What is a Tzolk’in day sign?
The Tzolk’in is a traditional 260-day sacred Maya calendar.
It combines:
20 named days
with
a repeating sequence of numbers from 1 to 13.
Your day sign is one of those twenty recurring named days.
But the sign is only part of your complete Tzolk’in position.
A complete date combines a number and named day — for example, 4 Ajaw.
Astralway therefore doesn't treat a Tzolk’in day sign as simply a “Mayan zodiac sign” or another personality type.
It belongs to a distinct Maya calendrical tradition.
