I just got once again from spending a month on Mexico's Yucatan Peninsula. It was an extraordinary outing and I wound up digging into some fascinating things while I was there.
A race of small individuals called Aluxob (the particular is Alux) live in the wildernesses and cenotes of the Yucatan. You accept I am talking about old stories? I am not entirely certain...
I had some individual encounters with one around 4 years prior in my home in Puerto Aventuras (a town on the shoreline in the Riviera Maya) and I needed to dive into the experience somewhat more profound. So I talked with neighborhood Maya to perceive what they needed to state.
Wowser my experience first:
I was living in a decent condominium on the sea and my girl, Sarah, and her Mexican sweetheart, Javier, were remaining with me. Some strange things were occurring in the house.
Amidst the night, I more than once heard somebody shout my name ideal in my ear and it woke me up and for all intents and purposes sent me through the rooftop. Sarah and Javier encountered a similar thing.
The blender and other little apparatuses turned on amidst the night.
While strolling a few doors down, I would feel a slap on my leg simply over the lower leg.
This was odd, yet not very alarming (Except flying out of bed to stop the blender amidst the night. I abhor that adrenaline surge.) The children were encountering all that I was and a few circumstances Javier stated, "You have an alux."
Obviously I didn't consider him important.
Until the impressions showed up in the lobby.
This lobby went to my little girl's room. My room was on the opposite side of the house. When I rose mid one morning and strolled past it, I saw water on the floor the distance down to my little girl's room. I figured Sarah had cleaned up and trickled the distance a few doors down. The floors can be extremely tricky, so I began to go remind her to not trickle water all over, but rather when I ventured into the lobby I saw that it wasn't simply dribbling water, it was modest wet impressions.
"I let you know, you have an alux," said Javier.
Alright. I accepted.
Later I went to a dear companion of mine, Crescent. She is from Canada and furthermore lived in the Riviera Maya in Mexico with her Mayan spouse. They possess a jump shop. I inquired as to whether she knew anything around an alux. She said she didn't however she would ask her better half, William.
"Gracious yes," (Imagine listening to this in a drawn manner) said William.
And after that he continued to tell about how the anglers see the small wet impressions on their water crafts at a young hour in the mornings. Mind you, I had specified nothing about the wet impressions in my lobby.
Alright. So now I am certain an alux is a genuine animal, not only a myth. Be that as it may, what precisely IS an alux?
Enter this latest outing and many meetings.
I found when at first I inquired as to whether they thought about the alux, they were hesitant to state anything. Be that as it may, after I shared my story, they got to be distinctly vivified and extremely open. Some mutual stories of their own and some expressed gratitude toward me for sharing mine. Evidently, even the sharing of stories is viewed as a respectable thing and I was pleased to be a part of that. Additionally, I need to note that I had these discussions in Spanish. The vast majority of these individuals speak Maya. They all capacity day by day in Spanish, and the greater part of them talk restricted English. Talking in Spanish, I accept, was soothing to them and urged them to share all the more unreservedly.
Things I found:
1. Alux experience everywhere throughout the promontory, however for the most part in the wilderness. Not the same number of live in the vacationer ranges of Quintana Roo by the shoreline (generally known as the Riviera Maya). The homesteads and old towns in the inside condition of Yucatan are overflowing with them. They are viewed as the watchmen of the wilderness.
2. They are little individuals, around 18 inches high. I have perused on-line about their capacity to transform into creatures, yet no local people affirmed this. They did, in any case, say that they cover up in the stones and cenotes and some said they can shape-move and really make themselves show up as rocks.
3. More often than not they are imperceptible to us, yet some of the time they are gotten in their regular frame.
4. Whenever inquired as to whether they are soul or human, individuals reacted that they are not one or the other. They are AIR. This is exceptionally intriguing and I am at present attempting to take in more about this. Individuals additionally said they are NATURE or NATURAL. Does this mean they are essential creatures (fire, air, earth, water)? I additionally heard an account of a human shape made from water (called a Kanan Sayab which truly implies watchman of the wilderness but at the same time is viewed as the gatekeeper of the springs) strolling through the remnants at Coba. Goodness... such a great amount to find!
5. They want to play. Here and there the Maya individuals find modest toys went out. In the event that they are not upbeat they toss little stones or at times hit you.
6. In the event that they are glad they will watch your home or ranch (milpa). They can be great and supportive if regarded accurately.
7. Agriculturists fabricate houses for them to keep them in their fields. The alux will protect each of the four corners of the documented and in the event that somebody comes to take anything, they will encompass the criminal so he can't get away.
8. In Costa Rica they are called duende.
9. Extremely COOL STORY. The city of Cancun was building another scaffold quite recently outside the air terminal and it continued crumpling. The nearby Mayans went to the city and revealed to them they had an alux. So the city contracted a Mayan shaman to contact the alux and discover what to do. The alux said it needed a house, so the city manufactured a lovely alux house in the state of a pyramid under the scaffold. At that point they could finish the work on the scaffold. Regardless it stands today without any issues and the pyramid-house is there all lit up around evening time and wonderful for the general public's viewing pleasure as they take off from the airplane terminal and into the shoreline strip in the midst of a furlough.
10. On the off chance that you have an alux in your home and you need it to abandon, you (or ideally a Mayan shaman, called a J-Man) can do a service with herbs and plants (I want to take in more about this) including blazing incense produced using the gum of the copal tree.
I have more inquiries regarding the alux. I have perused they dress like the antiquated Maya. A portion of the general population I met have seen them or have stories of relatives who have seen them. I neglected to ask what they were wearing, however I will backpedal and check whether I can track that down. I additionally need to know more about their inclination. What does it imply that they are AIR?
In my meeting, I likewise heard an account of various creatures called little persons (articulated in the Spanish way nome-es) They were portrayed as being greater than an alux, having horns, having a repulsive nature, conveying blades, making kids hurt each other and contend, wearing dark sombreros, and waiting be ousted by method for a service done including a Bible. I ponder, would they say they are additionally air or would they say they are earth?
We have such a long way to go.
