E’ in K’iche’ Maya, represents the Road, the Saq’ B’e or the sacred path that we all travel on our quest for self-fulfillment and realization.
This is the path of destiny, the road we travel to develop, discover, and evolve our personal history and future imprinting; it is also the activity and movement of travel, moving us toward our horizon, our goals and aims in life.
It is the connection between people, places, dimensions, and worlds. E’ is the patron of travelers, protector of merchants, and the nawal of all roads and road guides. –Brigitte Rasine
Diana’s Observations:
E’—nawal of the sacred path—moves with the ascending, transmuting force of Power 13 today. E’ embodies the full journey: the steps behind us, the present moment, and the unfolding destination. 13 brings change, deep realization, and heightened perception. On 13 E’, potent insights may arise about our life path, trade, or vocation, inspiring us to reorient our strategies or energize our journey with decisive action toward our goals.
Culminating the battlefield lessons of the Ajpu Trecena, 13 E’ crowns its journey with a refined sense of purpose or exposes obstacles derailing our progress. Spiritually and mentally charged, 13 E’ may highlight thought patterns or inherited behaviors that impact our ability to move forward with lightness and clarity. The transformative power of 13 suggests these barriers—whether external or self-imposed—are ready to shift.
Linked to the North Star, E’ evokes a path guided by a higher, unwavering principle—like the constant celestial beacon that has long led travelers. As a metaphor, it reminds us that even when we feel we’ve strayed from our purpose, our inner star remains, always present to guide us. 13 E’ embodies both the journey and the spiritual force that keeps us aligned with our true purpose, lighting the way even in times of darkness and uncertainty.
With the spiritual essence of 13 and the conquering strength of Ajpu, this day reminds us to have faith—especially in adversity—as challenges themselves are teachers guiding our destiny. As the fulfillment of the Ajpu Trecena, 13 E’ shows us that warrior-spirited courage is the inner radiance that illuminates the path to possibilities and horizons beyond what we can imagine.

Bobcats often associated with wisdom, stealth, introspection and spiritual insight. Bobcat is seen as a creature of keen observation and discernment, constantly observing its surroundings and knowing when to act or retreat.
In broader shamanic traditions, it's considered a wise and ancient soul, often drawn to other old souls on Earth. The bobcat spirit is believed to help navigate life's complexities, especially for those who feel misunderstood due to their deep spiritual knowledge or maturity. It symbolizes the ability to move through challenges with grace, integrating life lessons along the way.
The bobcat's adaptability and connection to both the physical and spiritual realms make it a powerful guide for those seeking to balance their earthly existence with deeper spiritual understanding.
13 E’ “Where am I?” “Where am I going?” “What is my purpose?” These are three of the most important questions we can ever ask of ourselves.
With divination highlighted by the number 13, today is a day to ask these questions about your path. They may be asked in meditation, to divination devices such as Tz’ite seeds, cards or I Ching straws/coins, or guides both physical or etheric.
The next question would of course be “are you ready to hear the answer?” If you are prepared to listen, this could truly be a day of illumination.
The strength of this day lends itself to asking for divine guidance on your journeys, both your life path and your physical journeys. If you are guided by a higher force, you will never be let down, if you stay on the path you should not encounter problems.
Even if you do not have the opportunity to ask the questions of your path, keep your eyes and ears open today. Be aware of what is going on around you, you may get some clues as to which direction to take, which journey will benefit you the most.–Mark Elmy
13 E’ Taking a step into the unknown is not always comfortable, but staying in the familiar may limit what we are here to manifest.
Today we reach the last day of this Ajpu trecena, which throughout its journey has reminded us of the importance of having courage and certainty to be and to do, to shine with all our light. Now that its energy influences that of Oxlajuj E, which speaks to us of manifestation and our walk in this existence, we are taught that energy moves when we take firm steps towards our dreams and purposes.
The energetic confluence of this day invites us to walk with firmness and courage towards our destiny and reminds us that, although sometimes taking the first step or daring to change can be scary, standing still in a place that does not make us feel happy is not a good idea either. Today the day invites us to glimpse our destiny, choose our path, and move forward with certainty towards it. –Denise Barrios
