The day 6 Kawoq could prove to be a very beneficial day to bring the new into the world. The birth process is supported by the energies of the four directions, together with the Heart of the Sky and Heart of the Earth, bringing stability to the delivery. -Mark Elmy
Kawoq: Abundance, Family, Rain Storm, Community Work, Difficulty, Groups, Society, Universal Community Pronunciation: “Kah-wok” Sacred Animal: Turtle Energy Places: Forests, Especially Pine or Cypress Colors: Green, Blue Body Parts: Heart, Nerves
6 (Waqib'): Steady • Learning Balance • Resilience • Physical World • Body • Wholeness of Structure • Center Axis • Family • Improvement • Refinement •
Kawoq Glyph: The group of spheres represents the members of a family and a group of families that belong to a community. The crosshatching means assistance or collaboration.
Kawoq is family, meetings, group, society, community, country, and continent – anything that can be grouped.
It is a community day, generally beginning with the individual. It means group relationships and descent, the eternal return to life of future generations.
It means the strength of unity, greater consciousness, the unfolding of the cosmic plan, growth, fertility. It is the energy for abundance, in both the material and spiritual sense. It is the energy that brings good harvests.
Kawoq symbolizes the woman or the wife and the sacred spiritual staff. It is individuals seen as a unit, and the assumption of an imaginary leadership role. –Carlos Barrios
Diana’s Observations:
Today invites us to seek and cultivate new life, knowledge, wisdom, and possibilities emerging through our family, community, and group connections. This energy emphasizes the power of unification and love, which serve as frequencies that link insights and open new paths of possibility.
Today’s convergence of 6 and Kawoq teaches us about interconnectivity and the potential outcomes that arise from the blessings of working together and balancing ourselves as a social unit.
Influenced by the magic-infused I'x Trecena, we’re supported in this transformative process, harnessing vitality, wealth, and higher states of awareness, as both Kawoq and I'x embody feminine, creative, life-giving forces.
With Kawoq representing the rain, the storm and midwife, she guides us in the emergence of the “new” from both metaphorical storms and collective consciousness.
6 is the body, the structure, the family, and the world tree - the central axis in which our life revolves around and where we learn to create balance. It represents the vibration of maximum stability in all aspects of life, but above all, the vitality of the family.
According to the Mayan perspective, family stability is based on six facets: health, understanding, work, friendship, assets or possessions, and positive and negative actions. Each of these six foundations affects the others, as they are bonded and closely related. Today encourages us to harmonize these elements, drawing on Kawoq’s guidance to cultivate new possibilities and promote unity within our families and communities.
Turtle medicine guides us to nurture our emotions and relationships with tenderness, emphasizing the virtues of patience and presence that enhance our activities and connections around this central axis, cultivating the highest good for all.
When we pray for Kawoq's rains to bless our crops, we’re not just tending to our individual gardens but also nurturing the collective beauty we cultivate as a community.
Observations by Mayan Spiritual Guides:
6 Kawoq When we dedicate time to our growth, healing, and personal development, we awaken new ways to share our gifts with the world.
When we understand that we are part of a great family made up of every being with whom we coexist and that we are all one, we begin to see life from a new perspective.
We become aware that each of our actions has an impact, as we are what we give and receive what we offer to life. Recognizing ourselves as part of a whole allows us to embrace and respect each other’s journeys and to receive with gratitude the contributions everyone makes to this reality that we co-create and share.
Today, the energies remind us that the wisdom and gifts we possess are perfect for our life’s mission. Regardless of the work we do or what we dedicate ourselves to, our mission and that of every being is essential for the growth of humanity. –Denise Barrios
6 Kawoq If you need to calm your emotions, or bring healing to a situation, this could be a very good day to do it. Allow Kawoq to wash away emotions that are no longer necessary to hold on to, and allow the new to emerge into the world. Use the supportive and stable energy of the day to calm the troubled waters.
The stability of the 6 would suggest that it is a day when the storms are quelled, when the force of the torrent is sufficient to wash away the debris without destroying the useful.
It is a day when the new born receives the blessings from all around. This will apply to new life, in all its guises, and to new projects.
The energy of this day could be hugely supportive of the ideas that you brought into being on the day 4 No’j. It is a wonderful “launch day” for the physical aspect of your plan. –Mark Elmy
The turtle is a significant spirit animal in both Mayan and North American Native traditions, symbolizing Mother Earth, longevity, and protection. In Mayan culture, the turtle represents stability and the nurturing qualities of the earth, often associated with the creation myths that highlight its role in forming the land.
Turtles are seen as guardians of the earth, embodying resilience and the ability to endure life's challenges. Their hard shells symbolize perseverance, serving as a reminder of the strength found in grounding oneself and remaining connected to nature.
The turtle also embodies the qualities of patience and introspection. It teaches the importance of taking life at a slower pace, encouraging individuals to reflect on their journeys and appreciate the present moment. This slow and steady approach to life allows for deeper connections with oneself and the environment, for a sense of peace and stability.
By embodying the turtle's wisdom, one can cultivate a deeper appreciation for the journey of life and the interconnectedness of all beings.
In what ways can I utilize my unique talents and resources to uplift and empower the collectives I am a part of? How can my individual actions contribute to the greater good of the group?
