Your sun sign is Virgo. This is the sign in which the Sun is in your birth chart. Your Ascendant is in Capricorn, and your Moon is in Scorpio.

Sun in Virgo, Moon in Scorpio

You were born with the Sun in Virgo and the Moon in Scorpio, which makes you a hard- working, proud, self-assured, acute, and clever personality. You could be torn between the traits of Virgo, which have to do with practicality, industriousness, and utilitarianism, and the basic biological impulses of Scorpio, which are at times at odds with the Virgo traits. The Moon in Scorpio gives you a very strong personality that rarely accepts other people's ideas.

As a basically Virgo individual, you are happiest when your natural urges can be expressed. You love practical and productive work, however detailed it is.

Scorpio agrees with Virgo in providing a desire for research and analysis. It is very possible that you will take on professional activities that require much dedication and talent in investigation.

In sex, the Scorpio sign indicates a passionate nature with very strong and deeply rooted feelings. A misuse of these qualities could result in passions which cannot be controlled. You are also likely to be criticized for your secretiveness. In the intellectual realm your mind is acute, questioning, and penetrating. You are outspoken, strong-willed, and able to fight your own battles.

The key for a better integration of yourself lies in sublimating your lower instincts, so that they can give you the energy required to do work in research and investigation. Secondly, you should try to open the doors of your consciousness to the possibilities of working for others.


Ascendant in Capricorn, Saturn in the Seventh House

At the time of your birth the zodiacal sign of Capricorn was ascending in the horizon. Its ruler Saturn is located in the seventh house.

The sign of Capricorn denotes an existence in which temperament is very important. You will give an image of ambition, persistence, will power, consistency and perseverance. You were born with the tendencies to seek material, social, and, perhaps, even political power.

Capricorn tends to a challenging life which forces you to exert all your resources in order to triumph. Because of your tact and prudence, you will be favored with the good will of important people.

Your mind is egocentric, rational and you have a natural tendency toward scepticism. Able to work hard, you will bear obstacles and frustrations with patience.

You will proceed with prudence in your love life and in all other activities. You will seriously consider all of the ramifications of a relationship, especially the aspects of your independence, and you will not commit yourself to a partner until you are sure of your choice. After that however there is a tendency to conduct a peaceful and quiet life.

You are very economical in your daily activities, and if you do not exert some control over this trait, it could appear as rather mean.

You are best placed in governmental, municipal, political, or large business organizations where hierarchy is very exactly defined. The key word for your professional orientation is responsibility.

This position denotes a life which possesses extroverted qualities. It indicates, too, that marriage and personal associations will be the most important motivations of your existence. Saturn in this house refers to a partner who is faithful and perhaps older than you.

In your relationship you hesitate to express yourself to the fullest extent; you see it as a profound circumstance that requires responsibility and stability and, therefore, should be enduring and satisfying.

Sun in the Seventh House

The Sun was found in the seventh house at the time of your birth. Among other things, this means that your individuality is required to accomplish certain important developments in connection with associations and marriage. It appears, that you will be married to a rather proud but dignified individual, and much of all the progress that you will make in life will be a derivation of your relationship.

In any instance, you can expect throughout life the origination of lasting attachments and noble friendships.


Saturn in the Seventh House

Saturn was found in seventh house at the time of birth. In your dealings with others, you are going to present a very cautious personality and you will work slowly towards the achievement of security. The environment will be a very restricting factor in your life; the same limitations that hinder your relationships with others will emerge in a narrowness of reception to your ideas and emotions. This indicates that the key to more spiritual and material development lies in your response to the several tests destined for you which consist of patiently enduring difficulties through human relationships.

You should remember that Saturn does not lend a propensity to be demonstrative in an emotional sense. It does, in those individuals with whom you will start a lifelong relationship, give a sense of duty and stability of emotions. Yet you are going to experience some sorrow throughout your life in a relationship. This is mostly going to consist of the several limitations that this state is imposing upon your personal freedom.

