Flowery Feather Fertility Goddess

Her name means “flower precious feather”. Loves Games, loves Dance, but mostly loves Love.

As Goddess of Love, she’s surrounded by butterflies and creates a warm glow wherever she goes. Her brother Xochipilli is also into flower power. Aren’t they sweet? Her husband was Centeotl, or maybe Tlaloc.
