THE HUMMINGBIRD:The Mayans associated the hummingbird with the Black Sun and the Fifth World of their legends. Their deity Quetzalcoatl was considered to be a hummingbird god and, as the Feathered Serpent, wore its plumes. Although the feathers of this bird were used in love charms, the Aztecs had a war god, Huitzilopochtli ("the hummingbird on the left"), who wore a crown of these plumes. SuperstitionsIt is believed by many that hummingbirds migrate by hitching rides on larger birds.Magickal AttributesHappiness, love, relaxation.Don't 듼Ķ sjuemtal. Love and happiness in your life.
