K’uxlajik K’aslik K’ux
(Living the Four-Fold Sacred Rhythm)
With the Mayan Sacred Calendar,
we live in alignment with Natural Law
by practicing its guidance.
“Ajmaq is a favorable day to ask for and receive forgiveness, to manage harmony and discord, and to focus on the word, the message, the ancestral lines, and the energy that emanates from living bodies, called an aura. Ajmaq is the earth, the spirit of our Grandfathers. The energy of ‘Aj’ is the experience and virtue of a long walk through life. ‘Maq’ is like a curtain of smoke that hides us from the presence of Ajaw [God]. On this day, we can delve deeper into the purpose and direction of our lives.”
–Carlos Barrios, Mayan Elder
