The Quetzalcoatl is a Mesoamerican deity. It appears as a feathered serpent.  Symbolic of fertility and internal political structures, it was also believed to be part of a triad of agricultural deities including: Tialoc, god of rain, lightning and thunder, and the goddess of the cave symbolizing motherhood, reproduction, and life, leaving Quetzalcoatl as being the feathered serpent, the god of vegetational renewal. It was also connected to Venus because of its importance as a mark of the beginning of the rainy season.