The key to a better integration of your existence lies in the ability to view these obstacles and binds with philosophical resignation.


Venus in the Eighth House

Venus was found in your eighth house at the time of birth. This is a favorable position regarding the possibilities of financial gain through businesses owned by your partner or by associates.

Psychologically, you are going to find many harmonious conditions in your sexual relationships.

If your inner growth is such that your vital energies are oriented toward spiritual rather than material pleasures, then you will arrive at gratification and happiness through inquiry into the mysteries of life and death.

You should have some excellent opportunities for progress in your financial and social condition during your middle age or when you finally stabilize your life through marriage or any other type of close relationship.

Moon in the Ninth House

The Moon was found in the ninth house at the time of birth. Your higher mind has the potential to expertly reflect the teachings of elevated knowledge that you may receive throughout your life. You will have an ability to quickly adjust to varying conditions.

You are endowed with a clever and resourceful imagination, and a mind which is receptive to ideals, higher thoughts, and perhaps even metaphysical matters.

Throughout life you are going to solve many critical situations by your ingenious and highly inventive mind which has an abundance of new and humane plans and ideas.

THE ASTROLOGY OF TIME

The ancient Maya and Aztec astrologers studied the
mysterious influence of the rhythms of the sky on earthly
life. Everyone knows the Sun rises and sets every day --
this is the basic rhythm of life around which we set our
clocks and calendars. What the ancient astrologers
discovered was that other time cycles existed that were
multiples of this basic day cycle. This fact was discovered
about 100 years ago in Europe and these cycles (there are
many of them) are now called biorhythms.

The most important time cycles in ancient Mayan and
Aztec astrology are those of the day, 9-days, 13-days, and
20-days. Additionally, years are counted also, in groups of
4 and 13. Each day is then part of several other cycles, so
no two days are exactly the same. Your Maya/Aztec horoscope
below shows exactly where in each of the cycles you were
born. Each category below examines a specific cycle and a
specific aspect of your personality. Keep in mid that our
personalities are complex and contain many contradictions.
All of us present a different "face" depending on who we
meet. The delineations below will reflect this, but they
will also give you a clear picture of who you really are.
The true value of astrology lies in self-knowledge, the
first step to wisdom.



YOUR MOST PERSONAL TRAITS -- THE DAY-SIGN OF YOUR BIRTH

Here are your strongest and most obvious personality
traits. The delineation below describes who you are and how
you appear to others, at least on the surface. In Aztec
astrology this part of is your horoscope is your Tonalli,
or Day-Sign, the form bestowed upon you by the Sun.

You are a person who is thinking all the time. You tend
to believe that the world can be made logical and that
rational solutions are the only solutions. At your finest,
you could be a brilliant engineer or political strategist
who pioneers new solutions to stubborn technical problems.
But, on the negative side, your capacity to rationalize
everything you perceive could lead to misjudgements and poor
choices when dealing with human situations. It is probably
due to the sheer intensity of your rational mind that you
often fail to take into account the human dimension of
emotions and feelings. Your challenge in life is to find a






Page 2

balance between these two extremes.

So much mental activity leads to views and opinions
that are based on abstractions or unrealized ideals. In
fact, most Earthquake personalities are progressive, liberal
or even radical in their thinking when compared with the
norm. Your tendency to be intellectually ahead of other
people can lead to a feeling of internal elitism, on the one
hand, or to being externally labeled "crazy" on the other.
You sometimes stride the boundary between what your society
labels normal and extreme, and you may have problems
adjusting to the constant stress and strain of conflicting
viewpoints. As a result, you probably require privacy and
rest at times -- what might be called a "mental health
break." The real issue here is a lack of balance between
head and heart.

