Ep 85 - Quetzalcoatl - Part Bird, Part Snake, All Ancient God
This week, Tracey is sharing what she learned about the ancient Mesoamerican god Quetzalcoatl. His story survived centuries, spanning the rise and fall of nations to make him one of the most famous shape-shifting gods of the modern world.
Quetzalcoatl is part bird, part snake; sometimes a god’s terrifying pet, sometimes a man and creator god in his own right. “Buckle up, Buttercup”, this mythological history is an exciting ride.
