TONALAMATL

When one is born, that person inherits an identity that has an ILUIKAPOTZINTLI, a respectable cosmic companion, and a KAUPOTZINTLI, a respectable temporal companion, among others. These companions will guide one to help fulfill one’s mission and meet his or her destiny.

Every action and event such as a birth, takes place at its own particular time, and accordingly, there are influences that will guide such actions. These are the symbols and images that the Europeans mistook as gods, and why they assigned to our grandfathers a “pantheon of a thousand gods”. In fact, these are very real and natural elements and concepts.

In addition to the symbols of the days and their respective Cosmic Companions, there are many more influences that accompany us from our birth until our return to nature. Here we want to briefly present to you a few more of those energies that our ancestors learned to recognize and respect and live
in harmony with.

The 9 guides of the night, the 13 guides of the day and the 13 volatiles represent different generating energies that the human beings receive from nature. At the moment that we exit the maternal womb they will integrate us into the
exterior world where we receive the primordial element, which is the air and is symbolized by the nose of the central figure of the “TONALMACHIOTL”, which is the face of the earth.

Our grandfathers say that when we are born, E’E’KATL KETZALKOATL breathes into our nostrils the ILHIOTL, which is the breath of life. With our first cry we are entering into this world and at that moment all these energies will reach us. These energies are always changing from one moment to another, so they are very personal.

The 9 guides of the night belong to count of TEZKATLIPOKA and help mold the potential that is received by our internal self. They will help us to know and accept ourselves as we truly are.


The 13 guides of the day mold our appearance and our personality. They will help us create the image that we want others to know of us.

The 13 volatiles are characteristics always united with the same guide of the day and the same number. These will help the guides of the days manifest themselves by the energy that we receive from the Sun; in fact they are part of the TONALLI, birth energy, of TONATIU.
We concluded this work summarizing the practical utility of this calendar system, adapting the information here presented in this brief introduction, in order that it may be applied now, in our daily life. It should astonish us even more upon discovering that this teaching is for all times, always effective and always active.
The knowledge of all our possibilities provides us with the coherence, rationality and sensibility to understand ourselves better. Given this we will be able to accept ourselves with our successes and our limitations by means of the positive and negative attributes, inherent in each one of us. Upon being conscious of them, we are now in conditions of impelling and increasing those that are positive, in search, always, of harmony for daily coexistence. At the same time, we can now take responsibility for our actions or lack thereof.
This is the purpose of the measurements
of time created by our ancestors.


The system that they left us as our inheritance is a tool for the invigoration of our own identity. In its structure are the models in mathematical equations that show us the probabilities and potentials, for the functioning that we must adapted for the development of a community and a nation.

Like individuals and like the social entities that we are; working for the fulfillment of the destiny of a nation taken from an ancient model that seeks to find appropriate solutions so that there is harmony in the society.
