(American) Individualism Grows Up

It’s come up often lately, this issue of our American Individualism encroaching upon our paths forward to a new world of community and peace. The way forward is very much a process of self and it takes more time than we ever think or wish.

The question is often, What do I do?  What is it I’m meant to do right now? 

I’ve seen throughout time a common experience of misinterpreting what our ‘heart is telling us’…. We usually are being guided to do something but it is usually something we don’t ‘want’ to do, the harder path, the scary choice, and so we dismiss it, quickly forgetting that Creator does have our back, our hearts actually, and is trying to support us.  We then mistakenly feel alone when facing something big like needing to move on or change something….a job, career, relationship, moving, taking on leadership, starting something, finishing something, etc. We are feeling what we are meant to do but it is usually the harder choice, triggering an immediate ‘ease and comfort’ meter assessment and neural path creation away from discomfort;  the judgement and disposal of heart inspiration to brain landfill happens so instantaneously, we totally miss and/or immediately forget that the Creator just tried to answer our prayer!   

All of this is to say, finding one’s place even in the urgent times we are in is a process of self that takes way more time than we ever realize. Most collective movements, truly healing and peaceful communities, the most powerful Love in the world is usually of people who are elders…. They have already walked the road we are currently on, they’ve done the work … the learning, repetition and practice of unloading the baggage and coming to know exactly Who they are and they are old because it takes time. Can we make it there faster? Perhaps… do you have an elder? Have you found one that speaks to your Spirit? If so, did you hang on? Do you honor them? Care for them? Check-in with them daily? Are you listening to their wisdom or, at times, placing it immediately in the ooo-i-don’t-want-to-do-that land fill? If you are seeking their words, reading them, are you rereading them to the point that they become part of you? 

If not yet, that’s ok; they’re patient, they have many more years of patience than ourselves, and the lesson always comes back around, until we learn and get to level up to the next!

The wisdom, the Way forward is with our ancestors. I’d like to bring their writings and what’s been left for us to the soundcloud account, available for even just a few more searching for steps forward along the Red Road.

I’ll begin with the virtues of my ancestors, as it has been my journey since 2016 to come back to the Lakota Way to learn and to share.

Also placed below each virtue are some of my favorite Mother Teresa (MT) quotes as her wisdom has been truly illuminating for me in foggy times.

I find great solace in the practicality of her words. To me they are like a blueprint for the inner self, a lovely path of words for the hard work so elusive that words hardly ever suffice and which few have space to be able to gift in authenticity; the things which exist so fundamentally and innately but that cannot just be checked off a list.

Complimentary to her endlessly inspiring quotes, a book of her personal writings, Come Be My Light, is even more illuminating and supportive … It speaks to what the personal journey in service to the collective really is, what it really feels like and what it really takes. Of course we each get a unique journey, but to learn her experience is to know that even though she looked like a natural and it all came so easy, that is an oversimplification and so it puts us back into the place of personal responsibility and empowerment to listen to Exactly what our heart, the Great Mystery, is guiding our bird spirits to do, and to put away the fear and do it. We must do all that it takes to do what is in our hearts to do.

Elder wisdom X Elder wisdom BOOM!  Perhaps I’ll be Wise and Humble enough to learn from experience and speed the process.

1 Unsiiciyapi “HoSheeCheeAwpee” Humility, to be humble, modest, unpretentious.

Of the twelve values, this One raises the power of the rest.

MT:

If you are humble, nothing will touch you, neither praise nor disgrace, because you know what you are.

2 Wowacintanka “WoahWahCheetanka” Perseverance, to persist, to strive in spite of difficulties.

MT:

Not all of us can do great things, but we can do small things with great love.

God does not require us to succeed, he only requires that you try.

Yesterday is gone, tomorrow has not yet come. We have only today. Let us begin.

3 Wawoohola ” WahWohHoLah” Respect, to be considerate, to hold in high esteem

MT: 

Let us always meet eachother with a smile, for the smile is the beginning of Love.

If we have no peace, it is because we have forgotten that we belong to eachother.

I want you to be concerned about your nextdoor neighbor. Do you know your nextdoor neighbor?

If you judge people, you have no time to Love them.

4 Wayuonihan “WhyOwnia” Honor, to have integrity, to have an honest and upright character

MT:

Spread Love everywhere you go. Let no one ever come to you without leaving happier.

Kind words can be short and easy to speak, but their echoes are truly endless.

