Let us feel the beauty and love that dwell within our being, for what we are inside is reflected outward.
The wisdom of this day invites us to see our body as a temple, reminding us that we are sacred beings. B’elejb’ Aj calls us to value and accept ourselves, to treat ourselves with love and respect, and to honor the spiritual experience of living with awareness and gratitude. The Ch’umil of this trecena reminds us that it is not about resisting what we do not desire, but about directing our energy toward what we love, allowing it to grow stronger. Let us pay attention to how our energy flows, for whatever we focus on gains strength. Let our inner energy generate love and carry it to each of our experiences, always remembering that our being and our doing are sacred and worthy of honor.
Sintamos la belleza y el amor que habitan en nuestro ser; lo que somos adentro se refleja afuera.
La sabiduría que surge con este día nos invita a ver nuestro cuerpo como un templo, recordándonos que somos seres sagrados.

When we remember our place in the universe and the purpose of our existence, the path becomes clearer and lighter to walk.
Let us remember that there is always a hidden blessing in every experience we live.
Living with consciousness is also learning to be thankful for every moment.
Our thoughts and good intentions gain strength only when they are accompanied by our actions.
Nothing new can be born if we keep holding on to what has already ended.
We are all but souls exploring an unexplored world, trying to understand an unexplained existence. During these paths of learning, our surroundings and those around us have gifted us with our values, a set of rules we would need to live by. “Be kind”, they said “be brave, and always try to be the best version of yourself.” These are beautiful teachings that, unfortunately, have caused much harm.
Grandmother Water has been present since the creation of our Mother Earth, giving form to the great oceans before the emergence of volcanoes and land. Within her, she carries the wisdom and story of our whole existence, and was a vital part of it. She was there when our creators were still sowing the world, she heard the first howls and chatters of the animals entrusted with caring for the Earth, and she witnessed the first seedlings sprout, eventually growing into immense millinery trees. She has cared for us, nurtured us, and filled this planet with magnificent sights all this time.
From the moment of our creation, our life has been shaped by the mycorrhizal pathways that connect us to each other, which nourish our very essence. In this Kawoq, we want to make a space for reflection, as we question: what is our community?
