Here are the days of the Chol Q’ij mapped on to the Gregorian month of October 2021.
As the darker nights begin to arrive (in the Northern hemisphere), we are treated to a greater number of celestial events. During this time we will have the both the Draconid meteor shower on the 7th, and Orionid meteor shower, one of the most spectacular I have ever personally observed, on 21st/22nd. Unfortunately this will nearly coincide with the full moon meaning it is not likely to be a great show this time around. On October 29th Venus will be at its greatest Eastern elongation, basically meaning that it will be at its highest point in the Western sky just after sunset. From there it will be getting “lower” in the Western sky each evening until it enters its inferior conjunction phase early in the next Gregorian year
If you are the more technically minded I have also created a plugin for Google calendar which will enable you to track the days of the sacred calendar on your smartphone. In this way you can ensure that your activities are aligned to the most conducive energies! It is available for purchase here.
