Trecena Prayer from Don Pedro Ixchop

Ajaw B’itol Tz’aqol I ask you to grant me the gift of clairvoyance during every day of my life. Just like the Sun rose under the sky, it rose over the face of the Earth, and in the same way I ask you, Ajaw, that I find clarity in my thoughts, in my heart, in  my feet and in my hands. I ask you that your clarity comes upon my family, upon my daughters and my sons. I ask you to always light them with your divine clarity. My wish Ajaw is that any disputes or trials are rejected and removed from my home, from my path and from my mission. Don’t allow Ajaw that any turbulence or scandal may ever enter my home. Maltiox, maltiox, maltiox and four times maltiox.
