Dans le Yucatán, au Mexique, des coléoptères sont ornés de pierres précieuses et accrochés vivants sur les chemises de leurs propriétaires

In Yucatán, Mexico, maquech beetles are adorned with gems and pinned to owner's shirts where they crawl around, for fashion. The Smithsonian National Museum of Natural History holds one of the most complete confiscated collections.

Live jewels: The Makech 

The legend tells the story of Cuzan (“swallow”), a beautiful Mayan princess, daughter of Ahnú Dtundtunxcaán. Her beauty was known beyond the walls of the sacred city of Yaxchilán. When she was of age, her father arranged her marriage with prince Ek Chapat, the future lord of the Nan Chan Kingdom. One day, her father returned from battle with many presents and with a redheaded warrior called Chalpol. The princess instantly fell in love with him. They swore to never forget each other and their shared passion, but when Cuzan’s father found out, he became enraged and ordered Chalpol’s execution. 

On the day of the execution, Cuzan ran to her father with tears in her eyes. She promised to marry Ek Chapat and not to see Chalpol ever again if he wasn’t put to death. After consulting with his priests, he agreed not to kill Chalpol, but they transformed him into a beetle (called “Makech”) as a punishment. When her father showed the princess her lover turned into an insect, she took it into her hands and said “I swore to never forget you, and I never will.” She ordered the best jeweler of the kingdom to encrust him with precious stones and tied him up with a little chain so she could wear him as a brooch and he could stay close to her heart. 

 Today you can buy the Makech at craft markets in Merida. You can find them in plastic buckets with pieces of wood inside and can probably take pictures of them for around of one dollar or get your own for $100 to $200 pesos (around $7 to $14 dollars).

Makech is a beetle that some people in the Yucatan Peninsula wear as jewelry (or sell to tourists). Wearers would glue rhinestones to their shells and a piece of metal attached to a chain. At the end of the chain was a pin that could be attached to a lapel. As the wearer goes out, the insect crawls around and poops on their shirt.

Combinaison de ski de qualité

J'ai jamais vraiment donné beaucoup de crap sur le 'comment' et 'pourquoi' de celui-ci, jusqu'à ce qu'il a été le cas, mais quand c'était, je savais qu'il avait d'être chic, de sorte que même après 30 ans, si j'étais à regarder les photos de mariage, je pourrais dire avec fierté. plutôt que de street style. Oh, oui, il est un gâteau. D'où mon idée pour ce poste et la façon cara delevingne disant le sien il m'a frappé. Un milliard de styles que je vous dis, avec des aspects essentiels comme blanc ou noir, ce qui constitue une grosse remontée.

Comme un gamin, je vivais dans mon nike sur la tenue de la cour tous les jours. Elle est ma femme et je confiance à son avis, David a dit dans une récente interview. Il est amusant de mélanger et assortir rue avec des marques de luxe et de le jeter dans un peu de cru ainsi. Ainsi, au moins je vais être jubilant à moi-même tout en regardant le 'suit' dans ma penderie, lui tapotant l'épaule pour ma propre décision fantastique une fois, j'ai fait avec la permission de certains pays à faible estime de soi phase dans ma vie. Aussi s'amuser avec des bijoux, pile sur la couche de couleur et de tonnes de bagues, et donner au corps-look bijoux d'essayer.

☽✪☾ El #DiosAstado y la #tripleDiosa 🧙🏻‍♂️ La #Wicca no ha sido la primera #doctrina #espiritual en servirse de los arquetipos #masculino y #femenino para simbolizar la Dualidad que todo lo abarca. 🌿Absolutamente todo lo manifestado en este plano está dentro de la #Dualidad: tú, yo, tus #pensamientos, todo lo que percibes… Todo. 🍃La parte femenina del sistema #teológico #duoteoista de la Wicca, a veces se representa como una diosa triple, su contraparte masculina es el dios astado. 🌾La triple luna se divide en tres según los tres estados principales de la Luna🌺: La fase creciente se simboliza con la #Doncella 🌒. La #Luna llena representa a la Madre🌕. La fase #menguante se relaciona con la #Anciana🌘 cada una de los cuales simboliza una etapa separada en el ciclo de vida de las mujeres🌝 Por otra parte, las deidades masculinas siempre son representadas con #cuernos y en asociación con la naturaleza. 🌏El dios astado es al #Sol como la diosa a la #Luna✨Los arquetipos femeninos nos hacen ver los principios que hemos de cultivar en nosotros mismos para evolucionar como seres humanos... #compasión, #Amor, #maternidad, #sabiduría, #prudencia, #flexibilidad. 🌈Del mismo modo que el arquetipo masculino encarna otros valores esenciales para la consecución de la verdadera #Felicidad: #valentía, #coraje, #conocimiento, #persistencia. ☁️ (à Makech Tattoo) https://www.instagram.com/p/BzuPRctH4rH/?igshid=e9ntzzgz6bf1
