Maya numbers / Cholq'ij tones

The 13 Cholq'ij tones

These are the sacred calendar numbers that pair with the 20 nawales. Their meanings come from the same shared data used by the nawal calculator.

The number that completes the day

In the Cholq'ij, a sacred day is not only a day sign. It is a pairing of one number from 1 through 13 and one of 20 day signs. The number qualifies the day sign, giving timing, intensity, and position within the 260-day cycle.

How this site keeps the meanings aligned

The calculator already stores concise meanings for these 13 numbers. The Maya numbers data file imports that same shared TRECENA_GLOSS object instead of creating a second version. This keeps the content set and the calculator from drifting apart.

Not a Dreamspell table

These are traditional Cholq'ij coefficients. They are not the named galactic tones of the modern Dreamspell system. The distinction matters because the two systems use different vocabulary and different count anchors.

Jun

Pure, singular energy. The nawal speaks without dilution. A day of beginnings and clear intention.

2

Keb'

Important distinction

Not a Dreamspell table

This page follows the Cholq'ij tone sequence used with the nawales. It does not rename the numbers as modern Dreamspell galactic tones.
