Background:

The M Song Calendar was conceived while investigating the oldest known calendar. It was carved on a whale's bone 106,000 years ago. It was crude by todays standards. It seemed to be a lunar calendar. The days in each month appeared to be of the same depth. However I submit that 10 days in each month would be gouged deeper in varying degrees. Each of the first three days would appeared to be deeper than the last. The fourth day would be deepest as would the next three days. On the seventh day it would reverse in depth mirroring the corresponding first three days. That is the clue to what kind of calendar. What seemed to be a lunar calendar is actually a menstrual cycle calendar of a woman who was regular. She kept a record of her cycle.

Then came the eureka moment. One night while imagining 13 months side by side. The four weeks lined up in a strangely familiar way. A child of the 1950s, I spent a lot of time my first seven years under a grand piano in an orchestra pit at rehersals and performances. My father, Donald Kieth m is a musician of wind instuments. He accepted the job as conductor of the Million Dollar Theater in downtown LA for seven years. And he was very proud of his first born. My early life was spent in and around sheet music. I realized the four weeks as F - A - C - E on the musical scale and the five lines that divided the weeks becomes "Every Good Boy Does Fine". Then each day of flow is rhythm and color becomes music. Each month is a measure, and 13 months is a score. Her daily flow reveals her rhythm. Her daily color combined with her rhythm reveals the song. I submit that each gouge on that ancient calendar was filled with a vegetable color and the depth was interpreted as her rhythm or sustaining notes.

The Goal:

Since the twelve month calendar was instituted five thousand years ago, by and for males, the menstrual calendar has been pushed aside and gradually ignored even by women for simple expediency. But in doing so she has given up her center and therefore her power and balance. Follow your rhythm and song with the M Song Calendar. You will find your center and therefore your power. And reveal your life's song. Now imagine what your local community must sound like. I truly believe the M Song was a tradition our ancestors practiced with great reverence. All figurines that predate 3000 BCE are exclusively female. Every women was a walking calendar. Each village would sing their scores and dance in the fields on the nights of their moon flow. She gives birth to humanity, she makes the harvest bountiful, and it is through her that we come to understand time herself. She is an extension mother earth and moon. On the on the nine months her flow is at rest, she is offering her song up to life.

The Future:

We are in preparation October 28, 2011... the end of the Mayan Calendar. On the 29th day we begin the walk through the door of the thirteenth millennium. Using the end of the last ice age, twelve thousand yeas ago, as our temporal marker. Our sisters and mothers will enter the thirteenth millennium in rhythm and in concert with each other. Each cycle introduces a brand new set of measures world wide. The earth herself needs to hear your song again.
