What is your sign according to the Mayan calendar?
The Mayan civilization developed one of the most complex and precise calendrical systems in history. Rather than viewing time as linear, they understood it as cyclical and deeply spiritual. In this context, each day carried a unique energy that influenced personality, life purpose, and the way individuals relate to the world.
Within this worldview, two main calendars emerge: the Tzolkin, with 260 days, and the Haab, with 365 days. When combined, these systems create energetic cycles that allow the interpretation of a person’s character and essence according to their date of birth. From this tradition, the Mayan horoscope was born, composed of 13 signs, each associated with a moon and represented by a sacred animal.
These animals are not merely symbolic. In fact, they embody behavioral archetypes, natural talents, inner challenges, and unique ways of moving through life. Therefore, discovering your Mayan sign becomes a powerful way to reconnect with ancestral wisdom that remains relevant today and offers valuable insights for self-knowledge.
The 13 animals of the Mayan horoscope are: Monkey, Falcon, Jaguar, Dog, Serpent, Squirrel, Turtle, Bat, Scorpion, Deer, Owl, Peacock, and Lizard.
To discover your sign, you only need your date of birth. Below, you will find the meaning of each one.
