Looking for person with Native American Knowlage
« on: February 27, 2013, 11:17:00 am »
What it is we want is the history of the spirituality, we know what a medison wheel is but how did it come about, why are some animals sacred etc what is a medison pouch and why/how did it come about etc. We said that we would charge for the day to cover costs and all axsess go to a native American charity as we are a non profet group anyway and do alot for h4h but as this involves Native American culture we feel it should go to Native Americans.
If you know of anyone in the UK or Wiltshire area we would be extremly greatfull.
Thank you
Sarah

why?  Would be the first question, I would then ask which tribe?  Because of all the 600 tribes each has their own way and it is all different, we dont know each others ways, then what are you talking about the medicine wheel? Which tribe and this is not a general concept among native people, what are u talking about "sacred animals" which tribe? Medicine pouches? Where are you learning this stuff from?  I ask this question because its seem you have been listening to newage people. Each tribe has its own way and culture and we as Native American tribes dont know each others ways and there is no general way among the people.
One tribe honors their dead
another tribe stay away from the dead
One tribe Sun dance
another Rain dance
one tribe has underground ceremonies
another in the open air
there is no cookie cutter way among my people

As earthw7 said, there is no one answer to the things you're asking. Each nation has a different belief system regarding these things and some do not use some of them like the "medison" (medicine) wheel. As a Métis my beliefs and traditions are very different from those of, say, an Apache person's.

I'm not even sure of all of what you're trying to ask because your spelling and grammar are atrocious. Sorry.

Sarah,

As has been said, we have lots of tribes, and with different beliefs.

What caught my attention is the H4H, which is close to my heart.

I live in Wiltshire, I will talk with you, on the telephone or whatever, and hopefully explain things