You are probably a person who has a great sense of
humor. This grows out of the sharpness of your mind and
your ability to make practical use of close observations of
human nature. Many Earthquake personalities have made
comedy a career, although most simply appreciate a good joke
and love to laugh. Clowning comes naturally to you.
Interestingly, because it puts situations and people into
perspective, humor is a way of securing or steadying one's
hold on reality. When a comedian falls down, we laugh
because that shouldn't happen. Much humor is based on the
re-creation of uncomfortable and embarrassing situations.
Could it be that Earthquake personalities thrive on laughter
because they sense the boundary between comfort and
embarrassment more than most? Humor is a way of balancing a
shaky earth.

In social matters you tend to be strongly influenced by
the external needs of intellect and communication. This can
be a problem if a partner is very emotional and needs much
nurturing. Although you are very interested in others, your
close relationships usually suffer somewhat because of your
tendency to become too involved with your own interests.
Being engrossed in your own mind, you are not always the
most cooperative and compromising person. In some cases a
compliant and compromising partner could make things easier
for you -- this being the utilitarian approach to human
relationships. Many Earthquake types tend to have problems
handling the internal emotional realities of relationships,
and having realized that these matters are not easily fixed
like a broken machine, they turn their attention to the
external world and try to fix that.






Page 3


You tend to seek out leadership positions or solo
positions, possibly because you know how hard it is for you
to follow the path of another. You are a fiercely
independent person who can't stand being told what to do,
and, as one would imagine, you pay the price for this
tendency in your close relationships. As a leader, you are
probably regarded as progressive and possibly a little
threatening to those who identify with the status quo. If
leadership is something that is not open to you, you will
seek work that allows you a great deal of freedom. Night
work, constantly changing schedules and long hours are
always preferable to being forced into conformity.

The Aztec name for this day-sign is Ollin, which means
movement, rocking-motion or earthquake. It is the
seventeenth of the twenty day-signs and it was symbolized by
a glyph showing what may be four directions and a center,
one that graces the center of the famous calendar stone of
Mexico. The Aztecs considered this a sacred and fortunate
day on which to be born. Positively, those born under it
were to be blessed, of good fate and were promised
rulerships of principalities and kingdoms. It was said to
be more favorable for males than females. On the other
hand, it was a sign under which penances were done and
sacrifices were made. The deity that ruled this sign was
Xolotl, a monster associated with Venus as an evening star,
the star that appears to "push" the Sun into the darkness.
Exactly how this relates to the natives of this day-sign is
not clear, unless it suggests a close relationship with high
leadership or authority.

The personality of your day-sign is reflected in the
planet and sign emphasis in your Western astrological chart.
Probably prominent in your birth are the signs Aries and
Gemini or the planets Mars and Mercury. These symbolize
your aggressive mind and liking for challenges. Also,
Saturn and Uranus probably stand out in some way, these
being symbols of your independent streak.



WHAT YOU SHARE WITH THE OTHERS OF YOUR BIRTH YEAR

The Maya and Aztec astrologers recognized that each year
produces a unique group of people. Each individual year in
a 52-year cycle is linked with a number and a compass
direction that has an astrological meaning. The delineation






Page 4

below says something about you in only a general sense. It
describes the general traits that you share with others born
in your year.

You were born during the year called 3-East. The eastern
direction is where it all begins. The day begins when the
Sun rises in the East. The Moon rises there also, as do all
the other planets and stars. The East is the direction that
symbolizes the energy behind the "coming into existence" of
something. For those born during a year ruled by the East,
life itself is an opportunity to demonstrate self-worth and
to celebrate individual existence. In a very general sense
you are a person who is striving to be someone, a seeker of
self-realization. Life is about you and the development
(the rise) of your personal identity.

You are a self-starter. You don't always need others
to help you achieve your goals. You quickly see what has to
be done and then you roll up your sleeves and get to work.
You are competitive and will quickly move to the top of
whatever organization you are in. You are also an activist
and a progressive, generally staying near the "front of the
wave." Your worst tendency is to become too self-involved
and neglectful of others and their concerns.

The number 3 preceding the direction of your birth
indicates a special emphasis on expression and
communication. You have a need to express what and who you
are to others through the energy and style of your
direction.



