Centuries ago, it was the first symbol of Christianity, even before the fish. The famous magic word Abracadabra comes from its name, Abraxas. The rooster crows in the morning, sensitive to the arrival of dawn, crowing when it sees sunlight, and for this reason, it is a symbol of awakened consciousness in human beings. Its two serpents represent the duality of life; they are the two natural forces that humans must master: night and day, pain and pleasure, rest and work, grief and joy, etc. Those who are disciplined wisely govern these two dual currents of life. That is why Abraxas is still, holding both limbs with his hands. Behind him are two columns, one with a sphere (spirit) and the other with a cube (matter).

The personal power of a human being depends on how well one cares for this serpent of life that is within us and that we ourselves are; all organic systems, including the heart, depend on the spinal cord.

The pictorial work accompanying this message is inspired by the vanity of the macaw, according to the Popol Vuh, the sacred book of the Mayans. The macaw, known as Vucub Caquix, would gaze at himself for a long time in the reflection of the lake (a narcissistic act), proud of his plumage, and was an enemy of the solar hero Hunahpú. Unlike the Quetzal (Kukulkan or Quetzalcoatl, the feathered serpent), which possesses the humble and uniformly green color of the forest with no desire to stand out; its red chest, a symbol of divine will, stands out prominently when it flies. The difference between the quetzal and the macaw is that the macaw accepts captivity, while the quetzal does not, as it dies if caged. Vanity leads us to inaction, to the idle contemplation of oneself in the mirror of illusion (maya, in Sanskrit Hindu), and thus we remain prisoners, while humility leads us to altruistic and elevated actions and to spiritual freedom. The painting features the colors of the macaw's plumage, and upon them is the sacred symbol of OM; signifying that even amidst the illusion of the material world, the sacred pulsates, and its mark is visible to whoever has the diligence to reflect and find it in selfless action. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA fraternal greeting to all members of this spiritual process.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Yogi Super Foods","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45987776626857,"sku":null,"price":1000.0,"currency_code":"GTQ","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0514\/6109\/5593\/files\/10.Pereza.jpg?v=1778778099"},{"product_id":"claridad","title":"Clarity","description":"\u003ch1\u003e\"Clarity\"\u003c\/h1\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eby Álvaro Morales Valdés, description:\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe painting accompanying today's reflection is titled \"Clarity.\" It features the Sephirotic tree, from Kabbalistic wisdom, representing that those who heed ancestral wisdom have clarity of destiny and identity as human beings, and understand their important role in this world.

This word comes from \"con-centro\", meaning, whoever is concentrated has a center. This is why in the painting, alongside the illuminated face of Siddhartha Gautama, there is a circle with a dot in the middle, a solar symbol of hermetic astrology. The dot in the middle is attention, from which concentration arises. Constant attention to the present gives our lives a center. It is easy to lose our center with the noise of this material world that surrounds us; distractions or pain often cause human beings to get lost; but one can live concentrated, both in peace while performing padmasana or lotus flower poses in a garden, as well as while grocery shopping or attending to our daily work. Concentration has no limits for those who develop it. Buddha's message tells us to maintain our center, not by living in attachment, but in detachment. That is why he smiles with serenity.

This consciousness never sleeps, and even in a dream state it operates. While we sleep and dream, Freud says that the most hidden instincts in our subconscious appear, but the great Stoic philosopher Marcus Aurelius already taught us that even in a nocturnal state we must remain connected to our higher consciousness so as not to succumb to lower instincts. Two snakes are in conflict, but both emerge from Abraxas's lower extremities, representing the inner moral battle that we all face daily; but it is also an \"Ouroboros,\" that is, a snake biting its own tail, representing life's dual cyclicity and its permanent connection. The levitating stones, one is a blue sapphire related to Saturn in astrology, and represents discipline and materiality. And the other stone is a red ruby, related to Apollo, that is, to the Sun. Saturn and Sun are the hermetic astrological duality (beyond Mars and Venus), because the Sun is light, and Saturn is the planet furthest from light (according to classical hermetic astrology which does not consider Neptune, Uranus, and Pluto).
