Hiiii! I was wondering if you have any resources for Mesoamerican mythology that’s good? Can be a website or book or anything really. Trying (desperately) to reconnect with my culture.
Hi!! So, so sorry for not answering sooner, but life happened lol. I’m struggling finding resources myself, considering that many were destroyed (thanks to colonization), or they were traditionally shared orally within our cultures. Some of the best resources I’ve found are often anthropology and history books, but I highly recommend doing research into the authors as well, and determine for yourself whether you trust them or not. From my own personal list here some:
Books:
Aztec & Maya: The Complete Illustrated History by Charles Phillips
The Oxford World Mythology by David Leeming
Mythology: Myths and Legends of the World by Dr. Alice Mills
Goddess Stories: Discover their mythology by Alison Davies (Has some Aztec and Native American goddesses, a Brazilian one too!)
Deck:
The Nahualli Animal Oracle Deck by Caelum Raineri and Ivory Andersen
YouTube:
Websites:
It’s a small list, but I hope it helps! I’ll also be doing some more digging and try making more posts about the gods of the Mexica :)
WOOOO
