Greetings again,
I'm going to look at Quetzalcoatl, the traditional Aztec/Toltec and mayan deity figure...
There is a lot of deeper symbolism involved in this figure/god... He is acquainted with the morning star,sometimes venus as well, he is thus a rising and dying figure...Thus of course we come back to this New Age, Aquarius waterbearer, Pinchbeck's return of quetzalcoatl:2012 is of course related to this...I have only read a little bit of it, but I can guess, knowing from summaries,,,
Back to Quetzalcoatl, he was known to be the one who stopped animal sacrifice...this can be also related to his namesake Ce Acatl, Topiltzin on this site.(http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Topiltzin_Ce_Acatl_Quetzalcoatl)
I'm also reading a fictional book incorporating legends into Quetzalcoatl and Topiltzin...
The Florentine Codex approximates the God into a belief that he was first Topiltzin Ce acatl(our prince 1 Reed-date), but then again Sahagun was condescending towards the trad. religion(as expected)...
I equate human sacrifice with the later periods, worship of the war-gods...Huitzilopochtli and Tezcatlipoca, aztec gods...the aztecs were of course in medieval Tollan, one of many groups, but the one that took real control
Now to my personal thoughts...one time I saw Quetz. in the underworld with a servant, he claimed to be coming back...took me on his back for a ride...much was spoken, yet like most subconscious dreamlike experiences, words are hard to come by...soon he will be back, I am a helper in the process...obviously hehe
Our dreams can be merely dreams but always have some meaning, I just have to find mine although i'm not certain of this 'instant' new world stuff but changes are happening...

Hey Dom,
So, what caused you to become interested in Quetzalcoatl?
Intriguing dream you had. How did you know it was Quetzalcoatl?
Hey,
I was going through a questioning period, had marked no religion on my census(2 yrs back),
but I've always been drawn to traditional mythology or religion…most people don't realise that not all aztecs practiced human sacrifice, each religion also tends to have a hero…
quetzalcoatl defines the dying returning hero, some stuff from topiltzin has been added to quetzalcoatl or the other way around..hehe.
He had a human look and yet he could fly and had a sort of feather suit..there was a servant with a quetzalcoatl figure drawn on the back of her hooded jumper…
for some reason i get deep and meaningful dreams where it seems like i'm talking but i can't hear anything…or can't remember the words after..? but there's usually a message that is being sent across
I sometimes have dreams that feel meaningful.
But I don't remember having dreamed of a deity.
I did have a dream of a succubus once. Egads… she was scary… razor teeth, sorta vampire like. Maybe she was Lillith. Anyways, I don't want to meet her again.
I don't dream too much about talking or hearing. However, I've recently dreamed of reading in my dreams. It was almost clear enough for me to have remembered it upon awakening but not quite. I've been recording my dreams lately trying to improve my recall.
(late entry to this)
strange enough…
like ce acatl topiltzin…i was born in ce acatl or 1 Reed(1987),
which is the same year mayanist jose arguelles organised harmonic convergence, just seven days before my birth…but then again arguelles has been a bit twisted in his work on pacal the great or the telektonon prophecy…
