Summary
What is the true nature of time? Can our minds ever hold the essence of this concept or will it always slip through our fingers like sand? Embark on an enlightening journey with Vision Battlesword and Herald Aho Now as they unravel the cosmic tapestry of our existence. From the political manipulation of calendars to the harmonious rhythms of the galactic cycles, they traverse realms of physics, perception, and art. Uncover how conceiving of "Time As Art" can transform your life, tap into your inner wisdom, and discover a multidimensional understanding of the universe. Tune in for a cerebral voyage that promises to alter your perception of reality and invite you to dance in the cosmic ballet of Time.
SUMMARY
In this episode of "Sacred Conversations," Vision Battlesword hosts Herald Aho Now discuss the manipulated nature of our current calendar system and its political origins, which skew our perception of truth and coherence. The conversation delves into the interconnectedness of time with natural cycles, advocating for a more holistic approach aligning with these rhythms. Herald Aho Now criticizes the "time is money" mindset for its role in creating life imbalances and highlights "pinch points" as opportunities for growth amid global challenges. Emphasizing a more artistic view, he promotes the "Galactic Calendar" (Dreamspell Calendar) as a guide.
The duo shares their history, having met at a festival called Medicine for the People. Herald owns Infinite You Wellness Plus Synergy, while Vision founded Sacred Light. The Galactic Calendar is compared to and contrasted with traditional astrology, offering insights and correlations into significant life events via glyphs, tones, gap days, and portals. Herald also touches on gut instinct, astral cartography, and the importance of intuitive understanding.
Both discuss the transformative "Day out of Time" celebration, relating it to human creativity. They contemplate time as a dimension filled with information, akin to a hard drive's data storage, and propose that one’s perception of time links to their "light quotient." Herald advocates structuring time artfully, integrating the Mayan calendar with modalities like the I Ching. Concluding, they address the anomalies of the Gregorian calendar and its adverse effects on human evolution, underscoring a shift towards viewing time as an evolving, multidimensional stream of creation.

Vision Battlesword [00:00:01]:
Herald Aho Now, my good friend, how long have we known each other? Do you remember?
Herald Aho Now [00:00:06]:
Wow. Before the first Astronox.
Vision Battlesword [00:00:12]:
Yeah. Medicine for the People. Is that where we met?
Herald Aho Now [00:00:15]:
Yeah, I believe so.
Vision Battlesword [00:00:17]:
I feel like we met in the thick of a very strange time. You know, that 2020, 2021 portal that we were all going through, and I. Yeah, I feel like it was. Oh, I think I met. Oh, I know what it was. I met you, certainly, at a festival. I think it was the first Medicine for the People I ever went to. And I stopped by your booth.
Vision Battlesword [00:00:41]:
That was where I first met you. You remember that one, right?
Herald Aho Now [00:00:44]:
That's right. Cause you have a pendant.
Vision Battlesword [00:00:46]:
I bought a pendant from you. That's right.
Herald Aho Now [00:00:48]:
Yeah, that's where it was.
Vision Battlesword [00:00:50]:
So. I was so impressed with your work as an artisan. I was impressed with you as a person, your energy, your wisdom, your just open heartedness. I felt like we just dropped in super quick, you know, and just had this connection and, like, okay, yeah, I don't know when, I don't know how, but we're going to. We're going to be friends. We're going to be connected somehow. And then you came to Sacred Light in April of 2022, and then, I think Amber, almost exactly a year later. Right? 2023 in the spring.
Herald Aho Now [00:01:22]:
Yeah.
Vision Battlesword [00:01:24]:
It's been a beautiful time that we've had together, kind of weaving our stories, and I'm really happy that we're weaving them again, you know, a little closer together now. And thanks so much for, you know, spending this time with me to get into a really interesting conversation. I hope and I fully expect, and I. Before we do that, I'd just like to ask you to introduce yourself to everyone. Who are you, Herald Aho Now?
Herald Aho Now [00:01:54]:
I'm a father. I'm a family man. I am the owner of Infinite You, Wellness Plus Synergy. It's basically my spiritual awakening, quantified into a business. And how can I be the change that I wish to see? I'm a human. I'm here on planet earth, and I'm here to be of service.
Vision Battlesword [00:02:15]:
Beautiful. Well, as you know, I'm Vision Battlesword. I'm the founder of Sacred Light, creator of intentional autonomous relating, and I'm the host of this audio series, Sacred Conversations. And I thought maybe today we would spend a little bit talking about time, because I know that's a topic that's very interesting, and I. Profound for you. It is for me as well. And I think for most people, it's. It's sort of one of those things that's just like, one of the puzzles of this experience that we have this.
Vision Battlesword [00:02:48]:
The nature of this universe that we inhabit, what is it? And you didn't introduce me originally to the concept of the galactic calendar, but you certainly, you know, have been one of the people that's expanded that idea for me very greatly, you know, since I was originally introduced to it. And I think for myself and a lot of other people, it can seem very complex at first and confusing, and, like, what is this all about? Is this just kind of a different form of astrology? But you've really helped me to understand it better over time, and I'd love to kind of really get our hands dirty with that in this conversation today, starting with, I guess I just realized, even I think, today or yesterday, that I totally skipped over the day out of time this year, or I'm sure I didn't skip over it. I'm sure it happened, but I wasn't aware of it at the time, or.
Herald Aho Now [00:03:41]:
Yeah, no, we got time. It's actually. It's actually the 25th of this month.
Vision Battlesword [00:03:46]:
Oh, I thought it was like the 25th of last month.
Herald Aho Now [00:03:49]:
No, that's Violet Ray's birthday.
Vision Battlesword [00:03:53]:
Fantastic. Okay. Okay. Right. July. Okay.
Herald Aho Now [00:03:57]:
Yeah.
Vision Battlesword [00:03:57]:
Okay, so we're still in. What is it? Blue Lunar... What's the year?
Herald Aho Now [00:04:02]:
It's the White Overtone Wizard.
Vision Battlesword [00:04:04]:
Oh, this is White Overtone Wizard that we're in.
Herald Aho Now [00:04:07]:
Yes.
Vision Battlesword [00:04:07]:
I must be thinking of the previous year. I must have missed a year somehow.
Herald Aho Now [00:04:11]:
This is where we'll get. We'll get into how these glyphs and tones and stuff like that start to, like, cycle through. And that's a really cool thing, how this calendar system works. But, yeah, we're in the White Overtone Wizard. So when you look at that, you're going to look at White Wizard as the tribe.
Vision Battlesword [00:04:29]:
Yeah.
Herald Aho Now [00:04:30]:
And then Overtone is the tone. And. Yeah, so that's. That's the year that we're in. So this white wizard, you know, there's a lot of magic. You know, wizards, what do they do? They like to play in the metaphysical. And I think, you know, a lot of people are dealing with that in all kinds of ways. And then the tone is, it's an overtone.
Herald Aho Now [00:04:52]:
So to me, because I like to just play with words. I'm not. I don't look into, like, oh, let me look at this galactic calendar and find out what someone else came up with. The meaning. For me, everything is about personal play, and when I can play with words and, you know, just the way things look as my soul integrates with things, where words have a deeper meaning for me. So overtone is like. It's a very pronounced set of information. It's an overtone for some.
Herald Aho Now [00:05:23]:
It may not be magical right now, but is an overtone of the metaphysical. So it's like us diving into these realms of the unseen. So we're experiencing that in a lot of different ways.
Vision Battlesword [00:05:36]:
Well, we're getting a little bit ahead of ourselves.
Herald Aho Now [00:05:37]:
Yeah, we are.
Vision Battlesword [00:05:38]:
So my first question, actually, for you is, what is time?