We shall never know all the good a simple smile can do.

What can you do to promote world peace? Go home and love your family.

5 Cantognake “ChawnTeyOhgoneAwekay”  To place and hold in one’s heart = ” love”

MT

Joy is a net of Love in which you can catch souls.

6 Icicupi “EachEachOobee” Sacrifice = to give of oneself, an offering>>Service

MT

The fruit of silence is prayer

The fruit of prayer is faith

The fruit of faith is love

The fruit of Love is service

The fruit of service is peace

Love cannot remain by itself, it has no meaning. Love has to be put into action and that action is service.

7 Wowicake “WoahWeeJawckHay” Truth, that which is real, the way the world is

MT

We do not need guns and bombs to bring peace, we need love and compassion.

8 Waunsilapi “WowSheLawpee”  Compassion, to care, to sympathize

MT 

The most terrible poverty is loneliness and the feeling of being unloved.

9 Woohitike “WhoaEateeKay” Bravery, having or showing courage

MT:

Do not wait for leaders; do it alone, person to person.

10 Cantewasake “ChawnteyWashOnkay” Fortitude, strength of heart and mind

MT

Be faithful in small things because it is in them that your strength lies.

11 Canteyuke “ChawnteyYouHeh” Generosity, to give, to share, to have a heart.

Whatever you have, give to those less fortunate; as one then, we have all we need.

MT

If you cannot feed a hundred people,then feed just one.

12 Woksape “WokeSawPay” Wisdom, to understand what is right and true, to use knowledge in a good way

MT 

Never travel faster than your guardian angel can fly.

As above, so below, so within.

A Truth which our ancestors were deeply conscious of and connected with. They knew their place and Who they were. Luckily for us, despite our path of disconnection, the Story of Separation as Charles Eisenstein has given language to so beautifully, the guardians of truth have kept safe the teachings which remind us today, and anytime that we may go inward or into nature,  Who We Are. 

The reason I write of the great reflection, the Oneness, of Who We Are is because those of us within the Sacred Circle of the Red Road deserve a focus; a mission for what has come to pass and is very much like a society. For the purpose, Creator has connected dots between the healing power of our work as aligned within, which is a direct reflection of our Mother Earth, another direct reflection of the Great Mystery that is the Universe of seen but much more that is unseen – all eloquently connected on many levels or fields… One. 

These fields, or planes of energy, a purposeful gradation of seen and unseen, subconscious to superconscious, have been known and taught across time by peoples throughout the world.  Today, they are most commonly known in the collective as seven Chakras. Again, these spirals of energy have been known and described throughout the world’s ancient teachings in many ways, taught locally within the language and symbolism of each people and rooted quite literally to the physical place in which they lived.

The actual geographic location is significant because it is the place of that knowledge, as it has been given directly from our great teacher and mother, the Earth. Our ancestors understood that these spirals of energy within us are reflections of those that exist around us and so, across the world, places of ‘power’ are celebrated and honored in ceremony by the original peoples of the land – so she too, our glistening, living Earth star, exists as a beautiful and layered network of energy flows, one within a whole of the Star Nations above us…as above, so below, so within. 

Technology and globalization make seeing it all much easier, though it is still our ancestors of their homelands that we look to, for they found believing quite natural, for they knew Who and What they were.

The implications of this are profoundly explicit… prayer power is impactful within but is equally felt across the grand network by which we exist as One. Since beginning this Circle, I’ve come to know that despite our members living throughout the country, across thousands of miles, we are linked. At times, my physical experience is, as I’ve discovered afterwards, a reflection of the others. For example, this week, on Monday, I felt the weight of the world though Nothing within my personal world had shifted profoundly, even noticeably at all; it is truly difficult to emphasize enough or put words to how weird I felt. By Wednesday I had discovered that within the Circle, one had been experiencing a Migraine since Monday as well as growing pains of a recent life-changing decision, and another was going into surgery to fix something from another very recent surgery. 

Again, the implications of this are profound – I’ve always known it was important for my own peace to live in a mode of continual growth and, in recent years, how important it would be for me to purify mind, body and spirit, striving to attain a level of healing in which I will indeed someday finally be healed – but I Never understood, as I do now, how critical it is for others that I do this! That which I do for myself is literally as I do for others! How I wish only to give the world brilliant Love and Beauty, yet I know now that my own waves of muddled energy spill over to the world, creating the reality that is! It gives great inspiration for living fully, with clarity and in brilliant, crisp colors! 

