After following the red ant to the mountain of sustenance, Quetzalcoatl went back to Tamoanchan (the realm of the gods) carrying a few kernels of the corn he discovered there. The God's determined it would be a suitable food source for the humans and tasked Quetzalcoatl with bringing them the mountain. He tried lifting and blowing the mountain, but it was too much for him to carry. #quetzalcoatl#maize#mexica#mexicamythology#mexicamyth#aztecgod#aztec#aztecart#aztecmyth#aztecmythology#myth#mythology#occult#occultart#darkart#art https://www.instagram.com/p/B5Gmbp9p8-G/?igshid=1fckmi246dlvg

The story of the discovery of maize. The humans of the newly created Earth needed sustenance. The gods had to find food for them. Eventually, Quetzalcoatl saw a red ant carrying corn. He turned himself into an ant and asked the red ant to take him to where there was corn. He followed the ant to the mountain of sustenance. Going through a small entrance, he discovered the mountain was full of corn #quetzalcoatl#maize#mexica#mexicamythology#mexicamyth#aztecgod#aztec#aztecart#aztecmyth#aztecmythology#myth#mythology#occult#occultart#darkart#art https://www.instagram.com/p/B4WP1PzJxIf/?igshid=13ahx3jeqooj8

After the coronation of Tonatiuh, the new sun had not the energy to move across the the sky. He needed a blood sacrifice, and the God's decided to sacrifice themselves. After Tonatiuh consumed the blood of the gods, he was pushed across the sky by the winds of Quetzalcoatl. #tonatiuh#fivesuns#mexica#mexicamythology#mexicamyth#aztecgod#aztec#aztecart#aztecmyth#aztecmythology#myth#mythology#occult#occultart#darkart#art https://www.instagram.com/p/B3LWhdZJ7Zb/?igshid=186vmxkrnjep8

The story of the fifth sun. Tecciztecatl was supposed to be the fifth sun, but too cowardly to jump into the sacrificial fire. But the humble Nanahuatzin was brave enough and jumped in before Tecciztecatl, becoming Tonatiuh, the fifth sun. From the ashes of the fire, jaguars gained their spots and eagles white feathers were darkened. #nanahuatzin#tonatiuh#fivesuns#mexica#mexicamythology#mexicamyth#aztecgod#aztec#aztecart#aztecmyth#aztecmythology#myth#mythology#occult#occultart#darkart#art https://www.instagram.com/p/B2a4Bn7p4x1/?igshid=vf44n9kavb5k
