Lol, I took 4 different spirit animal quizzes and got 4 different animals. I got Beaver, Elephant, Bear, and Eagle.

Can I use it for getting bad medicine on me

I fully connect with your thoughts. When you explain the 5 steps, it sounds like something I should know naturally. If I had been asked the question, I may have come up with some of the same points. But for sure, it would have not be as sparkling clear and inviting as your words and heartfelt human to human message! Thank you from the bottom of my heart.

We are to identify by our Tribes

My Grandmother was born on an Indi Reservation in Oklahoma also my father was born in the Creek Nation

Indigenous is the root to indi-an however there are different cultures that a native to the indigenous people. Please don't be offended because therein the negative is a positive fact you are indigenous and therein this term Indi encapsulates you are Native to this land

@malloryroseco you should investigate his made up bullshit before you share this video and comment on it yourself

I have two small ones. Would love to share my Eagle story with you.

I just tried to visit the links for the downloads/blogs and the page comes up as error 404 not found. I hope that I’m not too late as this video appears to be 3yrs old.

Why animals just curious

This lady talks way to much and says nothing. She needs a refresher course. I ve done it for past 50 years. Must be a young thing now. Sorry lady.

4:35 Iike to where mine in both outside and in

I definitely do it at the end of the year to remove all that is negative and to welcome all that is positive

European did to Indigeneous people the SAME THINGS they did to Africans. It's stupid and funny when European (in Canada and USA) say to others "GO BACK TO YOUR COUNTRY"

FF to 1:47 for the actual steps.

I want to see your shoes

Do you have a catalog

My spirit animal found me but at first I didn't think much of seeing a Doe in the woods. However the experience was different from any other because she looked me in the eye. I remebered as a child growing up without my Mama I always felt a comfort (only a Mama can give) when I seen Does. The second time I seen a fawn napping by a tree and startled it. So it ran away calling out for it's Mama. The third time I was leaving a friends house and was amazed when I seen the woods behind her house were filled with Does and fawns . Then it came over me to ask to know the truth in myself and my creator. That night in my dream I was walking in the woods and came into a claring. My Mama was sitting in the claring with a Doe resting her head on my Mama's right knee. A Buck resting his head on my Mama's left knee. At the time I did not recognise my Mama because I was not raised by my Mama. My first thought about who I was seeing in front of me was vain. I thought to myself , " how unbecoming she looks like she belongs here ." The Buck lifted his head and looked my in the eye. I understood my thoughts could be heard , so there has to be more here than what I am seeing. So I looked again questioning with my heart , " who is she?" Then I seen a gold light and inside the light I seen her spirit . Her spirit was solid black so the light did not penetrate but cover her spirit. I knew this is my Mama's spirit in light who gave me life I am like. This world seperated me from my Mama's flesh to lead me away from Mama's teachings but did not seperate me from the light Mama gave me I passed onto my children. Also understanding this is true for the Doe's and their young. We were lead away from Mama's teachings and when that happened began eating the flesh of animals like the beasts do. We are not beasts. Our canniness are for penetrating fruits like apples and pears. I learned from the Doe and am working towards changing my diet because I am no beast. I am a Mama who does not want myself or my children to be hunted down to fill someones belly.

Uhhh ... You forgot to metion the Métis and Inuit.

I've been using one above my bed for decades. I never have nightmares, any more. (I used to). Is it just in my head or some thing else? Who cares ...I never have nightmares is all I know.

I smudge whenever I need it. But I wanted a video for a friend who asked how to do it. And I love your video. I love your energy and I love your vibe at teaching. I learned a few tips and I’m so grateful to you thank you so much. I am hitting the subscribe button now.

The colonization of turtle Island hasn't stopped or slowed down and it probably won't. The only way it will stop is each colonizer must know your a colonizer. No one can change another, that is up to them.

I'm new n want to learn how to smudge the home n each family member

I think if it's done by a non-indigenous person, it is hypocritical and rubs indigenous peoples' nose in it. How would you feel if some strangers invaded your home and decided to squat there? When you try to protest, they put a gun to your head. They assault your daughters and kill your husband. They eat your food and leave permanent stains on everything. As time goes on, they bring more friends and decide you, and your surviving daughters have to be relegated to the basement bathroom. If you try to stray, you better never come back. One day, they feel guilty and invite you into your own living room and say, "I just wanted to acknowledge you as the original owner of this house that we are all squatting on. We apologize for killing your partner, assaulting your daughters, eating your food, sticking you in the basement bathroom, and making your house filthy. In your honor, we are naming your garage after your last name in rememberance. Lastly, we thank you for this beautiful house and all of the good things in it, realizing that you took much better care of it and we've ruined it." Then you think it sounded pretty genuine, so you ask for your house back that you rightly own, and the squatters say, "Oh heeeelll no! We're staying here. We just feel guilty about what the first squatters did. Stay in the bathroom. We will let you own that, and promise we won't enter without your permission!" The next day, you wake up, and one of your daughters is missing and is never found.