We are in a time in which Mother Earth has called for great Healing. Then our Circle shall tap into the beautiful “rainbow serpent” of energy wrapping around the world, connecting us all.  We shall grow in community and healing power across the world, along Mother Earth’s ‘spirit lines’ and those points of communion – both to heal and be healed… me/we… One. 

That is our path. 


Further Reading:

I’ve loved peeling into the stories of the great Earth Chakras 

We are connected to Mother Earth through the subtle electrical current that runs around the entire planet. These electrical currents are known as “Ley Lines” and are almost like Mother Earth’s veins.

In fact, where the Ley Lines intersect are believed to be high points of energy or high concentrations of electrical charge.

These Ley Lines are also said to be able to take information or energy from these higher vibrational points and carry them around the world, spreading knowledge and wisdom to all inhabitants.

These intersecting points along the Ley Lines are also coincidentally home to some of the most sacred temples and monuments in the world including the Egyptian Pyramids, Machu Picchu, Stonehenge and Angkor Wat.

When you look into advanced civilisations like the Ancient Egyptians, it is clear that they seemed to understand the energy and power of Ley Lines.

In fact, most ancient cultures around the world seem to have some understanding of Ley Lines. In China they are known as Dragon Lines. In South America the Shaman’s referred to them as Spirit Lines, in Australia the ancient Aboriginals called them Dream Lines and in the west they are referred to as Ley Lines.

What is also interesting to note is that where the Ley Lines intersect and meet, they also align perfectly with astrological constellations.

If you think of these Ley Lines as Mother Earth’s energy currents, you will begin to see how it is possible that Mother Earth also has energy centers or chakras.

It is believed that these are the Chakra’s of Mother Earth –

I Love the stories from this woman, Laura Grier. While she does not make reference to the origins of them she seems to have travelled personally to many. Learning the stories right from the people of place, many of which, often, have never been passed on through writing. I like her; her gifts of truth and beauty are expressed perfectly through her photography.

Corona Spring and Climate Change… How To Celebrate Earth Day This Year

We’ve reached an interesting groove by now. We’re managing our curve, we’re taking our social distancing medicine and seeing results.  Still in it though and now mindful of screen time! Simultaneously, and as we approach *‘Earth Day’ nature is rejoicing! 

Almost conflicted, many of us have found great joy in seeing the natural world around us blissfully fulfilled by balance! 

Here are two ways to embrace Mother Earth as the annual ‘Earth Day’ celebration approaches and which do not require much screen time:

  1. Walk in Solidarity with the Chief for this year’s Walk For The Bees! Get out, #BeeWalkAroundTheBlock in true Covid Spring fashion, with the bees in your heart and send your pictures in to the chief! 
  1. Take the next few minutes to Join OneClub! If not right now, then certainly on Earth Day!  By spending just a few minutes to join our little club you will make an immediate impact for our trees as well as a lasting one, automatically, each time you conduct your online business. 

If you find yourself online, then here is the place to be on ‘Earth Day’!

*Earth Day is every day, is it not? Reach out for help finding the balance in the space that heals you.


Also, be not conflicted, take great peace and guidance from indigenous wisdom now and onward: 

This moment humanity is going through can be seen as a portal and as a hole. The decision to fall into the hole or go through the portal is up to you. If they repent of the problem and consume the news 24 hours a day, with little energy, nervous all the time, with pessimism, they will fall into the hole. 

But if you take this opportunity to look at yourself, rethink life and death, take care of yourself and others, you will cross the portal.

Take care of your home, take care of your body. Connect with the middle body of your spiritual house, all this is synonymous, that is to say the same.

When you are taking care of one, you are taking care of everything else. 

Do not lose the spiritual dimension of this crisis, have the aspect of the eagle, which from above, sees the whole, sees more widely. There is a social demand in this crisis, but there is also a spiritual demand. The two go hand in hand. Without the social dimension, we fall into fanaticism. But without the spiritual dimension, we fall into pessimism and lack of meaning. You were prepared to go through this crisis. 

Take your toolbox and use all the tools at your disposal.

Learn about resistance with indigenous and African peoples: we have always been and continue to be exterminated. But we still haven’t stopped singing, dancing, lighting a fire and having fun. 

Don’t feel guilty about being happy during this difficult time. You don’t help at all by being sad and without energy. It helps if good things emanate from the Universe now.

It is through joy that one resists. 

