Mayan Sign Night

Introduction to the Mayan Sign Night:

Fundamentals of security in all forms are associated with the very core of the Mayan Sign Night. Night highly cares about security and safety, mainly material security. Their immense need for security comes with an emphasis on making sure everything they do is ‘’correct’’ and ‘’safe’’. They want a solid income and the ability to secure the future. Likewise, they need someone responsible, reliable and clear with their intentions and they might not want to just ‘’date’’ or try as many people as possible. Even if they choose to do that as a result of some outer influences, they can end up more frustrated than others and easily feel insecure as a result of broken bonds. Although they’re great romantics and can bring much sweetness, fantasy, and romanticism to the table, they’ll always prefer a lasting, mutually respected, secure relationship over a passionate wild ride. Marriage can serve them greatly and they’ll do everything to make it work.

Another name for Night is ‘’Void’’; the void of possibility and grandeur are the main things meant by this name as Night carries and BECOMES this void during its lifetime. This realm reveals itself with many richnesses it inherits. No need to look outside! This gives Night immense power along with the feelings of security it fundamentally craves. They need to remember the famous quote of “take the first step even if they don’t see the whole stairway.” They need to learn to only rely on their inner secure and solid base every step of the way. Otherwise, not ever-changing or risking anything, they might find themselves dissatisfied with a very secure but dull life of routine lacking liveliness and colour.

Another name for Night is ‘’Home’’, which is very much in line with this sign’s being home-oriented. They like/prefer to spend time at home, taking care of and arranging it to their liking. This can manifest itself as a need to make the actual house more of a home by starting a family, having children, and taking care of everyone in their household. They do it in an order-oriented, quite focused, and organized fashion as they are people of order. They generally form good habits and let go of the bad ones if they happen to acquire any. Having good quality sleep, eating clean, using time wisely, and keeping their schedule uncluttered generally come easy to them and they feel nurtured by this way of existence. They have a sense of discipline and love to be useful too. (After all, the famous discipline-crazy Marlene Dietrich is a Night Day Sign). Paradoxically, they are dreamers whose dreams include a better world for all but their practicality and orientation of security can balance their tendency of getting lost in dreams or excessive daydreaming.

Learning to share is one of their biggest lessons in life. They have a tendency towards not sharing which others might find as stinginess or coldness. This comes from them being true conservatives in their approach to life (Candace Owens and Donald Trump, both of them being Day Sign Night, are quite valid examples). They need to loosen their grip when it comes to hoarding both material and spiritual assets and share their soul, gifts, dreams, feelings, thoughts, money, time, energy, warmth, resources, etc. Resisting change or extreme emphasis on security might lead to a life filled with superficial and formal relationships with no real connection. Their depth can come to their rescue since depth and superficial security cannot coexist.  They can use their introspectiveness and depth to first open themselves up to feeling their own softness, warmth, and desires so that they can offer those to life and people.

Psychological Qualities of the Mayan Sign Night:

Nights are serious people and if not kept in check, this can result in being rigid even towards their own feelings. Emotional involvement is a thing they need to work on. Another trait to watch out for is a tendency towards being gloomy even when there’s no apparent reason. It comes from the darkness they fear they carry as their Day Sign name obviously suggests. This heavy melancholy overtaking them sometimes is also another byproduct of being a serious person. They need to learn not to take life too seriously. Choosing a partner who can balance them in this regard might be a good short-cut.

They are the bringers of dawn and dawn is another name for this Sign, as Mayans mention. They can bring the fresh light of dawn to any place and situation when they find themselves confronted with the dark aspects of life. Indeed, one of their very reasons for existence is finding that hidden light in the darkness and bringing it to the surface, hence, actually, more than confronting darkness accidentally, they need to intentionally go into the darkness to come out of it both more enriched, enlightened, fearless and also more useful as the bringers of dawn that they already are. That’s why they shouldn’t be tricked by their Sign’s name being ‘’Night’’ or by the darkness that they feel themselves, others and situations contain and instead, always focus on what kind of light might be hidden in that very darkness.

Nights can work in professions combining their talent of thoroughly applying the most tangible and practical tools with their highly developed spiritual side. This can make them a sort of healer. Osho is an example of this sign’s trait of combining spirituality with a very practical, solid approach, who is a Night with the Mayan Tone 8. Thanks to their serious, orderly, and conservative nature, they are also very suitable for professions and environments requiring order, rules, and a strict formality where hierarchy and status quo run the show. Whatever field they are in, they will be easily respected and people will follow their rules and orders because Night people have that luck when it comes to being respected.

Examples of Night:

Gal Gadot, Jim Caviezel, Billy Crudup, Austin Butler, Jack Nicholson, Florence Pugh
