===Forgiveness of sin=== According to Aztec belief, it was Tlazōlteōtl who inspired vicious desires and who likewise forgave and cleaned away sin.<ref name="Soustelle199"/> She was also thought to cause disease, especially [[sexually transmitted disease|STDs]]. It was said that Tlazōlteōtl and her companions would afflict people with disease if they indulged themselves in forbidden love.<ref name="Soustelle193"/> The uncleanliness was considered both on a physical and moral level and could be cured by steam bath, a rite of purification, or calling upon the Tlazoltēteoh, the deities of love and desires.<ref name="Soustelle193">{{harvp|Soustelle|1961|p=193}}</ref>
