Mictecacihuatl, Lady of the Dead, is the link between the living and the deceased. She holds our teyollia, the spirit of our personality and our creativity, and purifies it so it can return to the Earth in the shape of a new being. Also called Mictlancihuatl, she is the ruler of the land of the dead. She is honored on Dia de Muertos, and is a manifestation of La Santa Muerte. A work of nahua (or Aztec) tradition.

Mictecacihuatl is the female deity associated with death in many of Mexico's indigenous cultures. In addition to welcoming us into the afterlife, she is the protector of some and the source of countless legends related to the underworld. Learn about her history, her powers, and the fate of those who encounter the powerful lady of Mictlán.

Known as the lady of the dead, the lady who cuts the umbilical cord, or simply the lady of death, Mictecacihuatl is the goddess who rules the other world and to whom some will have to answer sooner or later.

Together with her husband, the lord of death Mictlantecuhtli, Mictecacihuatl welcomes souls who died naturally to Mictlán, to watch over their bones and watch over their sleep for all eternity.

Furthermore, her power extends throughout the land of the dead and even into the world of the living, as she is capable of sending blessings, curses, and messages from her dimension in the afterlife. Of the two rulers of the underworld, Mictecacihuatl seems to be the more flexible of the two deities, as she is the one who gives the deceased permission to return from Mictlán, a gesture that does not go unnoticed on the earthly plane, as the celebration of the dead in pre-Hispanic cultures was an honor to this goddess.

It's important to remember that you can't make a sandwich out of just the sauce

[–] Cowbee@hexbear.net 8 points 2 days ago (1 children)

That's what peanut butter and jelly sandwiches are though, saucewiches

I just tried to advise someone on Reddit against an unsafe course of action using the phrase, "That would kill you." My comment was rejected for "violating Reddit TOS"

I love corporate censorship!!! agony-shivering

"That would be deadly"?

[–] buckykat@hexbear.net 9 points 2 days ago (1 children)

Maybe try getting more specific? Things like "That would turn you into chunky salsa" or "That would make all your limbs fly off in different directions"

[–] Kefla@hexbear.net 8 points 2 days ago

That is pretty much what I did, yeah.

TIL I have "brand recognition" and that "near everyone on Lemmy knows my name." Cool, I guess?

I heard Nazis tend to hide they're Nazis while communists tend to be open about being communists. Why night those two things be?

Absolutely hilarious how Amerikkkans have unbleached Spaniards in their minds.

Second-largest colonial empire of all time.

Sorry fat, we're taking away your kkkrakkker kkkard for being too good at being white. biden-nibble

So that interview went pretty well, and the other place that dropped the ball responded to my follow up about the pause being unlikely to change soon. Sucks, but at least I have closure on it.

In the meantime, if I’m not in college, what are some good ways to do ‘career exploratory’ stuff?

[–] Coolkidbozzy@hexbear.net 9 points 2 days ago

if I were the government I would simply keep funding myself tbh

Absolute evil was amazing, i loved the first good look at absolute joker he was great

Phat Generalz would be a great name for a retro DJ duo. I feel like Aaron Magruder could do a lot with this.

Went to witness a changing of the guard ceremony. It’s literally some guys ending their shift and getting replaced with new guys. Nobody transformed. Total ripoff.

Top of the food chain devouring the competition

Abort misson cause it's the bomb like nuclear fisson

To go against them Communists now that's a bad decision

Cause we steadily droppin shit like a flock of pigeons

So listen as I paddle up your ear canals, torrential

Waters on instrumental, feeding you vitamins and all essentials

Potential's monumental when it comes to hip-hop

Makin the terror stop is like holding back a triceratops

[–] LeninWeave@hexbear.net 7 points 2 days ago

I start posting again on this website.

Intermittent server problems for weeks.

I am too powerful, of course. jeb

I really feel bad for those kids who love to cook so much it becomes they’re whole personality. They love making their friends and family happy with some yummy meals. So they thug it out in the low end kitchens and get treated like absolute garbage by their drunk supervisor. They quit on the spot and then guess what? The next restaurant is the exact fucking same. After multiple firing and quits, they finally get a job at a higher end restaurant and guess what? They still get treated like a teenager with no trust at age 25. Everytime they contact an employer whos offering a higher paid position, they ask them for references to contact, all their references are bunk because every restaurant is trash. These kids dreams are dead.

Anyways I cant wait to start X-ray school next year

spilling my guts loser-style to the interneti will never entertain another romantic relationship where toxic jealousy is an issue, that’s a promise. that shit makes me feel sick and evil just for existing and living my life. if i get a whiff of it and it’s not something that person has done copious previous work on, im fucking out. everyone has their hurts and their trauma that isn’t their fault, i get it, but i will not stick around for this kind.

ha ha no, a text altercation with my most recent ex did not make me cry today at work, why r u asking that?

ah shit sorry. i forgot i promised to quit posting. maybe after this one, i’ll do it for real. fr fr.

Funny how Microsoft sharepoint lets you see files other people worked on, like billing structure document and proposals that get sent out, so i know exactly how much they're charging for work.
