Greetings Relatives! The purpose of the Medicine Bag is to provide Medicine for the people.
>>>>MEDICINE BAG<<<<
A ceremony within a ceremony, like rings on an old Pine tree
The seasons make their mark, undulating lines with their own impression, yet circled together
A family of Eagles soar overhead, their outstretched wings and glistening feathers shine upon us
A raccoon walks the edge of the lake, while a quiet deer eats grass in the distance, a calm presence
The smell of sage and sweet grass, and the burning embers heating the Mothers with a glowing life force
Washing away our negativity and replacing it with something positive, our pores releasing toxins of the heart
I do not know what the words of the songs and prayers all mean, but I am learning, as the rhythms trace through my bones
In the darkness there is light, and a Brotherhood and Sisterhood within the Mother’s womb, engrossed and held, while Father beats the drum
You are not alone my brother, sister, father, mother. You are a warrior, in this world and another
Sweat together, and may we find the Spirit in the hot, dark, undulating air
May we trust what we find, my dear friend, and hold it in our hearts
Mitakuye oyasin. (All my relations)
