The energies of this day remind us that while reaching our dreams can sometimes feel scary or risky, the greatest rewards usually come from daring to walk our own path, to persevere in achieving our dreams, for life is so short that we should have the courage to take action and do the things that are born from our heart.
When we clearly define what we want to accomplish and we pursue it with all our energy by taking action, by creating, we will realize that we have an unstoppable power within us.
Hoy las energías nos recuerdan que aunque a veces alcanzar nuestros sueños nos pueda dar miedo o parecer arriesgado, las mayores recompensas suelen venir de atrevernos a transitar nuestro propio camino, de perseverar en alcanzar nuestros sueños, pues la vida es tan corta que debemos tener el valor de tomar acción y hacer las cosas que nacen de nuestro corazón.
Cuando definimos con claridad aquello que queremos alcanzar y vamos por ello usando esa energía que tenemos para accionar, para crear, veremos que tenemos en nuestro ser una fuerza imparable.
K’at symbolizes the net, it is the entanglements or difficulties that we face in life, but it is also the power that allows us to let go of our problems and find freedom. The energy of the number Keb’ holds every aspect that shapes each thing, it is the complementarity, the energies that, while seemingly opposing, are necessary to create a complete and harmonious whole.
Let us be grateful for our past as it has shaped us into the being we are today, it has led us to the place in which we are now, which is the perfect place. But let us also remember that we cannot allow the ‘negative’ things we did in the past, even the things we did a moment ago, to affect our present moment. Let us learn from our past, using it as a tool for our growth and as an inspiration for our future, but without forgetting that we are creating that future at this moment, that it is in the now that we can change everything. That the present is the moment.
Iq’ symbolizes the spirit of the wind, it is conscious breathing and the breath of life. Its power gives strength to our mind, for this element is the energy that nourishes our thoughts, that offers us new knowledge, imagination, and creativity, that gives power to our words and increases our ability to direct our thoughts, to create our own reality. Iq’ is the energy that purifies our body, mind, heart, and spirit, that brings clarity, transforms ideas, and generates change. The number Oxlajuj (13) is a force that drives us, that provides us with the potential to grow and expand in order to reach fulfillment.

Ajpu is an energy that provides us with the strength we need to overcome life’s adversities, to be resilient, and transform ourselves.

The energy of Lajuj (10) Kawoq arises to remind us that even though our evolution is an individual work, much of our growth comes from our relationships, from learning from and nurturing one another, from supporting each other along the way. Today Lajuj Kawoq teaches us the importance of being supportive to others, of giving from the heart and without judgment, but also of being open to receive help when we need it, for even though our life path is personal, we do not have to walk it alone. We are by nature community beings, let us then come together as peoples, as human beings, let us be united in our spirituality regardless of our race or creed, but through the love we have in our hearts which allows us to accept and hold one another.
We are the result of our decisions, of what we choose to let go or what we make a decision to nurture in our being. We have the choice to continue carrying pain, suffering, fears, and all those energies, feelings, and thoughts that affect our development or we can cut the unnecessary burdens to work on our healing at all levels.
No’j is knowledge, thought, and wisdom. It is the understanding we acquire from our relationship with the external world and with our inner world.

No’j encompasses the intellect, our logical thoughts, and our reason, but it also is the spiritual knowledge that enables us to develop our inner powers. No’j holds the energy that transforms knowledge and experiences into wisdom. Its essence drives our creative thinking, for this is one of the Ch’umilal that gives us the power to create our own reality. The number Wajxaqib’ (8) is an energy that connects us with the physical and material world, with our experience in this reality.
