What’s Your Mayan Zodiac Sign And Spirit Animal?

Mayan civilization is one of the biggest and most advanced in Latin America. It experienced its greatest achievements during the pre-classic and classic periods in two main areas: astrology and exact sciences.

The Maya created a calendar according to the cycles of the moon: the star of the night sky symbolized woman, her strength, and the power of femininity in men too.

It was said that if you could win over the moon, you would be successful in whatever you set your mind to.

According to their calendar, the year consisted of 13 lunar periods of exactly 28 days. The year begins on July 26, and every lunar month is represented by an animal, considered to be the guardian of those born under its lunar cycle.
