10 Female Earth / 10 Jaguar in the Mayan - Azteca Calendar

10 Ix / 10 Ocelotl, 10th Day in the Week 1 Snake
Lunar Eclipse, full moon. This 13 day week will usually have an eclipse every other (260 day) year.
10 Ix (Maya) - Glyph of earth god; or jaguar. Ix is a female god spirit in Chorti and refers to being split open (i.e. corn)
10 Ocelotl (Nahuatl) - Jaguar

Direction: North

Acajutla High Tides: 1:34 AM and 2:12 PM
Semi-diurnal Tide range: 1.78 meters average, increasing. (Difference in High/Low Tides). Usually a full moon on a 10-day will be a huge tide, but with this being an eclipse, the tide is still rather slack. The Pacific Coast Mayans of 2000 years ago would have been able to predict this.

Keywords: Understanding of the nature of power. Lack of understand leads to manipulation and domination.
