Today, we receive the power and wisdom of Keb’ Kan, the serpent that represents movement and transmuting energy. It is Q’uq’umatz, the feathered serpent that rises from the earthly to ascend into the cosmic. Within the chain of creation, Kan emerges to move energy; it is the force that drives action. Its power extends from our DNA to the macrospiral of the universe. The essence of this Ch’umil lies in being the energy of evolution: it is the act of turning knowledge into wisdom, thought into reality, and ritual into magic. It embodies the capacity to transmute all energy. After the liberation brought by K’at, Kan helps us transform energies, guiding us to rise—like Q’uq’umatz—from the material to the spiritual, from the earthly to the cosmic.

This is a moment to reflect on whether we are taking action, whether we are igniting the potential within us to reach our highest expression. Let us raise our prayers, our energy, and our magic with the strength granted to us by Ajaw Kan.
En este día recibimos el poder y la sabiduría de Keb’ Kan, que es la serpiente como símbolo del movimiento y de la energía transmutadora. Es Q’uq’umatz, la serpiente emplumada que surge de lo terrenal para elevarse hacia lo cósmico. En la cadena de la creación Kan emerge para mover la energía; es quien provoca la acción. Su poder se extiende desde nuestro ADN hasta la macroespiral del universo. La esencia de este Ch’umil es ser la energía en evolución: es el acto de llevar el conocimiento a la sabiduría, el pensamiento a la realidad, el ritualismo a la magia. Es la capacidad de transmutar toda energía. Luego de alcanzar la liberación que surge de K’at, Kan es quien nos ayuda a transformar las energías, a elevarnos, como Q’uq’umatz, de lo material a lo espiritual, de lo terrenal a lo cósmico.

Hoy podemos reflexionar sobre si estamos accionando, si estamos encendiendo ese potencial de nuestro ser para alcanzar nuestra más alta expresión. Elevemos nuestro rezo, nuestra energía, nuestra magia con toda la fuerza que nos otorga Ajaw Kan.
