Here are the days of the Chol Q’ij mapped onto the Gregorian month of April 2025.
After the extremely active time of the last two weeks of March, April will be a relatively quiet time astronomically.
However, for those of you here in Guatemala at around 15 degrees north of the equator, the Solar Zenith transit will occur on 5 E’ (29th April 2024). It occurs twice per year, usually on or around 29th April and 12th August. This is the day when you will have no elongation of your shadow at midday. The sun will be directly overhead at solar noon and your shadow will just be a little puddle beneath you. This is an important day to make sure your corn is in the ground ready for the coming rains.
13 Iq’ / 2025 Calendar
My 2025 calendar is now available. The calendar shows the days of the Chol Q’ij, formatted onto the Gregorian calendar. Currently, it is available electronically as a PDF in both English and Spanish. Printed versions, in English, are available locally in Guatemala in San Marcos at Lava Love Cacao and Palo Santo. They are also now available in the USA through Soul Lift Cacao. See this link for details on how to get your pdf.
Google Calendar Plugin
For the more technically minded I have also created a plugin for Google Calendar. This enables 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! I have also added a description to every day, just click on the day name. It is available for purchase here.
