Aztec Mythology Mictēcacihuātl

Aztec death goddess Mictēcacihuātl embodies both fear and reverence in the afterlife

How does Mictēcacihuātl's role reflect the Aztec view of death and the afterlife?

She represents a balance between death as an end and a transition, overseeing the souls and rituals honoring the dead. She is solely a terrifying figure who punishes souls in the underworld without any connection to rituals or rebirth. She is a goddess of life and fertility with no association to death or the underworld.
