Chicuace is the number six. Chicuace signifies the principle of self-integration through introspection and constant search of knowledge to understand the self. For humans, chicuace is restfulness before putting ideas in order before engaging new knowledge. In nature six has structural solidity. In people chicuace is a way of keeping impulsive ideas in check while searching for spirituality.
Resume: Chicuace is the constant search for knowledge and spirituality. Mictlantecuhtli Teoyaomiqui is an evolving internal transformation based on life experiences. Chicuahtli represents constant serene and imperturbable self-evaluation, these are persons that never act out of impulse, they are patient, reflective, and centered. Their intellect and intuition are activated at dusk. Uauantli, el rayado, represents the tilling of the land that leads to gradual internal transformation searching for order in the subconscious.
Ollin is movement. Its profound significance is the intense activity that is present in everything that we as humans are able to comprehend, because nothing in the universe is static, nothing is still in nature. Olinia is what causes everything to move, Ollin means to be alive. Our abuelas and abuelos say that to be at rest is to be dead; because everything that is alive is in constant motion thus creating vibrations. In humans there is physical activity in our organs, (cells, molecules, and atoms), there is activity in the sub conscience and activity is also manifested in the intellect. Activity is produced through our emotions and in our ideas; these faculties are integrated in the Nahuatl word yolli, life. Ollin yoliztli signifies movement and life. In these two words exists an expression that means difrasismo, duality. Ollin is the autonomous activity in most of our organs, related to motriz, the heart. Yolohtli is the heart where pulsations are created which activates the atlachinolli, our blood. In Nahuatl philosophy Ollin represents the vibrations, heat and color that emanate from the sun. In many of the codices a butterfly represents these vibrations, because butterflies are always in constant motion. In Indigenous thought a butterfly in motion represents our thoughts because they are never still.
People born on Ollin are:
–Active and restless.
–Involved in many activities and they conquer all of them.
–Constantly initiating tasks that require great activity without tiring.
–Very creative and excellent companions.
–People that excel because of their innate ability to radiate confidence.
One negative aspect is that they expect others to realize their ideas. They love to travel because they cannot remain still.
