Happy Galactic RetURn to Kim, whose name (11+9+13) = 33, same as her Kin number! Today is also Kim’s ‘solar-Galactic Return day of her Solar-Galactic Return year (so she was born 52 years and one Galactic Spin ago) as a Resonant Skywalker 🙂
Today’s numbers ‘Resonate‘ and Synchonize so strongly 🙂 Both the 13 Moon date (Day 17 of Moon 7) and the day’s Seal and Tone (13.7) indicate Lord Seven Earth, coded by Kin 137: 17.7. Today’s Analog, Resonant World-Bridger reminds us that this third week of the Resonant Warrior Moon is coded by it’s Challenge; Resonant World-Bridger: 6.7. The Star, today’s Hidden Power codes the 6th and 7th Chakras of our 7th Bolontiku, whose Heart Oracle matches today’s.
Today’s Challenge, Resonant Night codes the Day-out-of Time between the end of the 7 Mystic Moons and oUR Galactic Synchronization on Galactic Seed 2013.
Kin 33’s G-Force is Solar Eagle (mentioned in a beautiful poem from Priscella Kin 214: “An eagle and a hawk soon soar above“ which also serves as a reminder that next Moon’s totem is the Hawk) The PSI for Resonant 17 is kin 133, which also codes Christine Electric Skywalker.
Today’s CDK (Combined Dreamspell Kin coding this Year, Moon and Day) is PVCS Rhythmic Mirror which coded Valum Votan’s death. Synchronistically, Kim’s birthday falls on the day TMQ determined (reported in the blog for the anniversary of the discovery of his tomb; June 15)) is the day Pacal Votan disincarnated: 5/11, which is one possible reason that Kin 5.11-(Spectral Serpent) is also a Pacal Votan Clear Sign 🙂
That means that today is the Solar-Galactic Return of Pacal Votan’s Disincarnation. Perfectly sealed by today’s Long Count of 5.11: PVCS Red Spectral Serpent!!!
That same post revealed that (according to TMQ’s calculations) Pacal Votan’s 27th Solar-Galactic Return (of 52 years each) occurred on Magnetic 7 2007, the same day that Valum Votan laid the Cube Crop Circle in the fields of England. Synchronistically, this is revisited on day 3 of Week 27, on the day of his ‘other Solar-Galactic Return’.
13.7: “The alternative personality in tandem with other alternative personalities enters the flux tube which is engaged by the projection of mental electrons and mental electron-neutrons (cultivated through the creation of the Heptagonon of Mind/Primal Cubic Parton). The interaction of the pattern of focused mental electron-neutrons within the electromagnetic field of the flux tube system sets up a wave pattern which provides the means of transport for the time traveling telepathic “crew.'”
GAMMA 17: PACIFY; THIRD EYE 
SOUNDING THE DOUBLE OCTAVE OF THE LOST CHORD
Day 17: Kin 133 (19×7) (16) SP-Mars; Signal-Solar Plexus, Red Skywalker, Tone 3
Step 11: Land of the Loving Ones, Highest vibration of LOVE, Fifth Supreme Time; Fifth Green Castle of Enchantment, enter the Court of the Matrix.
Cube 11: MonKEY SP Venus (7) Magic–Black Iron Garuda Crest
Sound LA (A) and MI (E)
TMQ found it interesting, that (for some reason) on top of yesterday’s post, the kin number (32) appeared in large letters. It felt perfect, when Priscella Kin 214 sent this link: 32 : http://www.tulane.edu/~sanelson/eens211/32crystalclass.htm which corroborates and helps to explain Valum Votan’s Postulate for Kin 164 Galactic Seed (James) (4.8) which states in part: “…32 represents the complex order, Crystal, from whose binary dialectic the secondary reflex life (64) is sprung.”
Cheetah, Cosmic Serpent inspires us with this: “It is our combined sight; our combined KNOWledge; our combined WISEdom that will prevail. So we must keep our sight on the light of the rainbow and not be drawn in. To all who love the planet, EYE LOVE YOU!
Another Cosmic Serpent, delivered some URgent messages he was channeling for Spirit, on PV 4 Dog. TMQ is heeding the advice which was received by Kin 65 in a powerful way he has experienced on only a handful of occassions.
On Resonant 18 (exactly 19 Moons since this blog began on Magnetic 18) TMQ will spend 5 days in 13:20 Natural Time, at a festival which offers plenty of Yoga, music, inspiration, and time for ‘writing by hand.’
She expects to retURn in time to write the blog for the last day of oUR Resonant Cube JoURney, Kin 38: Crystal Mirror, which is coded by the PSI of her kin: 138; Galactic Mirror.
Her first full day ‘back’ will be coded Kin 39; Blue Cosmic Storm, whose Postulate
Pacal Votan repeated so often:
19.13; “All is number. God is a number. God is in all.”
Enjoy this truly magical Magic Turtle Day!
More Magic and Synchronicity just arrived via Christine kin 133:
| Note this ‘runaway Star’s name: “This infrared image from NASA’s WISE telescope shows the runaway star Zeta Ophiuchi as it creates a bright shockwave (yellow arc) in an interstellar dust cloud as it zooms through space.” NASA/JPL-Caltech/WISE Team On the day and PSI coded by Seal 13: Skywalker, we receive news from 3 Skywalker which is a stunning reminder of OPHIUCHIUS, the newly reinstated 13th Astrological sign 🙂
The time is now 1:26 on Greg. date 1/26 🙂

