Chicchan and Ix Mayan compatibility

What works

Chicchan (Serpent) and Ix (Jaguar) come out at 89% Mayan compatibility. These are analog day signs — their numbers add up to 19, the pair the Mayan oracle reads as company and mutual support.

The trade is the first thing you notice: Chicchan brings life force, desire and a whole-body kind of honesty, and Ix brings a nose for what nobody says out loud and a strength that makes no noise. Their elements pull in different directions, and that is where most of the daily friction comes from.

It is no accident that it fits: what Chicchan needs is nobody asking them to turn the intensity down as if it were a flaw, and what Ix needs is territory of their own and nobody asking where they have been. Their colour families are neighbours: they understand each other, even though each comes in through a different door.

Those born under Chicchan possess intense charisma and natural healing abilities. Their vital energy is powerful and magnetic, capable of mesmerizing and healing others. Like the serpent that sheds its skin, they have an innate capacity for radical transformation. Those born under Ix are spiritual warriors, intuitives, and protectors of the natural world. They possess an innate shamanic power and a deep connection to the earth's magic. Like the jaguar, they move silently between the visible and invisible worlds.

Where they get stuck

Neither of them fails out of malice; they fail out of habit. Chicchan: when something moves inside, everything outside gets knocked over. Ix: disappears without explanation and comes back as if nothing happened.

Jealousy, possessiveness, tendency toward manipulation, difficulty controlling intense emotions. Excessive secrecy, difficulty trusting, tendency toward isolation, manipulative use of power.

At 89% overall, the weakest point of this pair is the conversation (88 out of 100): that is where Chicchan and Ix will have to say more out loud to end up in the same place.

As a couple

As a couple they score 90 out of 100. Chicchan loves the way they do everything else, and so does Ix — which is the whole point.

When the bond is looked after, Chicchan stops silently waiting nobody asking them to turn the intensity down as if it were a flaw and Ix finally dares to ask territory of their own and nobody asking where they have been.

Working on something together

As a team they score 91 out of 100. Chicchan and Ix deliver when each of them owns their own half and nobody corrects the other’s work halfway through.

Intense charisma, healing power, transformation capacity, passion, sensual magnetism, body wisdom. Shamanic power, intuition, nature connection, silent strength, mystique, spiritual protection.

The natural split is clear: Chicchan takes care of moving your body and getting the stuck thing out, and Ix of moving quietly toward what you want.

How they talk

Talking, they score 88 out of 100, and that number says more about the silences than about the words. Chicchan and Ix do not argue about the subject: they argue about the pace.

A simple deal helps: when Chicchan needs to say it now and Ix needs to think it over, say half of it today and the other half tomorrow.

Each other’s days

Every thirteen days the Tzolk’in puts an Chicchan day and a Ix day back on the calendar, and you can feel it. On Chicchan days, work with your vital energy. Ideal for kundalini practices, yoga, dance, or any activity that activates your body and releases stagnant energy. On Ix days, connect with earth magic. Ideal for nature walks, shamanic rituals, crystal meditation, and working with sacred plants.

For this pair, Chicchan (Serpent) days are good for moving your body and getting the stuck thing out, and Ix (Jaguar) days for moving quietly toward what you want.

What to actually do

This is one of those bonds that runs almost without instructions. Translated into something you can do this week:

Chicchan: look your habit in the eye — when something moves inside, everything outside gets knocked over. — and say out loud that you need nobody asking them to turn the intensity down as if it were a flaw. Ix: ask territory of their own and nobody asking where they have been before it piles up, not afterwards. Both of you: Chicchan and Ix get better the day you stop handing out blame and start handing out tasks.
