Ik (Iq’) The Breath of Life: Signifies wind, moon, crisis. It is the
nawal of the element of air and the moon, of the spirit of human existence. It is a day for the removal of negative energy and illnesses. It is the wind which sweeps clean our house and our body. It also signifies a hurricane, cleansing, purification, breath, and sexual obsession. Upon this day we ask for the strength, the vitality, and the commitment to carry on in our chosen work. This is a day for the removal of negative energy and illnesses; in terms of healing, it favors the resolution of psychological problems, especially those which arise from angry emotional states.
The number 9 is an extremely positive one, even though it is an odd number. It is often used for ritual purposes. Inscriptions surviving from Classic times (200 – 900 CE) indicate that 9 was the day most favored for the timing of coronations and other important ceremonies. 9 is often called “the number of life” because it represents the process of human gestation; there are nine months of human development prior to birth. Because of this, the number 9 is especially associated with women, particularly since the 260-day cycle is comprised of nine lunar months. Some Mayan teachers have pointed out that in their traditional culture there are nine steps in the construction of a house and nine stages to growing and harvesting crops. There are also 9 Lords of the Underworld, but this is not necessarily the astrological significance of 9, a number whose symbolism is overwhelmingly positive.

Ik - North
Symbolism:
The Mayan name
Ik (eek) means wind, breath, and life, suggesting a concept like "the breath of life". The glyph for this day-sign, which usually included a "T" design, had associations with a god of rains as well as wind. Rains are needed to germinate seeds and stimulate life, and this "coming to life" may be the meaning the Maya intended.
Personality:
Ik types are communicative, mental, agile, clever, and multifaceted. They have a tendency to do many things, to be a "jack of all trades but master of none." They tend to be idealistic and romantic, fashion-conscious or artistic, and somewhat non-committal or indecisive. They seem to have problems with issues of responsibility, obligation, and commitment, these being their greatest challenges. Ik types are thinking constantly, and this characteristic intrudes upon their awareness of the intense emotional realities within and around them. To others, they seem very much alive and alert. To themselves, they feel confused and uncertain as to the specific information on which they should act. Learning, speaking, reading, and other forms of metal communication appeal to them. Not a few Ik have tried their hand at writing in one form or another. A conversation with one born on this day-sign is always interesting and stimulating. However, breadth, not depth, is their forte. Wind types are clever and very intelligent when it comes to learning. They enjoy playing many roles in life but do not seek out leadership positions, in fact, service seems to come more easily to them.
Challenge:
To deal with fears about responsibility and obligations, to accept commitments; to learn to be decisive.
Solution:
To seek education; to gain mastery of language and vebal expression. Ik
1-Ix
Beneath the 1-Ix surface personality is a challenged communicator, a person who struggles with self control, a person who is an explorer of the human condition. Critical events occurring in Ix peoples lives, such as deaths or other powerful transformations, my cause them to turn inward and keep their feeling and thoughts to themselves. People born during Ix trecena need to be realistic about responsibilities and not shirk from them or take on too many.
G-8 (South)
Those born here tend to have over simulated minds and are often obsessive talkers, in some cases being counselors or psychologists. They are complex people who learn to face the inner world and who know how to get to the center of things.
They are drawn to the deeper, darker sides of life, and are sometimes caught up in struggles with negative thoughts, their own or those of others. This tendency means a G-8 might choose a career as a psychotherapist or an investigator. This type reacts to stimuli very quickly, perhaps over-reacting some of the time.
G-8 people are very clever, quick of mind, and fast on their feet. This facility may be a boon in situations where decisiveness is valued, but it can cause trouble under more controlled conditions. Their need to talk is strong, and their powerful intellect is best used for research or investigation.
One of their challenges is that they need to learn how to study effectively. In addition they need to be physically active by walking, running, or riding. The planet Mercury, the sign of Gemini, and an emphasized ninth house are commonly found in the charts of those born here.
