Background Information

Research is a very valuable part of any endeavor or undertaking, whether for developing a business plan, managing a household and especially in building and maintaining deep abiding relationships. So, as part of this blog I will be presenting some of my research between posts and my hope is that this information will also provide a deeper insight into the nature of the human or inhuman heart.

Here's a listing of some of the gods and goddesses of the Mayan culture that I will be referencing:

Itzamná was the god of All
Kinich Ahau was god of the Sun
Chac was the god of Rain
Yum Kaax was the god of Corn
Kukulcán was the god of Wind (My favorite)
Ek Chuah was the god of War
Xaman Ek was the god of the North Star
Ix Chel was the goddess of Childbirth
Ix Tab was the goddess of Suicide (Wonder why this one is female?)
Ah Puch was the god of Death
Manik was the god of Human Sacrifice
Bolontiku was the god of the Lower World
Quetzalcoatl, the feathered serpent and Tezcatlipoca were the creators of the Mayan's.

I'll post more about why Kukulcán is my favorite at a later date. Till then, stay in peace and stay in the now.
