Native American naming ceremony
I can see from the amount of questions
from search engines that a naming ceremony is still not understood by many and
very much maligned by non native writers!
Protocols for a Native American Naming
Ceremony
A Native American naming ceremony, as
with all of our ceremonies is NOT a religious event, it is not a rituals, these
are occult words not Native American!
A Naming ceremony is a prayer request to
Creator, an answer from Creator and an obedience to all concerned making sure
that the receiver has a native deep spiritual way to contact Creator in prayer.
It is never a show for wannabe American
Natives at powwows!
Why do we have a naming ceremony?
Our naming ceremonies are our way to
introduce a person to Creator.
If excepted, Creator will name this
person this is why all of our ceremonies are so sacred!
This is also why traditional elders and
spiritual leaders get so unset when they hear,
"I just came from so and so and
he/she gave me my Indian name"!
It will take at least two weeks before a
person hears that Creator has given you your tribal name, not because Creator
is busy, but because Creator will wait for you to humble yourself enough before
the people to get that name!
