Nawal
Nawal, one of the 20 day-signs of the Maya calendar. Each nawal carries its own energy and a hand-drawn glyph, your birth nawal describes the keynote you arrive in the world with.

The energy of the day

In the living K'iche' highland tradition, Aj is the cornstalk and the spine of life: that which lets us stand tall, proud and brave. This energy can invite you to stand up for what matters to you and to those around you, quietly and without needing the spotlight. The Five puts your sign's hand to work: its power wants to be applied.

Core message

Something in you wants to stand tall today for what matters. You do not have to be loud to be strong, and you do not have to carry everything alone for it to hold. Notice where you stand quietly for your values, and where your uprightness is already turning to rigidity.

In brief

Aj carries the energy of quiet, serving leadership, rooted in the Earth with its head in the sky. The Five puts your sign's hand to work: its power wants to be applied.
