☽︎Sky and Signs

Cuauhtli, eagle

Sign 15 of the twenty in the tonalpohualli. Direction: west. Patron after the Codex Borgia: Xipe Tótec.

The eagle, the bird of the sun and of the eagle warriors.

The next Cuauhtli days

In the Maya count: Tz'ikin / Men.

The "Aztec horoscopes" that describe the character of each sign are mostly modern: the old sources give no personality profiles by sign. So this page has only what the sources say: the name, its meaning, the direction and the patron, which also varies between the codices.
