What the Maya say about the dreamspell
“Regarding the dreamspell and work of Argüelles: It has been made clear, I think everybody here understands the need to distinguish this system from any relation to the Mayan tradition. […] This is the wish of the elders, that the confusion and misrepresentation cease.”

“In my view, the central message of the Mayan calendar is that we are living in an exact divine time plan that has a higher purpose in store for humanity at the completion of linear time. If we are able to make this time plan conscious to broader groups of people the prospects of this intended divine time plan manifesting will directly increase. Yet, in many parts of the world broad groups of people are blocked from knowledge about the divine time plan because the Dreamspell/Thirteen Moon calendar falsely has been presented as the Mayan calendar and hence this calendar still needs to be discussed.”

The dreamspell/13 Moon Calendar

A calendar has a very vital role in the events that occur within a society. It points out what days to celebrate, use as traditions and the days to consider holidays. The calendar is the dead center of any civilization and has such a deep grasp that the people within that society are typically very unaware of the power their particular calendar has on their consciousness.

The Gregorian calendar is based on repetitive rotations of the Earth around the sun. The span of years never changes because this cycle never changes, which results in the consciousness that everything is dead matter for us to exploit and use for our needs, wants and desires.

The dreamspell calendar is directly connected to the Gregorian calendar and is a very mechanical calendar that is based on the astronomical year. The moon has a cycle of 29.5 days rather than 28 like the dreamspell claims, which is what this system is based on entirely

The dreamspell calendar claims that the end of the Mayan calendar is December 21st 2012 when in fact the true Mayan calendar ends on October 28th 2011. This is why it’s so important for people to understand the dangers of the dreamspell calendar.

3 Main differences

1) The dreamspell jumps a day on leap year (every four years). In other words February 29th is not considered a day on the dreamspell calendar. Because of this, one day every four years is removed from the calendar. They refer to this day as the “day out of time”. The Maya understand that each day has a sign and a number assigned to it without any exception. The key thing to understand with this specific difference is the fact that leap year is an event that happens within the Gregorian calendar and was not even put into place until 1582 by Pope Gregory. How could this be the true Mayan calendar when one of the primary parts wasn’t even established until the late 1500’s?

2) The Tzolkin has a connection to the 13 Baktun cycle within the prophetic Tun calendar, known as the Long Count. This same 13 step process is directly connected to the smaller cycles of Trecenas (13 day cycles). The smaller and larger examples of this 13 step process reproduce the same energies of time. Since the dreamspell makes a shift every four years on February 29th the flow will only stay consistent for 4 years until making a new shift. The True Mayan calendar remains in the same flow of creation because it doesn’t skip days and continues with the same flow and pattern it always has.

3) The prophetic Tun calendar is based entirely on non-physical cycles directly connected to the energies of time and evolution. The dreamspell however is connected to the solar year of our planet. The main difference to understand here is that the Mayan calendar relates not only to our planet but it also relates to every other planet within our solar system. It relates to every planet and every galaxy within the entire Universe. The Tun calendar began with the initial event known as the Big Bang, which itself is connected to the universe as a whole. With this being said the Mayan calendar is equally valid on Earth as it is on Mars or any other planet within the Universe. It makes no difference how long the year is on any of these planets because the true Mayan calendar isn’t calculating any astrological cycles.

The dreamspell has made a huge impact on the awareness of the true Mayan calendar and I do not support the dreamspell in any way. It’s very important for people to understand the differences between these calendars and to realize that the Maya people do not consider the dreamspell to be their calendar, nor have they ever.
