Among K'iche' Maya daykeepers, a person born on Tz'i' (Yucatec Ok) is described as loyal, protective and attentive to rules, with the nature of the dog as guardian and faithful companion. The day is associated with authority, law and justice, and in wider Mesoamerican belief the dog guided the souls of the dead across the waters of the underworld.

Daykeepers credit Tz'i' people with faithfulness, friendship, a strong sense of justice and the ability to defend others and to keep order; they are said to make good friends and reliable allies. The challenges traditionally named are a pull towards excess, including sexual excess, and a tendency to be led astray by others; the day is also used for prayers concerning sexual misconduct and its consequences.

In love and friendship Tz'i' people are portrayed as devoted and protective, though they must guard against jealousy and unfaithfulness. In work they are suited to law, justice and administration, guarding and protection, and any role that requires loyalty and order. Prayers on Tz'i' days ask for help in legal matters and disputes; the number of the birth day, as always, shapes how the nawal is read.
