TLAZOLTEOTL PENDANT NECKLACE
Goddess Pendant
Moon Goddess Tlazolteotl is the Aztec pardoner of sins. Fiercely powerful and known as the Eater of Filth, this is who the Aztecs confessed their worst deeds to. They made sacrifices in her honor to receive the purifying and regenerative power of the earth. She is the midwife who, through the decomposition of that which no longer serves us, brings life. She proves that anything that overwhelms and destroys also has the power to heal.
Tlazolteotl is the goddess of spinners and weavers. As such, she is a goddess of fertility and sexuality who connects us to the cycle of creation and the ever-changing powers of the earth. She is also the patroness of illicit affairs and lust.
The Aztecs would not only go to Tlazolteotl and her priestesses for confession and cleansing, but for advice on when to have relations for procreating. This was to ensure good health and longevity of the child to be conceived. She was invoked at births to cleanse babies of their parents’ transgressions. Patroness of midwives, doulas, doctors, nurses, and all other healers, she gifts humanity with herbs and magick and was said to be able to heal those gravely ill and near death.
Tlazolteotl ate the errors of her people to restore them to their true selves. Through destruction and decomposition, she recycles misdeeds in the life-affirming cycle of our lives, destroying with the power to heal and enlighten. Tlazolteotl is that shadow part of ourselves we fear because it is so powerful, but when we work with her energy, we can find absolute mercy and compassion.
“It is time to face your shadow self, those things that have you entangled in toxic shame, guilt, or despair. They can hold you in a place of fear and insecurity and lead you to act in ways that hurt your relationships with yourself and others…”
All my art is made with great intention and prayer to bring you Love, Peace, and Joy.
