"When Spanish friars demanded that the Aztecs destroy their gods, the priests replied, enigmatically, 'our gods are already dead'."

The Teteoh are so fucking metal.

When Tlaozolteol presents the beheaded corn snake, a metaphor for desire - She is showing us its sacredness. Even the corn snake bleeds the sacred fluid.

In opening the snake, She reveals its inner divinity.

In opening the snake, She makes us and our desires whole.
