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.
Imox puts the mind in a receptive mode, increases spiritual strength, and manages the energies of change. It provides the power to understand nature’s messages in order to plan the next steps in one’s life.
Imox means the essence in every sense of the word. It is everything that corresponds to the left side, the subtle part of humans. It is the unusual and eccentric. We need a positive equilibrium on this day because it could lead to lunacy. –Carlos Barrios
Diana’s Observations:
Imox, spirit of water, unrest, and magic, bursts into the active, masculine, and material planes of Power 8 today. The hidden forces of Imox return, now springing their subliminal secrets into worldly matters and inspired action. 8 Imox can manifest as dynamic changes, dictated by the waters of emotions, dreams, and the subtle interconnectivity of the collective psyche.
As the Trecena of I’x carries us into the trials of her underworld, 8 Imox intensifies this journey with added sensibility and its appearance in unusual spaces. Potentially altering our course, it invites us to trust in visions, abstract symbols, and synchronicities as guiding beacons for the day.
Symbolized by the thread of time, 8 links old and new cycles, spirit and matter, helping us navigate the chaotic, thrashing waves of Imox with the knowledge, skills, and wisdom gained from previous lessons. This day calls us to honor and respect the spiritual teachings of Imox by balancing insight with practical action, so we don’t get lost in her mysteries.
The day may feel like a pressure valve of internal waters releasing, or a forceful stream of consciousness smashing through a dam, yet the energy of 8 calls us to contain these movements through thoughtful action. At its best, this day can inspire sublime works of art or breakthrough ideas, ready to be applied to professional or relational progress. It is a day when dormant senses are unveiled as a solid determination to define and fulfill a higher vision.
Practical Applications & Programming of the Day:
Auspicious for: Gratitude rituals; physical acts of gratitude; prayers for mental strength; emotional processing; dream interpretation; journaling dreams; sharing expression; launching ideas and projects; healing arts; embracing eccentricity; divination; psychic readings; visits to bodies of water; swimming; cleansing the physical and emotional body; embracing individuality; expressing intuitive insights; medical examinations; artistic pursuits; creative writing; storytelling; music production
Alligator totem is quite complex. This is because it entails a great many principals within the umbrella term of integration. Alligator navigates the waters between life and death. Alligator totem also encompasses the sharp aspects of motherhood, judgements, grief, rigidity, absorption of new experiences, opinions, and the dichotomy of pain and pleasure.
When extreme circumstances rattle us, there needs to be a period of adjustment. Integration allows one to process an intense experience through the mind, body, heart and soul until the experience is fully absorbed and filed away as a memory.
If Alligator has come to you, it is a time of finding your way through what life has chosen you to learn. You may need to adapt to hardships in new and creative ways, ask for help, or create ritual. –Bryjna Magnusson
Observations by Mayan Spiritual Guides:
8 Imox 8 Imox brings a recognition of the spirit of the times, both the things we embrace and the things we push away. They all come from the same source. It is a celebration of the dream world, the limitless potential from which we draw our creativity.
It is a day on which we give thanks for the dreams that we are able to manifest into the physical world. We also ask for guidance from the dream world for further inspiration.
It is a day when we ask for safety on our nightly journeys into the abyss, so that we can find our way back to reality again.
The energy of 8 Imox brings a day to bring wholeness to your creations or dreams. It is the day to put the final parts into the project, or to tap into collective for guidance on how to complete your project. –Mark Elmy
8 Imox Connecting to our emotions is not a weakness; it is a gift.
These thirteen days guided by I’x invite us to observe ourselves, to ask what we would do if we fully trusted in who we are. Today, the convergence of this energy with Wajxaqib’ Imox reminds us that when we allow ourselves to feel, when we can connect with what hurts us, what bothers us, what brings us joy, we open a channel to who we truly are.
The energies of this day tell us that if we trust our being, we do not need to protect ourselves from what we feel. If we listen to it, we can allow it to show us what is there, for only when we stop repressing can we find the freedom to be, to live fully, and to create magic.
Let us remember, there is no energy more powerful than that of someone who fully inhabits who they are. –Denise Barrios
