Are the Natives Americans the only ones that smudge?

The answer is No!

People in other countries like the Celtic countries

and

Australia have a form of smudging also.

However, because some people in Indian country, usually non natives or part time natives, seeing what they think is a sacred ceremony, write a book, without the proper knowledge, or permission, usually with disastrous results, like with what happened when that GURU held his so called sweat.

People like him always charge money, a lot of money, for something that Grandfather (Creator) demands to be given freely.

Census participation pay off

Tribal efforts to boost Census participation pay off in population surge

http://cronkitenewsonline.com/2011/07/tribal-efforts-to-boost-census-participation-pay-off-in-population-surge/

"Following the lead of a successful Navajo push to get more members counted in the 2000 Census, other tribes around the state made a dedicated effort to get people counted in the 2010 Census. And it appears to have paid off, with the state’s Indian population up more than 15 percent in the decade".

Once again, I say," if you have American native blood, or if you think that you may have American native blood, it is your duty to stand and be counted.

The BIA, your state, and the government want us to believe that they have the right to choose their pet Indians as recognized American natives.

However, your ancestors say to you, "No this is not so"!

You owe it to your elders, ancestors and Grandfather (Creator) to see to it that you check the American native box each census no matter what others have checked in your name on past census!

Remember that your past elders, fearing, bodily harm on you that many of them have suffered in the past, checked WHITE on your census"!

Please remember!

Census participation pay off

THIS DOES NOT MAKE YOU A NON NATIVE.

Tribal Adoption Native American

Many questions of today are about this

Clan Mother/Adoption into a tribe.

What is a 13 moon, what is a 13 moon ceremony and why does it take so long to complete this ceremony?

All good questions that should be answered at the right time and the right place, at the time of the request.

Many ask, "Why should it take time to be adopted into our tribe?"

We will answer your question with a question.

"Do you really wish to be a full blood member of the people?"

Because you do not have the royal blood line or do not have the ancestors blood line of any of our people one should understand that you must start from the beginning, learn everything about the family, were it came from, how did it get to where it is now, were is it going in the future, and how does one actually get the blood?

All of these questions will be answered and must be excepted before the ceremony.

However, for your information Native Americans throughout Indian country call Mother Earth, Turtle Island, we call her this because Grandfather sent us to Mother Earth on Grandmother Turtles back, and a turtle has 13 sections on her back that held onto the original 13 tribes.

A 13 Moon Ceremony is an extremely Sacred part of our culture because it is the only way to keep and strengthen any tribe.

http://mysmudgingblog.blogspot.com/2011/06/adoption-into-tribe.html

Every Sacred ceremony, like the Naming, Funeral, Wedding, Pipe, and Adoption must take a long time if done correctly because it forever, this Adoption will change the control and the Royal family, so if some Wopauyaw (White person) takes your money and gives you a name within a day or so the person and the name are Snake Oil Phony!

Native American Warrior.

Blog question of the day.

Can a male go through the 13 moon ceremony?

Guessing by this question this person has no idea what is involved, this is the best answer to that question.

Being over 70 years now and confessing never heard of a boy or a man going through a Tribal Clan Mother 13 Moon Ceremony.

However, in this era of male/female discrimination, anything may be possible?

Now all one needs do is find a Spiritual Leader willing to over look this male/female fact and spend the time with this person necessary to complete the ceremony!

Why do we have a naming or Adoption ceremonies?

Why do Christians have baptisms?

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!
