The significance of this day

Day Coatl (Snake) is governed by Chalchihuitlicue as its provider of tonalli (Shadow Soul) life energy.
Coatl is the day of the snaking river that always changes without changing. It signifies the fleeting
moment of eternal water. A good day for humility, a bad day for acting on self-interests.

The thirteen day period (trecena) that starts with day 1-Ocelotl (Jaguar) is ruled by Quetzalcoatl. This
trecena represents brilliance and clarity during a profound eclipse of the light. The principal
influence of this time is the divine Whirlwind: to stand in its path calls down destruction; to stand in
its eye calls down creation. These are good days to withdraw into the solitude of contemplation and
self-discipline; bad days to traffic with those on another path. In the center of it all, the warrior
strives to be the mirror rather than the reflection.
