Basics of Mayan Religion

Religion was an important part of life for the Maya.

Because they built their cities in the rainforest surrounded by nature 

they had many nature gods who could

shape shift into animal or human form.

According to the Maya legend the earth is a giant turtle

and the sky is held up by four mighty gods.

God Bacab

The old god of the inner earth and sky he later split himself into the 4 gods (Bacabs)

Can Tzicnal - of the North, preferred colour is White.

Hozanek - of the South and prefers Yellow.

Hobnil of the East and prefers Red.

Zac Cimi - of the West and prefers Black

The sky has 13 levels split into 3 parts.

13 is a sacred number to the Mayans

Makes up the Mayan Horoscope.

The heavens full of people who died in battle.

The earth where mortals live

The underworld where the rest of the dead live. 

These parts are connected by a giant ceiba tree, 

roots deep in the underworld, branches supporting heaven.

A king or ruler was worshipped as a god and was said to be able to communicate

with the dead 

The Maya built hundreds of stepped stone pyramids,

 these were temples dedicated to the gods

where priests offered sacrifices to calm down the gods when they got angry.

 

Cities would go to war against each other to steal

food and capture people to offer to the gods.

 They also made daily sacrifices for the sun god,

they feared that if they didn't the sun, which all life depended on, wouldn't rise

The 7 Mayan Prophecies

What The Mayan Priests Would Have Said About You 

~ Instant Access ~

The First Maya Prophecy 

announces the end of the present cycle, that from the year 1999 there are 13 years remaining, that every person is in the great room of mirrors to find his own multidimensional nature within himself.

Their calendar contains the coded information which indicates the key date for the transformation: Saturday, December 22, 2012, and from there on.

The Second Maya Prophecy

The answers to everything are inside of man, not outside in the material world. 

It affirms that humanity finds itself in a moment of fundamental transition toward a new way of perceiving the universe…that the universe and the solar system are receiving a beam of light, energy, and information from the centre of the galaxy, and that this is causing an increase in the vibration of the planet and the brain waves and cells of man, placing him with this new frequency, causing enormous changes in his behaviour.

The second Maya prophecy shows two paths: one of understanding and tolerance, and one of fear and destruction.

Man will learn the necessary lessons for the evolution of consciousness.

This prophecy tells us that humanity is moving toward a new era of harmony, and that to get there, we must confront our greatest fears and accept that we are faced with difficult situations in order to learn from them, maintaining peace in any situation which we experience. No matter how difficult the challenges, we can maintain and increase our internal energy, producing a state of high vibration and a state of respect for all that exists.

The difficult situations will remain in our lives as long as we need to learn something from them.

The Third Maya Prophecy

says that we must become aware of our influence on the planet so that we do not continue making mistakes, or causing its destruction, as has happened over the course of history. The processes of industrialisation without ecological sensitivity have caused, with its wastes, a general increase in the temperature of the planet. This will be accentuated by increased activity of the sun, caused by the energy received from the centre of the galaxy, creating great changes in weather and winds.

There will be energy vortexes which will clean the earth’s surface.

The Fourth Maya Prophecy

tells us: man must cease his destructive behaviour, in order to synchronize with the rhythms of nature and adjust to the changes which will take the whole universe to an era of harmony. The climate changes will produce a melting of the poles, allowing the planet to be cleansed and green again, producing great changes in the physical composition of the continents.

The Fifth Maya Prophecy 

says that all systems based on fear which affect our civilisation, will transform simultaneously with the planet and humanity, to take a new step toward the reality of harmony.

Systems will fail to confront humanity with itself, making us see the need to reorganise society and continue on the path of evolution, allowing us to understand Creation. Money will cease to be used as a form of exchange, and the symptoms which are emerging in various parts of the world seem to confirm this.

A single, common spiritual path will emerge for all humanity which will end the established limits we have set for the different ways of seeing God.

The new galactic day is seen in all religions and cults as an era of peace and harmony for all humanity. Therefore, it is clear that whatever does not contribute to this result should disappear or change. The new era of Light cannot allow a humanity based on a military economy which imposes truths by force.

The dawn of the galaxy should be based on PROFOUND RESPECT for each other, and the recognition of all that exists. The new humanity will not need existing technology communication systems, for we will be connected mentally, and therefore violence should cease to exist.

We are at the end of the night of 5125 years; at the end of a galactic day of 26,000 years, at the point of entering the dawn of the galaxy. The era of change which the Maya called “the time of no time” was also prophesied by other cults and religions. All agree that the world is at the point of a change of huge proportions, soon after which will occur a period of chaos which will usher in a new phase of evolution of consciousness and unprecedented changes in humanity.

