Ajpu: This is the day to obtain certainty and security, to plan and achieve goals. It is a day of renewal, a day to ask for female fertility, to feel emotionally secure, and to sharpen the intellect. It is a day that brings the strength, courage, and energy to overcome obstacles. – Carlos Barrios
Diana’s Observations:
A warrior considers the world we live in to be a great mystery, and he knows that the mystery is there to be revealed to those who deliberately look for it.” –Carlos Castaneda
Today’s nawal of the sun warrior aims its blowgun to Power 13’s cosmic-spiritual planes. 13 Ajpu brings the Q’anil Trecena to a blooming culmination of higher awareness, with its sun shining rays of success and optimism upon us, inviting us to embrace the divinity of our present moment and move forward with confidence.
This day of the spiritual hunter embodies the essence of light, clarity, and triumphant victory. As we complete Q’anil’s cycle, 13 Ajpu calls us to seek the light of harmonious results and the understanding gained on our growth journey, and to recognize how this illumination forms a figurative armor for future battles. It marks a realization of our potential and the completion of a spiritual cycle in our lives.
13 Ajpu crowns achievement and conquest, allowing us to claim our rightful ownership of the soils, gardens, and terrains we’ve cultivated throughout the Q’anil Trecena. Representing the flower, 13 Ajpu assures that our humble seeds have reached, or can reach, their peak bloom. Ajpu reminds us that intention, talent, and strategy–when met with honesty, coherence, and consistency–will undoubtedly generate results.
Considering Ajpu’s ecliptic nature, this day can also reveal the consequences of ambitions rooted in deception or manipulation, reminding us that anything built on fear or egoism carries the seed of its own destruction. As we fulfill this regenerative cycle, the radiance of realization shines on our seeds of intention, revealing precisely how we have nourished them.

13 Ajpu: Ajpu is the blowgun hunter, it is the spiritual warrior that radiates strength and certainty, it is the energy of Father Sun.
This Ch’umil gives us the ability to be connected with everything that surrounds us in order to obtain certainty in what we do, to be fully aware of our actions, connected to the present moment. The number Oxlajuj -13- brings with it the magic that helps us create and achieve fulfillment. Today is the last day of the Q’anil trecena, which invites us to put into action everything we have sown, initiated, and developed. Oxlajuj [13] Ajpu gives us the strength and magic we need to materialize it.
The energies of the day speak to us of seeking certainty in every action, clarity in everything we undertake, taking each step with awareness, connected to the now. Let us recognize the transformation that each process we are living, or have lived, have brought us to become the being we are today. –Denise Barrios
