Imox Glyph: This glyph signifies a glass of water. The top part is the mouth where it is filled up, and the vertical lines represent its roundness. Imox also represents the rain. –Carlos Barrios
Imox: Associated with powerful psychic forces, Imox represents what is often called the “left side of reality”–those other dimensions, worlds, levels of existence that are unusual, eccentric, or in general deemed outside of what is “normal”.
Accordingly, Imox symbolizes not only the receptivity to communication with or messages from these other realities and the ability to see into other worlds, but also madness, insanity, mental disorder, nervousness, uncertainty, and doubt. Imox is a difficult day sign, for these things are not simple to navigate or understand; in fact, they can be altogether frightening. Yet Imox also signifies cooperation, especially in terms of the left arm working in concert with the right. –Brigitte Rasine
Diana’s Observations:
Today, Imox—nawal of sensibility, subtle currents, and abstraction—creates through the diligent, steady hand of Power 5. Imox embodies dreams, sudden change, and supernatural gifts, orchestrating creative insights while revealing hidden powers. Its psychic essence is brought into form and order by the dutiful energy of 5. On 5 Imox, potent waves of vision and inspiration activate, inviting us to channel them into practical expression and realization.
As an aperture to the unknown within the wisdom-bearing Trecena of No’j, 5 Imox links us to the unconventional, our latent powers, and unique individuality within the realms of vocation and work. This day calls us to disrupt stagnation in our routines, encouraging creative problem-solving and the exploration of new mental or physical pathways to refine our methods. Paradoxically, this energy asks for both deep receptivity and decisive action—moving not solely by personal will, but as an awakened dream guided by unseen currents of magic and spirit.
Mental powers, governed by the overarching theme of No’j and the currents of Imox, can easily overflow into tides of overthinking and confusion without a vessel for practical application. In its shadow aspect, destabilization may arise if thought lacks clear direction, as if the mind were adrift in swirling pools, unanchored and lost in restless waters. Yet, 5 Imox offers an auspicious opening: to clarify muddied streams through therapy or meaningful dialogue, gradually transforming confusion into understanding, healing, and balance.
Ultimately, guided by No’j, this day reminds us that when disorder and chaos are cleared from the mind, the light of intelligence and wisdom can emerge. The power of 5 invites us to translate what we’ve learned into tangible action, affirming that steady practice cultivates mastery. Today, the cleansing currents of Imox flow through our consciousness, helping us resolve and create with calm, clarity, and focus. When the inner seas are tranquil and clear, we’re empowered to trust both intellect and instinct—allowing insight to become wisdom in action.

The Crocodile’s significance is foundational, representing the earth itself and the primordial waters from which the world emerged.
Across Mesoamerican cosmology the crocodile embodies creation, power, and the duality of water and earth. Its habitat—the murky, liminal space between the land and the water—makes it a powerful symbol of the threshold between different realms.
The crocodile’s powerful jaw and silent, watchful nature are symbols of primal force and unwavering strength. It is a representation of the Earth Lord and a protector of both the physical world and the sacred underworld. The crocodile’s scales are also a metaphor for the rugged, fertile landscape of the earth.
The Crocodile spirit animal can be invoked when one needs to anchor themselves during a time of great change or to tap into their primal, creative energy. It is also called upon for its wisdom in being patient and waiting for the right moment to act, as it is a master of still, focused power.
Observations by Mayan Spiritual Guides:
5 Imox Sometimes the dreamworld may be difficult to navigate. Illusions turn our perception upside down, time seems to run differently and events occur very differently to our expectations.
For these reasons, Imox is sometimes seen as the nawal of craziness. This world is the one which joins us all together, the collective, where all inspiration and nurture comes from. It is the unseen feeling between all of us, the unspoken words that we hear. It is the pool to which we are all connected.
The number 5 can represent obstructions and blockages. When this is applied to our connection to the group consciousness, it could result in isolation. More effort than usual may be required to understand what is going on around you, where events may seem more alien than usual. You may have a feeling that you have moved into a alternate reality, where events in society do not seem to make sense. On the positive side, it is an ideal day for introspection, to embrace your individuality and put some hard work into manifesting your own dreams.
Spending some time by water may help to enhance this effect. –Mark Elmy
5 Imox Imox is the essence of our consciousness, it is magic and wisdom fused, its energy opens the space for us to connect with our inner knowledge and power, it is that force that allows us to break with the structures of the material world in order to access the magical-energetic world.
Imox is the spirit of water, this Ch’umil provides us with the strength and purity of this element. Its teaching is that of having an openness to the unknown, as Imox guides us in the activation of our dormant senses, it is the one who helps us to flow, to have the determination not to remain stagnant, and to reach a higher level of development that allows us to walk more intuitive paths.
The number Job’ (5) brings the energy of action, its power elevates us and allows us to attract everything we need for life.Let us remember that those who transform their mind into the tool that creates a reality that comes from the heart, those who dare to do things differently, are the ones who can change the world.
Let us use today the power that Job’ Imox gives us to transform our reality, to transform the reality of the world in which we live. –Denise Barrios
