The Indigenous people known as the Huichol first appeared in the high highlands of Central Mexico some 15,000 years ago.
According to their ancient traditions, both men and women would experience the pain of childbirth.
This is how it would be done, the father would position himself on the rafters with rope tied around his scrotum while the mother would pull on it while giving birth.

I think Tumblr is really going to like Wixarika art. Check this out
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
I saw this in the Museum of the popular cultures in Coyoacan, Mexico, and I was enraptured. I was reminded of how art is supposed to make you feel
All of these had anonymous authors, but we know they come from the Wixarika culture. To be honest I don't know much about their culture, but now I know these people can do ART
What I like most is the abundance of little guys, like this goofer over here
Tumblr media
Or this guy with his dog
Tumblr media
This dofus who seems to be casting a spell
Tumblr media
Or this pal with a deer face, you just know he's up to something
Tumblr media
But of course it's not just guys, there also many other beautiful characters, like the Deer God (it's not a play on words, one of their deities is Kauyamari, the Blue Deer)
Tumblr media
This Phoenix looking bird
Tumblr media
These guys who seem to be admiring, well, a sac of some kind...
Tumblr media
Another instance of the Deer God and the Phoenix
Tumblr media
And just a ton of cool scenes, like this one
Tumblr media
I love this art and it moves me in ways that are hard to explain, and I hope it moves you guys a bit too

Mythological Deer - Blue Deer
“During a time of drought and famine, four young men were sent out into the desert to hunt whatever they could find. After a few days they came upon a large blue deer. They attempted to capture it but were too weak, and the deer felt sympathy for them. The next day they tried again, firing an arrow that appeared to hit. When they approached they saw the arrow had landed in a pile of Peyote cactus in the shape of a deer. They brought the cactus back to their tribe, and everyone’s thirst and hunger disappeared.”

Roberto Gil de Montes explore how the effects of the rainy season in La Peñita, a small fishing town in Nayarit, Mexico, can radically alter how we see water, figuration, and figments of local Huichol iconography in the tropics.

I ordered this bracelet a month ago from Etsy. A MONTH. It was held up in customs from Mexico. AND I had to go to the post office to pick it up! I order crap from China (shein, temu) all the time. I ordered art prints from Etsy from the UK and some Baltic country once. All those only took about 2 weeks to arrive. In my mailbox. But I order something from Mexico and they act like we're trying to smuggle illicit drugs or something. 🙄🙄 It's fucking stupid.
Anyway. It's so pretty and I love it and I'm happy it's finally here. 🤗
