Today is the day of Nahui Malinalli (four herb) from approximately 6:45pm on Aug 29 to approximately 6:45pm on Aug 30.
Malinalli (herb) is our umbilical cord and the constant regeneration of nature. All the green plants, trees, etc. are all medicinal if used wisely. Malinalli is symbolic of strong roots, rebirth in nature, resurgence, self-polishing, cycle of renewal, and determination. Malinalli teaches us how to transform by the self-evaluation of our attitudes and actions so that we can understand our behavior and accomplish our goals. It's important that we learn how to become like a plant; self-sufficient and grow/expand when necessary.
The patron of this day is Pantecatl, one of the lords of medicinal herbs and fermented drinks, especially aguamiel, which is taken from the heart of the maguey and becomes fermented pulque. Pantecatl promotes learning of the healing properties of plants.
Malinalli refers to all those things that change and cyclically renew. It is an herb that dries and disappears so as to integrate with the soil and; then, it reappears filling the green in a new cycle. It is a propitious day for medicine and healing. Today grants good energy to start treatments and to reach health (Gutierrez). So be sure to drink medicinal herbal teas and eat plenty of plant based foods, for food is medicine.
This day also signifies tenacity, rejuvenation, that which cannot be uprooted forever. Malinalli is a day for persevering against all odds, like the weeds that penetrate, crack, and grow through concrete. It's a good day for creating alliances that will survive the test of time. It is also a good day for those who are suppressed, a bad day for their suppressors (Voorburg).
Have a beautiful tonalli (day) everyone!
