Since her travels through Mexico and Guatemala, Nicole studied and lives according to the 13-Moon Calendar. She is a designer/artist and writer, holding workshops about the 13-Moon Calendar in Holland and Europe, with a focus on the experience and practice in daily life. Day by Day in the Mayan Way!
“I studied Art, Landscape and Architectural Design. I was so fortunate to have a teacher who made me aware that it is possible to read a location before designing; many times the place asks us for a certain type of use. Studying the architectural history, you find that monuments are placed on locations with a strong energy and many times a legend arose concerning the site. I visited power places in Europe; standing stones and stone circles in France and England like Stonehenge, churches built on old sacred sites, places with stories like the Arthur legend in Tintagel. I felt that sometimes a place was so happy to get focused attention that I felt the urge to bring people together on these sites. First, I used architecture and art as the medium. But later I sensed that people are looking for a way to express themselves on power places. We have forgotten the ceremonies; we have forgotten how to pray and how to act. It was painful to see the uneasy behavior of the people at the sacred fountain in the forest in Brittany. But who am I to stand up and guide them?
Well, I am 10 BEN, Red Planetary Skywalker. The affirmation for the Skywalker is: “I am your messenger of the Light. I give to you the ability to travel through time and space." As a Skywalker I am the messenger, and sometimes the ropedancer, balancing high in the sky. Tone 10 is about Manifestation. People with tone 10 change raw material and information into something visible and tangible. For me, to be 10 Ben, is about giving shape to the unseen connections, to the message. In WebCraft, my work as a designer/artist, but also with the MoonCraft activities, like the moon-ceremonies and 13-Moon Calendar workshops, I bring people closer to their inspiration and make the cosmic connection tangible.”

Sylvia runs her own business of pre-press and design in Amsterdam. She took the initiative to start making this 13-Moon Diary. She wondered why a diary like this didn't exist yet.
According to the 13-Moon calendar, she should be doing what she does: giving form to the foundation from which all birth can originate (Dragon Wavespell), bringing people and ideas together (Tone 12). She considers the 13-Moon calendar as a path, but adds: “there are many roads that lead to Rome,” (Human).
"Twenty-three years ago I travelled three months through Mexico and visited the Maya sites. During that time I was not yet familiar with the advanced Mayan knowledge of time cycles.
Since my connection with the Tzolkin and 13-Moon Calendar, I accelerated in a synchronized flow. From that moment on I have the urge to make manageable 'tools' for natural time in day-to-day life. To support our integration and transformation, I developed the Tzolkin day seals as stickers and the 13-Moon (menstrual) cycle calendar, which you can download as PDF from this site. Synchronicity is leading my development of more natural time tools.
