My FAVORITE quote:
You may call me Mexican
You may call me Chicana,
You can even call me a half breed!
Pero
DON'T ever call me hispanic
and
DON'T ever call me latina
Those are fighting words pinche pendejo!
Chicahuanecahual
Mexica (pronounced Meh-shee-kah)
From my eyes
burn a fire of truth
the hook of my nose
as nostrils flair
take care
Warrior of Anahuac
Shoulders strong and wide
watch the grace of my stride
the gentle sway of my hips
the sweet curve of my lips
Warrior Of Anahuac
Thick and sturdy thighs
mysteries burn in my eyes
the pyramids carved from my form
Warrior Of Anahuac
Mexica is calling
our beautiful people falling
as they eat of the whites lies
lulled to sleep by lullaby's
Wake up and take a stand
this all once our land
our children's destiny
a homeland for you and me
Don't follow like mindless cattle
make a noise like the snakes rattle
draw from the jaguar and eagle
we are the people so regal
Warriors of Anahuac

What is Spiritual Humanism?
A religion based on the ability of human beings to solve the problems of society using logic and science.
Most people need a religion to help guide them through life's challenges and difficult moral decisions. Recognizing how the power of religious rituals, methods, and communication can impact human behavior, Spiritual Humanism fuses traditional religious behaviors onto the foundation of scientific humanist inquiry.
While it is impossible to remove age old traditions from human culture, we can redirect them by redefining their underlying significance and meanings. Spiritual Humanism is natural, not supernatural. By using a method of scientific inquiry we can define the inspirational, singular spark inherent in all living creatures.

I'm a woman, a warrior, writer, singer and a poet. These eyes have seen much, this heart has felt much. I try to relay a message in all my works. My goal is wake my people up with the "Sounds Of Reality". My own writings from my soul and experiences. A gift I'd like to leave with the world before I head on home.
More to come: Keep checking back as I change poetry from time to time.
My birth year is 9-tecpatl (flintstone) and your tonalli day-sign is 10 calli (house). "Those are pretty kool signs.", said citlalin.
"All days started in the evening during your year born. The ..9 signifys "Searching and centrality" and the ..10 signifys "Duality, achievement, and equilibrium." Those are great ..s indeed!" stated citlalin.
The house sign symbolizes introspection, the home..."House, our home, refuge and house of thoughts, a safe place for reflection and regrouping for the comprehension of all living beings."
Tecpatl symbolizes "Our tongue, the word, profound, pointed and sharp. Profound method of study and analysis to truly comprehend things and then produce enduring concepts."
Thanks and love to my sister Citlalin for my reading from our Aztec Calendar.
