The Navajo God of Water is known as Tonenili, who is responsible for bringing rain, snow, and ice to the people of New Mexico and Arizona and is also known to cause lightning and thunder.During Navajo ceremonies, people dress up as Tonenili and perform a ritual in which they play the role of the god of water. This type of humour is usually welcomed in serious rituals, such as the Navajo night chant. The night chant is performed to help people who are sick or those in need of a break from the world. It can be a captivating experience if the chant is repeated over and over again. During this time, Tonenili is the main character, and he can also light up the mood by throwing water around.Tonenili is a deity who carries a water pot. In some cultures, he is depicted as a masked man who enacts a character similar to a comedian. In other myths, he is depicted as a fool who dances around to show his approval of what's happening around him. He often argues with the Navajo god of gambling Nohoilpe. During times of drought or misfortune, it has been said that it was because he lost a bet with the latter.Read more at https://mythlok.com/tonenili/

The were-jaguar is a part of the Olmec mythology and is considered a deity or supernatural entity. It was initially believed that the were-jaguar was linked to a myth about a woman and a jaguar copulating. However, other theories have since emerged that claim that the were-jaguar may not actually represent a jaguar.The were-jaguar was highly regarded in pre-Columbian societies as a symbol of leadership. In addition, the ruling elite used the motifs of the were-jaguar to reinforce their authority. However, this doesn't explain the nature of the were-jaguar's design. For over half a century, scholars have been debating the were-jaguar's possible origins.According to some researchers, the depictions of were-jaguar copulation on monuments were merely the beginning of a cult or a representation of conquest in battle. Instead of depicting sexual encounters between humans and jaguars, experts sees the animals as aggressors. Most of the sculptures and reliefs in the Olmec mythology feature figures wearing loincloths, which suggests that they are not sexually explicit. According to researchers, it is not uncommon to see unclothed individuals representing dead enemies or prisoners in battle.Read the full article at https://mythlok.com/were-jaguar/

In a country such as Mexico, where the success or failure of the crops depends entirely upon the rainfall, Tlaloc, the Rain God, was a deity of high importance. He made his home in the mountains which surround the valley of Mexico, as these were the source of the local rainfall, and his popularity is vouched for by the fact that sculptured representations of him occur more often than those of any other of the Mexican deities. This episode is also available as a blog post: http://martinifisher.com/2018/11/23/dance-for-tlaloc-the-rain-god-and-his-people/

What is Plant Spirit Medicine? Join herbalist and nutritionist Diana Sproul as she presents plant spirit medicine as explained in Eliot Cowan's book of the same name. Plants, trees, rain, lightning and the Chinese elements (like water, metal, earth) are each represented by a consciousness. These may appear through meditation or dreaming in human, animal, insect or other form. Healing an imbalance or lack of a certain element in a person’s spiritual make-up and life can help a person become well and whole again without addressing the illness itself. The author says that is ordinary, and that all of us can learn to do what he does. Author Eliot Cowan does training at the Blue Deer Center in New York state. This lecture is Part 4 of 4 parts.
