What is the Mayan horoscope?

First of all, we must not confuse the Mayan calendar with the Mayan horoscope. However, it is true that the second is based on the first, although with certain conditions, as we will see below.

A Mayan horoscope is based on two calendars. On the one hand, we have the one known as HaabCafric, which is the one that marks the 365 days of the year, as we know today. However, there is another one that only has 260 days and is considered as the sacred calendar of Tzol. Both have to be taken into account in this case.

And it is only by uniting these calendars that the relationship between solar and lunar time appears for the Mayans. Thus, there are a total of 13 moons that represent the 13 signs of the Mayan horoscope.

This singularity is due to the fact that the Moon appears in 13 different places in the sky according to the Mayans, hence they count a total of 13 lunar months and give each one of them a Mayan horoscope sign with a different stellar image.

The number 13 was the magic number for the Mayans and therefore they used it to divide their year (they had a 260-day calendar) into 13 cycles of around 28 days (lunar cycle). Although its precision is somewhat more complicated and the days change a little from one year to another, this classification of signs can serve as a guide.

Who were the Mayans?

The Mayan civilization was a Mesoamerican civilization that developed in and around the Yucatan Peninsula region from the Early Preclassic to the Late Postclassic period according to the traditional periodization of Mesoamerica.

The Mayan cities were made up of palaces and temples inhabited by the nobility, the priests and their servants. The rest of the population was scattered in small towns in the surroundings.

The Mayan civilization covered a wide region that included part of the southeast of the current State of Mexico, as well as the territories of Belize and Guatemala and the north of El Salvador and Honduras.

Some of the main characteristics of the Mayan civilization, the creators of the Mayan horoscope, were the following:

They came to cover, discontinuously, more than 400,000 km². The ancient Mayan territory is currently occupied by five countries: Mexico (southeast), Guatemala, Belize, Honduras (north) and El Salvador (north).
They were organized in city-states that often competed with each other and others, established alliances.
They reached their maximum cultural splendor between the 3rd and 10th centuries AD. C., that is, during the Classic period, according to the periodization of Mesoamerican history.
They were great astronomers. Through observation and precise calculations, they managed to establish two calendars, one solar and one lunar, which allowed them to accurately determine astronomical phenomena such as eclipses and equinoxes.

Although they disappeared hundreds of years ago, the Mayans left us many discoveries, including the Mayan horoscope. His amazing knowledge of astronomy together with his spirituality generated a very rich Mayan horoscope in which there are up to 13 signs of the zodiac.