Herald Aho Now [00:05:44]:
Time is our baseline frequency. We operate in time, space time. Obviously, it's a measurement. You know, when you're measuring what you operate on, then that's. That's kind of how we walk through this life. And so I see it as a baseline frequency. If time is incoherent, then your baseline frequency is choppy. And when time is more harmonic, then your baseline frequency is more like, you know, waves that are predictable.
Vision Battlesword [00:06:16]:
Hmm. Is time a dimension of reality or a dimension of the universe?
Herald Aho Now [00:06:24]:
Oh, I don't know yet. I don't know how far it extends. You know, we hear stories of people going into the void where time doesn't exist. And so I take those accounts to heart when people are telling their stories, when they have, like, near death experiences or, you know, journeys or whatnot, and they go into this void where no time exists. So I don't know if it's a universal thing.
Vision Battlesword [00:06:50]:
So if we just kind of think about a couple of different perspectives on time, there's sort of the classical physics, the commonly accepted einsteinian, let's say, model, which includes three dimensions of space, length, width, height, xyz, however you want to think of that, and then a fourth direction, which is really difficult for our minds to comprehend because we kind of only really can think spatially in a way. But we have to kind of use our imagination and our intuition to detect this idea of a fourth direction that things can extend, which then we call time. And time is also considered to be relative. Well, space and time, as part of this kind of four dimensional fabric of reality, are malleable, are stretchable and compressible, bendable, curvable. So we kind of think of it as, like, a four dimensional geometry, or that's the einsteinian kind of classical physics model of things. But then there's a guy by the name of Matias de Stefano. Have you heard of him?
Herald Aho Now [00:08:00]:
Yes, I have.
Vision Battlesword [00:08:02]:
So I've listened to some of his talks and audio recordings where he talks about a nine dimensional or sometimes nine density model of the universe, starting from, really a zero dimension, complete unity, like thinking of things geometrically as a point, which technically has no dimension at all to it, and then moving into a first dimension, second dimension, third dimension of this space, and then the fourth dimension, or density being that one, which includes time, but then the fifth dimension moving to a kind of returning back to a timelessness, or all four of those dimensions collapsing back in on themself into all things all at once or ever present, if you will.
Herald Aho Now [00:08:54]:
Not the same.
Vision Battlesword [00:08:57]:
Not exactly. I think it's more like infinite simultaneity. Does that make sense?
Herald Aho Now [00:09:04]:
Yes.
Vision Battlesword [00:09:05]:
So it's like, it's not the absence of time. It's more like the completion of time, existing at all points in time.
Herald Aho Now [00:09:13]:
Maybe the access to time.
Vision Battlesword [00:09:16]:
Meaning what?
Herald Aho Now [00:09:17]:
Meaning you can traverse it.
Vision Battlesword [00:09:19]:
Yes. Yes. I think that's how Matias might describe it, although I think even the idea of traversing doesn't really make sense in the fifth dimension. I think maybe. Maybe the way he would explain it, because you're not traversing anything. You're just already there. You're already everywhere. You know, something along those lines.
Vision Battlesword [00:09:40]:
So I guess coming back to then, with a couple of different models now in hand, to just kind of think of coming back to our human experience, how does. There was something you said to me in a previous conversation that had to do with how our concept of time had been intentionally distorted. Do you remember that? Talking about, like, the Cesarean calendar. Gregorian calendar. Time is money. That little meme that we've been programmed with all these different things, how our sense of time has been distorted. And then coming back around to your belief that this idea of a galactic calendar is an antidote to that, where instead of time is money, or time is scarce, or whatever these other belief systems might be, we have a new one called time is art. Do you want to expand on that?
Herald Aho Now [00:10:35]:
Yeah, I mean, as a human or as a being, you know, I feel the purposes of us is to evolve, to learn. And with the hijacking of time and putting us what I call an incoherent time wave, it doesn't allow you to find the deepest parts of yourself without going through all the deeper processes of it. Imagery that's popping into my head is sending someone through a maze to find, you know, the end goal, which would be themselves, their authentic self, their true self, this harmonic art piece that is them. So instead of having that type of a landscape to traverse, it would be much easier to be able to hover above the maze and kind of see the road ahead of you, and that operates more in harmony with nature. I mean, because you can look at planets and stars and all these different things within our, you know, space, and they all operate on this natural cycle of whatever they go through. It's a natural cycle. And no one went to them and said, hold on a second. You need twelve months, and every month's gonna be a little bit different, and it's not gonna be this, like, harmonic beating of a drum that you can have a cadence to to start dancing.
Herald Aho Now [00:12:12]:
You know, the other thing that pops in my head is, like, listening to something, some music that you just can't dance to because the beats are off and you can't find a rhythm to it. And when you have something, that music that you're dancing to that has this galactic or cosmic rhythm, that it's harmonic, then you find yourself dancing and being able to maneuver that much easier because, you know, that next beat that comes is predictable. And so what the gregorian calendar does is it makes things a little bit more unpredictable. I don't remember every month and how many days are in each one. I've got a few of them picked out. Most people, you talk to them and you're like, hey, how many days in this month? And they got to look on their phone or a calendar to figure it out. That is not consistent. And then what they did is, you know, why we have time equals money is they put a working Monday through Friday.
Herald Aho Now [00:13:13]:
We work weekends. You don't. And they've indoctrinated us with things that just aren't aligned with our true even. Look at all the holidays. They've added it into the gregorian calendar, and now we're just buying sweets at every turn for every holiday and buying into the system that they created, which is time equals money. So either they're pulling money from you or they're trying to feed you money with a work week. But I feel when we jump into more of a harmonic timeline or baseline frequency that is of the universe, it's almost like your heart has a rhythm to it. It's more predictable on how you can find or navigate your way through it.
Vision Battlesword [00:13:54]:
I'm trying not to make every single episode of sacred conversations explicit by cleaning up my own language, you know, in terms of profanity. So I'm gonna say things a little bit more delicately. But it wasn't until our earlier conversation years in mind, which was only just like a week ago, that I. It really first landed for me just how much of a mind twist? And you can imagine what word I mean instead of twist. What? How much of a mind twist that little tiny program. Time is money. Time equals money is. Wow.
Vision Battlesword [00:14:40]:
I mean, that one's just. It's really spiraling out for me now and just in realizing how much damage that can do to our concept of both time and money by bringing those together and making them equivalent. This idea of the number of days in the month of our current calendar, our standard calendar, is really interesting to me as well. And there's a lot of super interesting history around that, how that came to be, like, what our calendar really is made of as a mashup of a bunch of earlier versions of how to account for time that then was shaped so heavily by, ultimately, politics. And the history of the month of February in particular is fascinating. I mean, had it ever occurred to you to wonder how come we've got eleven months in our calendar that have either 30 or 31 days and then we've got this one special month that only has, like, 28 or 29? What is up with that? Have you ever even thought to, like, investigate that? I happen to do it. I don't know how long ago, a year or two ago, and was just blown away by learning how that came about.
Herald Aho Now [00:15:58]:
I, you know, I haven't looked into a lot of the history of, like, the gregorian calendar, but I know when you list, when I've heard other takes on it, where, you know, you've got September, which. Sept is eight.
Vision Battlesword [00:16:12]:
No, Sept is seven.
Herald Aho Now [00:16:13]:
I'm sorry. Yeah, yeah, yeah. And. But it's on. Yeah. So October, that's the eight. Right.
Vision Battlesword [00:16:19]:
These July and August were inserted.
Herald Aho Now [00:16:22]:
Right.
Vision Battlesword [00:16:23]:
So September 7, October, 8, November, 9, December should be the 10th month, December. But then there were two that were inserted in the middle, named after two roman emperors, Julius Caesar and Augustus Caesar.