YOUR DEEPER SELF -- THE 13-DAY WEEK OF YOUR BIRTH

Each of us reacts to the world around us in different
ways. Our reactions are mostly unconscious; they represent
what our deeper self needs. Our reactions both attract and
repel us from things, people, and situations. What we like,
what we like to do, and who we really are is shown by the
13-day week called the Trecena that we were born under. Each
of these periods begins with the number 1 and the name of
the day-sign that starts it. A number is attached to your
position within the 13-day period that may be an important
number for you.

You were born on the first day of the 13-day period that
begins with the day 1-Earthquake, a sign also called Motion.






Page 5

This sign influences you on two levels, your social mask and
your primary motivations. On both levels you are an
idealist.

Your imagination is very fertile and you may have found
creative ways to make fantasy pay off for you. Perhaps you
practice, or even excel, at music, theater, or one of the
arts -- at the very least you have a great appreciation for
them. Your ability to find ways to practically apply your
ideas, bridging the gap from fantasy to fact, is your
greatest asset. While you may be extremely creative and
full of ideas, you may also be somewhat unstable. Your
visions are so powerful, and can motivate you so strongly,
that you sometimes appear to others as obsessed and
dominating. As a leader you are dynamic, dominating, an
empire builder who thrives on constant change.

You are interested in things that others consider
progressive, unusual, or even radical. You are a pioneer or
risk-taker in life, a style that leads to many ups and
downs. You can be a leader, but because of your tendency to
run risks, don't always get all the support of those you
depend on. Stability comes from making good decisions,
rapidly. You respond well to mental stimulus and may be
well educated or be in a profession that calls for good
communication or learning skills. You probably have a good
sense of humor, a real asset when taking risks and going
through changes. You are a genuinely original person, one
who has found unique solutions, not those of everyone else,
to your problems.

Earthquake, both your day-sign and your 13-day period
ruler, is a sign of the East, a direction symbolic of
action, self-interest and self-realization. This is a
particularly potent combination, a reinforcement of
self-interest and personal intensity. You are capable of
great things due to your powerful mind, personal power, and
your dynamic leadership.



YOUR DEEPEST AND DARKEST MOTIVATIONS -- THE NIGHT LORD

The ancient Mayan and Aztec astrologers used a 9-day
cycle of gods and goddesses called the "Lords of the Night."
These deities symbolize the workings of your deepest and
darkest self, parts of you that others may not know of or
understand. They also symbolize the deepest forces behind






Page 6

your "will to exist."

You were born under the third Lord of the Night.
Pilzintecutli (Peel-zeen-tek-KOOT-lee), an Aztec sun god who
was the "noble offspring" of other gods, is your ruling
deity. You are a serious person with great ambitions. You
have a strong sense of self-importance or mission in life.
You may be a little insecure, but you strive to achieve
prominent social positions. If you are a mother, you may
project (experience) this pattern through your son (usually
the oldest) or through your husband.

You are a deeply serious person. You have high
expectations for yourself (or for your son or husband) and
you work hard to achieve your goals. You feel that your work
is crucial in some ways and beause of this you make make
sacrifices in your personal life. You may neglect
relationships, or simply make pragmatic choices in this area
in order to accomplish your tasks. This dedication to your
work or goals is admirable in some ways, but could lead to a
lopsided life as well. Perhaps the most important question
you need to ask yourself is "what is my real motivation for
all this effort or concern?"

In Aztec mythology, Piltzintecutli was the noble son of
the two gods who created the calendar and divination. Since
Piltizintechtli is associated with the sun, a heroic symbol,
and is mythologically the offspring of other gods, his
rulership suggests the notion of "favorite son" or "only
son." Through the mythology we discover the real meaning of
this second Lord of the Night -- the pressure of meeting up
to parental expectations. In many cases this is a burden,
the burden to meet up to expectations that are not really
your own. This translates as a kind of insecurity.

