このコンテンツについて

 This week is all about the Huastec/Aztec goddess, Tlazolteotl. Tlazolteotl is an important deity in the Aztec pantheon, often referred to as the goddess of filth, purification, sexuality, and fertility. Her name roughly translates to "She who is the earth," or "The goddess of filth," with "tlazolli" meaning filth or dirt, and "teotl" meaning god or divine force. She plays a complex role within Aztec mythology, embodying both the destructive and regenerative aspects of life.

Tlazolteotl is associated with purification, particularly related to physical and spiritual cleansing. She helps to remove impurities, including those related to sexuality, sin, and guilt. In Aztec society, it was believed that the goddess could purify individuals who had committed transgressions, particularly through rituals involving confession and atonement.

As a goddess of sexuality and fertility, Tlazolteotl was linked to the power of sexual activity, both in terms of its creation and destruction. She was seen as a protector of sexual relationships, but also as one who could purify and cleanse any associated shame or guilt. This made her a complex figure, embodying the contradictory nature of sexuality as both sacred and profane.

Note: I do realize I pronounced her name 2 different ways throughout the episode! Apologies. Hope you all enjoy this long episode!
