 <\/p>\n

Tezcatlipoca is a Nahuatl name meaning “smoking mirror”.<\/em> (source)<\/a><\/em> It\u00a0is the name of one of the four main Aztec gods, it is also a common name that applies to each of these founding\u00a0gods. Tezcatlipoca, god most feared of the Aztec mythology, is the second son of four Ometecuhtli and Omecihuatl, parents of four Tezcatlipoca: Xipe Totec red, black Tezcatlipoca, Quetzalcoatl white and blue Huitzilopochtli.<\/em> (source)<\/a><\/em><\/span><\/p>\n

Here we find the same idea as the Maya: the four jaguars with\u00a0the four colors of human races<\/a>. Xipe Totec is the red race, Tezcatlipoca is\u00a0the black race, and Quetzalcoatl is the white race.<\/p>\n

As for the last, Huitzilopochtli, he\u00a0should represent the yellow race, yet he\u00a0is blue. As the Smurfs. As the Avatarians. As the people of Aquablue.<\/a>a French comics that inspired Avatar<\/span>\u00a0But mostly, the blue colour means the divine race, which is still present in the memory through the title of “blue blood”, which, in many languages, refers to the nobility, the ruling caste, the sons of the former gods.<\/p>\n

Should we conclude that our creators, those who terraform the planet, those who designed us\u00a0in their test tubes, should we conclude that the former gods were blue? Memories won’t lie.\u00a0I got the blues. I feel bluesy. Blues is all around me, and it’s everywhere I see, nobody’s got this blues like me.\u00a0<\/em><\/p>\n

Who\u00a0knows? In any case, Krishna is blue. Some black people have very black skin with blue highlights. Kali is blue as well. Osiris is blue, Nut is blue like the starry night she\u00a0symbolizes. The sky is blue, the outer space appears dark blue. Were they blue skinned, those supermen who came from the faraway stars?\u00a0Nut the Egyptian, the Blue Night of the starry space, Nut is our heavenly mother. First representation of the mother goddess we find in almost all mythologies, she\u00a0has the attributes: the thunder is her. But not the thunderbolt that kills, burns or destroys. The lightning\u00a0that animates, awakens and flourishes.<\/p>\n

Thunder is the laughter of Nut. And when she cries, her teardrops\u00a0fertilizes the soil. Black Tezcatlipoca is also associated with the night.<\/p>\n

Another thing: none of the Maya and Aztec main gods to\u00a0represent the yellow race. Why? I assumed in another article<\/a> that these gods represented only the races present in this part of the world. The red race\u00a0-the oldest probably- with Blacks from Africa<\/a> and Whites from Scandinavia<\/a>. Note however that Tezcatlipoca body is all black, except for his yellow striped face.<\/p>\n

According to Aztec legend, Black Tezcatlipoca shamed the first god, White Quetzalcoatl<\/a> who fled the country on a raft of snakes. But this racialist legend is, in my opinion, too recent to provide any indication of the true Tezcatlipoca. Before being black like mica, Tezcatlipoca is a steaming mirror. Or he\u2019s the master of this mirror.<\/p>\n

Tezcatlipoca is a magician. Spells master, he can also reveal dreams and real images in the Smoking Mirror. What\u00a0if it were the screen of a TV or a PC? If it were a laptop or a pad?<\/p>\n

According to legend, this mirror was polished obsidian plate, the surface is disturbed by the will of Tezcatlipoca to reveal near and far images from the past, present or future. I think it may be a technological object. Put a 11th century man in front of a flat screen, he will see a polished slab of obsidian. This is the natural material that most resembles a screen. And the wild has no other word to describe what he sees.<\/p>\n

Any sufficiently advanced technology is indistinguishable from magic.<\/p>
