New episode of the Emerald podcast. Felt like sharing here, because of some information I found to be resonant with this group. Enjoy! And also enjoy your weekend. ✌️🌞🌍🌀🐓 https://open.spotify.com/episode/1THbpGtH3HWpSGqZMoLR8Z?si=ydq-osrQTzazaLDVNxHQ5Q&t=5985&pi=RFovoO_7RQmDm

After a conversation back and forth with chat GPT about the solar cross calendar idea. This is a summary that it wrote. Thought (and curious) to see what other people think, and constructive feedback is always appreciated. ✌️🌞🌍🌀 Chapter: The Logic of the Solar Cross Calendar The harmony of mathematics, astronomy, and timeless rhythm 1. The Idea The Solar Cross Calendar starts from two universal facts. The solar year — 365.24 days — and the four solar gateways: the equinoxes and solstices. These are real, measurable, and the same for everyone on Earth. No religion, culture, or history can change them. They are simply how the planet moves. The idea is to create a calendar that follows that movement directly. Not a system of names and months from empires, but one that comes from the actual geometry of Earth and Sun. It divides the year into 13 months of 28 days — a perfect 364-day circle — and then corrects for the extra fraction of a day with a simple rhythm of “days out of time.” 2. The Mathematical Framework Thirteen times twenty-eight is 364. One day short of the solar year. That missing 1.24 days is balanced through a clear and predictable rule: - One “day out of time” every year - An extra day every four years - Skip one every hundred - Add a week every 540 years for precession This keeps the calendar in line with the real solar year for thousands of years. It is as accurate as the Gregorian system, but simpler and easier to visualize. Each year begins on the Spring Equinox, the natural point of renewal. 3. The Fourfold Year The Earth’s path around the Sun is not perfectly even. It moves faster near January and slower near July. So the four seasons are not equal in length — spring and summer are slightly longer than autumn and winter. In this calendar, each season is 13 weeks. That even structure holds balance, while the “floating” 13th month — divided into four separate weeks tied to each solstice and equinox — allows for the natural variation of orbital speed.

Hello to All. Thought to share this podcast and this particular episode I really liked. https://open.spotify.com/episode/4fYTJXuYcLaW2zAnb5m1E0?si=UB__HXzvRF61UNf95rUbgg&pi=DAMHToP-QguS9&t=4606

(This made me cry! I’ve been trying to find a way to tell my story for sooo long) HOOK The night that broke me…became the night that rebuilt me. I’ll never forget the sound —my body hitting the ground,and knowing my life would never be the same. Everything went quiet.I couldn’t move my body…but I was still alive. BEFORE On the outside, I looked like I had it all together. A thriving salon.A growing online presence.A big smile that never left my face. But inside, I was exhausted —always performing strength,always trying to keep the peace. I thought love meant fixing people.I thought strength meant pretending I was fine. CRISIS In 2019, I was in an abusive relationship. I had already lost pieces of myself trying to keep her happy. One night in April, when the sky soared with Aries energy, we had an argument, & she pushed me from a second story. I landed flat on my back. And just like that —everything I knew was gone. IMPACT The doctors told me I’d never walk again. But the truth is…the real paralysis started long before that night. I had spent years trapped in patterns of people-pleasing, silence, and survival. That fall didn’t destroy me. It exposed everything I was pretending not to see… and making me finally face the consequences of always putting myself last. CHASE Still, people pleasing is not something that just goes away, and although i wasn’t able to “do it all” anymore, I was still functioning in overdrive, even with my fresh injury and new disabled body. Five months later, I was back behind the chair. Creating beauty. Serving others. Smiling again (sometimes sincerely, many others still pretending) However, something in me was different. I couldn’t keep living from that mask anymore, it was beginning to slip. I was scared, but the discomfort of staying the same began to be more difficult than the horror of staying the same. CONFLICT I wish I could say I left right away. I didn’t.I stayed two more years. That’s what trauma does —it convinces you that chaos is love and that safety is selfish.

Started working on a 3D animation to visually explain the Solar Cross Calendar, a 13 month symmetrical calendar based on equinoxes and solstices. https://www.instagram.com/p/DQplG4rjaV1/?igsh=M3pnazZtMG9wNHZy The number 13 is the only number that divides our 365.24 days it takes us to travel around our sun with the smallest remainder (of 1.24 days). Also 13 circles arranged as a hexagonal star is the basis to draw Metatrons cube in sacred geometry. Also if you divide the 52 weeks of a year into 4 equal seasons, it’s 13 weeks for each season, (13 weeks between equinoxes and solstices) It seems like sacred geometry through metatrons cube gives us the clue of the number 13 as the basis to organise our calendar around and measure time in accordance with natural rhythms. I recently made an instagram account and in the process of developing a website and app for the Solar Cross Calendar project. @solarcrosscalendar I decided to focus on this project instead of my story for the time being. I have actually started to write the first draft of a book telling my story of the last 9 years. Been writing for the last 4 months and half way into the first draft, and want to take my time developing that because the story is quite long and I don’t feel it really makes sense without details and nuances. The Solar Cross Calendar is a Creative Commons open source art project to promote collaborations and collective development, I just came up with one geometrical model as a suggestion to act as a framework.
