Going to the Great Northern Sea of Europa,
The Baltic and Celtic world,
Since before the current era.
Within the Aztec circle of days,
A rectangle from the symbol for movement,
Moves from the top towards the left,
One day at a time.
Sigel - - Follow the sun’s path
Rad - - South across the Ocean
Ear - - And ours will be joy
Wyn - - And the happiness and prosperity
Daeg - - Of the bright day.  More >

Returning to Egypt,
Between the Sky and Heavens above,
And the Land and Earth beneath our feet.  More >

Images in profile, face to face.
As the underlying structure.
I’ve altered the spiral at the shoulder
Into a ten-petaled flower,
With an Aztec motif at its very center,
Thereby linking the Scorpion throne of Lake Tenoctictlan
With the throne room of the Mycenaeans,
According to my artist’s prerogative.  More >

The scorpion is carved into Rock
Which serves as a throne
or chair of authority.
The tail is the symbol
Of the obsidian knife of sacrifice.
There are eighteen clusters
Of stalks, all of which save one
Is bound with a ribbon.
Within a cycle of eclipses,
Which may last for several hundred or a thousand years,
An eclipse returns every eighteen years,
to a place a third of the way around the planet,
and every fifty-four years,
returns to nearly the place of its previous occurrence,
with a small but noticeable shift in latitude.
The rope of continuity
Extends or emerges from
The body of this creature.

The symbol at the bottom is decidedly
Unbalanced, in motion,
Marking time.  More >

From Egyptian Geometry.

Within the context of the Aztec calendar,
including the intertwining glyphs
of Fire and Water.
That symbol for the union of those elements
may also be seen in the November 17 entry.  More >

In Charge of Measurement.

In charge of a Lot of things,
According to some interpretations.
Here we have an Omphalos,
The Globe or Hemisphere
As a symbol of the Earth,
With two sharp eyed birds
Eyeing each other from opposite
Sides of the globe, and through
the vertical two-armed Measuring device.

Across the chessboard of Eurasia,
One cannot help but wonder,
How we got from there,
To where are we now?  More >
