Ajmaq — the pardon

Ajmaq in K'iche' · Kib' in Yucatec · Warrior seal in the Dreamspell

the pardon·prudence·the peace of the house

You were born on the day of fault and of pardon. The name Ajmaq comes from maq, the fault, and in Momostenango the words of the day are about asking pardon for the wrong you have done. The animal of Ajmaq is the owl, which sees in the dark. This is also the day to remember the family's dead, who go on guiding those left behind. In you, both things live side by side: the courage to look at your own mistakes and the company of those who came before.

The strength of Ajmaq

Your strength is seeing before you act. People born on Ajmaq are analytical, shrewd and reserved. You read the contract down to the last line, notice who stayed silent in the meeting and guess why. At a family lunch that isn't even yours, within half an hour you are chatting to the aunt nobody can stand. You get on with every kind of person and are welcome wherever you walk in. Like the owl, you see what sits in the dark: the hurt nobody mentioned, the mood that shifted in the room.