Dear Christine;
Thank You 🙂
Please realize that many comments (like this one from you) are inexplicably sent to be ‘approved’.
Where I’m headed, Takaka Hill in Golden Bay (http://www.luminatefestival.co.nz/luminate2011.php) is known for it’s extra-terrestrial presence, which is a great tradeoff for the fact that there will be no cell phone or internet access.
But that means many comments won’t appear until my retURn.

KALI 11: Kin 34: White Galactic Wizard (14.8) codes the 11th day of the11th Spectral Serpent Moon of Liberation.
What a cool day! The 11th day of the 11th Moon in the 22nd year since the Harmonic Convergence! 1.22.11.11 And in a 4.4 year! And Galactic Wizard is the Kin that began the Dreamspell count! And of course 11.11 is Valum Votan’s Galactic Signature, and happens to be my G-Force as well And the meditating TMQ, White Galactic Mirror, is our Guide!
The Codespell for White Galactic Wizard:
“I harmonize in order to enchant
Modeling receptivity
I seal the output of timelessness
with the galactic tone of integrity
I am guided by the power of endlessness.”

On this Galactic day of the Blue Hand Wavespell we “command integrity” and affirm that “action attains form.”
KAL! 11 corresponds to the sacral chakra, and today we place the plasma seal on the back of the Radion cube. “My name is the glorious Lotus-Born. I catalyze the light-heat within.”
We place a solid line, the fourth line of our RADIANCE OF JOY Codon 58, also on the back of our Codon cube. “Establish the Fourth.”

Dear Christine, grateful for UR effort to keep oUR Cube linked & synched!! I have had nothing but HAND issues this HAND Wavespell, supposedly brought on by a ‘perfect’ 😉 combination of awkward keyboarding/mousing position while my computer was in transition, too much snow shoveling, and X-country skiing with poles just a wee bit too short!! For a writer it’s been very frustrating not being able to write longhand or type or even mouse (who ever thought that would be a verb? LOL) too much!! The cURe is rest, I am told. Ha! Not so simple if your lifestyle involves hewing and carrying wood and looking after farm animals! Whatever the lesson, I resolve to have learned it by the time we begin the Sun Wavespell on PVCS Kin 40!!

Go ahead with your dreamin’
For what it’s worth
Or you’ll be stricken bound
Kickin’ up dirt
For when it’s dark
You never know what the night it may bring
Go ahead with your schemin’
And shop at home
You’ll find treasure
While cookin’ up bones
But the knife is sharp
You’d better watch that you don’t cut your hands
And they covered up the sun
Until the birds had flown away
And the fishes in the sea
Had gone to sleep
And they covered up the sun
Until the birds had flown away
And the fishes in the sea
Had gone to sleep
Go ahead with your dreamin’
For what it’s worth
Or you’ll be stricken bound
Kickin’ up dirt
For when it’s dark
You never know what the night it may bring
Go ahead with your schemin’
And shop at home
You’ll find treasure
While cookin’ up bones
But the knife is sharp
You’d better watch that you don’t cut your hands
And they covered up the sun
Until the birds had flown away
And the fishes in the sea
Had gone to sleep
And they covered up the sun
Until the birds had flown away
And the fishes in the sea
Had gone to sleep
Holy Moses our hearts are screaming
Souls are lifting only dreaming
We’ll be waiting some are praying
For a time when no one’s cheating
The sunlight rising over the horizon
Just a distant memory a dawn chorus
Birds singing bells ringing
In our hearts in our minds
And they covered up the sun
Until the birds had flown away
And the fishes in the sea
Had gone to sleep
Love,

