Aztec Calendar

Picture

 Find out who you are and who you might become, according to Aztec and Mayan cosmology.
"The elemental forces ruling over your day strongly characterize your personality and your destiny."


Aztec Cosmology

Aztec cosmology was deeply dualistic, structured by complementary forces: night and day, life and death, fire and water, man and woman, mountain and ocean, future and past. These were reconciled in the supreme Duality, Ometeotl, and in the god-hero Quetzalcoatl, whose name can be rendered Precious Twin, as well as Feathered Serpent, and whose bird-snake symbols united sky and earth.


Ronald Wright, Stolen Continents, p. 33

Conception of Cyclical Time

[...]
We, modern people, at the same time fanatics and victims of a linear timeline and irreparable progress,
cannot accept with all its consequences the vision of a cyclical timeline.  In the case of the Aztecs, the idea
of the return of time had its roots in a feeling of culpability.  The time of the beginning, when it returned,
assumed the form of a reparation.
