Tone 4 (Stability)

 The most stable of all forms is the cube. Four is the establishment of volume by definition. The four directions give orientation to any form as the height length depth and breadth give shape to any form. The energy of four sets the parameters, which establish the freedoms and barriers needed to create a game,, a work, or a relationship. The frequency of four is capable of slowing things down enough to see the deeper meaning behind the issue.

Day Sign: Ben (east)

Key meaning: singleness of mind, integrity 

Time space traveler, messenger, courage, new directions, investigator, pillar of strength, compassion, spiritual essence of home, protector

Reed persons are the spiritual essence, protectors, and guiding light for family and home. Risk takers, poineers. Strong principles. They are competent speakers who will take up a cause. Though they love to relax and enjoy, they are capable of intense work and can be extremely disciplined. They excel at whatever they choose to do. The source of their competency is integrity and personal confidence. Strength and conviction are their core values, intellectual and/ or well-educated, and they lean toward the study of human nature. Very tough and analytical, Reeds endeavors to bring peace, harmony, and order to all their relations. Reeds are blessed with great skill at negotiations and consoling which are very often put to the test. Although Reeds needs a lot of appreciation, may have marriage or business problems because of inflexible views and high expectations, which erode affinity. The lesson for Reed is to be like a garden hose, not a steel pipe.

Symbolism

To the Maya, this day sign, Ben appears to have symbolized the development of both the maize plant and man. The word ben does not seem to refer to any particular plant or deity. Some researchers have thought that the sign probably referred to the standing com stalk- as opposed to ripe corn- or perhaps to a reed or cane. The glyph is highly stylized, though in some variants a link with vegetation appears to be present. Some people have suggested that the glyph refers to a mat made of reeds, representing a kind of weaving.

Personality

Popular, knowledgeable, accomplished, and competent. A fighter for principles, a crusader. Takes on challenges.

Challenge: To not be opinionated, to loosen up rigid attitudes

Solution: Knowledge of human nature

A good day to: bless or repair your house
