Nahui ollin roughly means 4 directions, but has a very historically diverse range of meanings
It is also both a name and a date, & represents the 5th sun being our current time, as the world has been created and destroyed 4 times so far
You can also see it in the center of the calendar stone

But here’s my fav tidbit I found on it
From https://tlacatecco.com/2012/07/31/nahui-ollin/
“I’d like to call your attention to one last thread of the story that makes it even more fascinating. The date Nahui Ollin isn’t only the birth name of Tonatiuh, the present Sun, but it is also the prophecied date that He and the earthly realm will collapse into chaos and darkness again. Thus, this single date and phrase is both His birth and His death, packed into one incredibly concise little packet bursting with meaning. Life and death, creation and uncreation, Mictlan and Topan, separated only by time. The Aztec alpha and omega.”
Also the mage vanity is Tlaloc a god of water & fertility