Hmmm…
Why does this matter in connection to the World Service closures? If we are to find a silver lining to this particular cloud, it can be argued that the cuts will lead to a sizeable number of extremely able and dynamic journalists, all trained in the highest editorial and production standards, being let loose in countries crying out for a more mature and balanced media, at a time when the barriers to entry into the media have been lowered considerably. Something similar happened when the BBC closed its operations in countries such as Romania and Poland. Maybe the Albanian, Serb, Macedonian and other journalists that now face the uncertainty of losing their jobs will, in the longer term, form the kernel of a more vibrant domestic journalistic culture in years to come.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cairo
Attempted to plant “official government link” from Wiki – gone.
Cairo is also in every respect the centre of Egypt, as it has been almost since its founding in 969 AD. [ The majority of the nation’s commerce is generated there, or passes through the city. The great majority of publishing houses and media outlets and nearly all film studios are there, as are half of the nation’s hospital beds and universities. This has fueled rapid construction in the city—one building in five is less than 15 years old.
This astonishing growth until recently surged well ahead of city services. Homes, roads, electricity, telephone and sewer services were all suddenly in short supply. Analysts trying to grasp the magnitude of the change coined terms like “hyper-urbanization”.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mosque_of_Amr_ibn_al-As
The Mosque of Amr ibn al-As (Arabic: جامع عمرو بن العاص), also called the Mosque of Amr, was originally built in AD 642, as the center of the newly-founded capital of Egypt, Fustat. The original structure was the first mosque ever built in Egypt, and by extension, the first mosque on the continent of Africa.[1][2] Motherland Program Enact.
According to tradition, the original location was chosen by a bird. [Single Wing Red Fire] Amr ibn al-As, by order of Caliph Umar, was the first Arab conqueror of Egypt. In 641, before he and his army attacked the capital city of Alexandria (at the northwestern part of the Nile river delta), Amr had set up his tent on the eastern side of the Nile, at the southern part of the delta. As the story is told, shortly before Amr set off to battle, a dove laid an egg in his tent. When Amr returned victorious, he needed to choose a site for a new capital city, since Umar had decreed that it could not be in far-away Alexandria. So Amr declared the site of the dove’s egg sacred, and made it the center of his new city, Fustat, or Misr al-Fustat, “City of the Tents”. Later, the Mosque of Amr was built on the same location.
Oh. maya. F[r]ACTiON begins…
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sahaba
The most widespread definition of a companion is someone who saw Muhammad, believed in him and died a Muslim. Those that saw him but held off believing in him until after his passing are not considered Sahaba but Tabi`in.[1]
Lists of prominent companions usually run to 50 or 60 names, being the people most closely associated with Muhammad. However, there were clearly many others who had some contact with Muhammad, and their names and biographies were recorded in religious reference texts such as Ibn Sa’d al-Baghdadi’s (Muḥammad ibn Sa’d) early Kitāb at-Tabāqat al-Kabīr (The book of The Major Classes).
Muhammad ibn Ahmad Efendi (died 1622), who is also known with the sobriquet “Nişancızâde”, the author of the book entitled Mir’ât-i-kâinât (in Turkish), states as follows:
“Once a male or female Muslim has seen Hadrat Muhammad only for a short time, no matter whether he/she is a child or an adult, he/she is called a Sahaba with the proviso of dying with as a believer; the same rule applies to blind Muslims who have talked with the Prophet at least once. If a disbeliever sees the Prophet and then joins the Believers after the demise of Muhammad, he is not a Sahaba; nor is a person called a Sahaba if he converted to Islam afterwards although he had seen the Prophet Muhammad as a Muslim. A person who converts to Islam after being a Sahaba and then becomes a Believer again after the demise of Prophet Muhammad, is a Sahaba.”[citation needed]
It was important to identify the companions because later scholars accepted their testimony (the hadith, or traditions) as to the words and deeds of Muhammad, the occasions on which the Qur’an was revealed, and various important matters of Islamic history and practice (sunnah). The testimony of the companions, as it was passed down through chains of trusted narrators (isnads), was the basis of the developing Islamic tradition.
[edit]Other links in the chain of Isnad
Because the hadith were not properly written down until many years after the death of Muhammad,although there were many individual written copies, the isnads, or chains of transmission, always have several links. The first link is preferably a companion, who had direct contact with Muhammad. The companion then related the tradition to a Tabi‘un, the companion of the companion. Tabi‘un had no direct contact with Muhammad, but did have direct contact with the Ṣahāba. The tradition then would have been passed from the Tabi‘un to the Tābi‘ at-Tābi‘īn, the third link.
The second and third links in the chain of transmission were also of great interest to Muslim scholars, who treated of them in biographical dictionaries and evaluated them for bias and reliability. Shi’a and Sunni apply different metrics.
[edit]Number of companions
Some Muslims assert that there were more than 200,000. It is believed that 124,000 witnessed The Farewell Sermon Muhammad delivered after making his last pilgrimage, or Hajj, to Mecca.
The book entitled Istî’âb fî ma’rifat-il-Ashâb by Hafidh Yusuf bin Muhammad bin Qurtubi (death 1071) consists of 2,770 biographies of male Sahaba and 381 biographies of female Sahaba. According to an observation in the book entitled Mawâhib-i-ladunniyya, an untold number of persons had already converted to Islam by the time Muhammad died. There were 10,000 Sahaba by the time Mecca was conquered and 70,000 Sahaba during the Battle of Tabouk in 630.
[edit]Views of the companions
The two largest Islamic denominations, the Sunni and Shi’a, take very different approaches in weighing the value of the companions’ testimony.
[edit]Sunni views
Main article: Sunni view of the Sahaba
According to Sunni scholars, Muslims of the past should be considered companions if they had any contact with Muhammad, and they were not liars or opposed to him and his teachings. If they saw him, heard him, or were in his presence even briefly, they are companions. Blind people are considered companions even if they could not see Muhammad. Even unlearned Muslims are considered companions. However, anyone who died after rejecting Islam and becoming an apostate is not considered a companion. “Whom God is pleased with” (Arabic: رضي الله عنه raḍiyu l-Lāhu ‘anhu) is usually mentioned by Sunnis after the names of the Sahaba.
Regard for the companions is evident from the ahadith:
It was narrated from ‘Abd-Allah ibn Mas’ud that Muhammad said: “The best of the people are my generation, then those who come after them, then those who come after them.”[2]
Sunni Muslim scholars classified companions into many categories, based on a number of criteria. The hadith quoted above shows the rank of ṣaḥābah, tābi‘īn, and tābi‘ at-tābi‘īn. Al-Suyuti recognized eleven levels of companionship. However, all companions are assumed to be just (udul) unless they are proven otherwise; that is, Sunni scholars do not believe that companions would lie or fabricate hadith unless they were proven to be liars, untrustworthy or opposed to Islam.
[edit]Shi’a views
Main article: Shi’a view of the Sahaba
Shi’a Muslims do not accept all companions as just. The Shi’a believe that after the death of Muhammad, the majority of the sahabah turned aside from true Islam and deviated from Muhammad’s family, instead electing the caliph by themselves at a place called Bani Saqeefa, they did this by a majority vote and elected Abu Bakr as the first Caliph. Although some of the sahabah repented later, only a few of the early Muslims held fast to Ali, whom Shi’a Muslims regard as the rightful successor to Muhammad. Shi’a scholars therefore deprecate hadith believed to have been transmitted through unjust companions, and place much more reliance on hadith believed to have been related by Muhammad’s family members and companions who supported Ali. The Shi’a believe (and supported by many Sunni Narrations) that the Prophet had during his lifetime already announced his succession,firstly at Dawat Zul Asheera,during many, then many times during His Prophethood and finally at Ghadeer e Khum, where he was announced as his successor, and where all those present congratulated him, including those who were after elected as the first,second and third caliph by the people. There is also evidence from Sunni sources that on the Day of Judgement when the Angels will be leading the sinners to the fires of hell, The Prophet will Stop the Angels and ask God, “Why are they been led to the fires of hell, These were my Suhaba”, and then God will reply “Are you not aware what they did after you”. This shows the Shi’a view supported by Sunni sources that even though The Prophet had many companions at the time, they were not all equal or just. Where as the Sunni view claims that all Suhaba were true and just regardless of their positions and backgrounds.

