8 Rain in the Mayan Calendar

8 Rain, 8th Day in the Week 1-Tooth / 1 Grass (this 13 day week never has an eclipse)
8 Cauac (Maya)
8 Quiahuitl (Nahuatl)
Direction: West

New Moon
Acajutla High Tides: 2:15 AM and 2:52 PM
Semi-diurnal Tide range: 1.54 meters average and increasing. (Difference in High/Low Tides)
Unusually slack tides for the 8th day of the week, which would have signaled the Mayans that an eclipse was approaching.
With fishing still bad from the slack tides and a new moon, a good time to hunt all day.

Keywords: Conflict avoidance; compromise. Healing others but may be harmed oneself. Matters about the house.
