Tz’i Glyph: This glyph signifies the staff used by indigenous authorities, as well as a dog’s tail. It is spiritual law that cannot be bought or sold. –Carlos Barrios
Tz’i represents spiritual authorities and the straight path. It is justice and the day that brings the truth to light. Tz’i is a day to be at peace and to correct our mistakes, desires and sexual behaviors.
It is a day to avoid Wuqub’ Q'ak’ix (the Seven Sins – pride, ambition, envy, lies, crime, ingratitude, and ignorance) and to be balanced in every spiritual and material sense. –Carlos Barrios
Diana’s Observations:
Tz’i, the nawal of order, mediation, and justice, meets the testing and discerning energy of Power 11 today. Tz’i represents accuracy, loyalty, autonomy, and the contracts we make with life. 11 divides, sorts, and challenges us to bring chaos into order, testing our resolve to achieve mastery. Together, 11 Tz’i marks a day to reflect on defective attachments and patiently weigh options before taking action.
Governing both the seen and unseen, Tz’i calls us to mediate between intuitive insight and practical action, arranging instinct and foresight in important decisions. Within the warrior trials of the Ajpu Trecena, doubts faced today test mental and physical fortitude. On 11 Tz’i, we turn inward to reflect on personal authority and sovereignty—asking where we’ve surrendered our personal power and how to reclaim it with clarity and grace.
Tz’i, the loyal guide, sniffs out codependency and self-betrayal—such as weak boundaries born from emotional attachments. While dog medicine symbolizes loyalty, paired with the dividing energy of 11, it reminds us that when we say yes to others, we must not say no to ourselves. 11 Tz’i calls us to act with authenticity—aligning choices, words, and actions with our personal truth to cultivate genuine connections and clarity in our agreements.
As Ajpu guides us to purify and reclaim our inner sun, today’s medicine calls us to engage our five senses and instincts to nurture this light—upholding truth and integrity, first and foremost with ourselves. 11 Tz’i invites us to practice impeccability in our words and actions. It is a day to cultivate personal autonomy as a magical instrument directed toward truth and love.

Observations by Mayan Spiritual Guides:
11 Tz’i The energy of the nawal Tz’i is also known for its impulsive nature, particularly when it comes to matters of a more sensual nature. When this energy is combined with the equally impulsive energy of the number 11, desires and urges may be very difficult to control.
As the nawal Tz’i is also the nawal which represents our guidance, the combination with the number 11 could suggest that there may be a strong and undeniable feeling of being guided towards something. It will be important to really apply some perspective to this guidance.
The strength of the drive may be irresistible, however is it really in your long term interests? This may very well be THE day of temptations. –Mark Elmy
11 Tz’i The energetic confluence of this day speaks of the importance of respecting each person, observing without judgment, knowing that each of us is walking the path that leads to connecting with our own power and divinity, and that this path doesn’t have to be the same for everyone.
When we realize that, regardless of the path we choose to follow, there will always be moments of joy and times of deeper learning, we understand that the wisest choice is to walk the path that brings us happiness, the one where we remain true to our essence.
As we walk this path of personal fulfillment, we find it easier to connect with the love that allows us to honor each person’s power and individuality, to embrace different ways of thinking and acting, because we know that our truth is not absolute and that there is divinity in the unique way each person chooses to see and live their life. –Denise Barrios

Today was an amazing day and I would like to share a little bit here. First I want to acknowledge Dedicated Diva for her wondrous work, that has enhance my life in so many ways in such a short time. Now back to the post, today was the day that I had to take a trip to get natural spring water. I took nine, five gallon jugs with me to the spring. At the spring, things were different, there was a construction team that was on both sides of the spring. They made it where you only had one lane and they got to control the traffic flow. Normally it is peace and quiet but not this time and I was not happy about it, at all. I decided to do some Qi gong in the middle of that chaos right in front of the spring. As I started, I notice I felt better and better and then I notice that crew on the right side of the spring started leaving. This was encouraging so I kept going, at one point a truck stopped right in front of me and one of the construction workers got out two water bottles. He then addressed me Excuse me, he said. I kept doing my Qi gong. He then got louder, I kept doing my Qi gong. He then asked if was OK to fill his bottles up. I was annoyed, first I did not like his energy in the first place, the energy that like to interfere, no matter what. My response was a very strong no, that echoed. I believe it was because of the Qi gong but it surprised me. I did not want anyone getting in front of me, while I was getting water and no interruptions of the Qi Qong. I was doing something called the micro cosmic orbit, which is like connecting the heavens and the earth. I felt like I was protecting the spring, from the interfering energy that I see all the time all over in my city. What makes this a big deal to me, is yesterday evening after I finish forest bathing I encountered one of my neighbors pit bull dogs. He was loose and he came towards me barking loudly while I was in the street. Instead of running, or ignoring. I stopped and stared at him, doing my breathing that I do in the woods and as I did it, the dog retreated. It was weird to me at first but at the spring I felt the dog showed me what to do. Protect the spring and be on guard. It was cool and crazy at the same time. The animals are helping me figure out what to do, without saying any words just appearing when I need it most.
