The energy of the 12 can represent the entirety of life, so it may not just be a recent project or one that has been happening in the last 260 days that is coming to ripeness. Today things which may almost have been long forgotten may finally come to light. –Mark Elmy
Q’anil Glyph: The glyph represents a perforation upon the earth with the Tixjob, that is used to separate the earth to deposit the seeds and the four seeds that represent the four colors of corn and the four races of humanity: red, black, white, yellow. –Denise Barrios
Q’anil: A lush and fertile sign, Q’anil brims with the energy of positive growth and abundance. It carries the codes for all of life, nourishes perpetual regeneration, and represents the seed, corn, pride, harvest, and food.
A harmonious and cyclical day, it also symbolizes love, understanding, and realization, and embodies ancestral knowledge, universal memory and genetic wisdom. –Brigitte Rasine
Diana’s Observations:
Q’anil—nawal of the seed, productivity, and golden harvest—extends its roots today through the gathering and social essence of Power 12. Embodying the spirit of fertility and the perennial rhythm of life, Q’anil inspires the sowing and germination of intentions, plans, and harmonious renewal. Aligned with 12, its growth shines through accumulated lessons, journeys undertaken, and bonds of relationship that sprout emergence. 12 Q’anil marks a time when results multiply, and the synthesis of insight, commitment, and effort is called upon to transform vision into tangible fruition.
As the penultimate point of expansion within the wisdom-bearing No’j Trecena, 12 Q’anil alchemizes core lessons, strength of unity, and meaningful projects now revealing the fruits of what we’ve harvested and cultivated across this and past cycles. At its highest, bridging No’j’s constellation of knowledge, Q’anil’s ripening energy, and the multiplying power of 12, this day honors the convergence of thought, skill, maturation, and shared accomplishment—illuminating how collective intellect and generative effort can yield fruits in every season of life.
Traditionally, 12 Q’anil is a day to pray for well-being and seek forgiveness for the misuse of life-generating semen, symbolizing wasted energy and missed opportunities for authentic growth. This teaching reminds us not to expend our vitality on pursuits and relationships that do not nurture true development. In its challenging aspect, 12 Q’anil warns against selfishness, overindulgence, and productivity that values quantity over quality. With No’j, the day calls us to reassess our goals and strategies, invest energy wisely, and avoid decadence and distractions so our efforts lead to meaningful results.
As a symbol of regeneration and rebirth, Q’anil guides not only creation but the seeds of love and harmony we nurture. As No’j guides the enrichment of knowledge through action and noble pursuits that feed the whole of society, this day exemplifies its teaching that true wisdom sprouts when service and creativity are offered to the greater good. Let this day remind us that genuine abundance flows when what we cultivate becomes a source of renewal and beauty beyond ourselves.

The Rabbit held a complex and paradoxical position in the traditions of ancient central peoples, particularly its close association with the Moon and the cycle of fertility. In creation myths, the silhouette of the rabbit was famously thrown onto the moon’s face, dimming its light and establishing the creature as a lunar companion and symbol of humility, sacrifice, and rebirth.
Due to its prolific nature, the rabbit was a potent symbol of fertility, abundance, and growth, linked to the Earth-Mother and agricultural prosperity. However, it was most famously associated with the potent fermented drink, pulque, and was revered as one of the Four Hundred Divine Rabbits, minor deities embodying states of drunkenness, ecstasy, and excess.
One can invoke the energy of the Rabbit for a rapid burst of creativity and fertility in new projects, to cultivate vigilance against hidden threats, and to find the courage to act swiftly and fearlessly when faced with unexpected change.
Observations by Mayan Spiritual Guides:
12 Q’anil Q’anil days are nearly always favorable, they often carry a light and happy energy, and quite rightly so. They represent the ripening, the point where all the hard work comes to fruition. They are days of abundance, of light and eventually celebration too.
Today Q’anil is combined with the number 12, the energy of bundling, of gathering things together. This is certainly a day to complete any outstanding business, even if it has been waiting a long time, as it should produce beneficial and abundant results.
Perhaps it has been waiting for the sufficient life experience required to bring it to full fruition and today could be the day when it finally arrived. –Mark Elmy
12 Q’anil Our life reflects what we choose to nurture each day.
Everything we want to experience grows from who we are, because our thoughts, words, feelings, and actions shape the life we live.Nothing comes from the outside if it does not have roots within, and that is the key, recognizing that we already have everything inside us that is needed to bear fruit.
We only need to choose carefully what we want to cultivate and nurture it with attention and care. –Denise Barrios
