Massive Medicine Wheel Set for May 8
Ok, only a little over 2 weeks to go for people who want to participate in this in the USA or Canada. So, I thought I'd post it here in GD for wider exposure.

The link at the end leads to maps, photos, and the full text of the story.


Massive Medicine Wheel Ceremony Set for May 8, 2004
- Peacekeepers Called to the Circle -

While dwelling amid the high mountains along the North American Continental Divide, Bennie LeBeau of the Eastern Shoshone tribe began to experience a torrent of dreams and visions, especially in 1999. The visions directed him to set in motion the plans for a massive Medicine Wheel Ceremony.

Over the last year Bennie LeBeau has become aware of many profoundly distressing changes in the land and the animals at Yellowstone National Park. These changes are becoming even more ominous right now, he says, and they have have prodded him into direct action to bring his visions alive.

The huge Medicine Wheel Ceremony that Bennie envisions is intended to be a mass spiritual event. The ceremony is set to take place at High Noon on Saturday, May 8, 2004 at more than 20 sacred sites in the American West, and at many other sacred sites elsewhere around the world, including Australia, Ecuador, Guatemala, and the Middle East.

The Grand Teton peaks in Wyoming -- The Four Grandmothers Standing Tall -- will serve as the center of this Medicine Wheel. The perimeter will extend out in a hoop 600 miles or more in radius, enveloping the long spine of the Rocky Mountains. Simultaneous prayer ceremonies at other sacred sites around world will help to re-activate and re-attune the web of subtle energy pathways that envelop planet earth.

"All nations, all peoples are invited to participate," Bennie says, adding, "all nations, all peoples are needed to work together on this -- the black, white, yellow, and red nations of Mother Earth."

3. Thank you for this
I live near one of the sites, and while I'd never intrude on one of the Pueblo ceremonies, I will remember to send them my thoughts on May 8.

5. The elders are calling for everyone -- all colors, all faiths
to participate. So if you feel good about it, you are welcome to attend. It is for everyone who wants to take part.

12. Have you a list of the exact sites?
I'm hoping that I'm somewhere near one out here in SoCal. If not, I can always gather all the pagans and witches I can to help out in our own way.

7. Thank you so much for sharing this
The Shoshone nation needs our help in asking forgiveness for harming the land.

8. Path to Survival
Edited on Fri Apr-23-04 04:26 PM by SpiralHawk
"Brothers and Sisters: We bring to your thought the understanding that right-minded human beings seek to promote above all else the life of all things.

"We direct to your minds that peace is not merely the absence of war, but the constant effort to maintain harmonious existence between all peoples, from individual to individual, and between humans and the other beings of this planet.

"We point out to you that a Spiritual Consciousness is the Path to Survival for Humankind."

- The Haudenosaunee (Iroquois) Declaration, 1979

9. This is very moving
I live just beyond the perimeter, so I will move within it that day and participate in my own way.

Thank you for posting about it.

11. Kick for those who keep the Clouds!
Thank you for bringing this to GD, SpiralHawk. This Ceremony will do much good for Mother. The least we can all do will be to send our thought energy toward the Medicine Wheel!