O Men, intercalation or tampering with the calendar is evidence of great unbelief and confirms the unbelievers in their misguidance. They indulge in it one year and forbid it the next in order to make permissible that which Allah forbade, and to forbid that which Allah has made permissible. The pattern according to which the time is reckoned is always the same. With Allah, the months are twelve in number. Four of them are holy. Three of these are successive [Ramadan, Shawwal, Dhu al-Qi’dah] and one [Rajab] occurs singly between the months of Jumada and Sha’aban. O Men, to you a right belongs with respect to your women and to your women a right with respect to you. It is your right that they not fraternize with any one of whom you do not approve, But if they abide by your right, then to them belongs the right to be fed and clothed in kindness. Do treat your women well and be kind to them, for they are your partners and committed helpers. Remember that you have taken them as your wives and enjoyed their flesh only under Allah’s trust and with His permission. Reason well, therefore, O Men, and ponder my words which I now convey to you. I am leaving you with the Book of Allah and the Sunnah of His Prophet. If you follow them, you will never go astray. O Men, harken well to my words. Learn that every Muslim is a brother to every Muslim and that the Muslims constitute one brotherhood. Nothing shall be legitimate to a Muslim which belongs to a fellow Muslim unless it was given freely and willingly. Do not, therefore, do injustice to your own selves. O Allah, have I conveyed Your message?
