Bennie LeBeau aka Blue Thunder

[Epiphany]

formerPNW, feel free to msg me if you like, I'll help however I can. I'm in the Olympia area and have lots of past experience with new age cults and abusive relationships.

www.rickross.com is a great site, has helped me in the past, they have an active forum and lots of free articles and first hand stories from former cult members, researchers, survivors, etc. Their page Warning Signs http://www.rickross.com/warningsigns.html is good to keep handy.

Cult leaders prey on people who are in the middle of life transitions. He got her when she was vulnerable and now she may believe that her entire identity, soul, and worth are tied up with him.

Bennie now in Mexico, followers up here in Pacific NW doing their thing too for autumn equinox. http://www.earthwisdomfoundation.net/

http://www.earthwisdomfoundation.net/Story_of_Kristine___Blue.html I hope Kristine can get free of him soon, though she is obviously really hooked.

This is Suzy Chaffee's illegal non-profit. nativevoices.org belongs to her and is how she makes her living. She gets donations from rockstars and celebrities to "develop" Indian programs at ski resorts.
She makes fantastic - and very very untrue - claims of support by Native American politicians, lobbyists, tribal leaders and organizations.
Records searches show that her foundation operates illegally. It's not properly registered or licensed as a non-profit in Colorado, Arizona, California, or anywhere else she solicits money for Natives.
She pays no taxes and has never filed a 990 with the IRS. She keeps no books. Contributions go directly into her own personal checking account. She's been asked many times for her non-profit documents and has NEVER been able to show them, which is mandatory for non-profits.

Bennie LeBeau and others are her non-profit Native projects.

i can tell you a few things on this guy, i am from the wind river reservation and i know his former lady and her family. her and her family are really nice and well grounded in their traditional ceremonial ways and bennie??? well i seen one of his "ceremonies" and i left feeling akward and a non believer in him. he is from the shoshone tribe and enrolled but he is not a medicene man he wants somebody anybody to believe in him and it looks like he found a new age tribe!he was always leaving on "trips" to "help" people but it looks like he was getting to know kristine.

[debbieredbear]

Thanks for this tribal. I also heard his brother wants to do a nude sundance.

[Smart Mule]

Holy crow Deb, seriously?

[debbieredbear]

Uh, yeah, his brother invited a family member's husband to it!    They declined.

At about the 2:05 minute mark on this video Kristine (Blue Thunder's partner) states "Cause there's a little known thing about Chief Sealth and that is that his mother was white and his father was Native American".

But that isn't true:

Chief Seattle was an ancestral leader of the Suquamish Tribe born in 1786 at the Old-Man-House village in Suquamish.  His father was Schweabe, a Suquamish Chief, and his was mother Scholitza, a Duwamish from a village near present Kent.

The Suquamish Tribe http://www.suquamish.org/HistoryCulture.aspx

Lots more errors, and lies, and nonsense in this video - represents Blue Thunder & Kristine Soliday's "romantic" couple origin story about why they are together and why we should all listen to them.

(Kristine Soliday also uses the name "White Feather Woman)

Bennie LeBeau's group http://www.earthwisdomfoundation.net/Medicine_Wheel_Ceremonie.html lists what they call current ceremonies, including their "Pacific Northwest Medicine Wheel". The image they have for that still includes Quinault Nation. http://www.earthwisdomfoundation.net/Ceremony_Details.html Which leads some people to believe that Bennie LeBeau's work is endorsed by the Quinault Nation.

"Clearing ceremonies for Quinault Nation and Nemah" photos http://www.facebook.com/media/set/?set=a.204209256264805.51361.189477537737977&type=3 (check out the crystals, and were they asked to do these "clearing ceremonies'?)

Bennie's group is currently planning more Pacific Northwest "medicine wheel" stuff http://www.facebook.com/pages/Pacific-Northwest-Medicine-Wheel-Ceremony/189477537737977

They have met in the past at Kalaloch Lodge http://www.olympicnationalparks.com/accommodations/kalaloch-lodge.aspx which is a national park lodge, not Quinault Nation.

Bennie LeBeau and Kristine Soliday have settled in the Olympia, WA USA area. Craig Addison Houston (Addison Hokhmah) is listed as a director in their nonprofit Earth Wisdom Foundation out of Wyoming, he is also in Olympia, and has been quite active with the group.

This area is part of the Pacific Ring of Fire, arc of volcanic and seismic activity. Bennie plays on that fact, uses words like "tectonic", claims that we need to do ceremonies with them to prevent devastating earthquakes and volcanic eruptions. So if a big one happens - apparently it will be all our fault here. http://www.earthwisdomfoundation.net/

Bennie & Kristine seem to be on hiatus, they posted this 9/5:

Blue & I are going on a Sacred Mission and will return in about a week. At that time we will be sharing the next level information we have been working on that we know will help each & every person on Earth, whether we ever meet or not.

In a local Facebook group Olympia Respects Indigenous Spirituality is posted this:

Found out tonight from some Native Folks in Oregon that do Ghost Dancing, that they have heard of Blue Thunder and he is widely considered a fraud in their country. And that people need to beware of him because he is mixing the medicine in a way that the spirits are not happy about and could be harmful.

Great!  Blue and Kristine are on the same mission as Little Grandmother:

http://www.earthwisdomfoundation.net/
"The world was put together in sacred geometric patterns, circles within circles, which have been de-harmonized through humanity's mining,  development, thoughts and actions and these influences have affected most all sacred sites or places worldwide.  These activities have cut, frayed and distorted these ley lines or spirit lines.  Since all of creation relies on this electro-magnetic energy for it's survival, you can all see why healing and re-tuning these energy lines is crucial."

Whew!  I feel so much safer now.  Those ley lines are being activated!

Bennie LeBeau & Kristine Soliday plan to legally married on 12/12/2012.

Family of Humanity,
We have found our home base & are in the process of creating a teaching & healing center in the Olympia area in Washington state.  We will be hosting Full Moon & New Moon ceremonies, installing an edible forest garden to teach about permaculture and hosting many events to teach about Nature's laws, provide a space for personal healing and to join in the celebration of our return to Oneness with all of life. We are reaching out to the world, teaching about Nature's Laws which represent how to live in peace and harmony, in Oneness with all things.

We teach about how love works and how each and every thought or action that humanity has affects the Web of Life and the electro-magnetic elements of Mother Earth.  We are all made of these elements, the Earth, Air, Water and Fire, and what we do and think imprints upon them and replays itself. The Sacred Sites of the world from the mountain peaks to the rivers, oceans to the pyramids, are whatkeep the Earth and all her living beings charged with life force energy, with Chi or Ka

Oooowwweeeehhooo.

... Isn't that what the Flying Monkeys chant in Wizard of Oz?

[Epiphany]

Ooowwweeehoooo, which is Shoshone for "thank you into infinity" for helping us heal our planet and restore all that live upon her to love, peace and harmony.

But yeah, it's the guard marching cadence (Wizard of Oz clip http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Jtie6r27JeU)
