No'j — the mind

No'j in K'iche' · Kab'an in Yucatec · Earth seal in the Dreamspell

the mind·creativity·good counsel

You were born on the day of thought. No'j means idea and knowledge, and it is the day of wisdom and creativity, gifts that, for the ajq'ijab', belong to Ajaw, the Creator. In Momostenango, the words of the day are to think and to resolve, and also to worry. No'j is also the movement of the earth, the tremor that reshapes the landscape overnight. Your head works that way: when an idea stirs in you, something around you shifts.

The strength of No'j

Your strength is finding the way out. People born on No'j think by inventing, which is why in Momostenango they say such a person makes an excellent daykeeper. You have a lively, practical mind, you look ahead and you often have a talent for more than one thing. The car breaks down on the road and you are already working out what you can tie together with whatever is in the boot. Where others see a wall, you begin to see the plan for a door.

What the Chart tells you about No'j

The reading of No'j continues in the Complete Maya Chart: the shadow, how you deal with people, work and money, what you came to do, your Maya Cross (the four nawales that walk with you), your year and your personal calendar — written for your date.

The 13 tones of No'j

Each day of the Tzolk'in joins one of the 13 tones to one of the 20 nawales — 260 combinations in all. The tone says how No'j shows itself in whoever is born that day.

1 No'j — Jun. With tone 1, the one that opens the count, No'j arrives in you as a seed: the firmness to take the first step.
2 No'j — Keb'. With tone 2, the number of the pair, No'j arrives doubled in you, and you understand both sides of everything.
3 No'j — Oxib'. With tone 3, the one of the three hearthstones, No'j asks you for a steady home to give all it can.
4 No'j — Kajib'. With tone 4, the one of the four corners, No'j arrives whole in you, with resources and balance.
5 No'j — Job'. With tone 5, the number of the hand, No'j arrives in you in a hurry to act, with busy hands.
6 No'j — Waqib'. With tone 6, No'j leans on you through what is concrete: family, work, friends.
7 No'j — Wuqub'. With tone 7, the middle of the road, No'j gives you the view from above, the one that sees every side.
8 No'j — Wajxaqib'. With tone 8, the one that joins the beginning and the end, No'j arrives in you with the whole day and night.
9 No'j — B'elejeb'. With tone 9, the number of the life that takes shape, No'j arrives in you with the gift of nurturing and caring.
10 No'j — Lajuj. With tone 10, the one of both hands, No'j gives more in you when you do things together.
11 No'j — Julajuj. With tone 11, No'j arrives in you with a lot to give and a course that is won by climbing the mountain.
12 No'j — Kab'lajuj. With tone 12, No'j arrives mature in you, with the voice of someone who has taken stock.
13 No'j — Oxlajuj. With tone 13, the one of the thirteen skies, No'j comes to you with great force, which asks for a careful hand.
