Mythology Summary
Xochiquetzal is the Aztec goddess of flowers, love, weaving and craft, the patroness of the young and of everything made beautifully, and the figure who goes to the underworld and returns. She is pleasure as a craft rather than as an accident.
Modern Practice
Xochiquetzal is honoured with flowers, weaving and dancing. Her practice is the beautiful thing made competently, and her offering is the finished work.
