The Cholq’ij Calendar is a powerful tool for revealing natural cycles that relate to humans. By understanding the Nawal and number (energy) of each day, we are able to harmonize our lives and activities with the natural rhythm and order, advancing our personal and collective development. This tool requires more than an intellectual understanding; we realize it’s potential in our lives as we work with the energies on a daily basis.

Thanks to Denise Barrios, we are able to make this information more accessible by publishing the Nawal and number for each day, as well as an explanation for it’s meaning. This information is also being pushed out via social media.

6 Tijax – Today’s Ch’umil

Nawal TijaxTijax represents the double-edged obsidian knife; it is a strong energy that contains both positive and negative. Today number 6 could emanate unbalanced energies. You have to be cautious with the convergence of these two energies, the knife of Tijax, if not managed properly, could be hurtful and stabbing towards those around you. Ask Aj, the Ch’umil of this trecena ―thirteen days― to provide you with the harmony and sweetness you need to manage your knife during this day.

I ask you Ajaw that during this sacred day there will only be harmony in your presence. I ask you that there will only be endless harmony and gentleness over the face of Mother Earth. That there will only be endless love in me before your presence Ajaw, Heart of the Sky and Heart of Mother Earth. Only in you, Ajaw, I find true hope and love, because you are my hope, my gentleness, my clarity, my perennial sweetness, the love that penetrates my mind. I ask that your gentleness and hope will manifest in my heart, in my whole body, because I can feel your true love for this body, because you are the universal gentleness over the face of Mother Earth. I ask that all your children may experience love, because you are the path of hope, of peace and love. I ask that all your children will have faith in one another. I ask that there will be faith in myself, in my home, in my family. I ask that the feeling of mistrust will be dispelled forever in your presence Ajaw, Heart of the Sky and Heart of Mother Earth. I ask you that when I speak your word it will bring sweetness to all your creatures, to the communities, to all who listen when I speak in the paths of your mission Ajaw, Heart of the Sky and Heart of Mother Earth. You are the one who brings the sweetness to the words for the ears of those who listen; you are the one who gives the wisdom to those who listen to your word Ajaw. I ask you that your sweet words will manifest in the hearts of my children forever and that they will bring them wisdom. Maltiox, Maltiox, Maltiox and four times Maltiox.
