THERE ARE
3 DAYS of THE WiND GOD
TODAY 'KAN' is one of them
~Susan Lynne Schwenger


10 December 2019 -1 Kan (Chicchan)

There are three day signs
which relate to the archetype
of Feathered Serpent.
One of them is Iq’,
which is Feathered Serpent as the wind god,
the primal creator spirit
who appears in the first few pages
of the Pop Wuj.
The day sign Aj is the K’iche’ equivalent
of the Aztec Acatl (Reed),
and relates to the historical Toltec spiritual teacher
called Topiltzin Quetzalcoatl.
Kan (Yucatec: Chicchan) simply means
“snake” in K’iche’
and symbolizes Feathered Serpent
as a manifestation of the energy
within the body which is called koyopa.
Koyopa literally means “lightning.”
If you are speaking to a campesino
with no interest in costumbre
(the ancient ways),
he is probably referring to
actual lightning in the sky.
But if you are speaking to a daykeeper,
he’s probably talking about the “inner lightning.”
This inner lightning is perceived
as a serpent.
Bolts of lightning are “serpents in the sky.”
This inner lightning or koyopa is a feminine power.
My friend Dona Maria told me
that when she was a young girl her elders
(people born near the beginning of the 20th century)
always told her that girls ought not
to stare at the lightning,
because the affinity between women
and lightning was so intense
that overly sensitive individuals
could easily fall out of balance.
The koyopa is also a messenger.
It sends us signals by causing a trembling
in one of the 13 major joints in the body.
Often, this trembling comes to daykeepers
as they perform the divination ritual,
and it means that a special message
is coming to them from the ancient gods.
In Yucatec: Ben, Ik, and Chicchan.

If you are speaking K'iche',
it's Aj, Iq', and Kan.

The same three day signs in Nahuatl,

the language of the Aztecs,

would be Acatl, Ehecatl, and Coatl.
