On This Day: Quetzalcoatl and More …

03.13.2011 by bloggard // Leave a Comment

Big mouth. Big wings. Big trouble.

Interior of Mexico, this week: Maybe our myth and memory of long ago is better than we think.

Archeological discoveries in Mexico made recently report that fossils of the Pterosaur, a flying lizard from the same period as dinosaurs, actually had wingspans up to 60 feet! Thank about that. It’s lots bigger than a small airplane. It’s longer than a bus.

The pterosaur was much like a huge bat, with membrane-thin wings and hollow bones. It’s also called Quetzalcoatlus after the ‘Feathered Serpent’ of the Aztecs.

A dim and ancient memory?

I don’t know what you think, but it sounds like a dragon to me.

Perhaps the dragon is not such a mythical beast as we’ve been told. Perhaps it is, instead, a dim and ancient memory, deep inside us, and in moments, seen clearly.
