I've posted this before, but it may need to be revisited:

This is a diagram of the four TEOTL for the day and what part of the body they govern:

TONALLI {Shadow Soul}: [patron of the day] the heat/matte amber or gold

TEYOLLIA {Spirit Soul}: [number of the day] energy around the heart/green

NAHAUL{lord of the night}: animal spirit/blue

IHIYOTL {trecena}: essence or divine breath/ red

Hi oc posting to share THAT I MADE THIS. This is my first PROPER time animating and I'm so proud of myself. Shown is Tonalli (he/him) basically on his death bed after the calamity that destroyed his kingdom. I've been wanting to do this for so long and finally found the motivation for it !!!!!

Below cut is the gif version :-)

An extra credit assignment done for my Mesoamerican Art History class :]

—¿Qué es morir? —Morir es Alzar el vuelo Sin alas Sin ojos Y sin cuerpo.

What is dying? —To die is to take flight Without wings Without eyes Without a body.