Also, when the storm passes, you will be very important in the reconstruction of this new world. You need to be well and strong. And, for that, there is no other way than to maintain a beautiful, happy and bright vibration. This has nothing to do with alienation. This is a resistance strategy…. there is a rite of passage called the quest for vision. You spend a few days alone in the forest, without water, without food, without protection. When you go through this portal, you get a new vision of the world, because you have faced your fears, your difficulties…

This is what is asked of you:

What world do you want to build for yourself? For now, this is what you can do: serenity in the storm. Calm down and pray. Everyday. Establish a routine to meet the sacred every day. Good things emanate, what you emanate now is the most important thing. And sing, dance, resist through art, joy, faith and love.

These are good words which were given to me this week and so I am giving them to you. They are being attributed to “White Eagle, Hopi” – though I have not been able to verify this origin.

Shoestring Love

The perfect act of Shoestring Love – just a little something, whatever a person has, is more than enough enough – has the healing power to save someone’s entire day… to save an entire world!


We are each given a singular Purpose here, one collective mission: to Love and be Loved. That is the great Oneness of our Being. It is in the expression of that Love that makes up the glorious individuality of self.

How might you gift your Love to the World Today? 

These are the things that I must do:

  • CRANE FRAMES
  • SACRED CIRCLE
  • FREE-BEES BOX

Very recently, a dear love of mine, visited me from very far away. She was here for only a moment, a mere glimpse of life, but through her glorious lens, she saw something that I had been misunderstanding my whole life.  At one point in one of our days together, she declared, “You are an artist!”  

Is that the first time someone said that to me? No.  But was I finally ready, for whatever reason, however many layers of time and self, to hear it? Yes.  In letting this sink in over a few days, I got to the bottom of it – I have always put off creating the inspiration within based on the misconception that there was always something more important for me to be doing for the world. 

Finally, I embody the freedom that there is Nothing more important for me to be doing for the world, in the world, than the exact things of inspiration which are born within me and none other.  


Much Love, Lindsey Lou On The Move

Crane Frames

Each one unique, each one carrying a wish!

Visit the Shoestring Love shop on Etsy to order.

As I go out into the world, it has become a habit of mine to keep my pockets filled with the love of many tiny folded companions. As I meet others, sometimes only briefly, a stranger in passing for example, I am able to share that love freely through the tiny but significant gift of a folded friend. In the case that I have neither a folded friend or a stored piece of paper, I’m never without something to fold up and share any moment Love is needed (always!).  This little act, these little creatures, they are a perfect act of Shoestring Love.

These frames were born of that simple daily practice. 

They are each unique and have been given their own time to come to life but the purpose and principles are the same. Love is Love is Love.  

They are special to me in many ways… 

They have been conceived as a modern honoring of their origin, a gift of our Japanese relatives through the beautiful tradition of the senbazuru in which 1000 cranes, folded with love and goodwill, bring much abundance to their recipients, even a wish!  In the case of these Crane Frames, each one comes with a wish as each one includes a crane hand-colored by my nana… she has since passed on from this lifetime but her hands and beautiful artistry have left us with many uniquely colored pages for folding up with love; her wish to travel in all the directions is bountifully reflected in these cranes that are now in flight all over the world. That magic then, that wish, passes on to you, carried upon the folded wings of the crane you receive.

The colors that flow throughout these frames, red, yellow, black and white,  are used often in the Oglala Lakota tradition of I and my grandmother’s people. The four directions represented in these colors describe Truth, as they represent the circle of life; and so they are reflected also in the harmonious rainbow and in the beautiful rainbow of the human family.

Mother Earth is honored in the resourcefulness of each frame as they are made up of rescued materials which would otherwise go to no use.  For example, the frames are refurbished from things like old silk screens or picture frames, or merely scraps from carpentry work; the buttons and beads have been saved over generations often lying-in-wait within the tin cans and jars of many, many households throughout the world… my buttons were once my moms and her moms, as I know is likely true for you. 

The frames are quite light and so demand less energy in shipping. 

Also, there is a special gift built into each frame which will reveal itself sooner or later like a bud, opening to flower and growing into full blossom – please let me know when the miracle I describe reveals itself to you. 

With love receive them and gift them again, that is Shoestring Love!

