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.
“Tijax is the power of directed thought and the strength of intelligence, the inner force of the planet, magma, the power of the volcano, the touchstone of sacred fire. It represents telluric power and its expression, whether in the form of tremors or earthquakes, and the energy of change or collapse. In other words, it is a good shaking–the strength or action we need in life to understand our true path.” –Carlos Barrios, Mayan Elder
