditating and not connected with my guides, and I desperately needed to! I apologized to Moses as it seems that he was sending me a direct message. I refer to this one particular guide as Moses.
OK, relevance to your email sharing winning pictures.

Weak and tired you can get very little done on this plane, but it never stops you from meditating and praying and connecting with God.
A smile for you from Lynne with love!

This came my way today …. Have a magical day. Blessings, Kay
Thanks, Kay... I think many others will enjoy it as well.
“I have simply stopped arguing with reality. How do I know the wind should blow? It's blowing. How do I know this is the highest order? It's happening. Arguing with 'what is' is like teaching a cat to bark. (I love that line!) It's not very fulfilling. I am my friend and no longer confused. The way I know that reality is good is that when I argue the point I experience tension, fear and frustration. I lose - not sometimes, but 100% of the time. It just doesn't feel natural inside: no balance, no connection. I want reality to change? Hopeless! Let me change my thinking. Some of us mentally argue with 'what is.' Others of us attempt to control and change 'what is,' and then tell ourselves and others that we actually had something to do with any apparent change that took place. This leaves no connection or room for God in my life. In the peaceful experience of no opposition to God, I remain aware of my nature: clear, vibrant, a friend, a listener.” ~ Byron Katie