You seek the limelight and recognition for your
accomplishments, but for much of your life you may work
under the shadow of another, perhaps your father or another
authority figure. You hold traditional values and are not
quick to challenge this authority -- you see the value in
apprenticing or learning from the elders. You may be
attracted to authority figures in general, but you must be
realistic about the nature of such relationships. Authority
figures are dominating by their very nature and this may not
give you the room you need for yourself. One of your tasks
in life is to work to be an authority in your own right.
This is something that is earned, not bought through
association.






Page 7


In spite of your insecurities you are a powerful
person. You need to learn to how to use your power wisely
and responsibly. Your strength is in your persistence and
dedication to greater learning and improvement. Your dark
side lies in your internalized critical parent, the voice in
you that judges you and says that you're not good enough.
You must, if only psychologically, step out from under the
shadow of your father or other authority figure.



YOUR PATTERNS OF RELATIONSHIP -- THE PHASE OF VENUS

Maya and Aztec astrologers observed the phases of the
planet Venus and correlated them with events on earth.
Venus has four basic phases: morning star, evening star,
and two conjunctions with the Sun. The phase of Venus you
were born under symbolizes your relationship patterns --
how you approach and become involved with others, both
individuals and groups.

You were born with Venus in its Evening Star phase.
According to the Maya, this is a 250-day period when Venus
is visible after the Sun sets. This phase follows the
Superior Conjunction phase and precedes the Inferior
Conjunction phase.

For you, feelings and emotions arise after an action
has been taken. In making judgments, which you do very
well, you evaluate what has happened against the background
of society's rules and values. You instinctively understand
the power, and perhaps the correctness, of the world as it
is and has been. Your vision is one that has probably been
strongly influenced by tradition.

There is a subtle anger in your life, possibly a
reaction to being imprinted by society, culture or your
parents. One result of this is shown in your aggressive
actions against the powers that be. It is as if you resent
the fact that you are so deeply conditioned to evaluate and
interpret the world in a certain way, and so you take out
this anger on others. But this is very subtle and most of
you will only notice this pattern in a general way, over the
course of a lifetime.

One positive manifestation of evening star Venus is
that you may become, consciously or unconsciously,






Page 8

successful due to the fact that you personify certain family
and traditional values. In extreme cases, you could become
a hero, a person who represents what your society believes
in. It is through participation with the traditions and
cultural definitions of reality that you achieve emotional
satisfaction and success in life.


YOUR DAYS OF PEAK EXPERIENCE

From time to time we experience periods where our lives
seem to be rushing forward -- almost out of control.
Sometimes we accomplish great things during these periods;
sometimes we become stressed or fail at something. More
often we find that our experience of life is more intense,
and richer. The Maya astrologers discovered such a cycle:
your "peak" dates in this cycle are listed below.

You will probably find that your experience of life
becomes more intense about five days before the peak date
and then builds. Keywords displayed next to the dates are a
suggestion of how to focus your energies.

BACKGROUND - THE NATURE OF MAYA/AZTEC ASTROLOGY

Like the civilizations of China, India and the Ancient
Near East, the early American civilizations developed an
astrology, a logic of the sky. Archaeological evidence of
Native American astrology points to origins as far back as
600 BC, and perhaps even earlier. Unlike the astrologies of
the Old World, the astrology of ancient Mesoamerica (Mexico
and parts of Central America) developed in isolation and was
not influenced by other traditions. Its very nature
therefore is very different from the astrological traditions
Westerners are more familiar with.

All of the Mesoamerican civilizations, Olmec, Toltec,
Maya, Zapotec and Aztec, used essentially the same
astrology. Although the names of symbols varied, the
concepts remained the same. Because the Aztecs were the
predominant civilization at the time of the Spanish
Conquest, we have chosen to use their symbol names in this
modern reconstruction of the Mesoamerican astrological
tradition.

At the core of Mesoamerican astrology are the 20
day-signs. Like the 12 signs of the Western Zodiac, these
are signs descriptive of both personality and possibility.
In other words, the signs can be used to describe a person,
or they can describe an event. In the Western 12-sign
zodiac, the signs are sections of space spread across the
sky along the path of the Sun, Moon and planets. The
Maya/Aztec day-signs are very different, they are based on
time and are actually names of days. Each sign lasts only
one day, until it comes up again twenty days later. Like
our 7-day week, which is astrological and named for the
planets, the Maya and Aztecs used a 20-day week for
astrological purposes.

