Los mexicas eran grandes observadores del cielo, así fue como crearon leyendas para los movimientos de los astros. A la luna

Pitao Cocijo Pitao Cocijo is the Zapotec equivalent to Tlaloc, the Central Mexican Lord of the Rain. Pitao, which translates as “divine” or “sacred,” is roughly equivalent to the Nahuatl Teotl, which is a word used to denote a divinity. In Mesoamerican spiritual tradition, all things are one thing, Ometeotl, and the “gods” are nothing more than manifestations of Ometeotl on the plane of being. Ometeotl can take on the mask of Cocijo (Tlaloc), say, and become the rain, or Cozobi (Centeotl) and become the corn. Yet both corn and rain are one thing and one thing only, temporary manifestations of Ometeotl. Thus the name Pitao links the divinity to Ometeotl and the divine force. In Mesoamerica, the mountains are conceived of as hollow vessels, like clay jugs. Within the hollow mountains is Tlalocan, The Place of Mist, the paradise where water is stored, and where the souls of all living beings await reincarnation. There, Tlaloc, or Cocijo, watches over the souls of men and women awaiting rebirth, and there the souls of all the seeds await their rebirth on Tlalticapac, the earth, as well. Tlalocan is a paradise, where the souls of those who die watery deaths; who drown, are hit by lightning which Cocijo/Tlaloc controls, or who die of gout or cancer, find their rest. In Tlalocan there are four jugs of water, each representing the four directions. These jugs hold water that is pure and clean, brings mildew and death to the corn, represents drought and therefore a lack of rain, or brings floods and plagues of vermin to the corn. His servants, the Tlaloque, who are four dwarfs who wear his mask, emerge from the mountain riding on the back of Cloud Serpents, and they pour the water from one of the four vessels onto the thirsty earth below, bringing the destiny of the particular vessel. In the painting, Cocijo wears his mask with goggle eyes and serpent tongue. His eyebrows are clouds, and in his headdress is a large “water” glyph, from which emerges a crown of quetzal feathers, to denote his preciousness. He carries a jar, from which a maize flower emerges, for without him there is no corn and therefore only famine and death. On either side are two vessels, suggestive of his four sacred containers of water, crowned by the Zapotec “water” glyph, and by flowers. I made this painting, and its companion painting of Pitao Cozobi, the Lord of Maize, as devotional images, meant to be placed on an alter, and to give veneration to Tlaloc/Cocijo, to the rains, our life. The print does not have the watermark or label saying Corazon Mexica. That is only there to portect my image online. The print is made and produced in Mexico; While I will process your order within a few days, the shipping can take anywhere from two weeks to a month. Please be patient! The print will get there, but Mexican shipping is slow. If you are in a hurry, write me a letter, and we can ship it via FedEx for an extra fee and you can have it within a week. Thank you!
