Inspired by my recent experience at the Smithsonian Museum's Folklife Festival, which was honoring the Indigenous Voices of the Americas,an event at which all of us were invited to participate, learn and act as rightful descendants of all of those who lived on these lands centuries before us, we continue our journey around the Medicine Wheel. Today, we visit the East totem, Eagle, led by her screeching calls and her panoramic vision. Then we are called to the South by the howls of the inspiring and highly intelligent wolf, and explore their mythology. And we complete the circle of life by arriving at the West, where we find the Bear, an archaic icon of brutal force and persistent survival instincts. Come learn about these totems and follow us as we continue to discover the magic of the Medicine Wheel.
