How do you use the Mayan Calendar in your everyday life? Do you combine it with the Gregorian calendar?
I follow the Mayan calendar mainly and only used the Gregorian calendar for court dates and appointments. I have practically "lost" the feel of days in a "normal" sense (Monday, Tuesday, etc.) I try to do "nothing" on days that the calendar says to do "nothing". It is very amazing to see that you can live in the 3D world but not let it control you if you step out of it as much as possible. I never wear a watch and have been more on time that when I wore a watch. There are no real clocks in my home.
How has the Mayan Calendar influenced or changed your way of life or thinking?
I do not set alarm clocks anymore unless I have to be in Court or somewhere else important. I have no fear for the future at all. I do still worry, but that has lessened greatly in the past three years. I am learning to do more creative things instead of living so linear and logically. I am learning to live in the present instead of always focusing on the future.
What challenges or difficulties have you encountered in integrating the Mayan Calendar into your daily life?
Listening to people tell me I am crazy and living my life in a "weird" way. Many of my peers cannot believe that I am not a slave to the billable hour but still live decently (actually quite well, although not rich by any means at all). It has been difficult to re-train myself on how to live when it goes against everything I was taught as a child and young adult.
What do you feel are the benefits of living with the Mayan Calendar?
Freedom. Complete freedom of life. Once you get into the flow the miracles and creative process really fly, but I am guessing that is happening because of where we are as a collective in the calendar. The dark ages went much slower.
Dr. Calleman's book was truly the one that "tied it all together". What an educational journey for the past few years and well worth it or I believe I would be going insane right now.
