The Path of IX - Walking With our Shadow

by Marita One Who Catches Lightning

Ix — pronounced (eesh) — is the Mayan name for the nagual of Jaguar. The path of Ix is the sacred path of the jaguar people (my people).Interwoven teachings thousands of years old passed down to me that are here to teach you a way to walk in balance with your heart, mind and essence. Rediscovering our humanity allows us to take our place as mother earth's children and creatures. By rediscovering our creatureness we can begin to allow our imagination and wildness to transform us as we remember who we truly are. This is the Path of Ix, the path of radical self love and living a life in ceremony where we are in balance with Mother Earth.

  30. Working Within Your True Capacity

    It may sound obvious to say it, but: things. take. time. We know this, but at the same time our average attention span is now just 7-8 seconds. (Even shorter than that of a goldfish!)
