BLOOD

Not sure what you wish me to do with the below 'questions?'

I am guessing that you would like me to compare them to

"Blood?" 

I will give you the meaning and the why of the New England Woodlands Native American statement

"Blood"

Then you can apply this to those questions.

Or, please give me a better answer to, "what do you wish me to do with them?"

Blood - We use this word while speaking about any human, believer to have or not to have "First People of Indian Country as part of their past family."  

Narrowing this down to only speaking about our little corner of 'Mother Earth,'

Any creation, created by Creator, is in, tribal member, married into the tribe or adopted into the tribe are or become (Full Blood) members of the tribe and entitled to all benefits of the tribe.

I am going to try a few of these.

(1) - My grandfather said many times "I will...., when the spirit moves me".

(1a) - I know who I am- I want to know who went before me with pure heart? Where? When? Their blood names?

I have heard this many times in my past and usually means, "Get off my back, if I feel like it, I might then and only then get to it!"

This is the reason why you will never hear that statement from "yours truly!"

 (2) - How does one go about learning ancestry?

There are only three ways to know for sure that you have found your blood (Ancestors)!

Pound the Pavement, Pound the Pavement, Pound the Pavement!

If you know nothing or next to nothing, a good place to start would be with all living relations.

Leave no lead un-turned.

There was, many years ago, a free genealogy site on the internet, not sure, if it still exists today?

Absolutely and positively NEVER, pay anyone to do the work for you, because in today's world, many will puff over blank places just to get into your pockets!

If you feel the need to do this, you must still go over their finding with a magnifying glass.

I have helped a number of people in the past and found a few places that should be able to help in your search.

Local newspaper clipping, (micro films) in a town or city in the state and states, that you are looking into, while at libraries, town halls and The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (LDS Church).

(3) - It was suggested to me to "challenge" organized recognized peoples?

If this is speaking about people claiming to be Native American and this is important to you?

Repeat after me, "Prove It!"

(4) - These are gifts from Creator-not an agency.

There are things gifted by the world and there are things gifted by your 'supreme being' (Creator).

If it is a blessing to help bring you closer to Creator, chance is that the gift is from Creator.

You can receive a Jet Plane, you crash, and burn because you do not know how to fly, in all probability; it was not a gift from Creator.

(5) - I watch my brothers and sisters pander to such-my brother is a traditionalist-he sweats 3/5 times a week-his wife works for Siyeh Corp.

A Sweat, how be it, very important to the person, is one of many forms of prayer to the tribes Creator no matter where that person of family member works?

An answer has been given.

My grandfather said many times"I will....,when the spirit moves me".

How does one go about learning ancestry?

It was suggested to me to "challenge" organized recognized peoples?

I know who I am-

I want to know who went before me with pure heart?

Where?

When?

Their blood names?

Those not given by a Hebrew doctor at Hartford hospital.

Each and all are given rights-until some selfish dogs seeks more than their share!

These are gifts from Creator-not an agency.

I watch my brothers and sisters pander to such-my brother is a traditionalist-he sweats 3/5 times a week-his wife works for Siyeh Corp.

Haught! "Confusion squared" in his lodge!

I ask your help-but cannot tolerate the madness others bring.

Sioux Seeking Return of Relatives Buried at Carlisle

The Rosebud Sioux community is trying to bring back their relatives buried in the cemetery at the Carlisle Indian Industrial School.

If I may be, so bold and butt in a little, as an elder that has been to this Army Camp/Drill yard/school/ torcher chamber /burial grounds, a number of times.

Before waiting too long, or starting the dig, please latch onto your elders, Medicine-man, and woman, for advice and a trip to the 'complete area'?

The claim from the army is, only moved twice.

 

Smudge the complete grounds and all buildings.

http://tahtonka.com/travels.html

This initiative was started by a group of Rosebud youth who asked the question: Why aren’t they home?

On January 19, the Rosebud Sioux Tribal Council of Rosebud, South Dakota, passed a resolution to bring home the remains of several Lakota children buried at Carlisle after hearing an impassioned presentation by the members of the Defending Childhood Initiative Youth Council,

also known as the Rosebud South Dakota Sicangu Youth Council, according to the Tribe’s Historic Preservation Officer Russell Eagle Bear.

Eagle Bear also explained that the Tribal Council was following the protocol established by the Native American Graves Protection and Repatriation Act

and had sent letters seeking the return of the children’s remains to the Department of Army, Department of Justice, and to President Barack Obama.

The return process started, however, as a result of a visit to the Carlisle grounds by members of the Youth Council last year.

According to Vikki Eagle Bear, project manager of the Defending Childhood Initiative, which developed the Sicanga Youth Council, the students were inspired to take action after the visit.

“We went to Carlisle since the youth are learning about historical trauma.

When we arrived Historian Barbara Landis gave us an overview of the school and we visited the grounds and then the graveyard,”

Eagle Bear said.

The Youth Council members learned, among other things, that the cemetery was moved twice and that the children never received a traditional burial ceremony.

“With Lakota, it is really important to pay respects to the spirits.

The young people left candy offerings to the kids buried there.

One child called their names out loud four times to make sure the children would come back home with them,”

Eagle Bear said.