Herald Aho Now [00:16:38]:
Yeah, it's all politics. And, I mean, imagine just that mind twist of hearing these words that have the first part of it that actually means something that's literally taken out of where it should be to make it make sense for your soul. It's almost like hearing a lie and your inner Geiger starts going, you know, and what does that do underneath? We've all been indoctrinated with it for so long that you, you know, we don't even pay it any, any mind anymore. But subconsciously, there's got to be something going on. I mean, if you know someone's telling you a lie or not, even if you know, you don't have to know. There's a feeling emoted when a lie is expressed. And for someone that's wanting to not be a liar and want to tell the truth and want to be their best version and be transparent. Operating on something that is not coherent to equal what you're trying to be, will be a lot harder to try to find your balance.
Herald Aho Now [00:17:46]:
I really feel that a lot of people are sitting in this state of working on a timeline that is not coherent for their being. And when they go to find healing, it doesn't sit and stick as it could if we were operating in a world that made sense.
Vision Battlesword [00:18:07]:
Yeah, exactly. And to that point, we are inextricably embedded in our environment. When I'm thinking about our relationship with time, I'm thinking about our relationship with natural cycles. The sunrise, the sunset, the cycles of the moon, the cycles of the seasons, the cycles of the natural world. Growth, death, rebirth, reproductivity, all of these different things that are the ways that time intersects with our life, with our actual lived experience. Just starting from the most basic, the cycle of light and dark. And if you start to think about messing with people's concept of time, let's just say that you put someone into a completely enclosed room and start changing the light and the dark cycle, you can completely alter that person's circadian rhythm. And if that's out of sync with other things that a person or an animal, a being of any kind, might be sensitive to, be it gravity or electromagnetism, or other things that seem to be completely out of sync with whatever that other experience is, you could imagine going into a very confused or dysregulated state.
Vision Battlesword [00:19:31]:
And so the way that we track and measure time, and the way that we're sort of forced into these certain types of artificial cycles, whether it's an artificial calendar with a certain number of days in the month, which doesn't equate to a lunar cycle, or any sort of natural cycle, really, in a certain way, or daylight savings time. Don't get me started on DST, by the way, or just a nine hour workday that starts at some arbitrary point in the morning and goes to some arbitrary point in the early evening, that has absolutely nothing to do with the sunrises and the sun sets. Just all of these artificial impositions of a structure of time. It seems so obvious to me now how unhealthy that could be for creatures such as us, and how insidious it could be as a system of control. What do you think?
Herald Aho Now [00:20:30]:
Yeah, nail on the head. Because it's like, are we insidious? Or are we setting ourselves up for a pinch point for a new set of parameters? A lot of times you blend a positive and negative to alchemize, to bring about a new creation. And I feel it is insidious, but it's also something that our soul may have set up for ourselves to have an extreme growth period when our back is against a wall and we finally figure out, like, oh, my God, I've been duped this whole time. How do I get myself out of dupeness? It's a process, and you learn from that process. So I think it's not going to be easy to find yourself. But this is also why I feel my purpose is here. For this is to spread this word of, you know, finding yourself into a harmonic time wave. And, you know, if we just take how deep time is embedded in us, I mean, literally, what we said earlier is time equals money, and how important is money? So now time equals money.
Herald Aho Now [00:21:35]:
Money equals, you know, whatever it is for us. So now you have those two things literally entangled with each other, and now you got two systems that don't make sense to a human being. And you're saying, here, survive off of this and this. Now, wow, that's pretty tough.
Vision Battlesword [00:21:52]:
What do you mean by pinch point? I mean, I think I know what you mean, but I'd like for you to expand on it.
Herald Aho Now [00:21:57]:
Yeah, absolutely. So a pinch point to me would be this infliction point where you get a tight squeeze of whatever, you know, ingredients you're putting into the mix. And so when you have this pinch point of this data that comes through you and it's very close together, it starts to create this friction, and then this friction starts to heat things up. And as that heating happens, now you start getting things melting into each other and you create this alchemical process. And so the pinch point to me is we can see it in all of the world, and most of us are experiencing it with states of bliss, where the magic of the unseen or manifesting things or whatever, inspiration comes through. And then also at the same time, we've got this really extreme negative polarity that, I mean, it. It is hard to escape both of those processes right now. It's a point where you have this alchemization.
Herald Aho Now [00:23:05]:
Something's happening, it's a pressure point. It's your back against the wall. How are you going to reinvent yourself? And how are you going to get yourself out of that, that point? Because we're due for an expansion, a release of that pinch point, of that alchemization to go into the new world that we're desiring to create, co create and inhabit. And so there's got to be this infliction point that really says assess everything. What are you going to take with you? What are you going to leave behind? Now go.
Vision Battlesword [00:23:43]:
What makes you say that? You think we're due for one of these inflection points or one of these pinch points or contractions that leads to.
Herald Aho Now [00:23:51]:
A new expansion because of the direction of. I mean, if we take a look outside of ourselves and we see what's happening with wars, with, you know, our education system not being, you know, conducive for a human to come out and feel like they can actually survive in this world, you know, there's just so many things around us, the. The death cycle of. Of our loved ones, relationships being broken up because of what. And a lot of times it could be for the most simplest things. But again, when we go back to like, hey, this baseline frequency causes an exponential growth of incoherencies because it, you know, when we take one time, oh, it's incoherent. I can't seem to find my footing. Oh, money.
Herald Aho Now [00:24:42]:
I can't seem to make the money to survive. I mean, you're literally teeter, tottering, waving back and forth and creating this vibration within yourself that starts to really take you into a wobble. And if you're wobbling everywhere, it's kind of hard to go the direction that you want. Can't seem to figure. Figure things out with finances or time management. I feel it's because neither one of those things are inherently made to be harmonic. I feel we're all due for something that helps us feel a little bit more at ease and this creative space. And that's where we get into the galactic calendar with me, you know, taking the notion of time equaling art, we can go into this artistic expression of, you know, an artist, you know, in whatever modality.
Herald Aho Now [00:25:34]:
Oftentimes we look at all kinds of things as items that we can use in our art. I was looking at junk that was at my mom's house. She went. She goes to the local church and picks up, you know, food from the food pantry and whatnot. They had a bunch of pool noodles that had styrofoam spray on them, and they painted them these really bright colors. I don't know what they were for, but they were some type of decoration. And they threw them in the back of my mom's truck without telling her. And so she has these random trash things now at her home that she can't do nothing with.
Herald Aho Now [00:26:14]:
But I'm looking at them like, I think I can use that. Like, that's art. It's ugly, but I think I can use it for, you know, for my next event. And we're always looking at how to take the world around us and turn it into art. I think we'd have a much more beautiful world if we can look at things in that way and not be stuck on, oh, the deadlines this day. Oh, I didn't, you know, this art cost this much money to make, or I got to make this much money from my art. I think humans would be in a better space if we didn't have to worry about time or money, and we can just be creative.
Vision Battlesword [00:26:47]:
Yeah, well, we're gonna get to time is art, and we're gonna get to the galactic calendar for sure. And before we do, I just want to explore a little bit about perception of time. I assume that you have had you, Herald. I know for a fact you have. But anyway, I assume that you have had some sort of an experience of a non ordinary reality, an altered state of consciousness, a different perception, perhaps, of time. Would you say. Would you say that's true?
Herald Aho Now [00:27:22]:
Absolutely.
Vision Battlesword [00:27:23]:
What do you think that's about? Of course I have as well. And many, many people, I would say probably everyone, to some degree or other, has noticed that sometimes. So interesting how we talk about things. Sometimes time seems to go faster or slower or more things seem to happen in a specific measure of time than others. Sometimes we. Time flies literally, and we don't even remember, like, hours are gone. What even happened in those hours. Other times, like, let's say in a dream, we go back to sleep at 04:36 a.m.
Vision Battlesword [00:28:04]:
and live an entire lifetime and then wake up again at 439. What is that all about, in your opinion?
