What the Native American Medicine Wheel represents

[Guest guest]

Dear All,

 

Here is a beautiful description of what the Native American Medicine

Wheel represents:

 

" It is a symbol of the heartbeat of the people and a drawing of one's self in

harmony. It is the circle of life of no end and is where all things exist and is

our walk with the Spirit. It is where all things come together as one and is the

soul of man. It is the fire within us as it rests gently in the spirits of the

waters. It is our heart song of the buffalo and is the four seasons of our walk.

It is the sleeping bear and the eyes of the Eagle Spirit. It is the fire within

our lodge and the smoke that spirals gently into the Great Mystery. It is our

connection to ourselves, the grass and trees, the deer and a cloud drifting

gently across the sky of our spirit. It is the light in a dewdrop of the morning

sun and is the circle of nations. It is the connection to our brothers and

sisters and all things around us from Stone People Nation, to the Star People

Nation. It is the four sacred winds that blow gently through us and the

directions that we reach out to assist others on the walk of our circle. It is

the Great Shield of Truth within the hearts of all human beings when they choose

to listen closely and walk in harmony. "