“As that happened, fireflies enveloped the area, we were overcome with emotions,” she said.

“When they came back, the youth gave a report to the Tribal Council and asked ‘why aren’t we doing something to bring them home?’”

The Tribal Council then passed a resolution to begin the process of trying to bring the Lakota children back to Rosebud.

The Tribal Council also sent notices to the descendants of the ten children from Rosebud buried in Carlisle, asking them to attend a meeting to get their blessing for the endeavor.

Both the Tribal and Youth Council held special gatherings for the descendants who, according to press statements, supported the effort to bring home the relatives.

They also sought and received support from the Great Plains Tribal Chairman’s Association and the National Native American Boarding School Healing Coalition.

In the process of learning about the children buried at Carlisle, the Youth Council members found out that the Northern Arapaho community in Wyoming also tried to have their family members returned from Carlisle in 2007,

but the Army refused the request.

A group of Youth Council members traveled to the Northern Arapaho Reservation to learn more about their ongoing effort.

The Youth Council representatives met with Yufna Soldier Wolf, director of the Northern Arapaho Tribal Historic Preservation Office, who explained their situation.

The Youth Council has stayed in contact with Soldier Wolf who is still fighting for the return of their relatives after Army spokesman Thomas Kane, who served as the Installation Legal Officer of Carlisle’s Army War College, said that the Army “...

has serious concerns related to this proposal.

The most obvious is that this cemetery has become part of our community and is a historic site.”

Last month, Soldier Wolf wrote a letter to LTC Greg W. Ank, Garrison Commander of Carlisle, saying that, “Our ancestors should not be a tourist attraction.

Our ancestors are no longer considered objects of research; they will no longer be considered roadside attractions.

These children were people; they were sons, daughters, nieces, nephews, future war chiefs, future mothers, grandmothers, grandfathers, and caretakers of this land.

For them to be taken away and never given back is appalling.”

As of press time, the Rosebud community had not heard from the federal agencies or the President regarding their request.

Smudging and Christianity

Christian Smudging Ceremony

February 21, 2013

https://sachemspeaks.wordpress.com/2013/02/21/christian-smudging-ceremony-2/

Smudging is in our Native American culture, Christian's culture and we must understand that smudging is also found in many other cultures such as the Occult.

I bring this up on every posting about smudging because in today's world, for some reason, the occult smudging and their ceremonies are showing up in our Native American culture/ceremonies.

This should never happen and must stop.

Why?

Because, smudging is really another type of prayer, a very important part, but is another way to pray.

The Occult has their god to smudge to; the Native Americans and Christians have their god to smudge.

However, these gods are 180 degrees out from one another.

Native Americans, Christians, Jews and Muslims pray to their god, the Creator of creation.

The Occult pray to their god, a creation.

Remember, when I talk about Native Americans, I am always speaking from the teaching of my ancestors, unless otherwise stated.

Water or Burial ceremony?

How is the water ceremony important during an American Indian burial ceremony?

We do not use water, unless a close family member of the Crossing ceremony is from a tribe in the central or western tribe and requests a time for one that prays to Creator, free of charge

(Except for a tobacco gift for use at the ceremony).

http://essential-wisdom.com/water_ceremony.html

We do not charge for ANY of our

SACRED CEREMONIES!

Yes, the tribes of the East Coast have a Water Ceremony.

It is nothing like the 'Plains and West Coast' ceremonies?

Not a thing wrong with their ceremonies, all of their ceremonies!

Only we, the true traditionalist of the Northeast,

Believe in keeping most of our Sacred Ceremonies between Creator (Kiehtan) and the people.

Between Kiehtan and our People?

Our Water Ceremony is a Clan Mother Ceremony, once a moon. (13 times a year)

Native American Shaman person in Florida

Native American Shamans in Florida

Sorry my friends, I need to write a book on this one.

Asking about a Native American Shaman, is like asking about a

Horsecow?

You can have a Horse and you can have a Cow.

So far, scientists have not been successful at being able to cross a Horse and a Cow

and come up with a Horsecow?

In other words you cannot cross a Native American with an Occult

and come up with a Nativeamericancccultperson

so no Shaman in a Native American Tribe

Please!

 

That said this is Florida the land of the strange,

so one might guess that anything is possible.

We have been in Florida for 16 years and have not found a

"True Traditional East Coast Native American Gathering?

I do believe that Florida is an East Coast State.

However, simply put, Native Americans,

the first people of this land,

believe and pray to Creator!

A Sharman prays to themselves

and/or

an inferior god, created by Creator.

So whose god is the true God of the People?

Native American Shamans in Florida

July 4, 2015 / sachemspeaks

This question about shamans in native tribes keeps coming up often since I started tracking your questions in the middle 1980’s

I have added a new page at the top of our Sachem Speaks blog in order to help explain better the questions most asked out on the internet.

WHAT IS A SHAMAN?

Shaman

A person regarded as having access to, and influence in, the world of good and evil spirits, especially among some people of northern Asia and North America.

Typically, such people enter a trance state during a ritual, and practice divination and healing.

In other words, one only has to smoke the funny weed to become a Native American Shaman.
