Quetzalcoatl & the Day of the Dead
from Myth in the Mojave · host Catherine Svehla, PhD
From around the world and across time, experiences of the unseen realms and the beings that populate it come down to us in the form of religion, myth, and story.

May it inspire you to extend an invitation to your ancestors and helpers in the spirit world.“. . . Is it true one really lives on the earth? Not forever on earth, only a little while here. Though it be jade it falls apart, though it be gold it wears away…” —-Nezahualcoyotl, Aztec king and sage from the 15th centurySupport the show
