This revitalized system dates back to ♀March 11, 2022. While planning our week ahead, we (Marcelo and Bryan) asked each other how we could better continue the momentum of our ideas.  Writing out possible solutions, a question arose: 
“Where do the names of the days of the week come from?”

​

We laughed at never having been taught this. We then learned how the names are derived from their association to
the classical planets; The Sun, the Moon, Mars, Mercury, Jupiter, Venus, and Saturn.

​

In English the names come from Norse mythology but in Latin the planetary associations remain.

​

We studied the origin of the 7-day cycle and the development of our modern calendars. 
(Such as the Gregorian calendar we use today). 

 

The history of modern man begins with the history of the study of the stars.
When people began to study the lunar phases, follow the seasons, and observe and record the stars,

they were rewarded with guidance on managing their lives and their crops. Ancient civilizations are rooted to their Calendars - which served as the framework for learning and organization. The 7-day week (1/4 of the ~28-day Moon cycle) was established first by the Sumerians who set the foundation for all subsequent empires; who iterated this unifying calendar system.

 

These Calendar systems imbued with story and myth brought wisdom and order to the collective.
The cycles of nature themselves teach the need for rest, renewal, and aligned action.

 

However, the systems have changed over the past thousands of years and are no longer aligned with nature.

​

We created Órbita Semanal to revitalize our modern calendar.

ÓS is a system of journaling in alignment with the cycles of nature.

​

Through ÓS we implement the symbolism of The Planets, the Lunar phases, the Zodiac , and the seasons into our lives.
We use Journaling as the foundation for this integration of information.

Additionally, ÓS provides a framework for better directing our energy.

 

This work is very spiritual and personal for us: our intention being to help others better develop their internal and external relationships: We teach others how to use this system to help us make better decisions, learn in new and innovative ways,

and to align through each season of life.
 

Journaling in alignment with the week, month and years has greatly aided us.

​​

This creative practice of mindful observation, which began with our curiosity, is now our path to wisdom.

This revitalized system have connected us more deeply with our intuition and helped us better express ourselves.

We use this site to continue to iterate and expand this work with you.

ÓS encourages clarity and discerned action. 

The story continues daily.
