Quetzalcoatl: who the hell is this and why is it important to me in 2010 ?

“One faces the future with ones past” Peal S. Buck


This is just a start of a long conversation about Quetzalcoatl. Volumes have been written about this God/hero/priest/ king of our culture. His name means the Plumed Serpent. I have been engaged for the last 50 plus years in the pursuit of what Quetzalcoatl means to me as a Mexican-American I can wager the regular “carnal” on the street would be unable to give any information about our cultural hero yet the land of Mexico is dotted with magnificent archeological sites and temples dedicated to him. The Hopi tribe is awaiting his return, the Mormons think he was Jesus and some in New Age Circles think he was a space visitor.
