OLLIN
In Aztec philosophy, Ollin, translated as “movement” - names the fundamental condition of existence: a universe perpetually in motion, sustained through cycles of creation, destruction, and renewal.
This worldview reflects core Aztec values: responsibility over complacency, action over stasis, and the understanding that human life is inseparable from the rhythms of the cosmos.
To live well was to participate consciously in movement, embracing struggle, transformation, and duty as essential to sustaining society.
We will explore how we can integrate the philosophy of Ollin into our lives by participating in conscious movement, embracing struggle, and transformation.
