K’uxlajik K’aslik K’ux
(Living the fourfold sacred rhythm)
With the Mayan Sacred Calendar,
we live in alignment with Natural Law
by practicing its guidance.
“For the Maya, the power of communication is the highest differentiator between the human race and other living beings; to be eloquent in our prayers and words is therefore the greatest gift we can bestow upon one another.
This trecena [Iq’] is not the time for control or rules. It is a time of fluidity, experimentation, and open-mindedness. It’s not a coincidence that the purer your mind and spirit and the healthier your body, the more clear and powerful your ability to communicate. Be one with the Wind, and experience a different kind of freedom!”
–Brigitte Rasine
