Ixtleconism (Nahuatl: Ixtleco), also known as the Sacred Covenant (Nahuatl: Teotlacemitoliztli), is a henotheistic religion encompassing the philosophy and beliefs of the nahuatl-speaking speaking peoples of inhabit Zacapican and their areas of historical influence across the world.

Name

In Nahuatl, Ixtleco can be translated as "rising", or more completely as "climbing the incline". The term is used to encompass constructive or agitating divine forces and the faiths that venerate them, distinguished from the Ixtemo, the force of decline, decay and stagnation. Ixtleconism paints a dualistic picture of the universe, with opposing ixtleconic and ixtemonic gods and spirits. Some foreign religions, especially those syncretic with Zacapine Ixtleconism, are encompassed within the term and considered to be of equal or approximate validity, while other faiths have been labeled Ixtemonic and are shunned either for theological or historical reasons.
