Embrace the Power of Coyolxauhqui: July’s Moon Goddess
Hello, beautiful souls.
This July in the 2024 Moon Goddess Diary, we turn our gaze to the heavens and embrace the powerful energy of Coyolxauhqui, a radiant and fascinating Aztec Moon Goddess honoured throughout Mexico. Coyolxauhqui’s (pronounced Coy-yo-shar-ki) story is a testament to resilience and transformation, teaching us how to turn our deepest traumas into our greatest strengths.
Who is Coyolxauhqui?
Coyolxauhqui, whose name means "Painted with Bells," was a revered figure in Aztec mythology. Her story is both dramatic and inspiring. According to legend, Coyolxauhqui’s brother, Huitzilopochtli, brutally killed her and dismembered her body, scattering her pieces across the sky. Her head was cast into the heavens, where it became the moon. This myth symbolises her enduring spirit and her ability to shine brightly despite adversity.
