When at first Tonatiuh was unable to move in the sky Tlahuizcalpantecuhtli, the Lord of Venus, became frustrated and aimed a spear at the sun. He missed, But Tonatiuh retaliated with a spear that struck Tlahuizcalpantecuhtli in the head turning him into Itztlacoliuhqui, the god of obsidian and frost. #tlahuizcalpantecuhtli#itztlacoliuhqui#tonatiuh#fivesuns#mexica#mexicamythology#mexicamyth#aztecgod#aztec#aztecart#aztecmyth#aztecmythology#myth#mythology#occult#occultart#darkart#art https://www.instagram.com/p/B3x61gGJEdG/?igshid=zeok6a336as8

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

The story of the moon. Not wanting to be embarrassed by Nanahuatzin, Tecciztecatl jumped into the sacrificial fire after him, causing two suns to rise. The Earth became unbearably hot and bright, so Tlahuizcalpantecuhtli threw a rabbit at Tecciztecatl, dimming his brilliance so that he could only be seen in the night. He became the moon. #tecciztecatl#tlahuizcalpantecuhtli#moongod#fivesuns#mexica#mexicamythology#mexicamyth#aztecgod#aztec#aztecart#aztecmyth#aztecmythology#myth#mythology#occult#occultart#darkart#art https://www.instagram.com/p/B2p2InIgln3/?igshid=tzt2viccspm6

When the gods announced their sacrifice Tonatiuh, one amongst them, Xolotl tried to escape fate. Running from Quetzalcoatl, he hid first as a crop of corn, then as a maguey plant, then as an axolotl. He was then caught and sacrificed by Quetzalcoatl #xolotl#axolotl#quetzalcoatl#fivesuns#mexica#mexicamythology#mexicamyth#aztecgod#aztec#aztecart#aztecmyth#aztecmythology#myth#mythology#occult#occultart#darkart#art https://www.instagram.com/p/B3gEAoNg48y/?igshid=mp0ygrpr9ecc

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 third sun. Tlaloc was chosen to be the third sun. During his time as the sun, Tezcatlipoca seduced Tlaloc's wife, Xochiquetzal. In his grief, Tlaloc refused to do any of his duties, throwing the world into a drought. When the people begged for rain, an annoyed Tlaloc sent a rain of fire that burned away the world. #tlaloc#raingod#tezcatlipoca#thesmokingmirror#fivesuns#mexica#mexicamythology#mexicamyth#aztecgod#aztec#aztecart#aztecmyth#aztecmythology#myth#mythology#occult#occultart#darkart#art https://www.instagram.com/p/B2IF5f3JUP6/?igshid=4zl20s1jtp2f

The story of the second sun. Quetzalcoatl was chosen to be the sun of the second creation. The people of the Earth didn't show proper reverence to the God's, so Tezcatlipoca turned them into monkeys. In frustration, Quetzalcoatl caused winds to blow them all away. #tezcatlipoca#thesmokingmirror#quetzalcoatl#fivesuns#mexica#mexicamythology#mexicamyth#aztecgod#aztec#aztecart#aztecmyth#aztecmythology#myth#mythology#occult#occultart#darkart#art https://www.instagram.com/p/B2DGXJKJ3vv/?igshid=etb26fgrf9ap

An alternate version of the sun myth. The Earth goddess Coatlicue was impregnated by a ball of feathers. Her pregnancy angered her daughter, Coyolxauhqui, who plotted to kill her. But Huitzilopochtli burst from his mother fully grown and radiant, and defended her from his sister. He decapitated Coyolxauhqui and threw her head into the sky where it became the moon. To this day, the Sun (Huitzilopochtli) and the moon chase each other in the sky. #huitzilopochtli#coyolxauhqui#coatlique#xiuhcoatl#sungod#fivesuns#mexica#mexicamythology#mexicamyth#aztecgod#aztec#aztecart#aztecmyth#aztecmythology#myth#mythology#occult#occultart#darkart#art https://www.instagram.com/p/B27UxBmJj5D/?igshid=uuf165urqubs
