Mythology and HistoryIn book one, Ayekah The Damned, most of Ayekah and Haya's journey occurs during Maya's time. A male-dominated society when males' experience and language were deemed factual and analytical and the female's as social and emotional; the male journey as conquest and the female's reclaiming her voice, spirit, and healing.
Haya’s mentor, the Mardi– a mystical and sacred being – is significant in the entire series. Later also the Two Pastoras; two women joined back-to-back. Much of the series has some connections to holy writs, mythology, and history.
About the name Ayekah: as in Genesis 3:9. After Adam and Eve ate from the forbidden tree, God asked Adam, “where are you” which is “ayeka” in Hebrew. Also, as referred to in “watchers, holy ones,” and other writs about fallen angels, as they “fell” after they became “enamored” of human women.
In Mayan mythology, Ayekah is akin to Itzamna, an upper god and creator deity thought to reside in the sky and represented by the aged god D who married Ix Chel. Mayans became known as the naked eye astronomers because of their ability to accurately chronicle, assimilate, and compute eclipses, lunations, and rotation cycles.
About the name Haya: Haya, the virgin, is akin to Samael’s counterpart Lilith. She seduces angels and can mean; “to live” or “have life,” or “to give” or “restore life” (Genesis 25:6, Joshua 3:10), “lively” (2 Samuel 23:20), and “reviving” (Genesis 18:10, 2 Kings 4:16). Nashiym, the Lilim, seduced the watchers. Samael’s counterpart and a mother of demons is seen seducing the fallen angels as Naamah; after the fall, they had daughters: “Wholly new in the Kabbalistic concept of Lilith is her appearance as the permanent partner of Samael, queen of the realm of the forces of evil (the Sitra Ahra).”
Before Ayekah, Haya's name is Luna: Akin to Ix Chel, the divine goddess believed to have helped create the world and the Maya word for Moon. When young, Ix Chel's symbol is the waxing Moon, when old, of the waning Moon. Her powers include healing, intuitive knowledge, and the ability to control earthly forces and the sex of a fetus.
On the island, Cuzamil, known as Cozumel, is a famous temple dedicated to Ix Chel. As well as on Isla Mujeres (island of women). She might even be known as Coatlicue “once magically impregnated by a ball of feathers.” And The Miracle Mother – La Divina Pastora, Siparee/Supari Mai, the Black Madonna.
About the Maya culture, the ancient Mayans left evidence of their contact with alien visitors. Mayans were able to accurately predict shifts in the Earth’s axis every 26,000 years. Sprawling Maya network discovered under Guatemala jungle, beneath the forest canopy, revealing houses, palaces, elevated highways, and defensive fortifications.
The Maya believed that Star People or Watchers had elongated skulls, lived in sacred caves, and had rituals in bathing places, waterholes, shrines, and sinkholes Cenotes. Also found in many other scripts such as Forgotten Origin http://forgottenorigin.com/the-mayan-ancestors-angels-star-people-and-oblong-skulls.

Thank you to all who like my page and those who post messages;
One of my favorite things is research, not just because for twenty years of my life I was a Research Analyst but because since I was a child, crippled by polio, reading gave me wings. It is taking me a long time to write ELEMENTALS -The Series because although fiction it is is based on real facts. Right now I am working on finishing Book One, Ayekah the Damned that starts in prehistoric times and goes into the ancient Mayan evolution of culture that is evident in the Mayan amazing knowledge in Astronomy, Astrology Mathematics, and much more.

It does sound extremely interesting your planned (?) series The Elementals. I tend to become humble in an unpleasant Uriah Heep sort of way when I read about such success, but I am aware of myself enough I hope to keep my less attractive side under restraint. I don't know how people find the time and energy to be both creatively and techically proficient and lead normal and eventful lives. It is as though I have fewer hours than they. Anyway, is the series yet to be written? Excuse my stupidity if it is stupidity, but I could not see if the series has been published, is still to be written, in a blog or where or when Elementals will appear. The subject matter appeals to me. I am also drawn by those time-spanning myths and symbols which work underground on us today.
Thank you Yorick, I am currently on the second round of edits for book one, The Sylph's Tale, have over 40k words on book two Virgins and about 20k on ROLO and Maculatum. Would you like to be a reader before publication?