Herald Aho Now [00:28:14]:
That's the natural human essence. I think this is where we may get into that point of, like, what is time? You know, what is measuring things, you know, in that fashion. And, you know, I know I I've done this often where I, you know, I get up and I speak every once in a while about these different things, about community activism and stuff. So I've gone to my daughter's school and had talks and. And I've got up at different festivals and had workshops. And a lot of times when I get into this space of wanting to get this information that's true to my heart, it's something that comes from the center of me, and we get into this space, I call it no time. I'll look up. And I wonder, too, because often I've made YouTube videos and tiktoks where I feel like I'm rambling, and I take up, like, 30 minutes, and I'm like, why did that take so long? Like, I didn't realize I was talking so long.
Herald Aho Now [00:29:08]:
But when I go in front of real people and have an audience, I can do the same thing. And it takes me five minutes to get the same information out. And I look at time and I'm like, Amber, how am I good on my time? And she's like, that only took five minutes. You've got plenty of time right now. And, you know, we got these other instances where people are involved in some type of an accident, whether it's a car accident or whatever it is. You know, that moment of adrenaline kind of slows time down, where this millisecond of an instance of or an experience can seem like it takes forever. And, you know, that's here in the real world. What is that about? Does our actual FPS or frames per second with our consciousness? Can it be dilated? Can it be sped up and slowed down? You know, like a hummingbird or fly sees, like, someone swiping at them or whatever, and it takes, like, whoa, I can move quick.
Herald Aho Now [00:30:13]:
They have this different set of time parameters that allows them to, you know, move extra fast. And so what is a fly's experience of time? They're here in the same world as we are.
Vision Battlesword [00:30:26]:
Yeah, you're kind of describing, like, bullet time. Yeah, in the matrix movies, right, where.
Herald Aho Now [00:30:32]:
Yeah, yeah, exactly.
Vision Battlesword [00:30:33]:
Neo can go. Neo can go into that. They refer to it as bullet time, where suddenly he's faster, they're slower. One way or another, their perceptions of time or their experiences of time are now happening at completely different rates, frame rates, as you put it.
Herald Aho Now [00:30:52]:
I think that's how, that's what happens when you find yourself on, you know, when you put yourself in some type of harmonic expression, your soul or your experience and your perception of it can be more malleable.
Vision Battlesword [00:31:07]:
Right. I think that's what's happening. You know, I mean, or at least that's the theory that I have applied to my own experiences of non ordinary states of reality, where it seems like hours of experience have occurred. And yet if I look at a clock, only minutes have passed, or the. Or the opposite. You know, it seems. It seems like, you know, only minutes have passed, and yet I look at the clock and it's been hours, that it seems to me that there's something really core about the experience of the perception of time that has to do with density of information, density of experience. In other words, just like what you said, am I recording at 15 frames per second or 60? That that creates a perception of time expansion, dilation, or contraction.
Herald Aho Now [00:32:02]:
I feel that. I see. It's our ability to have a capacity for light quotient. I mean, everything that we're looking out, unless the room's completely dark, you can't even see your hand in front of your face, has some type of light reflecting off of it, and light equals information. So if we have some type of heavy experience that has a lot of information that's about to be engulfed by the being. Let's. Let's take a car accident, for instance, where someone can, you know, they compress the time, and they saw the car sliding up to them, and it was like slow motion and the, you know, just like the movies. And they.
Herald Aho Now [00:32:49]:
They experience that. When they're done with that experience, their humanness is about to take on a whole new set of parameters or information, whether they've got a, you know, their cars totaled or they are in the hospital now, and now they got to deal with family and their herd and recovery. Like all that is information. Those are all data points that are about to be introduced into that human's experience. So maybe they needed to slow things down at that particular junction in order for this information, which is very dense, to kind of get into the body or the experience that's going to have a longer play out time.
Vision Battlesword [00:33:38]:
So now I'm super curious to investigate if there's ever been. If there's ever been any exploration of time through the lens of information theory, because I've been a kind of a hobbyist, an enthusiast. Well, all types of philosophies and things, but information theory in particular, I got really into 1015 years ago and really shaped my ideas of how the universe works and our experience and everything. But I do not remember this particular concept of sort of the dimension of time, the experience of time being directly related to the density of information. That's really interesting, because if we go back to the Einstein model, time is merely a dimension of a fabric of geometry. But I think it's really interesting to think of, to flip that on its head and to look at things through the lens of information theory and think of information compared to entropy patterns in information. Right? If we take a string of bits, ones and zeros, the entropy of that string of bits, the information it contains, is correlated to the randomness, the repeatability, or the compressibility of that string of information. Meaning, to the extent that that.
Vision Battlesword [00:35:10]:
To the extent that those ones and zeros are unpredictable, I can't compress it, which means it's going to take up more space somewhere on my hard drive in some sort of physical representation of that information versus if there's lots and lots of zeros all strung together, or lots and lots of ones. Or if it's an obviously repeating pattern of ones and zeros over and over again, I can compress that down to a smaller size. It'd be interesting to do a little bit of an analysis or an exploration around whether our experience of time. Which, again, another piece of this is fascinating to me in this moment, is that it's so tied to our memory, even in the analogy that we were just talking about, about recording, as in like a movie frames per second. Well, that implies that it's going to be. It has to be recorded somewhere and then played back. And that kind of is how we experience it, isn't it? Like when we're not living in the present moment, what we're doing is we're actually replaying whatever is the experience that has already just been recorded in our memory. And then when we play that back, we look at that and we say, wow, there's not a lot of information there.
Vision Battlesword [00:36:28]:
It felt like only three minutes passed, but it was 3 hours. But I think the closer we get to that present moment awareness, it's like expanding our filter. It's like opening up our aperture wider and wider so more information can come in. Which is why we get to those ever greater densities of experience. Which means we're recording more information about whatever we're taking in as we traverse this continuum that we call time.
Herald Aho Now [00:36:59]:
Absolutely. It's like your hard drive. Like, how much information are you at? Are you at a terabyte? Two terabytes? Or you gigabyte. Like, how much light quotient or information have you had prepped your software hardware up to take in? And then that might tell you how fast or slow that information may come in. Like, I know I can sit and absorb a lot of information when it's something that I love or that I'm interested in. I can sit there for, again, seeming like hours, but I can probably absorb a ton of information in like 30 minutes. And I've done this often where I'm like looking up waterways and dams and our aquifer system and all these different things that would play a part into our whole planet mechanics. And I look up and I'm like, wow, dude, I just learned a lot.
Herald Aho Now [00:37:53]:
And it's only been ten minutes. How did I just go from website to website? To article, read it all, absorb it all and take it in. I have a theory, and, you know, this is something that we don't hear about in this day and age now. But I remember growing up like in the eighties and nineties, there were talks about spontaneous human combustion. Do you remember hearing about that?
Vision Battlesword [00:38:19]:
Oh, yeah.
Herald Aho Now [00:38:20]:
I have a theory that I'm wondering, was someone sitting in meditation or there, it's almost like they blew a fuse. Like there was too much information that came in to and the body was not able to handle it. And the fuse just went, I mean, because why would that even happen? But if we're looking at the way that electrical devices and copper wires and you need a thicker one to transfer x amount of data and the one, you know, fuses, if it's too light of a fuse, you can blow it out quickly. And some things are set up with these very light fuses because it's saving another part of the system to not be overwhelmed that may be a little bit more important for that person to be living. And so this is where I think some of the. How much the being is able to take in a light quotient, a quotient of, like, information would maybe this would, I don't know, this would be a good thing to find out. If there's any, like research institutes or anybody that's played with this type of, you know, thinking and sat people down and tried to investigate this, there's got to be something out there that I can go to and find. And this is where I sometimes, as I get into these things, these ideas, and then I go out and I look and I will find what I'm looking for and I'll bring data back.
