Sunday, October 25

Further Teachings of the Medicine Wheel: Working Creatively With the Elements of the Four Directions with Evan Pritchard, Professor of Native American Studies; Facilitated by Susan Wright, LMT, LCSW–R, ERYT

Working with Air

Workshop 1: 1:00 – 3:00pm Continuing to the southern direction of the wheel, the direction of air and wisdom, we will create a medicine wheel using commonly found feathers in the pattern of the Medicine Wheel. We will also each create a ribbon bundle embodying the seven directions of the wheel which we will take home and place in the wind where the prayers em- bodied in the ribbon will fly to the seventh level in the sky and beyond. We will also have a “talking feather” circle in which we allow spirit to speak through us to the others in the circle.

Workshop 2: 3:30 – 5:30pm
More advanced teachings about the sacredness of air in Algonquin culture, and how we can cultivate more of the wisdom of air in our speech, and our thoughts.

Individual workshop: Workshop 1 or 2: $35 (WM) $40 (NM); Both workshops: $60(WM) $70 (NM)
