I'm being facetious; I do not believe the world will end today or tommorrow. Rather, I think the Aztecs and Mayans ran out of time to create and correlate symbols for the ideas they had, after observing their own civilizations for years on end, for what they thought might be happening now. To the left is the symbol of a flower, which they used to describe today. Day Xochitle is governed by Xochiquetzal, or flower-feather. It is said to provide beauty and truth to the collective "shadow soul". The flower fades, to eventually become fruit and seed, leading to new life after the old is cast aside. Don't wait to let you loved ones know you love them.