Herald Aho Now [00:39:54]:
And then, you know, this is kind of how I like to operate, is investigating these things. And because I do investigating a lot is this, you know, maybe that helps my light quotient and would like to research myself and look at other experiences to find out did time speed up, slow down, or did it stay the same?
Vision Battlesword [00:40:15]:
Well, I think at the very least, we've, for the two of us, at least, I think we've pointed ourselves in a direction of some very, very interesting curiosity and exploration. And if, if there's not something out there that's truly studying time in this particular way from the perspective of information than there should be. And so hopefully we can be an inspiration for someone in that regard. But let's just say, are you willing to go along with me for a ride here now that we're, I'd say we're at about the halfway point, which is perfect. Will you go with me on the ride of saying, all right, as a working definition of time? For the purposes of the rest of our dialogue here, time is actually we're going to set aside the Einstein concept of time as geometry, and instead we're going to suppose that time is actually a measure of density of information. And I what controls our perspective of time is actually the aperture that we choose to open wider or narrower to the experience that we are having throughout this multidimensional reality. And the filters that we put on that, the pattern recognition, let's say that we put over our aperture, our aperture of experience, to say, okay, all of that looks about the same. I'm not going to take that stuff in over and over and over again.
Vision Battlesword [00:41:47]:
I'm only going to take in the new information, and that controls our frame rate. When we take those filters off, we get more information that increases the density of what we're storing in our memory of experience. And also when we open that aperture wider to different senses, to an even wider perspective, to become more and more into the real time, present moment, as opposed to, let's say, just replaying our virtual reality internally and not taking in new information. That's what we mean by time. And so in that context, what does it mean to say time is art?
Herald Aho Now [00:42:32]:
So with that context, I would say, you know, again, like going back to what I said about artists being able to look around at the resources around them and be able to take those, you know, random things in and create art with it, that would be akin to taking off these filters and opening, opening up that aperture to truly see and pay attention to the world around you, to see the bliss and the beauty of things that you can create with it.
Vision Battlesword [00:43:09]:
Mm hmm.
Herald Aho Now [00:43:09]:
And then that should. And then if you. I think if you do that, you know, from my own personal experience, I see time kind of slows down or just honestly doesn't really play a factor in what I'm doing and why I'm doing it. I'm able to look around at things and take it in more. More of this light quotient and turn it into art without worrying about deadlines or timelines, where now me inherently is operating in this natural circadian rhythm of, you know, how things. How nature likes to flow naturally. I mean, it's always going through a death and a rebirth process. And so I think if I can, you know, operate in that way, then time starts to look a lot different in the way it expresses itself.
Vision Battlesword [00:44:02]:
Yeah, I agree. Well, I mean, this conversation has been so interesting to me so far. Because in the context of the galactic calendar, which is the first time that I ever encountered that phrase, time is art, which is powerful. It's a powerful disrupt. It's a powerful pattern disrupter. If you're going through your life thinking that time is money, time is valuable, time is scarce, whatever those programs are. And all of a sudden, you encounter something like, time is art, it's a pattern disrupt. But for me, it didn't make sense.
Vision Battlesword [00:44:38]:
And now, as we're talking, it is starting to. Because if I'm thinking about time as this stream of information that's coming in through my aperture, my lens, my assemblage point, pick your cosmology. But if I'm thinking of it as this stream of information, I can also think of it as, like. You keep using the word light quotient. Is that right?
Herald Aho Now [00:45:06]:
Yes.
Vision Battlesword [00:45:07]:
So a very dry, sterile way of thinking of information is like bits, like ones and zeros. But what if we imagine and visualize that stream of information as, like, this beautiful stream of light, every possible color in the spectrum that we're aware of. And then an infinite number of colors above and below that, all intertwined in this incredible complexity of swirls and whirls and vortices and geometries and music and thoughts and all sorts of surreal imaginations. That are everything that we can embody and entertain with our limited human conceptions. And well, well beyond that, again, into an infinite spectrum of all possible information. Streaming toward us at any given time. So it's almost like this multidimensional, multifaceted everything under the sun and everything in the rainbow and well beyond paint. And our opportunity is to select from all of the stream of that paint, of experience.
Vision Battlesword [00:46:24]:
As it comes in toward our personal canvas. What would we like to hit? To hit our canvas? And where and how, as we, let's say, open and close the different parts of our aperture. To let a little bit of this in and a little bit of that in. And maybe a whole lot of this other piece over here that's like, whoa, what even is that? And then how we turn and rotate ourselves to allow this to kind of wash over us and to create that specific, unique art piece that is our experience of this life. Moving through that ever present stream of information and experience. What do you think about that?
Herald Aho Now [00:47:05]:
I think that's spot on. That's more or less what I feel with this is just giving ourselves all the different palettes, all the different hues. To pick the pieces that resonate with what we're trying to create. Like that beautiful art piece that we're wanting to create. If you knew you had access to all the colors ever more and, you know, your palette is endless, well, you're gonna feel pretty powerful, and, like, you might be able to create the art piece that you're trying to create, and which, in a sense, is you. We are that piece of art, whether you're a dancer or an art, a painter or poetry or you just walk around with a big old smile on your face because you feel so, you know, wonderful because you have access to all this. These, you know, these hues of colors and modalities and ways of creating you as the living art piece. You know, this is, I think, more or less the goal for a soul is to have the freedom of expression without being able, judged and having access to all the materials that are desired by the soul to become the art in its living expression in whatever that may be.
Vision Battlesword [00:48:22]:
Awesome. How does structuring our time, which we now can, we're now sort of, like, building up this composite definition, which includes that, like, we're basically made of time in the same way that we're made of space, right. It's just. It's another layer of that composite that we like, the material that we sculpt our art piece out of, including our physical form. And now also this informational component that we've discussed. So how does structuring that with something like a calendar, a galactic calendar, for example, how does that help us? How does that provide us with a tool to craft our art piece? And also, as a follow up, you can just roll right into what is the galactic calendar?
Herald Aho Now [00:49:15]:
Okay, so one of the main things that we see in this gregorian calendar is it's a linear. And it's laid out like a string that goes out. And if you look at it, it's going to go all the way down into the distance to, you can't see it anymore. So for an experiencer of that type of time, if something comes and goes, the soul is going to feel like they missed the boat. It's not coming back again. And, you know, you've missed that palette, that hue of information. It'll never be again. So you met, you messed up, and you moved on.
Herald Aho Now [00:49:50]:
With the galactic calendar, it's cyclical. It's cycles within larger cycles, larger cycles and larger cycles. And when you can look into the way the mayan calendar and the Tolkien, which are parts of the galactic calendar, because basically, what the galactic calendar is, a few different harmonic modalities that are all spirals and dynamics of evolution. As we roll through these different small, medium, larger, and larger cycles, there's combinations that are had that will come back around. It's a spiral that you're not going to miss the boat forevermore. You may just have a new combination of data sets that come in between the different spiral dynamics. The small, the medium, and the large. As they intersect, they create a new combination of, you know, an experience or that data set that you're able to go out and grab those palettes and those hues of colors to create the art that you are.
Herald Aho Now [00:51:03]:
And so this cyclical calendar leaves someone ready to keep looking. And I don't want to say keep looking forward, because when you really get into operating as an art piece, then time kind of is not so much of a thing that you have to keep track of. And I think that's inherently where we're going. And that's what I feel this galactic calendar does. It puts you into that space of not having to look forward or back to reanalyze yourself to see if you're doing right. You are just perpetually in this motion of co creating and creating and taking in all this information to create that next step of yourself and that evolution of yourself. And, you know, it reaches a pinnacle, and then you find a new, larger cycle that comes, and you're like, oh, I get to grow again. And then a larger cycle comes in, like, I get to grow again.
