Welcome Carbondale
Illinois
Please take your
escapee, our governor back?
Please?
I know,
No Way!
Thank you for your
visit to one of our posting
While looking for
information about the four corners, in our tribe it is a ceremony.
Like with Florida,
Illinois tribes were forced out of their territory by the invading government
and many tribes floated onto the land.
It just so happens
that many of our people over in the east also landed there after the invading
government forced them west.
Therefore, I am sure
that some of those tribes have ceremonies at least close to what we still do
over in the east.
Winnebago and
Shawnee tribes come to mind.
Native American
prayer to the 4 corners

Four Directions
(Shehukte Kina kihouk) is not the same as four corners, four directions is
speaking about a balance of good and evil.
Please keep in mind
that we have never and will never go into the many sacred ceremonies in
writings because they are Sacred Ceremonies.
The Four Corners is
one of the many ceremonies performed by the Head Clan Mother with the blessings
of Creator and direction of a Sachem Chief.
At that point Head
Clan Mother is in charge of how, what and who within the circle.
This ceremony could
be for weddings, births, deaths, naming, and many more.
Once the Sachem is
informed about a ceremony, the Head Clan Mother arranges a circle with her clan
mothers in a four-corner position depending on which ceremony she needs to
perform.
Everything in an
American Native's ( Native American) culture is with the circle of life or
within a circle, Mother Earth, Powwow circle, Paw~ paus circle, Fire circle,
Prayer circle, even our Alters are in a circle.
