Confidence.

Ajpuu couldn't get more loaded up and the Chol qu'ij more advanced, more on key, on point, than it is today. We are at the middle of the chart if we start from Jun B'aatz and at the end if we start with Jun Imox. Whatever our placement, today is is key, and these 20 days in which we are on the 10th are the most intense part of the whole 260 day cycle. I say this from experience, not so much reading about it.

Writers say with confidence that today is an excellent and maybe the best day to carry out any summoning, and I would agree by looking at the divination, the nawal speaks to me the same. The challenge is then, what will you summon, and the question that will arise: are you sure you want that?

Taking a look at the scale of time, the period we are going through as humanity, from the eyes of the Oxlajuj Ajpuu nawal, I see with confidence that our crying for help is a necessary prayer, and that we direct those prayers in the belief that there is some greater power than us. That belief will remain and no empirical knowledge can disprove it. We wisely reach the limit on how much we can expect from ourselves and beyond we ask that we get some help from the divine. We just need to figure what to call this divine being.

In this name figuring lies the importance of liberation and decolonization. If we can connect to a true source of the divine, we will speak the language and know the name. If we continue with our imposed beliefs and languages, then we will summon the wrong divine, the Ak Yah Toh, the master that has taken all of us to this precipice so far, and that disguises by the names of many known entities that are commonly summoned.

Back to ourselves and our inner sun, our inner development, today's nawal speaks on behalf of the greatest challenge we will always be facing: believing in ourselves, trusting ourselves. There are two sides of this, and Ajpuu natives may very well know this. On one side we must be humble enough to realize that we don't know everything and that we don't have all the power, that we do rely on an external presence. On the other hand our success, our passing the spiritual tests laid by this external presence, is fully on us, and requires that we do things right. To do so, we must gather all the knowledge and wisdom we have, even if we know it's not complete, and with this awareness embark on the act with confidence, as if we are the masters, because we are, we are the masters of our lives.

Hope.

As we embody the completion of the cosmos today, that external warmth we know exists may still remain veiled behind the clouds of time, reminding us that our moment to shine lies just ahead. Thus, we are entrusted with the seed of hope. The tree has brought its cycle of growth to full fruit, producing a seed—a concentrated intent placed with absolute trust into a vessel capable of recreating the entire process on its own. The tree cannot guarantee that its seed will survive. Through diverse and ingenious dispersal mechanisms, it simply trusts that its future will extend into the next generation. In that same quiet hope, the surrounding species wait for those seeds to strike root and grow into majestic trees for the flourishing of the entire web of life.

Many of us may still find ourselves moving through shadow, shrouded by clouds, or navigating toward a bright destination not yet reached. We have relied on the external manifestation of what we know in our bones: that everything moves in cycles, that we are never truly abandoned, and that a divine grace exists. This higher will does not dictate every footstep, yet we have all witnessed those moments when it lays down a bridge where there was only a void—a grace without which we could not have arrived here. If the outer sun is not shining for you today, know that it is your turn to become the sun and illuminate the way for others. The sun is far more than its physical burning. Beyond what science can measure, the divine spirit it embodies is easily obscured by heavy clouds or a prolonged night.

You cannot passively rely on external light; it demands that you invest a profound measure of hope. Like a seed, you must endure the journey, the drought, and the cold darkness of being buried until the conditions are right to sprout. In times of darkness, we are called to embody the very light we miss. That is the ultimate spiritual initiation requested of us today.

The Sun / The Solar Lord / The Great Warrior / Completion & Sovereignty (Ajpu) represents the triumphant solar hero, the spiritual warrior, the blowgunner who overcomes the trials of Xibalba, and the ultimate illumination of human consciousness. It is the nawal of absolute sovereignty, mastery over shadow, certainty, divine grace, and the full realization of the cosmic plan. In its thirteenth position (Ox'lajuj), it carries the highest frequency of the wave—thirteen being the number of complete ascension, ancestral integration, cosmic portal, and the final synthesis of the entire 13-day trecena.

To embody Thirteen Ajpu is to stand as the living Sun at the culmination of the cycle. It demands that we step into full spiritual authority, not because external conditions are perfect, but because we have integrated the lessons of the dark soil, the cutting blade, and the purifying storm. At this grand climax of the wave, Ajpu crowns the journey with unwavering faith and regal composure. It reminds us that the solar warrior does not wait for permission to shine; we become the unshakeable center of warmth, holding the vision of the new world for the collective until the dawn breaks.
