Newton Center, Massachusetts



Welcome Newton Center, Massachusetts

And
Thank you for this visit to
Our sacred prayers at ceremonies
08/24/2011


 The only question asked as often as a question about
Native American tobacco
on my tracker
is a question about
our sacred prayers at ceremonies!

If a person of the blood and even people without, cannot follow the ancestors teaching's about our culture and ceremonies, let them leave the work to those that do!

If you keep pushing fake ceremonies that you know nothing about, your true colors are showing and only a fool will keep up the deception no matter how much evil money they have!
Remember my friend, one must always test before believing anything on the internet.

Welcome to our visitor from Kansas City



Welcome Kansas City, Kansas


Mind you it is over 1300 miles from Kansas City to Uncasvillage and about 550 miles to where our people started from many years ago in the Great Lakes area.

I like to write this every once in a while to remind all of my followers about the distance between our people and yours and that, at the time of our ancestors beginning, instructions from Creator as to culture and ceremonies, travel was slow at the very least.

Point being

One possible reason for a difference in culture and ceremonies.

For instance.

We use a group of herbs we call Kinnick Kinnick, you might call tobacco, tobacco is one of the herbs in our Kinnick Kinnick.

Everything dealing with our Kinnick Kinnick, it is in the left hand.

Why the left hand?
We believe that it is the closest to our heart.


Left hander Native Americans were not necessarily haft handed

Montréal, Quebec/Gatineau, Quebec


Thank you to both visitors from Quebec Canada.


You both
reminded me
of a few facts about our people,
ours and some of yours.


According to my elders now ancestors and some records out on the internet for all to read.

While I was growing up in Uncasvillage and learning from elders throughout Northern Native American Country, back when our ancestors were being abused

(putting it politely)!

Many of our people escaped out west and many escaped north to and around Quebec Canada!

Red is the color of all blood of the heart and all male, female, races, religion, sexual orientation and even the politicians in government pump ‘Red Blood’!

This is why our military go to war, to protect our people of Red Blood!

Cigarettes cause Cancer!

Our ancestors used Herbs (Kinnick-Kinnick), No poison cigarettes!

All Smudging in the ceremonies of our ancestors were and still are a prayer to Creator, at least throughout Native American Country!

You are at the top of New England and as you know, a state covered by all of our postings about the native people in Native American Country.

While traveling around Google you must have come across many posting about Native Weddings?

However, this is what was the teaching from our ancestors, a number of my elders came from your state as well as all around New England, New York and other states.

Next thing, please look up our tobacco (Kinnick-Kinnick).

I always enjoy these question Sheridan, Wyoming


Welcome to Sheridan, Wyoming
To

Tobacco (Herbs) as a Traditional Native American Gift
04/08/2011


I always enjoy this question because it gives me an honest chance to vent frustration against cigarettes.

Please always remember the distance from the little village of my ancestors and the area of the visitor, in this case Wyoming, looking for an answer?

I write to help our people keep the ancestors ways alive in the hearts and minds of our people and try to help correct some miss understandings in print lately.

That said

Please also remember that while our ancestors were using their herbs (Kinnick-Kinnick), there was no such thing as the chemicals being used by modern tobacco companies to get you hooked at spending your hard earned money just to die a horrible death smoking their poison cigarettes!

Sorry and thank you for allowing the venting.
I have watched far too many of my friends die this death from their cigarettes.

Herbs


Herbs from your area can be found all around your area, please contact a Clan Mother from a tribe in or around your area for the correct use of your herbs?

I am not sure why you came to visit this site however, I am well pleased that you did.

Because, as you can see, traditionalist following the ways of our ancestors
did not pollute our body's or Mother Earth,
as I am sure the same is with you.

The idea that our ancestors were savages is not only faults, but an oxymoron.

Thank-you for your visit.

P.S.

Did you know that some tribes east of the Mississippi river and maybe in your area, can hold ‘Sacred Ceremonies’ in hospitals, prisons, schools and such,

because Kinnick-Kinnick does not require fire?

Welcome to Arvada, Colorado

Welcome to
our/my
visitor
from
Arvada, Colorado

Although time and distance will prove to be a hiccup
between our culture and ceremonies,

And

The culture and ceremonies of tribes around your area.

I personally wish to thank you for your question.

You see,
my post is in need of a few explanations.

The following is my way to help understand
 



(Tobacco),
in our culture.

Creator created the 'Tobacco Plant' as I am sure that you will agree,
'along with everything else'!
 
Man placed poison chemicals into tobacco
just to hook humans on their type of tobacco.

Therefore, with this knowledge fresh in our minds,
creator also created all herbs.

We in our area of Native American Country, mix herbs,
along with the herb tobacco,
into our
 

prayer pouches.

And

In our little corner of
Native American Country,
we believe that Creator created herbs
for the free use by humans.

Therefore, we use herbs in our ceremonies for free.

You replacing our herb is
in no way mandatory or expected.

However,
it is a way to gift an elder.

And

Last but by no means least, all prayers are for a blessing from our Creator to someone or something.

As always, on the way down from Creator the blessings also are a blessing to the person making the prayer request!

This is the old post.
Native American Wedding Ceremony (Traditional)

6/9/11

"Do you offer tobacco at a Native American wedding?

Yes!

