Lamat – Mayan Glyph of Venus

by mikonmark on December 2, 2009

Mayan calender symbol for Venus, Lamat(pronounced la mot). The Maya word “lamat” is associated with abundance, ripeness, fertility and growth.  The glyph
itself is the Mayan symbol for the planet Venus. The Maya linked the cycle of the planet Venus with death and rebirth (Venus appears as the Evening Star, disappears, then reappears as the Morning Star), and with the spirit of growth and vitality.

This is one of twenty Mayan Solar symbols of their celestial calender.  Which one resonates with you?
