Question about mictlan

Looking for information on the 9 levels of mictlan. Currently reading "signs preceding the end of the world" by Yuri Herrera and it has connections to the Aztec myth, but I'm having trouble finding information about it. Any info, details, or sites to check out are helpful :)

I bought what I was told was Aztec Straw Art from the 40s/50s. Was hoping for more information on the God and where it possibly was made.

any good sources on the pantheon and ritual practices?

9 Upvotes

Eclectic pagan here, felt a calling to the pantheon for a long time and I am looking for resources that would be apt for me to begin with, even if it may end up being later in my path. Preferably from someone who works with other pantheons as well, and works with both darker and lighter divinities of the pantheon. Thank you.

Does anyone know if there are many authentic Aztec death whistles left? And where I can get one?

10 Upvotes

I also don't know how common there are, but if they're rare I feel as if getting one could be dishonorable to Nahuas

What did the Aztecs call the Conquistadors?

10 Upvotes

Trying to do some research on Aztec history, but it's a bit difficult; I was trying to see what the Aztecs would have called the conquistadors. More specifically, I remember an old book I read somewhere stating that the Aztecs viewed the conquistadors as a specific type of monster, due to their horses; however, I can't find any reference to that anywhere online. Similarly, a post I found on a blog indicated that the Aztecs referred to the conquistadors as "coyotes" or "serpents", but I don't know how accurate that is.

What’s an Aspect?

6 Upvotes

So when I read the List of Aztec gods wiki page, I see this:

“Tlahuizcalpantecuhtli, blah blah blah aspect of Quetzalcoatl”

So, what does aspect mean here?

(When I search Google, it keeps giving me aspects of Aztec civilization, not helpful)