The Sixth Maya Prophecy

says that in the next few years a comet will appear whose trajectory will place humanity’s existence in danger, also predicted by many religions and cults; in the Bible’s book of Revelations it appears under the name Wormwood.

The Maya knew that for modern man, to discover with anticipation an asteroid so large and then divert it, would be one of the major achievements of human history and a critical act, that would unite us as a species.

The Seventh Maya Prophecy

It is said that in the years from 1999 onwards, the Light being emitted from the centre of the galaxy synchronizes all living beings and permits them to voluntarily access an internal transformation which produces new realities, that we all have the opportunity to change and break our limitations, receiving a new sense. Those who voluntarily find their interior state of peace, taking their frequency of vital energy from fear to LOVE, will be able to Evolve.

Ancient Maya Gods and Goddesses

Discover The Power Quadrant System

Around a dozen or so Maya gods have been identified and they could exist at the same time in several different forms.

Pawahtuun, for example, was a god who stood at the four corners (cardinal directions) of the world, so he is seen in four different forms.

In the Maya codices and art, certain features distinguish supernatural beings from historical characters:

goggle eyes, prominent front teeth/snout, so called “god-markings” combination of various animal and human characteristics

Itsamnaaj / Itzamna, The Supreme Creator

Itzamna was the name of the supreme creator deity, lord of the heavens, day and night and inventor of books and writing.

In the codices, Itzamna is represented as an old man with toothless jaws and sunken cheeks.

K’inich Ajaw, The Sun God

Kinich Ahaw means “Sun-faced Ruler” – that is, the sun god.

K’inich Ajaw is easily recognisable with his large square squinting eyes, roman nose and upper T-shaped incisors and the tendril-like elements curling from each corner of his mouth.

The K’in (“Sun”) sign is commonly found attached to his head or body. K’inich Ajaw is often associated with kings and royal dynasties.

Chaak /Chaac or Chac, The Rain God

Due to the climate pattern of Central America and the importance of rain for agriculture, Chaak was a very important god.

He was the god of lightning, thunder, rain and water.

Chaak wears shells over his ears, has a long protruding nose and tendril-like elements curling from each corner of the mouth. He carries an axe that symbolizes thunderbolts.

Yum Kaax, The Maize God

According to the Popol Vuh, human-beings were created by the gods with maize (corn) flour and water..

In the codices, the maize god is depicted as a young man wearing an ear of corn as his headdress and sometimes the glyph Kan which is itself a symbol for corn.

He is often shown with an elongated head (like the shape of corn on the cob).

K’awiil / Bolon Ts’akab, The God of Lightning

K’awiil is the Maya deity of lightning and is often held as a sceptre by Maya rulers.

He is recognisable by a mirror on his forehead from which an axe-blade sticks out, an upturned snout and a snake as one of his legs.

Ek’ Chuwah / Ek Chuaj, Merchant Deity

Ek’ Chuwah (“Black Scorpion”) was a merchant deity and also the god of cacao.

He is depicted as black-and-white (Dresden Codex) or entirely black (Madrid Codex) and carrying a bundle of merchandise on his back.

War and Merchant God

Although his name has not been deciphered yet, this god was a very important aged divinity.

He is often represented smoking cigars and wearing a large hat made of black-tipped owl feathers.

Pawahtuun/Bacab, Divinity of the Sky and Earth

Pawahtuun stands at the four corners of the world supporting the sky.

He is often represented as an old man wearing a turtle or seashell on his back.

Ix Chel/Chak Chel, Goddess of Childbirth and Healing

Ix Chel (“Lady Rainbow”) was the goddess of childbirth, healing and weaving.

She is often depicted as an aged woman with snakes and spindles (used in weaving) in her hair.

In 16th-century Yucatan, the cult of Ix Chel was quite popular and she even had a sanctuary on the island of Cozumel.

Moon Goddess

The moon goddess is shown as a young woman holding a rabbit and seated in the moon crescent.

The Maya generally assumed the moon to be female and they saw the shape of a rabbit in the moon.

The Death Gods

In Maya art, many supernatural beings are connected with death and the underworld (“Xibalba“, “the place of fright”).

They are all marked with symbols related to death; disembodied eyes, skulls and skeletal bodies.

Two gods stand out (but they are likely two manifestations of the same deity):

Hun-Came (Kimi) in the Popol Vuh and “Humhau” or “Yum Kimil” in 16th-century Yucatan.

Vucub-Came in the Popol Vuh and “Uac Mitun Ahau” in 16th-century Yucatan.
