the priests and servants of the temple departed from here, the Temple of Mexico, during the first quarter of the night, and went to the summit of that mountain near Itztpalapan which they call Uixachtecatl. They reached the summit at midnight, or almost, where stood a great pyramid built for that ceremony. Having reached there, they looked at the Pleiades to see if they were at the zenith, and if they were not, they waited until they were. And when they saw that now they passed the zenith, they knew the movement of the heavens had not ceased, and that the end of the world was not then. [Vol. 4, p143]

And when they drew the new fire, they drew it there at Uixachtlan, at midnight, when the night divided in half, They drew it upon the breast of a captive, and it was a well-born one on whose breast [the priest] bored the fire drill. And when a little [fire] fell, when it took flame, then speedily [the priest] slashed open the breast of the captive, seized his heart, and quickly cast it there into the fire. [Vol. 7, p25]

Then [the priests] slashed open [the captive’s] breast. In his breast [cavity] the new fire was drawn. They opened the breast of the captive with a flint knife called ixcuauac. [Vol. 7, p28]

These New Fire rituals were dedicated to the god Huitzilopochtli.[152] Curiously he was associated with birds and birds were given to him as offerings, primarily hawks and quail. (This recalls the bird cemetaries associated with Thoth.) Other ceremonies dedicated to this god also appear to reenact a meteor impact event. For instance, Sahagun’s description of the annual Panquetzalitztli festivals, held in honor of Huitzlilopochtli, notes:

“in a concluding episode of the ritual events, a large paper-and-feather xihucoatl [fire serpent] was brought down the steps from the platform of the Main Pyramid, to be presented at an altar on the bottom landing: Thereupon likewise descended the fire serpent, looking like a blazing pine firebrand. Its tongue was made of red arara feathers, looking like a flaming torch. And its tail was of paper, two or three fathoms long. As it descended, it came moving its tongue, like that of a real serpent, darting in and out. And when [the priest] had come [with it], bringing it down to the base [of the pyramid], he proceeded carefully to the eagle vessel. Then he went up [to the eagle vessel] and raised [the fire serpent] also to the four directions. When he had [so] raised it up, then he cast it upon the sacrificial paper, and then they burned. (Sahagun 1951-70, Bk. 2:136).”[153]

A fire serpent descending from the heavens (i.e., top of the pyramid) and bursting into flames once reaching earth is the perfect metaphor for a meteor impact.

The date of the 1014 AD tsunami, falling on the eve of St. Michael’s Day, is also interesting. The legends surrounding the Biblical character of Michael sound very reminiscent of an impact event:

“there was war in heaven. Michael and his angels fought against the dragon, and the dragon and his angels fought back. But he was not strong enough, and they lost their place in heaven. The great dragon was hurled down - that ancient serpent called the devil, or Satan, who leads the whole world astray. He was hurled to the earth, and his angels with him.”

As noted previously, comets were associated with serpents and dragons throughout the ancient world. This “war in heaven,” then, sounds a lot like an eyewitness account of a comet fragmentation and impact event. The “dragon” would represent the parent comet and “his angels” were fragments of the comet as it broke apart. The dragon being “hurled down” and “hurled to the earth” would represent the impact event.

Yet this passage from the book of Revelation was written over 2,000 years ago, a thousand years before the impact event of 1014 AD. So why was September 28 already associated with Michael? This suggests that Earth has experienced a previous cosmic impact on September 28 during a previous era that was the basis of the story in Revelation and the reason the date was devoted to Michael, the hero of the impact allegory. Thus could there be a predictable cycle of such impacts? Instead of viewing the ancient writings as prophecies could they be closer to forecasts based on a predictable cycle?

Not only does the end of the Aztec’s Fourth Sun correspond with a suspected impact event so does the end of their Third Sun. For instance, Aztec legends noted that the Third Sun ended with a rain of fire. They also noted that the beginning of the Fourth Sun was associated with the goddess Chalchiuhtlicue crying blood for 52 years producing destructive floods. Rains of fire, blood rain and floods are all known phenomenon associated with impact events.

Interestingly, these legends correspond well with events that happened on Earth beginning in the year 536 AD. Researchers have noted that Earth appears to have entered a dense cloud of cosmic dust that blocked out the sun for 18 months. Written records from the time noted how the sun only shown for four hours a day and was only as bright as the Sun during an eclipse. Other written records noted that real blood fell from the sky during this time followed by deadly plagues and that these events lasted for 52 years.

Researchers have noted that an ammonium spike appears in the ice core record dated to around 540 AD. As noted previously, these ammonium spikes are associated with known impact events thus there appears to have been such an impact event in 540 AD. Dallas Abott noted that evidence for at least two major tsunamis dated to this time period as well. Red rain or blood rain is also a known phenomenon associated with impact events thus eyewitness accounts of blood falling from the sky further supports this impact hypothesis. Thus the Aztec “myths” regarding the events associated with the end of
