Obsidian Mirror

Aztec

1200-1521 CE (mirror) 16th century (frame)

Obsidian, a volcanic glass, was used to make cutting tools as well as delicate ornaments. It was valued for its reflective qualities and employed in the form of mirrors for divining. Such mirrors were associated with powerful rulers and divinities: the name of a major Aztec god, Tezcatlipoca, means "smoking mirror." The gilded wood frame of this example likely dates to the colonial period and is carved with alternating flower and step-fret symbols.

Aztec Astrology (Chica Sign) nickname for the “snake”

I don't know how to put this into words, but having this sign in Aztec Astrology is 50x more intense than Scorpio influences. If you have this sign in Aztec Astrology, many people will be irritated by your presence quickly, causing them to throw aggressive & intense responses at you, something about your presence triggers people so hard, that they feel so intimidated by you and uncomfortable with you. No matter what your appearance is, you will have incredibly seductive features, you simply radiate seductive energy, with sexual energy, this sign is ruled by the kundalini energy, by the sacral chakra, which stands for sexual energy. You will immediately feel this sexual energy with these people, the can’t hide it. As you can see, they radiate dark energy, you get a little scared of them, it's like they come from the underworld, no matter how sweet they are to you you still find their presence a mystery, something about them is not right and it triggers you, because they have a closed energy that you can't read. The eyes, they are so intense, it's like they look right through you, like there's no life in them, it's so intense that you feel with them as if everything around you is fake. These people are psychic and connected to death, they experience more than one world, they communicate easily with deceased people. They share nothing, they are incredibly secretive, so secretive that it seems dangerous. The most sexy Aztec sign to have, the can seduce anyone or scare anyone. People often mistake them for being “possessed” especially when the see them stare. Unbelievable smart, not human smart, unhuman smart type of way, the intelligence will scare you. Are the type of people that will do black magic on you, or voodoo when you do them wrong. Unbelievable good at manipulating, unbelievable good at lying unbelievable good at being sneaky, and unbelievable good at manifesting, also unbelievable good at playing seductive roles like dancing, flirting, touching etc.

Quetzalcoatl

So, Olrox has a Quetzalcoatl form. And that one is interesting, right? Though it also makes a lot of sense then in the context of the series. Well, kinda.

Let me get one thing out of the way: There is a tendency in western media to say "a Quetzalcoatl", as if there were many. Because a lot of western understanding does understand Quetzalcoatl as just another form of dragon. He is not.

I am not gonna claim, that I know a ton of Aztec/Mexica mythology. I do not. So, I cannot do the kinda comparative mythology stuff that I can do with western and Asian mythology. I am fairly certain that there is some comparative mythology going on in South America, too. But... I just do not know about it.

But what I can tell you, is that Quetzalcoatl is one of the creator deities within the Mexica mythology. And that he is the God of the planet we call Venus, the god of the wind, the sun, of learning and of knowledge. (Which is doubly interesting, because the old CV show had this core theme of knowledge going on.)

Quetzalcoatl presented himself as the feathered serpent, which is also what his name means. And Olrox having this form implies something within the context of the show.

Because with Erzsebet the show establishes that the vampires can drink from the blood of a god and take some of their powers. And Olrox having this form (and also his powers relating to thunder) implies that he might have drunken from the blood of the actual Quetzalcoatl.

Interesting is of course the powerlevel there in comparison with Erzsebet's Sekhmet. Sekhmet of course is a war goddess and as such has a lot of fighting power. But also, Quetzalcoatl is one of the highest deities of the Mexica people.

What is interesting, too, is that Erzsebet (if she is really the historical figure) should be about the same age as Olrox. A bit younger in fact.

And just going off the little I know about Quetzalcoatl... For one, it is interesting he is also a sun deity. But also, I do think that Olrox probably should be able to take on Erzsebet. And the reason why he does not do that is very probably interesting.

(Probably gonna write a bit about that in the evening.)