Herald Aho Now [00:51:57]:
And I think that would really put people into a state of being that is more conducive for their evolution. When they can realize that they haven't missed the boat, that they weren't too late, and they didn't do the right thing and start feeling guilty about the moves they didn't make, you know, for this particular date, they missed the timeline. We can sit here. That's what I've been doing, because I've been using this galactic calendar for a couple years now, and I don't use it solely. I do still look at the gregorian calendar, but I do a lot of cross referencing to see if the things that I have planned out of are in accordance with, you know, this galactic calendar and portal dates and tones and glyphs and things that make sense for me and what I'm trying to do. And I often find myself in the position that is more in tune with the galactic calendar and this cyclical type of energy that I didn't miss the boat, those two solar eclipses that came through Texas, I had a lot of stuff planned to help the whole world, and the big plans and things that I wanted to do did not happen. But I did assess the situation as we went through that experience of those two solar eclipses that came across America. And it looks like some of those patterns that were within that system are still making themselves present in my future and with what I'm doing now.
Herald Aho Now [00:53:29]:
And it looks like some of those plans that I had with the solar eclipses are now really big opportunities that are coming forth again. And it looks like, oh, wow, I actually do get to do the project that was near and dear to my heart to. I could still do that now, and so I didn't miss the boat. I'm actually more in tune with larger cycles within this galactic calendar that would assist more of a collective project to do what I wanted to do, this worldwide art piece of bringing humanity into harmonic balance.
Vision Battlesword [00:54:08]:
Why is it called the galactic calendar?
Herald Aho Now [00:54:12]:
So it actually started out as the dream spell calendar. This calendar system was. I don't know if it was. They call it a channeling or a download, but a guy by the name of Jose Arguez got information or whatever he took from the world around him. He started looking at multiple systems, like the mayan calendar, the Tolkien, the I Ching, and then chakra system, and took all those different modalities, and he blended them together to create this again, what he called the dream spell calendar. And then, I don't know at what time people started calling it the galactic calendar, but I really like that. I like both names, but I think it was an attempt to get away from that, the dream spell, because people that were following the mayan calendar, that are really into that, they knew. They know about the dream spell calendar and how it adopted some of the mayan calendar systems, but not all of it.
Herald Aho Now [00:55:16]:
And so there's. I think that was just an attempt to kind of get away from the word dream spell, because people were like, oh, that dream spell count. That's the fake one. Who, someone downloaded it or channeled it in 1987, and that's not real. He's. He was on, you know, psychedelics and who. You interest a guy on psychedelics or something? I'm like, okay, hold on. Like, this thing's working for me.
Herald Aho Now [00:55:39]:
Like, you know, when I got into it, it came to me in the most auspicious, magical ways. I was literally in a place called Miracle Springs Ranch in Utopia, Texas. In the cosmic x marks the spot for the two solar eclipses that came in October last year and then April this year. And so I, you know, take all those cosmic alignments and this information that came in, I can't deny that within the art piece of myself, you know, that I'm trying to create. And so galactic, to me, takes us off planet. It takes us into natural harmonics of the universe. And I think that's the magic that a lot of people are missing because we're so wrapped up in this. Time equals money.
Herald Aho Now [00:56:31]:
We're here in the 3d world. We're working. I ain't got time for this. I come home and I just want to shut everything off except for the tv. I want to zone out. And they don't even know that they're this cosmic being. Having a human experience.
Vision Battlesword [00:56:47]:
Is calling it the galactic calendar, meant to imply that this is a calendar that is used elsewhere, not just on planet Earth, or is.
Herald Aho Now [00:56:59]:
I don't think so. I think, again, it was just an attempt to get away from the word dream spell calendar.
Vision Battlesword [00:57:06]:
Well, what does dream spell mean?
Herald Aho Now [00:57:09]:
I didn't look up the definition of why Jose Aruguas named it that. But again, you know, like I did earlier, I take what words, what information comes in, and I take it through me. So dream spell, to me, is our collective dream, like we are. I mean, words are spells. Dreams can be prophetic. They can, you know, affect the physical world, the waking world, in so many different ways, whether it's just, aha, moments from the dream. And now, you know, like, my sister messaged me this morning because we're. She was also close to my friend that that passed away from the drug overdose, and she woke up from a dream where he was in it and a couple other friends were in it, and she expressed how, you know, he was sorry in the dream.
Herald Aho Now [00:58:04]:
And so now she has, you know, some kind of data set that is going to interact with her waking life. And so dream spell to me is, you know, we're each weaving our dreams, our dreams of having. Living in a harmonic world where we get to express ourselves freely and not have to worry about a job and money and food and security and electric, you know, energy and all these things. So that would be the dream, and then to the spell, to me, would be to decree it into your world and be a walking, living example of what that may represent to you as you evolve through it. But, yeah, galactic is taking us off this planet, and the dream spell is dreaming on the planet.
Vision Battlesword [00:58:50]:
Okay, so let's get into the structure of the dream spell calendar or the galactic calendar. It seems to me it's based on cycles of 13, and there's some number of, as you put it, glyphs and tones. Those are collected into what kin are they referred to or tribes.
Herald Aho Now [00:59:13]:
Yeah. And I can do the basic, because, again, like, for me, I'm not like, you called me an expert. Personally, I wouldn't call me an expert other than I definitely know a lot more than other people about this. And so in that sense, I can be called that. But this calendar system is comprised of multiple cycles. So there's a cycle of seven. With the seven chakra system, there is a cycle of ten there. It's all fractals.
Herald Aho Now [00:59:45]:
So there's 1020, 30, 40, 50. Right. Fractals of each other. And then there's seven and 14 and, you know, 21, and then there's fractals of the 13. And so there's a lot of different number systems within this that do those small, medium, and larger cycles of cycling through. So when you're looking and what I recommend for people to do to just get started with looking into this galactic dream spell calendar system is to convert or find their personal galactic signature by typing in your birth date. And what you'll see is a tone and a glyph. The glyph is going to be this cool little, you know, art piece.
Herald Aho Now [01:00:38]:
Some of them look funny, and that would be the first and the last words of your galactic signature. So, me personally, I am blue cosmic night. So my tribe is blue night. My tone is cosmic. So there are 20 tribes, and there are 13 tones. And so each of these have, like. I mean, it's just so crazy how it works, but it's literally a combination of. Of experiences or information sets, like, so, for instance, as we go through and cycle through each of the 20 glyphs or tribes, you.
Herald Aho Now [01:01:28]:
It would go out 20 and then another set of 20. But within that, you have only a cycle of 13 tones. And in the calendar system, you'll start at the tone, one, two, three, all the way to 13, and you're still in the tribes, and you'll start the tones over. So these are these combinations of information that create different experiences. And then when you start to look at the months, those are also arranged in the same type of fashion, and then you look at the years, and it's the same thing, but it's just combinations of experiences, tones with glyphs. And so when I'm traversing the galactic calendar and looking at what that day is, I could look at the tone and see the information there, and I can stick with that only. Or I can look at the glyph and say, oh, wow, it's my tribe day, my glyph day. These are my.
Herald Aho Now [01:02:29]:
This is my tribe. That's not the tone for today, but my glyph is there. My tribe is there. So now let me look into the tone and see how that adds to the mix. And there's colors. There's red, white, yellow, and blue. And those four colors cycle themselves, too. You know, red, yellow, white, blue.
Herald Aho Now [01:02:49]:
Red, yellow, white, blue, red, yellow, white, blue. So it's just fascinating, so many little nuances to it. I mean, imagine if our gregorian calendar had so many nuances. The nuance to that is like, oh, is it Easter, or is it, you know, St. Patrick's Day or whatnot? Those tie us down to this worldly experience, and these. This galactic calendar really allows you to dive into tones, colors, intentions, chakras. So it's just fascinating.
