mayan glyphs read thus right to left:
ya-ah-la "her mother's child"/ ye-be-ta "his messenger"/ ek-yi "star war" ek y-otoot "fire venus" "in her house" hul ool-wa "arrive at heart"/ japay/way "maw, portal to the Underworld"/ way-ib "dreaming place"/ chum-ajaw ti chan "sit as ajaw in heaven"/ t'abay-y aj-ts'ib-ba "ascend raise exalt" "the scribe"/ aj-k'uh-hun-n(a) "she of the holy books(codices)"/ "29 days"/

If anyone has any suggestions on how to make that more comprehensive, please let me know.

underneath the mayan glphs runs a band of "duats" the egyptian glyph for star, or, when encirled a portal to the underworld. the other stars pictured are pentacles (otherwise know as pentagrams) in honor of the lovely Venus and her constant tracing of the same symbol across our sky, reaching completion every 8 years.

Essentially I wanted this to read as a story about a shamaness or good witch pulling in some strong energies for the greatest good for herself and all of humanity.... reaching a state of ultimate enlightenment thru knowledge of the rhythms of the earth and communication with the stars she becomes the royal librarian, the higest ranking scribe, joyously recording her times in an effort to recreate a sacred portal into an esoteric realm previously unglimsped by the majority of beings...a place where we dream our reality into existence...centered in source/heart/anahata energy, sahasrara: blooming effulgent like the birth of a thousand suns...

we are gods, my friends, let us not forget. walking dream-matrix magi.

as always, try not to super-impose my ideas over your own core reaction to this work of art. it is important to me the that you feel free to interpretate my art in any way applicable to you. any commentary is greatly desired and appreciated. if you haven't full-viewed it you haven't seen it. thank you for looking.
