Begochidi
Begochidi or Begochiddy is a Navajo trickster God
Begochidi was the son of the sun. The sun committed adultery with everything in the world. This was how so many monsters were born. After this, the sun was put a way off so that could not happen again. But as the sun came up he touched a flower which became pregnant and gave birth to be’gochidi. He was the youngest son of the sun, and the sun spoiled him. He was put in control of many things, such as game and domestic animals. He was a berdache and the first pottery maker.
He could also move about invisibly and change into different forms at will: a rainbow, wind, sand, water, etc. He was named be’gochidi because he would make himself invisible and sneak up on young girls to touch their breasts, shouting “be’go, be’go” (breast). He especially annoyed men who were hunting. When a hunter had taken aim and was ready to shoot, be’gochidi would sneak up behind them, grab their testicles, and shout “be’go.” This spoiled the hunter’s aim every time. The worst was when a man and a woman lay down to have intercourse. He was always touching one or the other and shouting “be’go.”