Vision Battlesword [01:03:21]:
This is the piece that, I think, to a lot of people, sort of looks like a more complicated version of astrology. Like, it's like you said, there's, what, 20 tribes, four colors, eleven tones. And then they get mixed and matched. They go around and around in a spiral well, they go around and around in a spiral of 1313 days, and then they also go in some sort of really complicated, to me, anyway, geometry that I can't even. It's hard for me to even describe. It's some sort of a grid of.
Herald Aho Now [01:04:01]:
Mm hmm. Does it. The one that you're talking about, that looks like. It looks almost like a butterfly.
Vision Battlesword [01:04:08]:
Yeah, yeah, right. There's a. There's a rectangular grid of days looping on a 13 day cycle, but where certain days are highlighted for their significance, I guess they're referred to as portals, different kinds of portals. So, I guess. Okay, so I'll just share with you. You shared your. Your galactic signature. I'll share.
Vision Battlesword [01:04:35]:
I'll share with. I'll share mine.
Herald Aho Now [01:04:36]:
Yes.
Vision Battlesword [01:04:37]:
My galactic signature is yellow spectral seed, and the affirmation for that is I dissolve in order to target releasing awareness, I seal the input of flowering with the spectral tone of liberation. I am guided by my own power doubled. So this affirmation comes from the combination of my tribe, my color, and my tone, where the spectral tone has to do with dissolving and liberation. I think of that spectral as, like, ghostly in that form, like, not so much spectral as in the spectrum of light, but spectral as in, like a specter or a spirit. Right. And then the yellow seed tribe has a lot to do with planting, growing, harvesting, nurturing, etcetera. And then, for some reason, my guide is myself. That just probably has something to do with the unique day of the year that that lands on.
Vision Battlesword [01:05:51]:
And then I also have other glyphs and tribes which sort of surround mine. I have an analog and antipode and an occult, as well as my guides. So all of this kind of, like, to most people, I think would look like, oh, okay, this is like saying I'm a Virgo, but way more complex. And yet it's supposed to. It's supposed to say things about me. It's supposed to describe features of my personality, my experience, my gifts, my challenges, all of that sort of stuff. You'd mentioned a couple of times during the conversation that this system, the galactic calendar, has been working for you. It works for you.
Vision Battlesword [01:06:36]:
It's helped you. And I've heard that from other people in our community as well. I personally have dabbled with it, but I would not say that I've used it because I have not really known how one uses it except as a kind of a daily astrology sort of thing. It did kind of. I mean, there's apps that you can get for your phone or websites that you can go to that give you a sort of a statement, an affirmation for this day, and then you can kind of see how that interacts with your. The combination of your. Your tribe and your tone.
Herald Aho Now [01:07:09]:
Oh, the galactic signature.
Vision Battlesword [01:07:10]:
Your signature. Right. So you can kind of see how, like, today's galactic signature has something to do with your galactic signature, kind of in an astrology sort of way, like a daily, you know, kind of a daily guide for life or something. How do you use it?
Herald Aho Now [01:07:23]:
So, the way that I like to use it is. Well, the first thing that I started doing was when. When I started getting into it, where it started making more sense for me. I started looking and typing in dates from my past experiences and looking at what was some of this calendar system saying then, that I now have a perspective on looking back. So, like, I know exactly when we conceived Violet ray. We kind of even almost know, like, the time and everything. And that day was a. What they call a gap day or galactic activation portal day.
Herald Aho Now [01:08:07]:
This will go into what you were looking at, that butterfly looking thing on the part of the calendar system that's called the Tolkien. And in that you'll see those, whether they're colored in or they're green or whatever it is, but it looks like a little like a butterfly. Essentially, what that is, that's the stitching of time. That's what binds time together. It's called the galactic butterfly. Or it's also called the hunab ku. And the hunab kuh collect connects you to the galactic central sun. So the way that I like to do it is I'll go back into these different experiences, and I'll kind of look at, you know, that would be one thing.
Herald Aho Now [01:08:47]:
Was it a gap day? Usually I get discouraged if it wasn't, because it is more than not. But if it's not a gap day, then I would look at the tones, and the tone seven, for me, is part of something that is a big. I don't want to call it a red flag, but it's a flashing light to me when I see the 7th tone.
Vision Battlesword [01:09:12]:
What's tone seven?
Herald Aho Now [01:09:13]:
That's the resonant tone.
Vision Battlesword [01:09:14]:
Okay.
Herald Aho Now [01:09:15]:
And San Antonio is the 7th largest city in the nation where I live. And so I've affectionately called, before I even learned this, I was calling it the 7th tone. And then Angel Robinson, her next Solarpunk summit is called resonance, which is resonant resonance. There were things that were tying even when. So when that other thing that you were saying, the. It's called the kin or your oracle, and it's the. The OTher GAlacTIC signatures that were around you upside down below on your. Your Birthday.
Herald Aho Now [01:09:54]:
So, basically, it's the. The person that complements you. There's the person that is your challenge. There is your guide above you, and then the one below you. I forget what they call it, but it's the one that's there to, like, elevate you to another level. And so I've kind of picked out who the people are that represent those galactic signatures that are in my life. For the most part, my sister is my challenge. I've had people that when I, on my old TikTok account, I would be talking about this stuff, and then someone would find my video and say, oh, my God.
Herald Aho Now [01:10:35]:
Da da da da da. And then I look up their galactic signature, and it's for that day, and they're my compliment, and they're, like, showering me with all these literal compliments, and I'm looking at it like, holy smacks. You're literally playing out what this galactic calendar system is hinting to, because I know there's so much more, deeper parts to it. So I don't like to get lost in the thing. But the easiest way I've been able to help people is by converting dates and looking at. And this is actually a modality that I'm. That I'm leaning into. And I call it a living life review.
Herald Aho Now [01:11:17]:
And so I use galactic calendar, I use human design, I use the solar paths, the solar eclipse paths, and a lot of other things. But the main thing is your galactic signature, your human design, and then your astro cartography as well. But when you go back in your own living experience, whether it's a beautiful moment, aha moment, or a depressing moment, you lost someone or, you know, you got kicked out of the house at 17 on this date, you can go back in time, convert dates, look at how the planets and the stars were aligned to, you know, what I'm seeing is that there is a correlation with the planets and the stars and all of that, and how they crosshair into where I am and when I am and my intentions and all that with time and space itself, and this is the galactic calendar has helped me see this cosmic undertone of information. And so that's how I like to start off with it. And then I'll also, you know, again, look forward into dates, but that's a little bit more predictive. And sometimes you get your head wrapped in things that you're looking for, things that aren't necessarily there. Or if I were to see, like, oh, coming up in this near future, I've got the resonant tone is going to be that day or whatnot. And I wind up not even doing that day.
Herald Aho Now [01:12:48]:
It doesn't feel like that. But then I look back and I'm like, oh, but my person that is in my orc or my kin came to me that day, and we talked about this, that or the other. And so there's a lot of, you know, different parts to this that you can dive into. But I think the easiest way to get started would be discovering your own galactic signature, looking at the main parts, which is colors, glyphs, tones, and then your oracle, who was around you and maybe start to find out the people around you just to get a. That's why I remember yours, Amber's yellow sun. You know, I know some of the other people in my life, but I've got actually, I want to update everybody in my phone to have their galactic signature and their human design. So I'm like, I know who I'm talking to. That's kind of how I like to use it, is just to go back in time and just dive into more of myself and the people around me and the place that I'm in.
Vision Battlesword [01:13:51]:
Okay, so looking at the galactic signature for those dates where really significant, important events happen for you in your life, gives you insight, gives you further insight into the meaning of those events in the context of the art piece of your life and of yourself.