A good Traditional Spiritual Leader uses a lot of tobacco

(Kinnick ~ Kinnick)

And

Charges you nothing for the service.

So yes, a good traditional spiritual leader is always in need of the herbs

(Kinnick ~ Kinnick).

One should also remember that a tobacco gift given the correct way is a

Prayer for a blessing to the person receiving your gift, so you can gift this

herb anytime that you feel the need to.

Because a traditional Native American is always giving out this herb.

Receiving this herb is a blessing to the pocket.

Our gift given tobacco is

Kinnick~ Kinnick!"

I pray about this picture Daily.

(NO)!

It does not and can no longer function!

Embarq was bought by this company (Centurylink), and they did away with the websites back in 2004.

If you are interested you can give this site a try?

Native American Wedding Ceremony (Traditional)

06/09/2011


Do you offer tobacco at a Native American wedding?

Yes!

A good Traditional Spiritual Leader uses a lot of tobacco

(Kinnick ~ Kinnick).

First thing my long time followers might have notices about this post is that I allowed a picture with the word chief in it.

Something that, for the most part, is Taboo to every Traditionalist.

However

In this case, this is a school in the area of my ancestors and any Traditionalist Elder can adopt a school and put the students to work.

Remember

In our culture a chief is a temporary position and only a chief by appointment
by a
'Head Clan Mother'
or the
 Shechaim (Sachem).

I now charge the Students
(Chiefs),
 to learn why they now have the right
to be called a chief.

Both of the photos are of my last wedding
to a couple and their parents,
four very dear people of the clan,
before my retirement
and
our move south for my health.
The second is
Donna
and
Yours Truly.

To
Tobacco (Herbs) as a Traditional Native American Gift.
04/08/2011

We have been too I. U. for a number of gathering and found them to be

a 'milting pot' of tribal gatherings

From the North, South, East and Western Culture.

So

Remember while visiting
and of course,
 all are always welcome.

We are of tribes
over in the
Northeastern part
of 'Indian Country'.

Therefore, we have our own ceremonies and culture and not necessarily the same as gatherings that you are use to.

We were treated with great respect, as were every 'Royal Member' of other tribes and we always enjoyed those gatherings.

From Google
I have not heard the name Kelsey for over 30 years.

One of my father's (Shechaim Ohjieshan Ziek)
chief's and an elder on his committee meeting
from Waterford Connecticut
was another of my
Native American
Tutors.


Also
Remember the distances
between your state

Smudging is smudging

however,
the way and the material might differ.

London, Ontario, Canada

Welcome London, Ontario, Canada
Tobacco (Herbs) as a Traditional Native American Gift.
4/8/11


I am not sure is you know that, in spite of the distance from London Ontario to Uncasvillage USA, natives (the first people of the area, could still be related.

First


Our people came from
the Great Lakes Area.


Second

Our people were forced to leave our land over on the east coast in and around Uncasvillage because of the brutal treatment from the invading intruded from the east.

Tobacco (Herbs) as a Traditional Native American Gift.
That said, Tobacco (Kinnick Kinnick), might be gifted the same in both areas.

"Tobacco

(Herbs)

as a

Traditional Native American

Gift.

Because tobacco seems to be one of the most asked questions, I will write about this today.

Please understand that when talking about Traditional Tobacco Gift,

I write only as a traditionalist,

Therefore, tobacco is Kinnick - Kinnick (Herbs),

Tobacco no one would ever enjoy smoking.

A tobacco plant is an organic herb and always included into Kinnick - Kinnick before any type of chemical is used on it before or after picking.

Please also remember, there is nothing sacred about any chemical, they are all poison so, what you would be saying if gifting just a cigarettes as tobacco to this person is, have some poison!

Tobacco that is used in our pipe ceremonies and as a gift is called Kinnick - Kinnick.

At no time will a Traditional Native American encourage smoking non-native tobacco poisoned by chemicals, we use organic herbs only!

This herb can be found almost anywhere around your area for free.

If it is native to your area, natives in your area used it as their tobacco, Kinnick - Kinnick.

Sacred Kinnick - Kinnick should never be sold so make sure that no one tells you that it has been blessed and then tries to sell it to you are just trying to get more money out of you!

On Friday February 4, 2011 on this blog, I wrote, "Tobacco should only be used as a gift"

Eastern Woodland American Native Tobacco as a gift offering to Creator in prayer.

How and when to present a gift of tobacco to a Traditional American native? Any and every time that one wishes to speak with an elder and/or honor an elder, it should be by American native tobacco (Kinnick - Kinnick) gift.

How much is enough tobacco to present as a gift?

How much is not as important as how one gives the gift. First, make sure that the tobacco is Eastern Woodland herb, Kinnick - Kinnick, and then remind the receiver that this gift came from Mother Earth.

Because it did come from Mother Earth, it would be nice if it were wrapped in red, why red. Red represents women or Mother Earth.

What is American Native Kinnick - Kinnick?

Kinnick - Kinnick is herbs collected from Mother Earth with prayer of thanks to Creator and Mother Earth!

Do not believe an outsider from another tribe telling you that we all must use their tobacco, their way; this is the way of our people. AHO.

One does not almost hand our tobacco to an elder, because we are standing for an answer from an elder, that tobacco now belongs to elder."
