Jaguar. Ch'orti': B'ahram; Quiche: Ix; Yucatec: Ix; Aztec/Nahua: Ocelotl. Using Julian-tzolk'in correlation: 584188. This day sign has the same meaning in all four languages. It is interesting that in Ch'orti' ix, the name in Quiche and Yucatec, means "movement". The name B'ahram comes from b'ar (latticing) + am (spider). Spider latticing or spider web refers to the pen made by the Maya on Isla Tigre that was modelled on the design of the spider web. The pen was used to tame the jaguar in about 8300 BCE, which is recorded in the Popol Vuh. Later a similar pen was used to tame the mountain lion (puma) and the Middle Eastern wildcat.
The jaguar is a cat - independent, moody, begging, and beguiling. Jaguar day is a wizard day, a day to create magic like the magic of a pen to tame the jaguar. It is also a day to break addictions and stop patterns.
In the Mars retrograde calendar, the date 1 B'ahram is one of the most famous, mentioned in the Popol Vuh. It was 7836 BCE, the same year of the rain storm/volcanic eruption/landslide/tsunami that wiped out the village of Teotipa, including the tame jaguars that were there.
