Born under Tezcatlipoca

Tezcatlipoca is the smoking mirror, lord of the night sky and of fate, who sees what everyone hides. You carry the hidden side: insight, solitude, an appetite for what is behind the surface. People feel seen by you, which is a power to use kindly.

Frequently Asked Questions About Numerology

How is Tezcatlipoca linked to the number 7?
Through the psychic number of Vedic numerology: the day of the month you were born, reduced to one digit. Each pantheon on this site assigns one god to each number from 1 to 9, and Tezcatlipoca holds 7 in the Aztec Gods table.
Is this a traditional Aztec Gods belief?
No. The gods and their domains are traditional; pairing them with birth numbers is a modern numerological reading, and it is presented here as reflection rather than doctrine.
What if my life path is different from my birth day number?
They are two different numbers. This page follows the day of the month; the life path uses your whole date of birth and has its own pages under Numbers.