Herald Aho Now [01:14:09]:
And because some of these experiences, I didn't know about this, right. So I was literally running on, you know, whatever guidance that was gut inst, you know, gut instinct or whatnot, or intuition. And we wind up doing things that we don't know why. Like, experiences happen, like, you don't know why. But when you go back, there's things that your higher self, your guide, whatever it is, will blast out at you, and there should be something that starts to show you this reason why that happened at that particular time.
Vision Battlesword [01:14:51]:
What is astral cartography?
Herald Aho Now [01:14:54]:
Astro cartography is taking your astrology, the place and the time you were born, and kind of mapping out across the globe different themes. So the way, when you look at it, it's almost like this slightly curved kind of a line that comes out from where you were born. And one of those lines may have a theme of business and success, and then another line may have a theme of family challenges, and then another line will have a theme of, like, your love life. And so when you combine that with the time and intentions and all the other stuff, then you can also see, like, oh, wow, I was. When I traveled, I took this vacation to Barbados or whatnot, which has this theme of love. I found my partner, and then, you know, things like that. So there's ways of looking at your astro cartography, and that would put you on a geospatial map, and then you use the other ones to convert and look at, like, intention and the time.
Vision Battlesword [01:16:04]:
Hmm. Are there specific resources that you have found particularly useful for yourself in terms of learning about the galactic calendar in particular? Is there a specific app or is there a specific website?
Herald Aho Now [01:16:20]:
Multiple? Yeah, I do. I have some that I recommend that I use for the galactic calendar. I recommend. It's synchronario. S I n c r o n. Ario centronario 1320 for the galactic calendar, and then the neutrino app, which is spelled n e u t r I n o. Design. Neutrino design app for your human design.
Herald Aho Now [01:16:48]:
And quite honestly, I'm going to be, you know, transparent here. I'm. I don't use astro cartography that much. I don't have an app that I look at. I know that it's something that I am desiring and being guided to look more into. I have, like, I know how to read the map and the chart system for that, but I haven't really dove into it, but I do recommend it. My guides are saying that, but I will be transparent, say it's not something that I'm really, really adept with and that I use on the regular, but I know it's part of this process because it is the geospatial mapping. So those two systems to convert and then the astro cartography, take your pick, you can go look it up because those are more fixed situations.
Herald Aho Now [01:17:34]:
The galactic calendar stuff is going to maneuver when you look and convert dates, so you'll have to type those in. Same thing with the human design, but these are separate apps that you need to go to. And I'm in the works and I'm mapping, a mind mapping, and I've got a team around me that we're just looking for the resources of the finances so I can pay some of our community to start building an app that has all of these charts and maps and all these modalities in one place for someone to go do this living life review. And we want to make it easy to have it where you're not traversing all these different apps, because there's just so many other things to do in life. If you just had something that you can type in easily or take a glance at, we want to build that and it'll be really cool. I've got a lot of great ideas for what that app is going to look like. If you can imagine a spiritual ready player one. Oh, my gosh.
Herald Aho Now [01:18:41]:
That's going to be freaking amazing because we're going to gamify it. We're going to add so many different ways to entertain you while you are discovering more about yourself. But do it in a way that doesn't keep you stuck in another box and another app so that that's something in the works right now that people can, if they want to follow along and be on the beta list or the app waitlist, you can sign up on my website and we'll do a 21 day check it out and give us some feedback so we can make it ready for the rest of the world.
Vision Battlesword [01:19:20]:
Cool. I'll be happy to put your website in the notes. And I want to come back to the galactic calendar real quick. What is the day out of time?
Herald Aho Now [01:19:31]:
The day out of time is a celebration of. I mean, just art. It's not work. It's not, you know, cooking and cleaning and stuff like that is strictly dedicated to art because it is the day in between the two calendar systems, so, or the two years. So you have. The galactic calendar is a 364 day calendar, and the Mayans would celebrate in the middle of summer. This time between time. And it was a time just to come together and see each other and dance and play and.
Herald Aho Now [01:20:08]:
And just be. Without worrying about what is the glyph for today? What is the tone? What is it? It's like, don't even worry about time this day, we're just going to be. And that is what it is in celebration for. And that keeps us, you know, it's kind of like this thing that binds the two time calendars together, like, from one year to the next. It's bound by the heart, right? Like art and expression and free, you know, no judgment and all that. That. That's something to me, that actually is a frequency of the heart. It's not intention, it's not.
Herald Aho Now [01:20:49]:
I mean, it's just. It's just being. And that's what that day is. It's a. It's a reference to just being human.
Vision Battlesword [01:20:59]:
Do you have any plans for the day out of time this year?
Herald Aho Now [01:21:02]:
This year? Yes, we are. So this will be the third annual mayan dead of time celebration in San Antonio. Ever since I discovered these things, I was guided into throwing and hosting our own event here in San Antonio, and I'm really working to keep it in San Antonio. It's a little difficult, but we have a space that we have picked out, and it is available for us. It's the Shriners auditorium here in town, and we're putting a, you know, an evening of art, dance, music, play, ciphers, and just being. And we will have vendors. So some of the people will be working because we're just, you know, we're make. We're maneuvering through there.
Herald Aho Now [01:21:48]:
We got to show more people. Like, this is a thing, but eventually, I would not want to have even vendors, maybe just so everybody can come and play, but. Right, yeah, that's something that we put on, and hopefully we'll be able to do it every year. But because it is in the middle of summer and safety is always paramount for me and the people that come to any of my events, if I don't raise the money to hold it in an air conditioned place, I will forfeit the event and. And not put people outside. So, you know, we are currently looking for some sponsorships and some donations to help us secure the location. And I think I got a phone call earlier that I'll be connecting with someone in a little bit, and they're ready to donate and sponsor some money so we can get it. But, yeah, that's what we'll be doing this year.
Vision Battlesword [01:22:42]:
Super cool. Well, I thought the one that was held outdoors two years ago was fantastic, and I'm certainly looking forward to the one this year. And if there's anything you like, any collaboration you want on that, please let me know. I thought that was a really super fun event, and I love just the whole idea of that. Celebrating a day out of time like a true holiday, you know, like a proper holiday, like this. This day doesn't even exist. That's how much fun, that's how much of a holiday we're taking right now.
Herald Aho Now [01:23:12]:
Exactly.
Vision Battlesword [01:23:12]:
I think that's great. And promoting and just raising awareness of the whole idea of the galactic calendar and the philosophy of time is art and all these different things. I think it's super cool. So I'd love to be involved. Yeah, absolutely. What is your biggest curiosity with regard.
Herald Aho Now [01:23:31]:
To time, if it exists outside of this place? I think right now, like, you asked that question early on and I don't have an answer. So I like to be coherent and know things. And that's one of the things that I can say for a fact I don't know. And there's a lot of talk on what is time and this and that. And we've gone back and forth a little bit and it's explained a little bit more to me, which shows it's not necessarily, it maybe doesn't have to be like a measurement system, but an operation system. And so it can shift and morph, and time can, you know, be one thing at one particular point in your evolution and time can be something completely different at another evolutionary point in your awareness. So that would be my. My question is just to maybe feel what that is like.
Herald Aho Now [01:24:26]:
But other than that, I'm kind of cool with just like, I'd like every day to be the day out of.
Vision Battlesword [01:24:34]:
Nice. Well, have you had a nice time?
Herald Aho Now [01:24:38]:
I have had a nice time.
Vision Battlesword [01:24:40]:
Yeah, me too. Yeah, this is. This was super cool. Very rich for me. I've got a lot to. A lot to chew on, a lot to think about here. I really, really appreciate you sharing all your wisdom and knowledge with me personally and just kind of riffing on time and, you know, kind of. I feel like we've broken a little bit of new ground, at least in my own mind.
Vision Battlesword [01:25:02]:
So thanks a lot for this conversation, Herald. It was really great talking to you. All right. You have a great rest of your day, however it is you choose to measure it, Herald.
Herald Aho Now [01:25:12]:
Absolutely. You as well.
