@femmefatalenet | event eleven |  Malinalxochitl through time | 21 Century

Aztec Mythology:  Malinalxochitl -  Goddess and Sorceress of snakes, scorpions and insects of the desert.

 You’ll see her wear reptile jewelry when she passes by you on her way to work as an Entomologist, and you’ll wonder if you just saw her scorpion bracelet move on her wrist. When she sits down at the park bench the birds will stop singing and all the grass snakes, beetles, crickets, frogs and lizards will come out of hiding to bow at her feet.
