El Conejo • Kids Graphic Hoodie
How did a rabbit end up on a kid's graphic hoodie?
To start, there was an ancient myth that involved the ancient Mexican god Quetzalcatl. Upon his journey to explore the earth, he forgot to nourish his body since he took the form of a mortal man.
The vastness and beauty of the earth excited the god and with his excitement he forgot to take care of his earthly needs of nourishment. There he sat exhausted when a rabbit went by.
"Are you ok?" The rabbit asked.
"No, I am exhausted and hungry" The god replied.
"Here take some of my vegetables to nourish you" said the rabbit as he offered the last of his meal.
"I cannot eat this" replied the god.
The rabbit seeing his dismay replied by offering his body as a meal so that the god can survive.
Quetzalcoatl was taken back by the selfish gesture. He rose up and began to transform to his deity self to the amazement of the rabbit.
"What you have done is a beautiful selfless act" the god said with excitement. "As a token of gratitude, you will forever be imprinted on the moon to be known forever".
So from there on, when you gaze at the full moon you will see there an imprint of a rabbit.
This mythical rabbit is celebrated with this Kid's graphic hoodie!