There is no presently known reason why the Maya and
Aztecs used only 20 signs. Perhaps they had discovered an
important biorhythm or cycle. But besides the 20-days, they
also used a 13-day cycle (or sign) and these intertwined
with each other. While the days of the 20-day cycle each
have a name, the days of the 13-day cycle are numbered from
1 to 13. If you start both cycles together, the first day
of the 20-day cycle coinciding with the first day of the
13-day cycle, it will take exactly 260 days for all possible
combinations of day and number to occur. This period, 260
days, is the length of the sacred Mesoamerican astrological
calendar that this program is based on.

You may have noticed that each of the signs is
connected to a particular direction. The signs of the east
are initiating and forceful. Those of the north are
intellectual and critical. Signs of the west are cooperative






Page 12

and compromising. Signs of the south are emotional and
reactive.

The day-sign a person was born under is the named day
that occurred on their birthday. It delineates their most
obvious personality characteristics and traits. A person is
also born during one of twenty 13-day periods, periods that
begin with a day-sign linked to the number 1. The 13-day
period delineates their more subtle, possibly subconscious,
personality qualities. It shows their deeper instincts and
yearnings. The combination of day-sign and 13-day period
yields a quite complete personality description, perhaps as
good or even better than does the Western 12-sign zodiac.
It should be said that these two signs represent only a
partial reconstruction of what was once a more complex
system. The rest, including signs ruling the year and the
hour of birth, have been lost or completely recovered and
made workable.

Because the day-signs signify general meanings and
themes as well as personality configurations, they were used
by the Aztecs for divinations. Like the I-Ching, a random
drawing of beans or stones would allow a reader to find one
of the 260 sign/number combinations and thus an answer to a
question. Even today, the 260-day astrological calendar is
used by Native American daykeepers in remote parts of
Guatemala and Mexico. The divination section of this
program utilizes computer technology to randomly select the
sign/number combinations that may yield insights into a
question asked.

Because the Maya and Aztecs did not have a developed
writing system, and because most of their astrological
knowledge was destroyed by the Spanish friars, little was
known about this great product of their, and other
Mesoamerican, cultures. The delineations used in this
program were arrived at after several years of historical
investigation, deep thought, and trial and error
experimentation. Long lists of persons famous or known to
the author, yet born under the same day-sign, were compared
with each other. Eventually, this process led to some key
concepts about each of the signs and the results, in the
form of personality descriptions, are found in this program.
The meanings for the signs when used in divinations were
extrapolated from this information also.

We hope you find Maya/Aztec astrology to be not only
interesting and fun, but helpful and a source of insight






Page 13

into your life.



THE YEAR OF BIRTH

The Maya and Aztecs believed that the year of birth could
be read astrologically and that the astrological qualities
of any given year were dependent on two factors. First is a
cycle of 4 years. In this cycle each succeeding year is
associated with one of the four directions in the order
east, north, west, and south. The directions are similar to
the elements (fire, air, earth, and water) in Western
astrology. The Aztec delineations for the years are as
follows.

East: creative/mental -- fertile/abundant

North: violent weather -- barren/dry/cold

West: wild/losses/illness -- cloudy/evil

South: good business/health -- variable

A second factor is a cycle of 52 years. In this longer
period, 13 repetitions of the basic 4-year cycle are
counted. As each year arrives, it is identified with a
number and a direction. Four cycles of 13 years each make
up the 52-year calendar round or Xiuhmolpilli.

