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.

11 Iq’ – Today’s Maya Day Sign (Ch’umil)

Nawal Iq'Iq’ represents the wind that nurtures the mind. Number 11 brings tests, mostly of a spiritual and mental order. During this day your thoughts can generate inner confusion, take things easy; worrying will consume all your energy and won’t solve any of your problems. The lessons brought today by the wind could be hard, but they can contain the messages that you need for your development at this time.

3 I’x – Today’s Maya Day Sign (Ch’umil)

Nawal I'xI’x is the feline energy of the jaguar, which possesses the power of the jungle; it is a day of high magic. Number 3 symbolizes the energy of your creative brain. Channel the energy of the Jaguar to connect with your intuition; recognize the power that dwells within you, the power of your inner magic, which can transform anything. Light a baby blue candle to connect to the creating force that lives inside you.
