The Mayan culture probably arose from the Olmec about 500 B.C. reaching a peak from<br />

400 to 1000 A.D. The Spanish conquest of 1500 A.D. led to their gradual destruction<br />

traces being found in Guatemala until 1700 A.D.<br />

The Mayan supreme god is Hunab-ku. He was connected with the intricate astrological<br />

and astronomical cycles. Quetzalcoatl, the serpent-god was related to the cosmic mandala<br />

and the quadrature of the circle.<br />

The Tree of Life was in the centre (representing the Aries-Libra axis of the zodiac). The<br />

arms of the mandala were symbolized by four crocodiles. (These symbolize the Egyptian<br />

Sebek or crocodile-god of Egypt who is Saturn, ruler of Capricorn.)<br />

There is a 22-rung ladder (corresponding to the 22 major cards of the Tarot) which<br />

represents the sevenfold divisions of the physical, astral and mental planes and their<br />

source of origin (3 x 7 = 21, + 1 =22).<br />

The Sun time periods are:<br />

1). 676 (13 x 52)<br />

3). 312 (13 x 24)<br />

2). 364 (13 x 28)<br />

4). 676 (13 x 52)<br />

The Number System of the Aztecs<br />

Each period - year, month, week and day had a planetary god ruler. The week had 13<br />

days and there were 20 signs for the days so that the complete cycle took 260 days called<br />

the tonalpohualli. Each year was identified by one of four signs and 13 numbers, giving a<br />

cycle of 52 years, which is the Aztec century. At the end of the 52 year cycle all fires<br />

were extinguished and relit.<br />

The four year signs are:<br />

North - Tecpatl<br />

South - Tochtli<br />

East - Acatl<br />

West - Calli<br />
