Just love.
When we are done crying our sorrows, deceptions, the pain of a justifiable situation, our heart looks up and sees what's above it: the head. We are soothed by our parent mind telling us how things will be fine, and why things are the way they are. Our mind will tell us what we should focus our attention on the little things, the good things, the progress and the experience and strength we have harvested. In this moment, the mind is channeling the light of the ahau, of love, from the upper crown chakra. from where we are imbued with meaning: existence.
Our snakish body and soul predates on this love, naturally it seeks to grow, and many times this growth is not satisfactory. So we gulp on anxiety, pleasure, artificial excitement, and the modern world gives us plenty. This builds up and brings us to these kind of days when something we didn't take care of or that took all the abuse from our gulping finally sheds tears; divine it is that the sky also cries to bring water to the drying earth, in synchronicity with us, the time watchers.
Our head then fills with marvel, about this and many other things that magically line up. It soothes us and gives us hope that soon there will be more peace, more space, more love, more community, all that we are lacking currently. We are invited by today's nawal to percolate what real love is, what little things we have that are there that are bringing advancement. To love the little space we have, yes, we need a home for our children and grandchildren, I have cried for that, and for the millions of trees savaged in the past weeks, yet I can fill this small space I have with love and see it as my home and not my prison. This love can show me the little tree in front of my house that has grown since the older one died. Today's nawal is a great strainer that will allow us to stalk ourselves into what is divine love and what is head noise. This light allows us to see that everything in creation is imbued with the intelligence of a "creator". Not a single ant moves without divine intelligence. If you allow yourself to just see and not explain, you might reveal for yourself secrets of the cosmos.
This then reminds me strongly of what I've mentioned before: explanationism. The Mayas and all cultures fell to this anxiety and today everyone does too. The effects of the planets on certain positions are strong because we make it so, not because the planets by themselves do. We are so doomed by our quest to predict doom. The enemy of clarity is quite the bitch, we get so entangled with elaborate ways to understand and explain the cosmos, when it's really not that complex or determined. It's like when we look for ways to approach a girl or boy we really like so that it will appear natural, instead of walking up to him/her and saying plainly: "I like you". We are so programmed to be indirect, baroquely overly elaborate, that we miss the essence. Today we won't, we will get shined by the simple light of just love.

Citando a Julian Katari del 11/02/2026, 4:38 pmWhere are we going.
There may come a time when all of our needs are met, the sun is shinning and everyone around us will be happy. We will be fathers, mothers or leaders of a community and in this light of being the great father/mother we will ask our kids: where do you want to go?
In this modern world, if we gather the strength and have the persistence to go down the rabbit hole, leaving all of our past entrapment behind and reaching a state of freedom where we are no longer being held by dogmatic beliefs of domination, we will arrive at this sunny field where we can ask ourselves: where are we going?
The mind programing creates a story in our heads, and we think this is what the future holds for us. But in this path of toltequity we stalk ourselves out of deceit and so arrive to this field. We are no longer held by an illusion of a future, we no longer know what the future will be.
In the darkness of the cities, we are played the story of our held-by-the-state future, of transhumanist induced happiness, or virtual freedom. This is what the vampire goats have crafted, but they too will eventually arrive to the sunny field and figure that all of that is just nonsense, and is going nowhere. They are the ones that truly have -apparently- all their needs met and can play this card. Where are we going, where do we take humanity to now?
Let's take off any clothing of who we are and think from the mind of the Ahaw, of our human lordship. Imagine you have all the power in the world to lead everyone into whatever scenario you wish to manifest into reality. What would you create? The successful family dad chooses to take his family to travel to a new place. He asks his kids to choose the destination. That is the highest choice, going somewhere new, somewhere you haven't been to. Today's nawal wants to teach us about this power we have, to choose our destination. It might not be at your fingertips, you may still need to work decades to free yourself to get to that possibility, but you can still choose to go there.
Today's nawal also wants to speak about the poor imagination that has spread like disease in this world. Really? are those your dreams? He asks you, he asks everyone. In this powerful choice principle of the Uuk'eb Ajpuu there are two very bright and contrasting possibilities, this is probably the sign of lucifer. You can walk towards something very beautiful and loving, a place so incredible it hasn't yet existed. Or you can walk to a place so terrifying, it surprises your worse nightmares. Maybe because of this second reflection of the light, people with this nawal would rather hide in the fluff of infantile beingness and sugar coating, than to actually embrace who they are. Walking the Uuk'eb Ajpuu means embracing your power, and going towards the true light, the light of love. Holding the sword of darkness and using it with a lot of care. Taking on power is dangerous, and we are seeing the effect of what happens when those who bear it have failed to be careful with it.