When i burn sage it just smells like straight smoke i don’t really get the sage smell i want the stick itself has the hint of sage smell but when i lite it then mostly smells like smoke

Used to do huņblaycha on mt st Helens, helping keep fire and drums all night looking for the men on the hills around us. And, Sun Dance (wiwiņyaņg wačipi) in Goldendale on our Uncle Tyler's land. It was really something. Was supposed to take my father in law's place in sun dance and started training until uncle Tyler suddenly transitioned. Also, sweats were done at my in- laws land often. I still reread black elk speaks every 5 years or so. And i keep my staff i was gifted by uncle Tyler close by always with all my tobacco bundles always in our living room at home. I never knew such love as i did while i was with the Ghost Bear clan. Life would be so good being able to live that type of life all of the time.

Culture and heritage

I meditated a few times back in high school and i remember seeing a wolf everywhere in my mind back in those days i just took the quiz and my spirit animal is the raven

I really want to smudge more often but I cannot tolerate the aroma from Sage. What can do to handle this situation?

No bs….I legitimately thought this was for the game phasmaphobia… I was so confused 2 minutes in…

I don't know anything about this culture, I have however just found out that my my fifth great grandmother was of cree culture, providing I have the correct ancestry line which I am sure I have got. This is surprising but a nice surprise, hence I'm hear trying to find out about cree people. It does not show in my DNA test but that doesn't mean our family don't have ancestry roots.

Fascinating. I’m 78 & still willing to learn.

My Grandfather was and I know nothing of his whole side of the family. Born in Oklahoma and sent to the military. He died in the military. No one knows anything.

Because they rejected God's new covenant new commandment. A tribal dog will return to it's tribal vomit. It's time to start tying your canoes together my brothers. Either that of get out of the cities & flee to higher altitudes & latitudes as Noah's SE to NW tidal tsunamis Jesus warned us to watch & prepare for are coming. A house divided will never withstand these the birthing pains of this the millennium of climate change end times due to the mystery of the 7 star crossings Jesus God's Christ our Messiah held in his hand. Let the dead bury their dead & follow Jesus God's new covenant new commandment. Your being invaded, killed, replaced by the antichrist tribal religious nations of the middle far east fleeing Noah's SE to NW tidal wave tsunamis coming. Come out from among them & be separate. Buy an EM EV & leave the EM lights on for Christ's sake to siphon off Earth's increasing magnetosphere to mitigate climate disasters & create heaven on Earth fulfilling God's plan for his children.

About to burn my first sage❤

Can it be picked in the Winter or is it empty of medicine?

I have always extinguished the flame in a bowl of rice when I "finish", but I won't be doing that anymore. If my smudge stick still burns, I'll continue on. Thanks. I've always been told to open a window b4 beginning and close when done in order for the negative energy to leave. I was also told to "close" the ritual. I usually go through my home clapping loudly until I reach the open window. Any thoughts??

thank you

I did smuggle my new home like 4 days ago and I noticed right away I got home from work I was feeling tired and I awareness. I notice that celling fan from my house was shaking and moving all weird. I tried to not worry about that much and think that was the air from the heater (A/C vent). The house has 7 huge trees and last time I noticed that lanterns are hinging 2 or 3 in each tree. I don’t if it’s me or the house and my brain it’s everywhere overthinking. But I also feel deep calm inside of me and Im not afraid of anything. I always wanted to have my own home

Smudging is a CLOSED practice. It should NOT be done outside of the Indigenous community. Period.

I can tell by the way you say hoose, your house must be in Canada, eh?

I have 1 hanging above my bed... They r rly pretty, but also I believe that they rly do prevent bad dreams ^-^

This is an incredible and beautiful video! Thank you kindly for sharing.

I love the smell. Reminds me of frankincense from my Catholic Church days

Can anyone count how many lies and half truths are in this video

I've had an attachment for 41 years since I was7

Hi, I'm looking to start smudging and have purchased some bundles. I'm wondering if the bundls can be cut in half...as to not waste.

No

🇧🇷❤❤❤❤❤

I smudged myself a couple of years ago and felt tingling on my shoulder which was painful, the next day my pain was gone 2 days ago I did it again because my neck was hurting and now my whole back and neck are stiff, do I need to do it again
