Methodology — The Analytical Framework of the Maya Logic System (MLS)
The Methodology section of the Jo Nagamine’s Maya Logic System (MLS) defines the
rules, structures, and analytical techniques that transform the philosophical principles into reproducible and practical methods.
While the ancient Tzolkin calendar reflects Maya observations on human cognition, behavior, and life cycles,
MLS reconstructs its logic into a modern, systematic analytical framework.
The methodology is organized into two foundational pillars:
Fundamentals — Decoding the Personal Blueprint
Understanding the constitutional structure of a person’s energy
The first pillar focuses on the timeless components of the Tzolkin and contextualizes them as a coherent model for personal analysis.
MLS reorganizes the following universal elements:
- NAWAL (Day Sign): Your archetype — the root pattern of talents, perception, and behavioral tendencies.
- Number: The quality and direction through which your NAWAL expresses itself.
- Trecena (13-day theme): The broader life narrative that shapes your purpose and long-term orientation.
- Annual Energies (Calendar Round / Lord of Year): The long-range environmental and social frameworks that influence your role.
The objectives of the Fundamentals are:
- To define what energetic structure a person was born with
- To show how this structure manifests across life stages
- To clarify how strengths can be amplified and challenges stabilized

▪ Maya Energy Analysis for Individuals — Foundations & Advanced Applications
Daily Energy — Translating Time into Action
A structured method for converting daily energies into actionable strategy
The second pillar focuses on interpreting the energy of any given day and redesigning it into practical behavioral guidance.
The hallmark of MLS is its unique algorithm
“Personal Tzolkin Integration”,
which converts the universal calendar into a personalized daily strategy.
This pillar systematizes:
- Symbolic interpretation of NAWAL and Number:
(simplified entry points for beginners using two-character symbolic keywords) - The Four-Stage Growth Framework (Red–White–Blue–Yellow):
A 65-day transformational cycle for project flow and behavioral rhythm. - The Personal Tzolkin Algorithm:
Linking birth-energy with daily-energy to determine strategic positioning. - Logical parallels with Eastern calendrical systems (Phase Theory):
demonstrating the universality and reproducibility of the method.

The Role of Methodology in the MLS System
Methodology functions as the operational engine of the entire MLS ecosystem.
It provides the procedures that convert philosophy into structured analysis and concrete action.
Through this chapter, the following become clear:
- The connection from Principles → Analysis → Applications
- The cognitive lenses required for reliable interpretation
- Techniques for linking personal essence with temporal energy
- Frameworks for turning analysis into consistent decision-making
The strength of MLS—
reproducibility regardless of who performs the analysis
—comes directly from this methodological clarity.
Methodology is therefore the core engine of the system.
What Methodology Enables
- Self-understanding backed by consistent logic
- Daily behavioral decision-making with directional coherence
- Improved relational awareness and interaction skills
- Application to team dynamics and organizational flow
- Practical use of the Personal Tzolkin system
Principles serve as the conceptual foundation,
Methodology serves as the operational system,
and Applications reveal the real-world value of MLS.
