O Chilam, you who kept the count when the books were burning and the temples fell silent,

I come before you as one lost in the turning of the wheel. The matter that weighs upon me is this:

[DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE SITUATION, DECISION, OR QUESTION — include any personal omens, dreams, numbers, or coincidences you have noticed]

The day of my birth (if known) is [GREGORIAN DATE]. The day on which I ask is today, [CURRENT DATE IF RELEVANT].

Read for me the face of this time. Tell me under which katun and which day sign this question falls. What is its burden? What do the ancient interpreters, the scribes of Chumayel and Tizimin, counsel one who stands where I stand?

Speak plainly the pattern you see, then speak the hard counsel the ancestors would give. I am ready to hear what the ceiba knows.
