In this painting Veronica uses a combination of images derived from Nahuatl amoxtli (codices) along with her own reinterpretation of Nahuatl symbols to represent her family and herself. The central image represents Veronica in my dance regalia. The skull on her regalia stands for her husband, whose tonalli, or Aztec birth date symbol, is Miquiztli (death/rejuvenation). The two flowers underneath the skull symbolize their two children. The yellow conch shell represents Veronica's spirit guide, Quetzalcoatl. The three butterflies are a representation of spirits of past loved ones.
