Horns Magazine is a gay-focused, LGBTQIA+ pagan/occult magazine. It features different voices from our various communities and includes beautiful homoerotic images (obviously NSFW and 18+).
I write for Horns Magazine, covering the history of LGBTQIA+ deities and spirits from ancient and contemporary paganism and other religions.
In the anniversary Halloween edition, Issue #12, I have written about the Aztec Flower Prince god, Xōchipilli. Xōchipilli was a challenging god to research and write about, as there is contradictory information about him from Aztec culture. This is largely due to Spanish attempts at erasure of Aztec customs and religion. It is widely believed that he is the patron god of homosexuals and trans/third-gendered people. Xōchipilli was celebrated every summer during a peaceful festival of love and flowers. Offerings of butterfly-themed dances and butterfly-shaped bread were given in his honour. This is likely why in Mexico today, the word for butterfly mariposa is used as a slur towards gay people. Anyway, enough spoilers, go read it for yourself. And of course, the other wonderful writing and art from the talented magazine contributors.
Digital download of the magazine is available now, physical copies will be for sale in the near future.
Happy Halloween to everyone who celebrates it! May it be spooky and horny!
