I think you'd like this article about lightning, jaguar spirits, and the holiness of the isthmus of Tehuantepec.

I would love to read, but I don't have time. Can you summarize?
It's about a region in south Mexico near the Olmec heartland which was considered holy because of the lightning striking there so frequently. It's the thinnest point between the two oceans in the region.
There was a sacred hill called jaguar hill that gave the isthmus of tehuantepec it's name.
The Indians thought lightning was a divine power related to the storm god Tlaloc [who is represented by Venus just like Ra] and their wise men.
Lightning is what is thought to create lodestones
Were-jaguars are depicted in many temples [werewolves and are symbolic associations between lightning, wise men, and the jaguars.
