At the heart of my TREE OF TIMES – AIKAINPUU approach is to help our souls to return home. The mythical journey often begins with a calling from our core self. For me, over a decade ago, one of these experiences was when a Chol Q’ij birth chart suddenly illuminated my own inner Soul Tree, in a sudden flash. In that expansive and revelatory moment I experienced my alignment with the vibrating intelligence of a cosmic time matrix. I felt with my whole body that the symbolic cosmogram I was looking at was connecting me with a deepest truth of my Soul and its mission. It was a great gift – and an experience, that I have been ever since wanting to pass on, and dedicating my path of practice for several years to be able to do so.
My experience ignited a calling to begin in-depth studies of Maya Time Wisdom. As a cultural artist-researcher, I was developing at the same time my own way of opening the intricate dimensions of the Chol Q’ij birth chart. During my years of practice, the current Chol Q’ij SoulTree Ceremony was born. It has its roots in the sophisticated multi-calendar system of Mesoamerica, especially in the living traditions of the daykeepers of K’iche’ Maya of Guatemala and their sacred 260-day Chol Q’ij calendar, which spiritual guides have been cherishing and keeping alive from generation to generation, for hundreds of years.
The calculation of a Chol Q’ij cosmogram is based on birth data. The foundational design I apply is consistent with my K’iche Maya daykeeping lineages. Creation of an accurate Chol Q’ij reading requires a careful consideration of many variables and elements, to form an interrelated composition. These two phases – calculation and contemplation – are then followed by a creative process, when I will begin to draw in an intuitive way the Chol Q’ij SoulTree, for each person. Preparing this mythopoetic visualisation is an essential part of the ceremony: the words and messages that are emerging during this artistic process are unique.
During our co-creative ceremonial journey, we are attuning to the intricate wholeness of your Chol Q’ij birth chart, mapping its strengths and challenges, its light and shadows. The tree-shaped drawing contains the stages of life: step by step we will follow your Soul Path, evolving from conception through childhood, adulthood and elderhood to the highest legacy. The purpose of the ceremony is to open a sacred space where you can experience the composition of your inner consciousness, embedded in the energy field of the Chol Q’ij time matrix. People often feel a deep integration of their life story, realization of the interrelatedness of its elements and a meaningful alignment with their deepest purpose.
