- DAY OUT OF TIME - July 25, 2007 - Red Magnetic Skywalker

A day out of time? What could that possibly be?

How about no day of the month or week at all?

But, you might say, it is Wednesday and it is July 25. That's true on the Gregorian calendar, but not on the thirteen moon/28 day calendar!

How's that again?

Yes, a thirteen moon (month)/28 day calendar. It's nothing necessarily new – been around for millennia, as a matter fact. And it's come around again. It's more logical and makes more sense than the present calendar.

People all around the world want a change, and there can't be a more thorough change than changing the calendar you use to program yourself everyday. Just think about it. If you say July to someone in North America, they will think sizzling summer sun. But say July to someone in Aotearoa or southern Chile, and they will think midwinter fireplace.  That's pretty contradictory. So you see, these months and what they mean – it's all relative and highly conditioned. The same is true with the days of the week. If it is all relative and arbitrary, why not try something new?

The global climate change is upon us, and we are all changing and being changed anyway. People have been following the new 13 Moon /28 day calendar since 1993. Before that, the League of Nations wanted to give the world a more logical timing standard. It selected the 13-month 28-day calendar as the best way to do it.  That was back in the 1930s, and it had the support of the International Chamber of Commerce and entrepreneurs like Eastman Kodak. But conservative forces prevailed; the calendar didn't change nor did the world. World War II happened instead, and it's been a pretty interesting planet since then.

Beginning in 1993, the thirteen moon calendar started to make a come back, this time as a steadily growing world wide populist movement. From Australia to Austria, from Israel to Brazil, from Chile to Croatia – and in dozens of countries in between, the new calendar is spreading. And if there is one day of the year – the 13 moon year, that is – that draws all these people together it is the day out of time. Now what is that?

The thirteen moon calendar is based on 13 months of exactly 28 days each – four perfect weeks each month. Every day of the week of every month is exactly the same as every month. That makes 52 perfect weeks a year. But, as you can see, 13 x 28 or 52 x 7 equals 364. Aren't there 365 days a year? Correct. In the 13-moon calendar, that 365^th day of the year is no day of the week or month at all. It's a day out of time. In this way, the 13-month calendar remains perpetual. The days of the week and the days of the month are the same, year after year – and this is true every month of the year.

In the time of the League of Nations, that 365th day of the year was called “null day” – no day of the week nor of the month. In the new 13 moon calendar the 365^th day is more positively known as the day out of time – a day when you can experience freedom from any conditioned time conceptualizations. What do you do when you have such freedom? What is time like without culturally conditioned limitations?

In the new time of the 13 moons, time is not money, time is art. So the day out of time is the day to celebrate time is art. This is what hundreds of thousands of people who follow the new calendar do every year on Gregorian calendar, July 25 – they celebrate time is art. And since art is the basis of constructive peace, this day is also celebrated as International Peace through Culture Day. Peace through culture is a fundamental premise of the 13 moon/28-day calendar. When you celebrate time is art you are promoting peace through culture.

If you go to most any Day out of Time celebration you will see the banner of peace. The symbol on that banner signifies the unity of art, science and spirituality. Since 1935, this banner has been internationally recognized as an instrument of peace – peace through culture. As the saying has it, “Where there is peace there is culture, where there is culture there is peace.”

So, wherever the day out of time is celebrated, there is a purpose of experiencing time as art, and of promoting the constructive value of peace through culture. Of course, this can take many forms – as many forms as there are varieties of human artistic expression. Because it is peace through culture, this day is also marked by ceremonies of universal forgiveness; it's a way of starting the New Year off on a clean, compassionate footing. You make your New Year's resolution by loving and forgiving everybody before the New Year has even begun.

The New Year in the thirteen moon calendar, of course, is not the same as Gregorian New Year, January 1, but is celebrated the day after the Day out of Time, just as the Day out of time is the day after the 364^th day of the 13 moon calendar year. The thirteen moon New Year's day, Magnetic Moon 1, occurs on July 26, Gregorian. Why is that? Originally that date was correlated to the conjunction of the sun with Sirius rising. You see, the 13-moon calendar is not just a solar-lunar orbital measure, but is coded to galactic timing cycles, most notably the Sirius cycle. Through the 13-moon calendar, the human consciousness can enter into a higher frequency, a galactic consciousness frequency.

The cosmic standard of measure of this new consciousness is a moon. A moon is a measure of 28 days, the mean between the 29.5 day cycle of new moon to new moon, and the 27 day sidereal cycle, the cyclic measure of the moon appearing at the same point in the sky. This tells you that time is of the mind; all measures are measures of the mind. The 13-moon calendar is an even and harmonious standard of measure. It takes a crooked man to walk a crooked mile, but it is only a crooked measure that makes a man so. Give the human a harmonious standard of measure and then a harmonious human will walk a harmonious mile.

Harmony – that's what the day of time is all about.

Ah, yes. And then there is that Red Magnetic Skywalker, Kin 53. Remember, it's a new time. Every year the day out of time changes color – red, white, blue or yellow – and name – either Skywalker, Mirror, Night or Star – and to be any one of thirteen galactic “tones.” The first tone is the magnetic tone, and the thirteenth tone is the cosmic tone. There are 52–possibilities of combining four colors and thirteen tones. That means it takes 52 years - solar-galactic cycle - for Red Magnetic Skywalker to return again on the Day out of Time. Come on down to the celebration on the day out of time it's a rare opportunity to learn what the Red Magnetic Skywalker is all about!

Peace!