Not all ancient Mexican cultures applied the cycle of
years the same way. There was a lack of consensus about
which year was linked to which number. The Aztecs used Reed
(east), Knife (north), House (west), and Rabbit (south).
The Classic Maya used Caban (east), Ik (north), Manik
(west), and Eb (south), which correlate with Earthquake,
Wind, Deer, and Grass. During Postclassic times the pattern
was changed. The Classic pattern is used by the Quiche Maya
who have kept the astrological traditions alive in
Guatamala. The author believes that the year correlation
established by the Classic Maya and continued by the Quiche
Maya works.

Four and eight-year cycles have been found in nature by
cycle researchers, a strong suggestion that there may be a
real material basis to the cycling of the years. It is also
interesting to note that the Olympics and United States
presidential elections are held in the same year, years that






Page 14

are ruled by the east, according to the Quiche. Further,
the Chinese cycle of 12 years correlates with this pattern
if you look at it as three groupings of a 4-year cycle.



THE LORDS OF THE NIGHT

One component of Maya astrology was a 9-day cycle that
ran alongside the cycle of the day-signs. These 9 days were
said to be ruled by the Lords of the Night, one for each
day. The names of the Maya gods are barely known, but the
Aztecs have left a complete list.

The Lords of the Night are not a calendar per se, but a
kind of symbolic cycle. The Maya linked the Lords to the
Long Count. We know that on August 11, -3113 the ninth Lord
was ruler. Start ing from this date we run a 9-day cycle
along with the day-signs which allows the program to find
the ruling Lord of the Night for any date. The 260-days of
the tzolkin do not mesh perfectly with the 9-day cycle and
it takes 9 cycles of 260 (2,340 days or 6.4 years) before
the same combination occurs again.

Much less is known about how the Aztecs used the cycle.
It appears that they ran the 9-day cycle against the 260
days and had the last two Lords ruling the last of the 260
days. In this manner the cycle would start again at the
same place. In Maya/Aztec Astro-Report we have chosen to
follow Maya usage.

Some writers have suggested that the Lords of the Night
are actually a division of the nightime hours. Like the
planetary hours of Western astrology, the night was divided
into 9ths with the 5th Lord's rule centered around midnight.
In this line of reasoning the day was divided into 13
hours.



THE CYCLE OF VENUS

Of the planets visible to the ancient skywatchers of
Mesoamerica, Venus was the most important. Due to its
alternations from morning to evening star it was believed to
be a symbol of certain profound dualities in nature and in
man. Because the orbit of Venus lies between the Earth and
the Sun, it never strays too far from the Sun and can only






Page 15

be seen close to the times of sunrise and sunset, depending
on which part of its cycle it is in. From the perspective
of an observer, it takes Venus 584 days on average to
complete one cycle of morning and evening star. This figure
meshes with the solar year of 365 days and the 260-day
astrological calendar precisely every 104 years. The start
of its cycle was its first appearance as a morning star, an
event called by astronomers its heliacal rising.

According to the Dresden Codex, an ancient Maya
manuscript that is one of the most authoritative sources on
Maya astronomy and astrology, the cycle of Venus began when
its rays first appeared in the twilight of dawn. This event
usually occurs several days after the Inferior Conjunction
of Venus with the Sun. The Inferior Conjunction is so-named
because Venus, the lesser body, passes in front of the Sun,
the greater body. In this conjunction, Venus, which
disappears in rays of the Sun for over a week during this
time, comes closest to the Earth. The Maya allocated
exactly 8 days for this phase of the Venus cycle. After its
heliacal rising, the second phase of the Venus cycle, its
phase as a morning star, commenced. The Maya allocated 236
days to this period.

As Venus ends its time as a morning star, it once again
disappears into the rays of the Sun. As it moves to conjoin
the Sun again, it does so at its greatest distance from
Earth. The conjunction in this part of its cycle is called
the Superior Conjunction, because here Venus passes behind
the Sun. The Maya allocated 90 days for this third phase of
the cycle, a phase where Venus is not visible. After it
re-emerges from behind the rays of the Sun, Venus begins its
phase as an evening star, a phase for which the Maya
allocated 250 days. These four phases of the Venus cycle, 8
days, 236 days, 90 days and 250 days add up to 584 days, the
full cycle of Venus. The duration of these phases is a
symbolic approximation of the astronomical facts, which
actually vary somewhat from cycle to cycle.

