THE ENERGY OF Aq'ab'al

Dawn.
Dusk.
Light and shadow.

Aq’ab’al lives at the edge of the day, where night ends and the first ray of light begins. It holds both sides of a coin: darkness and light, cold and heat, sunrise and sunset, two opposite energies in a single harmony.

In the K’iche’ day count, Aq’ab’al is linked to darkness and dawn, and it is a day to ask for light and for matters of the heart. Its Yucatec counterpart is Ak’b’al, the sign of night and the underworld.

PERSONALITY TRAITS

Born under Aq’ab’al, you are conceived under the sign of Tz’ikin, with B’atz’ as your destiny sign. With one foot in the past and one in the future, you are cheerful, drawn to history and young at heart. You hold a quiet power over darkness, and you are a light of hope for those near you.

POSITIVE ASPECTS

In balance, Aq’ab’al is strong in the face of adversity, honest in word and loyal in love. Calm, lively and affectionate, they are cherished by their families and find success in all they undertake.
