8 B'atz'

Today our human consciousness has the opportunity for growth in creativity and community service.
The key to this growth is to look for answers in time and space.
The sign of B'atz' symbolizes cosmic phenomena and original wisdom. It also unites men and women and governs marriage. Power 8 stands for authority, ambition, and materialism. It brings excellent opportunities in the financial area. It is an auspicious day for men. 
Mayan New Year Celebration Today is the first day of the Cholq'ij Sacred Calendar. During this day the Ajq'ijab -spiritual guides- and the members of the Maya community, meet to perform a Ceremony of Gratitude to the Ajaw and to ask for blessings for this new cycle. Light 20 candles and connect through their energy with the hundreds of Sacred Fires that are lit today in all of the Sacred Maya Altars.
This is only a reference as to what day of the Cholq'ij calendar aligns with our familiar dates.
