Each individual flower on Earth contains the dynamic force that defines the vastness of our existence. Unlike well-known myths describing the world supported by elephants or giant turtles, some pre-Hispanic societies envisioned our planet as a delicate four-petal flower with thirteen celestial planes lightly floating above us. At the pinnacle of this cosmic structure exists Omeyoacan, embodying the concept of duality: heaven and earth, man and woman, above and below. - Rachel Levit Ruiz
