Frequently Asked Questions About Numerology
- How is Ah Puch linked to the number 4?
- Through the psychic number of Vedic numerology: the day of the month you were born, reduced to one digit. Each pantheon on this site assigns one god to each number from 1 to 9, and Ah Puch holds 4 in the Mayan Mythology table.
- Is this a traditional Mayan Mythology belief?
- No. The gods and their domains are traditional; pairing them with birth numbers is a modern numerological reading, and it is presented here as reflection rather than doctrine.

- They are two different numbers. This page follows the day of the month; the life path uses your whole date of birth and has its own pages under Numbers.
