Understanding Mayan Astrology
What if your personality wasn't determined by where the planets were when you were born, but by the very nature of time itself? Mayan astrology offers a radically different way to understand yourself through the sacred patterns of time.
1. The Sacred Calendar: Your Cosmic Heartbeat
At the heart of Mayan astrology is the 260-day Sacred Calendar, known as the Tzolkin. Think of it as a cosmic heartbeat that keeps repeating, connecting human life to universal rhythms.
How It Works:
Imagine two interlocking gears - one with 13 teeth (numbers) and one with 20 teeth (day signs). As they turn together, they create 260 unique combinations before returning to the start.
The Human Connection:
The 260-day cycle mirrors the human gestation period - from conception to birth. This profound connection links each person to the cosmic rhythms from the very beginning of life.
2. Your Day Sign: Your Spiritual DNA
Your day sign (or nawal) is like your spiritual DNA - the energetic blueprint you were born with. Each of the 20 day signs carries specific qualities and energies.

Remember: Day signs embody masculine or "yang" energy. There are no "good" or "bad" signs - each carries both light and shadow aspects that contribute to your unique spiritual makeup.
3. Your Number: The Sacred Modifier
The 13 sacred numbers modify and personalize the energy of your day sign. Numbers represent feminine or "yin" energy, creating a mystical marriage with your day sign.