The Maya and Aztecs believed that the cycle of Venus
depicted the experiences of the god Quetzalcoatl in his
descent to Earth. The first rising of Venus as a morning
star symbolized his arrival on Earth. During the morning
star phase Quetzalcoatl was overcome by desire and lust and
committed sins; he pushed against the boundaries of society.
During the disappearance of Venus at Superior Conjunction,
a warlike athletic duel with the Sun took place and during
the evening star phase, Quetzalcoatl, now fully sober,






Page 16

walked the Earth until his sacrificial death during the
Inferior Conjunction. He was then reborn as the new Venus
and the cycle began again.

This report calculates the phase that Venus was in at
your birth according to the figures used and recorded by the
ancient Maya. For each phase, the program offers a brief
interpretation of the possible significance of Venus, symbol
of both impulsive personal desire and collective social
values, in your life.



MAYA/AZTEC PREDICTIVE TECHNIQUES

In ancient times, the 260-day astrological calendar was
subdivided into four ritual periods or "seasons." Centered
on the days 4-Serpent, 4-Dog, 4-Eagle and 4-Flower were what
were known as the "burner" periods, or times when the
"burner" would flare up. These divisions were spaced 65
days apart (260 divided by 4 = 65). In this context the
260-day calendar was used in a collective manner (as in
mundane astrology) and perhaps these were times when certain
kinds of extremes were experienced by the community.
Rituals involving fires were staged with the intention of
preventing or healing communal crises. Interestingly, these
dates often fall within a few days of newsworthy crises that
occur in today's world.

In the modern world where the individual comes first,
experience has shown that dividing the 260-day cycle into
fourths beginning from one's birthday reveals "critical"
points that mark shifts or changes in personal matters. In
many cases rather extreme events do occur precisely on one
of the critical days, in others the effects occur a few days
earlier. In some cases the effects are more subtle or
psychological in nature. In understanding these critical
dates it is helpful to view them from two perspectives,
cycle and direction.

From your birthday, every 260 days represents one
completed cycle in life. If this cycle of 260 days is
divided by 4, or quartered, four sets, or "seasons," of 65
days is the result. Using the symbolism of the Sun/Moon
cycle as a model, the occurrence of the birth day-sign is
like the New Moon, the beginning of the cycle and a time of
personal centering and new, barely conscious, beginnings. 65
days later corresponds (symbolically) to the first quarter,






Page 17

a time of crisis that demands action and adjustment. The
midpoint of the cycle, 130 days, corresponds to the Full
Moon, a time of separation or perspective. 195 days from
the start of the cycle compares with the third quarter, a
time of crisis requiring conscious choice.

The second perspective on the critical days is to
recognize that each of the four dates in the cycle
corresponds to one of the four directions. These are listed
below.

East: Alligator, Serpent, Water, Reed, Earthquake. These
are points that emphasize the need to be creative, to do
something new and to move forward.

North: Wind, Death, Dog, Ocelot, Knife. These are points
that may indicate crisis and the need to protect oneself
from negative energy. The mind is under pressure during
these times.

West: House, Deer, Monkey, Eagle, Rain. These are points
of encounter with others, times of sharing and loss of ego.
Relationships are important now.

South: Lizard, Rabbit, Grass, Vulture, Flower. These are
points of strong feelings and emotional extremes. These may
also be times of accomplishment and activity in the outside
world.

Combining cycle symbolism with directional symbolism
gives deeper insight into the patterns of the critical days.
For example, if a sign of the north coincides with one of
the quarters, a stressful time might be expected. If a sign
of the west coincides with the opposition, important
developments in relationships may be a prominent theme. A
keyword has been given for each of the combinations that may
suggest the direction in which the energies and trends are
heading around that time. Experience has also shown that the
effects of the critical days often become apparent several
days before the exact day computed in this report.