Order a Crane Frame – your contribution to this work is a great blessing

MUCH LOVE

Sacred Circle for Ceremony

Grandmother taught us… Life is a ceremony in itself, worthy of celebrating with ceremony – which means that yours and my life are worth celebrating every single day with a ceremony. When we do a ceremony from our heart, just like anything else growing, a bud will be born within us, and sooner or later that bud will begin to open; it becomes a flower, and that flower comes to full blossom where there will be seeds. But because you and I live on this Earth, winds of change will come upon us and when that happens the seeds will blow away – and somewhere else, another ceremony will be born…. When ceremony loses its spirit, it becomes a ritual – and life today is full of rituals… Grandmother was born in 1893.

Uncle Angaangaq, Kalaallit Nunaat (Greenland), The Mother Earth Delegation of United Indigenous Nations of the North during the time of the Corona Pandemic March 2020

In the summer of last year, 2019, I was gifted a revelation that only now, in its own time, has begun to unfold.  

As my spirit has reawoken, my soul reborn, I’ve found such power in meditation which reveals to me more and more the vast unseen. In this process, at one point I came to understand that there would be a significance in gathering together in prayer within the vision plane. At that time, such a thought had never occurred to me… the concept of gathering with another living being, or many, with full intention and awareness, within the realms of the great unseen! I’ve since come to know that all things are possible, much more than the limited experience of our ego-driven physical experience allows us initially to conceive of – until it awakens to the great Truth of our Being. 

A Gift for Your Celebration

Within this physical plane we are gathering in the Sacred Circle of the Red Road. 

To honor this beautiful ceremony, as a symbol of connection and strength, I would love for you to have your own sacred circle. Each one is made with love and each blessed by our Mother, the Earth.

Your sacred circle is made up of individually twisted braids and beads that can be worn throughout your day – around your wrists and ankles or as a necklace; and so they will be available for you to unwrap and circle around you when grounding in for ceremony, ideally in touch with our Mother, the earth (your feet upon the soil, or grass, or sitting upon a rock).   Someday, should the occasion arise in which one or more of us come together in the same place on the Earth, then too our individual circles may be unwrapped to be rejoined together in ceremony. It is a beautiful thing (another act of Shoestring Love in the world!)

  • Each one is twisted in the way of our Hawaiian relatives, who taught me how rope is made to be unbroken.  
  • The colors that flow throughout, red, yellow, black and white,  are used often in the Oglala Lakota tradition of I and my grandmother’s people. The four directions represented in these colors describe Truth, as they represent the circle of life; and so they are reflected also in the harmonious rainbow and in the beautiful rainbow of the human family.

You may order a single long rope or a set of four shorter ones, one for each direction and with the capability of extending the protective power of that sacred hoop to each wrist and ankle during your days.  

While it does take more time to unwrap and reconnect each of the four into full circle for ceremony, I have come to find that experience as a gift in itself… taking the time, to care, and to come into circle wholly mindful. 

It is also possible with the four braids to leave two, three or all four connected up to wear as you wish. 

To order yours, please Come in to the Circle with us.

Whole Earth Balance

We look at our world today and become overwhelmed.

But!  Do we ever ask – How the Earth heals herself? 

She does it easily with four beautiful systems of energy exchange and abundance. 

We are quite familiar with each of these: 

  • Fire, the sun, that brings golden light to all of our days
  • Air, the cleansing life breaths and movement of every single moment
  • Water,  and the original and absolutely perfect department of transportation
  • Earth, our foundation, the rich black gold of our soil

As you look to your own life, your own health and life spirit, Are you taking part in the sacred balance of our physical world? 

Our peace of mind in these times lies in these four natural systems – when in balance unlock the infinite bliss of the spirit. 

The whole earth heals when you set free the balance in the space that heals you, and that is a Hopeful and actionable idea! 

One person can become One People can save One Planet!

You can start right here, in the online space you occupy. Please take the first easy, peasy step for healing the space you are in and Mother Earth too…

Join OneClub by saving some trees immediately and automatically with every search!

A Sacred Circle of the Red Road

Epic times. Hard to put words to.

Find your resolve and inspiration here; please feel welcome to join us in this sacred circle of healing and love…

I wish health and happiness for each one of us and my heart feels great compassion for those who are suffering.  Suffering, however, is not new upon the landscape of the human experience, nor is it inherent. This is why there is room in my heart to find much joy in this moment when the great storm of selfish power is ending. Mother Earth has waited for us to choose a better way all of this time.

Some of us are ready, we’ve been waiting – we are aware of our own innocence, insignificance and Great Oneness simultaneously.  For those of us whose eyes are open and ears are listening we are on a path of healing and also serving as healer, of learning while also teaching. 

