#mictecacihuatl

I hope you all have a Happy Día de Los Muertos, and what a best moment to share with you all this amazing makeup art, made by @tanya.bayer.cosplay inspired on my piece Mictecacihuatl my Queen of the Underworld.

Quetzalcoatl, Mictecacihuatl and Tezcatlipoca designs in Onyx Equinox. I loved the show and I hope they get a second season.

The skull is the face of Mictlantecuhtli, Lord of Mictlan, ruler of the Land of the Dead. Together with Mictecacihuatl, Lady of the Dead, His role is to receive the spirits after the end of their lives, and cleansing them so they can return to the Earth. The skull is also a seed, a dead element which carries potential life within, and, when buried or “planted”, it sprouts and continues the cycles of the cosmos.
