The Aztec calendar was crucial for organizing agricultural activities, religious ceremonies, and social events, as it intricately linked their cosmology with daily life. Comprising a 365-day solar calendar (tonalpohualli) and a 260-day ritual calendar (xiuhpohualli), it guided the timing of planting and harvesting crops, as well as the observance of various festivals. Additionally, the calendar reflected the Aztecs' understanding of time cycles and their belief in the interconnection between the celestial and terrestrial realms, influencing their worldview and cultural practices.

The Aztec calendar was important to the Aztecs as it guided their agricultural, religious, and social activities. It consisted of two interlocking cycles: the 260-day ritual calendar (Tonalpohualli) and the 365-day solar calendar (Xiuhpohualli). This system allowed them to track time, plan planting and harvesting cycles, and schedule ceremonies and festivals that were essential for appeasing their gods. Additionally, the calendar reflected their cosmology and worldview, reinforcing their cultural identity and societal organization.

Important to who? The Aztecs probably would have thought your calendar was pretty unimportant. The Aztecs themselves considered their calendar extremely important, because it documented the cycles of the world and the powers of the gods. Non-Aztecs consider the Aztec calendar important because it was very sophisticated and accurate for a non-modern society. Accurate in the sense that it kept good time, not in the sense that it made accurate "predictions".
