Phase 1 of the Maya Culture
Previously I detailed the amazing planetary show of October-November 8208 BCE that the Maya were watching on Isla Tigre, Honduras. The Maya had already acquired many cultural components by that time, including the gods Ahwilix (a baby raft), Hacawitz (a flat-topped volcano where they discovered tobacco), and Tohil (the tobacco god), jaguar spirituality, the domestication of animals, and cultivation.
So when the planetary show happened the Maya took it as a sign, a new sun, as the Popol Vuh says. In order to understand more deeply what this new sun meant, I have calculated the astrological chart with the help of Solex software.
In addition, Ceres is at 27 1, Gemini, Pallas is at 27 42, Scorpio, and Vesta is at 18, 3, Cancer. This is day -1276244.5 Julian. Venus and Mars were conjunct on Oct 27 at 18, 59 Cancer; Venus and Jupiter were conjunct on Oct 29 at 21, 9, Cancer; and Mars and Jupiter were conjunct on Oct 31 at 21, 25 Cancer.
The main two subjective decisions I made with the chart were whether to make the chart for Oct 31, when the Moon was part of the multi-conjunction in Cancer, or Nov 1, when the moon had passed. I decided to go with Nov 1, which is mainly due to my interpretation of the Tiguilotada stone where the moon is a much shorter line than Venus, Jupiter, and Mars, which I think means it wasn't part of the conjunction being recorded. The second decision was whether to make the ascendant at sunrise or before sunrise when the planets could be seen. I decided that it should be when the planets are visible since the name of this event was "Seven Greetings, Seven Rising Objects".
What does the chart tell us? I'm not an astrologer, but I would say the multi-conjunction in Cancer, a water sign, highlights the importance of water to the Maya and with Jupiter part of it, could indicate foreign travel by water. The multi-conjunction takes place in the 11 house, which emphasizes friendship and social organization. Pluto is opposite the multi-transit, emphasizing the transformational nature of the Maya. The Mars-Pluto opposition, which normally might indicate violence, is tempered by Venus and Jupiter. Finally the Virgo rising sign and Virgo sun indicate attention to detail and a scientific disposition. The Uranus-Neptune opposition indicates curiosity, keen intuition, and proclivity to the psychic.
Communication with the Mayan ancestors is facilitated for those with bodies making strong angles with the angles indicated in the chart.
