13 Moon Calendar



Dragon, White Wind, Blue Night then Yellow Seed. It can also be seen as the four weeks of any 28-day Moon, Red Week (Days 1-7), White Week (Days 8-14), Blue Week (Days 15-21) and Yellow Week 4 (Days 22-28).
Each of the four colors themselves have unique attributes:
Red (East) Initiate - Knowledge
White (North) Refine - Humility
Blue (West) Transform - Patience
Yellow (South) Ripen - Power
The same four colors also have unique relationships to each other:

“Analog” (supporting) relationships:
Red + White;
Blue + Yellow

“Antipode” (challenge/strengthening) relationships:
Red + Blue;
White + Yellow

“Occult” (hidden/unexpected) relationships:
Red + Yellow ;
White + Blue

If simply we apply these relationships to some of the key words of the colors (such as Knowledge, Humility, Patience and Power) - some simple yet profound principles arise along with an elegant type of “galactic teaching.” Observe:
 
Support
Red
supports Humility
Knowledge
  • supports Knowledge
    Humility
  • supports Power
    Patience
  • supports Patience
    Power

    • Challenge/Strengthening
    • challenges/strengthens Patience
      Knowledge
    • challenges/strengthens Knowledge
      Patience
    • challenges/strengthens Power
      Humility
    • challenges/strengthens Humility
      Power

    Unexpected/Hidden
    • is hidden in Power
      Knowledge
    • is hidden in Knowledge
      Power
    • is hidden in Patience
      Humility
    • is hidden in Humility
      Patience

    This is just one example of how a few patterns of the 13 Moon Calendar can become a fascinating rabbit hole! For instance, you could apply this same logic to the other key words for the colors:     initiating, refining, transforming, ripening... Such as, Initiating and Refining are mutually supportive. Refining and ripening are mutually challenging/strengthening... (Like, have you ever written an article and just can't stop editing it? The article's refinement is tugging in the opposite direction of its ripening!)

    As you can see, and as with all facets of the 13 Moon Calendar, the rabbit hole is as deep as you want to go.

    But the key here is this: Following the 13 Moon Calendar creates a     weaving in time of opportunities to reflect upon these types of fundamental principles. For example, a slow-drip method of learning about knowledge, humility, patience and power! 😎
    How? Well here’s a bit of homework if you’re so inspired:
    Remember how I said that each week is coded by one of the four colors? And every daily galactic has one of the four colors? Well, you can utilize this to meditate upon the color of the day in relationship to the color of the week. For example, if it’s a     Yellow day in the Red week it is a day of Power within a week of Knowledge. Or, if it’s a Red day in the Red week, you have a day of double Knowledge!
