I just found an Etsy seller with post card of Tecciztecatl on a bike. It’s so niche. I love it.

Off topic but why did this remind me to go work on my crow project

YOOOYOOOO YOOOOO

ECHOES OF TIME...

Tezcatlipoca my androgynous bisexual polyamorous icon

"Although Sahagún never witnessed the Toxcatl rite, he described it at length in his encyclopedic Florentine Codex, in which he included his Aztec informants’ vivid description of the ideal victim’s physical appearance...I will argue not only that the young Aztec impersonator was chosen for his androgynous appearance but also that, during the events leading up to the moment of his death, his gender—but not his sex—was symbolically feminized to the point where he transcended the male-female binary altogether. The impersonator’s increasingly ambiguous gender, in other words, served as a visual sign of his association with, and ultimate transformation into, the god himself

D-does this mean Tezcatlipoca nonbinary??????

Sorry y’all I died again

Random Aztec mythos headcanons because why not

• The moon (Tecciztecatl) controls the tides because the Tlaloques begged Acuecueyotl/Chalchiuhtlicue to give him a job so that he wouldn’t feel useless. Also because they wanted their “brother” to stay in Tlalocan.

• Xolotl could absolutely devour a chicken salad BLT. I have no evidence for this. He just seems like a BLT guy.

• Tezcatlipoca drops into the animal baby voice when he thinks no one is around.

• Nanahuatzin is undiagnosed autistic because he kinda reminds me of lil undiagnosed me when I didn’t understand why I never really fit in :(

• Quetzalcoatl created Olms (olm pic for reference) and Xolotl hated them so much for copying his style that he put them all in Europe.

• Tonatiuh and Huitzilopochtli flip a coin on who wants to drive the sun that day

• Tecciztecatl is just the dad and dog meme with the moon rabbit

It’s definitely a learning process! When I first started I HATED it. Turns out I just hated using a stylus lmao (yes I’m a finger user fight me)

I writhe in jealousy over digital artists for they can do what I cannot