It is a time for our great “Wisdom, Courage, and Compassion”

This then, is a Sacred Circle meant to gather up those of us who understand the call of Mother Earth. We are in process, growing in our Wisdom, Courage and Compassion as we continue to listen closely to learn from Her, from the ancestors of our past and the spirits of Truth who walk among us today. 

As a welcome, here is a special gift for each of us who come to this space to better know the story and the Way of the Red Road. 

This group is our tepee of many skins. It is a sacred circle and together we sit upon the earth across vast distances. We represent the beautiful blended rainbow of colors of the two-legged. 


This is a powerful space to find healing, learning, comfort, support, and focused energy for prayer and creation. 

It embodies and fulfills these years of immense transformation, of rebalancing – the feminine spirit flows strongly through this circle because it is a time of coming back to balance, and so the sacred masculine is just as welcome and necessary. 

Gathering in the Vision Plane

Because we are distant from each other and often even our own Being in this physical plane, we shall gather in the vision plane… visualizing our circle, our sacred pipe, filled with holy tobacco and even White Buffalo Calf Woman sitting among us, joining us in the rounds of sacred prayer. Her teachings were a gift for those of us listening, especially for guidance in times such as this.

As I send out daily Red Road words and song for your meditation, replace the pipe ceremony as you need with deep breathing or any other means by which you find your way to Relax into Oneness with all that is seen and unseen.

White Buffalo Calf Woman is but one great spirit that has come forth to peoples of history to awaken those they met. Her words in this space are to provide a guide. They are not meant to constrict the path of your spirit as you receive our daily Red Road readings and go forth in meditation; your intuition is a direct means of communication with your Creator Spirit, to deny it is to deny your Creator, to embody it is to find that Infinite Blissful Love, Peace, our given Power of Creation in Love.  

Join the Sacred Circle of the Red Road

Upon listening to The Story of White Buffalo Calf Woman and the Way of the Red Road and joining our sacred circle we will be linked in the physical plane, as we are universally, all of the time. 

Our community…

  • Exists to help heal Mother Earth and to make miracles happen!
  • Is pretty organic. If something is contributing to the healing and learning of the times we are in, and in a spirit of Love, then it is a true gift and blessing to this community – it is welcome and appreciated; the ripples of it will describe Truth and evoke Beauty beyond what you may know. 
  • Benefits from the Buddy system. As you join this circle, please extend an invitation to anyone in your direct circle that comes to mind right now. 
  • Grows from your own inspiration and contribution to the playlist of our meditations and days
  • Is connected and strengthened by the Sacred Circle of Ceremony
  • Is energized by your Check-In!  For the sake of community and prayer power, it is amazing to hear from you when you sync into the reading and prayer. Feel free to share where on earth you’re sending your love and healing energy in from and anything you are lit up about or needing our love, support or prayer in. For example: 

Hey all, checking in with love and gratitude from the occupied land of the *Kumeyaay Nation, USA. Feeling blessed in the miracle of this new day which greeted me with one of the Mothers most fulfilling of experiences – a perfect rainbow, unbroken and clear, framed in a more subtly reflected but full, secondary rainbow. May your hearts feel full, as mine did standing in the soft, golden rain of the morning, the breeze caressing my cheek, the cool water conveying the message of life to my skin, and that perfect reflection expressing all of the Beauty, potential and harmony of this world. MUCH LOVE

*Please help to teach the others how to Honor, in gratitude, the lands and peoples of your story and/or the place where you are now, as often as possible

Please listen or read The Story of White Buffalo Calf Woman and the Way of the Red Road if you have not yet.

Cheers, to the perfect intuition, service and love which dissolves the fear-driven energies of the world away at once and for all time.

Welcome


Many blessings and gratitude to:

  • Ken Carey whose partnership with Great Spirit has brought us many teachings of times long passed as well as those of the unseen, infinite and timeless – including this retelling of the story of when White Buffalo Calf Woman came to the Buffalo People to gift them the ways of the Red Road, from Return of the Bird Spirits, the vibrations of which meet us as deeply today.
  • Joyce Sequichie Hifler, a Cherokee sister, who has gathered many teachings of our relatives throughout the history of Turtle Island placing them into easy to follow daily lessons.
  • Eub Motega whose vibrations in his song of Medicine Power bless the intentions of this Welcome, the beginning of this Sacred Circle