Citando a Julian Katari del 29/10/2026, 1:05 pmGlade.
Inside the cave we are in, is the best place to look outside at the stars; helped by the darkness we are in, we can get a better look at the dim light there is within the given dark space. Today we enter this glade where we understand the process we are in, and that gives us the soothing that is divine, healing, and transformational. Today's nawal represents this spiritual light that descends, this sudden enlightenment, this clarity that is born out of a time of darkness that shows us why a given situation is and where we are.
We can sit under this light for as long as we want today; a meditation is called for, for we can use it to brighten and clear any dark space within our minds, anything we have wondered about or wanted more clarity on—this is the day and/or the nawal for that summoning. Even if we don't summon it, it will appear, as it is part of the process: you get to the darkest, tightest spot, right after the storm, the clouds open, and you understand why you are there and what you are after.
Again, harvesting this light can be very powerful; it will not solve anything or get you out of anything, as much as we wish this would be the case. But it will reveal where you are and how this place is necessary and cannot be avoided. If you let this light in, you can see inside your cave and understand so many things—why they are there—and understand, amongst all this understanding, that the divine light, divine power, is this at its essence: not a force that appears to solve your problems, but a light that illuminates the dark corners of them and lets you comprehend why they are there, and if you are willing to walk that way—possibly further into the cave—then you might just find—on your own—the way out.
The Blowgun Hunter / The Sun / The Sovereign / The Divine Light (Ajpu) represents the radiant light of the sun piercing through the forest canopy, the master hunter, the heroic twins of creation, spiritual clarity, sovereignty, ancestral lineage, and the illumination that exposes the truth within the darkness. It is the nawal of spiritual guides, visionary leaders, hunters of truth, and those who bring divine insight down into the human experience. In its seventh position (Wuqub'), it brings the frequency of reflection, the midpoint of the trecena, the mirror of truth, spiritual maturity, and the sacred balance between the seen and the unseen worlds.
To embody Seven Ajpu is to step out of the dense undergrowth and into the sunlit glade within the cave of your own consciousness. It demands that you stop demanding cheap rescues from the universe and instead accept the uncompromising gift of illumination. At this seventh station of the trecena of I'x—moving through the intent of One I'x, the mirror of Two Tz'ikin, the ancestral faults of Three Ajmaq, the mind of Four N'oj, the surgical cut of Five Tijax, and the hunger of Six Kawoq—Ajpu arrives as the sudden opening in the clouds. It reminds us that true divine power does not erase our struggles, but shines a brilliant, unsparing light into the dark corners of our experience so we can finally see why we are here, comprehend the necessity of our path, and find our own way out.

The Day Sign: Xochitl (Flower)
Position: 20th Day Sign of the 260-day Tonalpohualli (corresponding to Ajpu in the Maya Cholq'ij).
Codex Borgia Location: Positioned within the sacred divinatory registers of the twenty day-signs, serving as the climactic final sign that seals the entire 20-sign sequence (such as Plates 18 and 19).
Iconography: Represented by a brilliant, blooming four-petaled or multi-petaled flower (xochitl), often depicted in full bloom, dripping with sacred nectar or jewel-like water droplets, symbolizing beauty, artistic creation, ecstasy, and the fragile perfection of mortal life.
Sign Dynamics & Mechanics:
The Apex of Manifestation & Artistry: Xochitl governs plastic arts, song (cuicatl), poetry (in xochitl in cuicatl), dance, weaving, pleasure, romance, and the ultimate blooming of consciousness.
The Sacred Transience: It embodies the profound Mesoamerican philosophical concept of impermanence—that all earthly beauty and life are as fleeting and precious as a flower that blooms at dawn and fades by dusk.
2. Patron Deity of the Sign: Xochiquetzal (Precious Flower Feather / Goddess of Beauty, Love, and Art)
In the divinatory structure of the Codex Borgia (Plate 19, upper panel), the governing patron deity presiding over Xochitl (as well as Cuauhtli) is Xochiquetzal ("Precious Feather Flower" / "Flower of the Quetzal Feather").
Iconography in the Borgia Group:
Depicted as a youthful, radiantly adorned goddess wearing elaborate quetzal-feather headdresses, exquisite woven textiles, floral ornaments, and nose-crests (yacametzli). She is frequently surrounded by blooming flora, hummingbirds, butterflies, and weaving looms.
Theological Role & Cosmic Domain:
Patroness of Weavers, Artists, and Sensual Grace: Xochiquetzal is the divine embodiment of aesthetic perfection, sacred fertility, craft, romance, and artistic inspiration. She presides over the transformation of raw materials into sacred art and high culture.
The Alchemy of Blooming: As the patron of Xochitl, Xochiquetzal represents the flowering of human effort. She teaches that after passing through the underworld journey, the storm (Quiahuitl), and the cutting edge (Tecpatl), the soul reaches its full expression—a momentary, perfect bloom of divine light, art, and joy grounded in the physical world.
