Events Description
The Hopi Peoples foretold about the coming changes Indigenous people would experience when the eagle landed on the moon. Soon it will be 56 years since that eagle landed. Our Earth Mother is experiencing her first spring of the year, but everything is still frozen. We need to heed the lessons that we have already learned that have kept our fires burning.
In her March workshop, Marilyn Dykstra will explore what has already been shared with us:
- What protocols have been practiced to strengthen our communities?
- How do we assist the ones who have been working for more than a half a century to shield our Indigenous ways of being, integrity and sovereignty?
- How do we help our younger ones grow within that time tested knowledge?
It’s simple: it is time to return to ceremony, smoke our pipes, and celebrate the upcoming Spring Equinox. We will reaffirm our responsibility to practice, protect and promote our Indigenous ways of being with all generations.
Let’s strengthen our circle by re‐committing to Reconcili‐ACTION where we practice humility. We call others in, and not call them out. Let’s move Canadians towards our interconnected futures in humility.
Workshop
This workshop is part of a monthly Wahkowtowin and Ways of Being series led by Knowledge Keeper Marilyn Dykstra. Each month, we will explore a variety of moon, pole and tea teachings in the Cree tradition.
Wahkowtowin – which translates to kinship – highlights how relationships, communities and the natural world are all interconnected.
Participants will discover and reflect on their connections with each other, with balance and with human rights through teachings and a traditional tea.
