Cipactli Pin
Cipactli is known to represent the earth. The earth appears as a giant caiman, holding weight, laying in the water: its skin mimics the ground. Cipactli is sometimes also represented as a sea monster being half crocodile and half fish with traits of a frog or toad. According to legend, at the beginning of time, there was only Cipactli and the sea. Cipactli, therefore, represents the beginning and the energy to start the day. Cipactli is the first of 20 symbols in the sacred Mexica calendar. People born on this day are believed to be quick learners with strong principles. They can guide and direct with confidence. They make great leaders, but are warned to not take advantage of their power or the people who believe in them.
