Universe

The Aztecs practiced polytheistic religion, with a pantheon of gods and elaborate ceremonies, including human sacrifices, believed to maintain the balance of the universe.

On A populated universe Paul Wallis reads the name Yahweh in this chapter as a later layer over an older one:

Lahmu and Lahamu - Twin deities who represented the chaos of the primordial universe

Anshar and Kishar are both considered to be primordial deities, who emerged from the chaos that existed before the creation of the universe.

According to the myth, they are the first of the primordial deities to emerge from the chaos of the universe, born from the union of the fresh waters of the Abzu and the salt waters of the Tiamat.

While Lahmu and Lahamu may not be as well-known or widely worshiped as some of the other deities in the Babylonian pantheon, their role in the creation myth is significant in establishing the emergence of the universe and the lineage of the gods.

This passage emphasizes the monstrous nature of these early deities and the chaotic state of the universe before order was established.

The first thing that came to mind was the creation of the universe, constellations, and planets.

Monster-serpents = Asteroids / universes

Hurricanes, and raging hounds, and scorpion-men, And mighty tempests, and fish-men and rams = Constellations/universes

The destruction of Niflheim is said to have led to the creation of the first beings in the universe, including the giant Ymir.

The Aztecs believed that the universe was divided into several eras, each of which was associated with a particular god.
