Ixchel, Mayan Goddess-The Divine Feminine

Ixchel is the Mayan goddess of fertility, birth and health. Also called the weaver in the world, was depicted as a young queen giver of life, or as an old wise . Aligning with it is to align with the feminine ,the moon ,fertility and the power of the healing is a gift of women. She has also been depicted as an earth and war goddess, and a rain goddess.

Just an observation but I find it interesting that she is also associated with a knot in the very same way that Isis/Auset is associated with the knot. Coincidence?

From left to right; Aztec goddesses Chalchiuhtlicue, Tlalzolteotl, Xochiquetzal, Coyoxauhqui, and the Mayan Ixchel at the bottom. (She’s not a triple moon goddess and much of Thalia’s information about gods can be wrong, but I love her art.)

Inktober Week in review:

15. Artemisia I of Caria

16. AEthelflaed

17. Lady K'abel (she doesn’t have a wikipedia page! She needs one, tumblr.)

18. Elizabeth I

19. Rani Lakshmibai of Jhansi

I included Wikipedia links on the names not because Wikipedia is always the best source, but because it’s a great place to start finding out about historical figures (the citations are a great way to find good source material). Also, if anyone who reads them his more accurate info they can edit the page.
