The Black Jaguar represents the duality of life: the forces of light and dark. The sun and the moon. day and night, life and death, death and re-birth, truth and illusion. With its highly reflective eyes it was thought that the Jaguar had the power of divination and the ability to see into the future. The Jaguar is revered as a divine figure and the possessor of knowledge. The Toltec’s believed that the Yellow Jaguar was the Sun God who became a Black Jaguar at night to travel unseen in the spirit world. Eclipses were caused when the Jaguar swallowed the Sun and the Black Jaguar could be born into the earth reality when the sun returned.
