2 Transformer/CIMI

Greetings on this day of 2 (duality), Transformer/CIMI (changing consciousness; life, death, rebirth)

Galactic Tone 2
Mysterious as the question "to be or not to be," 2 brings the recognition of the separation of self from all else and the desire to be rejoined. Walking in balance while making all kinds of choices - light/dark, male/female, good/bad, ying/yan... is the energy of this number. Experiencing the differences between one and another is the use and purpose of this number's energy.

Transformer/CIMI
Transformer/CIMI is the Day Keeper associated with life, death, and rebirth. Death was in the ancient sources considered as the luckiest of days. Those born under the Destiny of CIMI are often very successful in business, and may also be excellent healers who may calmly guide others through their transformation of life, because of their own spiritual strength. They support pregnant women and guide them through the lasting transformations at key period of their lives. Among the Maya, life was generated by death and the contact with ancestors served to activate inherent psychic abilities. Their challenge in life is to live it fully and not give in to defeatism. Usually Death persons have the mission to walk the path of their spiritual ancestors and bring their messages among the living people of this planet and share it with everyone. They have the need to transcend death and to be a World-Bridger between heaven and earth.

The combination of 2 Transformer/CIMI calls us to turn our dreams and intentions both ways to consider all that it is or could be, and all that it is not. The breath of inspiration becomes matter as we further define what our creation is meant to be. The Transformer encourages us to draw upon the ancient wisdom of the Elders.

GREEN KIN: 106
The Kin number of the day is similar to the Julian date on the Gregorian calendar. This is the 106 day of the 260 day Mayan year, and one of the 52 “portal days” for activation. Portal days are time cycle intersections that help facilitate the receptivity of cosmic knowledge. Within the grid of the Tzolk’in that uses the mathematics of 28, portal days connect us to the cycles of the moon through mathematics. This calendar “grid” resembles the strands of our DNA.

On portal days, we feel the effect of two powerful cycles at once. We find that cosmic remembrance is clearer and very activated on these days. We also find major events happen on portal days. This green day cycle accelerates as we are now entering the middle of the 260-day Mayan year, with Green (portal days) occuring daily over the next 10 days.

A good day to be open to new information and awareness and to tie up loose ends related to your goals and intentions.

Love in a Recipe - Mom's Chocolate Sheet Cake

One of the things I love about my Mom, is that everyone who enters the door is offered something wonderful from her kitchen - this is my favorite thing. This is seriously one of the best recipes in my entire collection - the fastest and BEST chocolate cake you will ever lay hands on. You just can't screw this up!

Mom's Chocolate Sheet Cake

The Cake...
2 Cups Flour
2 Cups Sugar
1 Stick Butter
5 Tablespoons Hershey's Cocoa
1 Teaspoon Vanilla
1 Cup Water
1 Teaspoon Soda
1/2 Cup Buttermilk
2 Eggs
1 Teaspoon Salt
1/4 Teaspoon Cinnamon
1/2 Cup Oil

First - preheat the oven to 400 degrees (that is not a typo).
Get a big sauce pan, you are going to mix the batter in there. Melt the butter with the oil, water, and cocoa and bring to a boil. Take off the stove immediately, and add all the dry ingredients, EXCEPT THE SODA. Dissolve the soda in the 1/2 Cup of Buttermilk, then add this, the eggs, and vanilla and mix till smooth. Pour batter into a sheet cake pan - those big pans that are a little deeper than a cookie sheet. (I line mine with parchment paper, or grease and dust it with flour.) Bake for 20 minutes ONLY, or until it springs back.

The frosting...
You are going to use the same saucepan, so rinse and start over for the frosting. This doesn't take long, and you pour it over the cake while it is still hot - only 5 minutes out of the oven... so I usually start this about 5 minutes BEFORE the cake is done.

1 Stick Butter
5 Tablespoons Hershey's Cocoa
1/3 Cup Buttermilk
1 Teaspoon Vanilla
1 Box (2 1/2 Cups) Powdered Sugar
1/2 Cup chopped pecans (optional)

Melt the butter with the cocoa til well dissolved. Add the buttermilk and vanilla - mix. Add the powdered sugar and keep this on a low burner... just to keep it from setting while you are mixing. By now, your cake should be out of the oven - add the nuts if you want them in the frosting - then pour this over the cake. (The frosting sets up like a homemade MMMMM fudge and holds all the moisture in the cake... will stay moist for days like that.)

OMG - Never baked this for ANYONE that they didn't go ape over it. You can leave out the cinnamon, though just a tad is unrecognizable - just "something" good people can't quite put their finger on. TRY IT.

I'm packing boxes for my move, and just couldn't bear the thought of not being able to find this recipe that I love so much. Hope you enjoy it. AND THANK YOU MOM!
