Finished my longest water fast yet - due to bad math I thought it was going to be 36 hours, but turned out to be 40.
Vivid dreams returned last night and ketp flu hit bad this morning, so I ended the fast with gentle protein. Was spiritually rewarding, fruitful, and challenging.
Yesterday the month of Toxcatl ended, and the confessionary is closed again for another year, which was the occasion for the fast.

My confession-taking practice is in honor of Tlazolteotl, She Who Devours Our Transgressions, the Great Mother always listening, hearing, healing. It's also in honor of my ancestors, all of whom took too much with them to the grave.

311 followers · 343 posts · Server mas.toPart of my ancestor and devotional practice for the past 3 years has been to provide a pagan/polytheist confessionary, now open for 20 days annually and inspired by a historical tradition. Starting today, it's open!
You don't need to worship my Gods, it's open to anyone who needs it, and who can participate respectfully.

I'll be giving up meat, alcohol, caffeine, THC, snacking and takeout, and focusing on whole, simple foods prepared at home.

So I made a wiki: http://amoxtli.teochan.org/

*Not His birthday per se, but it *is* funny to think that He has a birthday every 20 days.

I have a book about #Malinche with this painting by Alfredo Ramos Martínez from 1940, and I've begun to use her as the face of all my women ancestor workings since I don't have any good photos of my great-grandmothers. I set up a small little shrine for my first #MothersNight last night, using the book, lighting a candle, and offering some cranberry beer.
CW for eye contact.

115 followers · 151 posts · Server mas.toJust getting this out there before the idea has much of a chance to take root here, but:
#Ometeotl is not a God, it is not even a historical #Aztec #Mexica concept. It is a word invented in the #ColonialEra to try and get the Nahuas to warm up to #monotheism. #Omeyocan, "Place of Duality" exists, but it is home to two named deities, #Omecacihuatl and #Ometecuhtli. Ometeotl might be used in liturgy to refer to creation, but it is not a thing to pray to.
