Mayan Astrology-Themed Pendant Necklace with Tijax Sign, "Tijax Emblem"

The Maya firmament was blessed with a privileged location that allowed them to see the galaxy's center and its harmonious pace, guiding them in every aspect of their lives. This unique way to connect nature and humanity resulted in the Mayan astrology sign, an ancient doctrine intended to identify each person's spiritual nature by looking at the stars.

As a way to wear your Mayan identity, Maura Parra from Guatemala creates this leather-cord nickel necklace for those born on the Tijax day, the day of "enlightenment" in the Nahual language. With the rod of Asclepius, a bird and a sailfish embossed along with the sign's name, the accessory represents the souls born with innate resilience, characterized by optimism, courage and empathy.
