3-Kame (10 March 2022): Death by confusion

Prominent persons born 3-Kame: Hugo Weaving (The Matrix), Paul McCartney, Natalie Merchant, Faye Dunaway, Kurt Waldheim, Nick Swisher, Freeman Dyson (physicist), Nick Swisher, William C. Durant (GM co-founder)

“Tell me Mr. Anderson… what good is a phone call… if you’re unable to speak?” – Hugo Weaving (3-Kame) addressing Keanu Reeves (3-Tijax) in The Martix

Kame is a nawal associated with the ancestors. Kame natives are known for their psychic connection with remote grandfathers and grandmothers. Reflecting back to 1-K’at and its ancient journey through my agricultural heritage, 3-Kame is the day I nurture my garden and give due attention to the seeds and young plants.

Working in the garden with my hands and legs, I use the same body movements my forefathers and mothers used to tend their plot of land. Although my technology is different, I use the same tools, same methods, and consider the same administrative options. I cannot escape these deep connections. I have no reason to.

This used to be called husbandry. Our home planet yearns for it; agriculturally, environmentally and in every other way. All talents and life pursuits are welcome and desperately required. This is where nawal 3 (Ox) comes into place, since it embodies undirected effort, that is usually squandered. But whatever’s wasted doesn’t matter in the grand scheme of the trecena. The few efforts that do bear fruit are worth all the rest that don’t.

My own 3-Kame constellation

The chance of meeting someone who shares your nawal is 1 in 260 (~0.004%). It is much, MUCH more likely to meet someone who shares your nominal nawal (1 in 20 = 0.05%), and slightly more likely to meet someone who shares your numeral nawal (1 in 13 = ~0.077%).

My half-brother was born 21 years after me. His nawal is 3-Kame, and we have a very close and special relationship. The very fact that we managed to maintain a good and healthy connection, through many trials and questions, and considering the fact that we’re only partially related – is an achievement in itself. And thankfully, it doesn’t look like it’s going to change.

The drummer in a big-band I play bass guitar in also has today’s nawal. He was born approximately 21 years before me, and our relationship is also very special and close. In any given modern band, it is known that the rhythm section’s chemistry (or lack thereof) is key to the band’s success (or mediocracy). Our case is no exception. Undue modesty aside, I (8-Q’anil) and the 3-Kame drummer have brought on the voltage and so-called mojo to many ensembles. Thankfully, this also doesn’t look like it’s going to change.

In my less immediate circle of people I personally know, there’s yet another 3-Kame. He’s 6 years older than me, he used to be in my sister’s class, and he’s still good friends with her. This 3-Kame I never figured out, nor been his friend, so I’ll leave him at that.

Embracing generalities, what I found distinctly in common with the former two persons, is that both my 1/2 brother and drummer friend cannot stand it when they’re chatting with me and I’m not looking them square in the eyes, close to 85% of the time. I’m not even mentioning getting distracted by my phone, or anything as obscene as that. No. If my complete attention isn’t on them for more than 5 seconds, they reconsider our very meeting.

When I meet either of them, the focus is always on conversation: serious, in-depth, intimate.

They also both abhor small talk.

… and my 1/2 brother is an amateur percussionist. I thought that the drum connection has more to do with nawal 3 than nawal Kame, but I recently learned that Kame is also a very musical nawal.

Maybe 3 is the beat and Kame is the harmony?
