I’x: Feline and feminine in nature, I’x represents innate intuition, curiosity, and the creative forces of the universe; in fact, this is the day sign that grants the spiritual and psychological strength to reach the highest levels of consciousness, which underpins mysticism and divination. –Brigitte Rasine
Diana’s Observations:
I’x embodies the essence of the woman, the jaguar, and the profound connection to the Earth’s creative and fertile energies. She instinctively perceives the underworld, the unknown, and the subtle realms that lie beneath the surface layers of visible reality. For this reason, I’x days are revered as periods of mystical power and high magic.
Today, this potent energy merges with the dynamic force of 11, highlighting the significance of carefully sorting through potential chaos and navigating unpredictability. This synergy guides us in transforming discord into self-awareness through challenges that can enhance and cultivate our inner strengths.
Changes, lessons, and insights nurture our inner world, allowing us to nurture life outwardly. Within the Trecena of K’at—symbolizing social bonds, entanglements, and collective harvests—today reminds us to first disentangle our inner knots in order to infuse our growth, networks, and collaborations with greater clarity and efficiency.
11 I’x connects us to our intuitive and physical sensitivity amidst dynamic changes and shifting circumstances in our awareness. This day may present tests designed to teach us how we manifest our reality through thoughts, words, instincts, and impulses.
The potential difficulties and dispersive qualities brought by the unpredictable nature of 11 can be tempered by grounding ourselves with the Earth. A nature walk, for instance, allows us to feel and absorb the vital strength of our Mother planet, just as exploring medicinal herbs can deepen our connection to our body’s wisdom.
It is a day to heed inner cues, tapping into our inner medicine, and utilizing its wisdom to infuse order and clarity into our relationships and projects. Just as the jaguar fiercely protects its cub and territory, we too can evaluate and safeguard our inner landscapes to ensure harmony and stability in our creations and relationships.
Traditionally, this day is auspicious for setting intentions around strength, resilience, and vigor—especially when faced with sudden changes. It is an opportunity to confront negative energies within our field and cultivate self-empowerment to navigate our choices with higher discernment and intuition.
Observations by Mayan Spiritual Guides:
11 I’x
“Be careful what you wish for” on this day. Ix, the energy of manifestation from the Earth, meets the strong and directionless number 11.
As I have been considering what to write today, one strong image has come into my head repeatedly. It is the scene from the Sorcerer’s Apprentice, where the apprentice uses his abilities to animate the brushes, mops and sponges, then loses control. This image sums up one possibility of the energy today, unintentional manifestation.It is possibly more important than normal today to stay focused, and have an idea about where you are going with what you are creating. The power of the number 11 is strong, and if harnessed can be very useful.
However, truly working with it will require discipline and attention to detail. The Earth is listening, ready to provide us with what we ask of her, and today what we ask for may come a little quicker than expected. This is also a day to remember to thank her for all that she has provided to us, the things which seem disconnected from each other. –Mark Elmy
11 I’x
I’x is the high magic that emerges when we believe in ourselves, when we are connected to the whole, aware of the energy that surrounds us and of our inner being.This day invites us to work with our limitations in order to awaken all that wonderful innate power we hold within, to dare to question the way in which we have learned to see reality, to trust our inner guidance and wisdom, to be aware of the situations that have come to our path so that we can listen to their messages, so that we can see what it is that they want to show us.
Today Julajuj I’x invites us to connect in order to be able to perceive that we have a much greater potential than we imagine. –Denise Barrios
Jaguar Spirit Animal:
“Sorcerer”, “Priest”, “Vision Quests or Transformation.”
Jaguar teaches you how to discover your hidden inner strength while encouraging you to embrace change without fear.
Jaguar is a gatekeeper to the mystical and ways of awakening your soul to its real purpose and power. You will feel Jaguar on the edge of your awareness before an actual encounter in your meditations or dreams. Jaguar Spirit Animal takes you on a journey to the underworld where the secrets to self, and all of creation awaits.
Patience is another gift from Jaguar Spirit Animal. There is a time to move, and a time to wait and breathe. Breathing centers you while waiting conserves your energy.
When working on honing your awareness of subtle energy and vibrations, talk to your Jaguar Power Animal for guidance. This creature takes in every subtle nuance of the earth, even the tiniest scent on a spring breeze. You can’t ask for a better Teacher.
Jaguar helps you remain conscious of how you use your resources, so you are ready to pounce when the time comes. -Bernadette King
In what ways can I meet today’s challenges with a heightened awareness of the subtle messages they’re revealing? How can I cultivate a deeper understanding of the lessons hidden within unpredictabilities and changes?
