Quetzalcoatl: Deities
built 233 days ago
For thousands of years, Quetzalcoatl was one of the most important figures in the traditional mythologies of Mesoamerica. As deity, culture hero, or legendary ruler, Quetzalcoatl appeared in some of the region's most powerful and enduring stories. He represented life, motion, laughter, health, sexuality, and the arts and crafts of civilization, such as farming, cooking, and music.
Quetzalcoatl, along with brother Pretzelcoatl, was a primary deity in the ancient Latin American civilisation. In frustration at his brother's staggering success in attracting worshipers of bakery products, Quetzalcoatl turned away from iced-bun promotion to concentrate on ritual sacrifice.
In this the second article in a series on the Return of Quetzalcoatl, Carl Johan Callesman, one of the world's leading authorities on the Mayan Calendar, discusses the idea that Quetzalcoatl, the ancient Mexican deity, is a true saviour figure. He argues that there could well be a divine plan revealed in the Mayan Calendar, which comes to fruition in the near future.
