The Order of Knights, Eagles
and Tigers, hereafter referred to as OKET, is the highest honor a Teocalli
may confer upon one of its members. To be eligible for this honor, and
to be consecrated a High Pontiff in the Order of Knights, Eagles and
Tigers, one must be an Artisan in good standing in a Teocalli under
the Order of Quetzalcoatl, See of North of America. Such an individual
must have been a member no less than two (2) years and have made outstanding
contributions for the advancement, welfare and Good of the Order. Serving
as a Camaxtli or officer of the Teocalli does not in itself qualify
an individual for this high honor.
All nominations for this honor shall be made through the Supreme Teocalli
and accompanied by the appropriate nomination fee. The official emblem
of this Order shall be a double headed serpent, gold in color, worn
on a chain around the neck. This emblem, originally the symbol of a
Tlaloc, was worn as a pendant by the High Priests. A certificate of
recognition also is presented to the recipient of this honor. All OKET
certificates issued shall be numbered consecutively in the order in
which they are granted.
The name of each High Pontiff shall be carved in perpetuity among the
Aztec deities in the annals of each Teocalli and shall appear in order
of their respective seniority in each Teocalli roster/membership listing
titled “High Pontiff of the Order of Knights, Eagles and Tigers.”
The OKET shall meet a minimum of once each calendar year as designated
by the Sacrificial Executioner (President). There shall only be two
officers, a Sacrificial Executioner (President) and an Astronomer-Priest
(Secretary/Treasurer) who shall be appointed by the President. These
two officers shall sign all subsequent certificates for those hereafter
properly nominated and accepted by vote of the High Pontiffs in attendance
at the regular annual meeting. Regalia, OKET certificate, lapel pin
and “Snake” medallion (The official jewel of an OKET), must
be purchased from the Supreme Teocalli and is purchased by the local
Teocalli without the knowledge of the nominee.
