Greetings, Everyone! Osiyo!
Special Ceremonies Held For Quake/Tidal Wave Victims

Lets Help Bring The Earth Into Balance
By Jim PathFinder Ewing (Nvnehi Awatisgi)

Osiyo, Igi udo, Oginali, Gus di i dada dv ni,

We should hold prayers for the 22,000 souls whose lives were snuffed
out in an instant of terror by tremor and water on Sunday, Dec. 26.
Knowing that the Earth Mother quakes with the violence witnessed upon
her, this peace would be directed in appropriate manner, it would
seem, while praying and holding center for those whose lights have
been violently wrested from their bodies. It reflects a schism between
the Creator's will and the hearts and minds of the Earthly Mother and
of her children.

This peace prayed for, thus, would be of heaven and earth, and all
beings, however affected.

It would seem a good time to hold Medicine Wheel ceremonies, asking
for balance, peace and harmony. And for our sacred pipes (canupas) to
be employed, as sacred representations of this harmony and alignment
of male and female, above and below, centered in the hearts, our drums
as the consoling heartbeat of the love that is there for all.
There are many ceremonies taking place, at different times and by
different peoples (see below).

It is not as important as when one does ceremony, or even the precise
ceremony done, as that ceremony be done, individually or in groups,
bringing hearts and minds in alignment with peace and prayers for
balance and harmony for our Earthly Mother and all beings.

As an FYI, we will be holding (private) ceremony here in Lena, MS, in
midnight (CST) vigil, Tuesday, Nov. 28, employing Medicine Wheel
drumming, helping souls to the afterlife, with a special lodge
(asi/inipi) Friday, Dec. 31, at noon.
Aho.

Walk in Peace,
Aisv Nvwadohiyado,
Jim PathFinder Ewing

Dear Ones,

This is an important activation request coming from the Elders of the
Dineh (Navajo) Nation. Please forward widely and communicate to us if
you will be doing a gathering on this date. Also the list is in
formation, please email me bebird@aol.com, as soon as possible, if you
are interested in cosponsoring this event. Blessings

Betsy Stang

This is a call for Global Four Directions Prayer for Peace, a 24 hour
effort to end the war and global violence. We are asking all the
leaders and peacemakers to join us in this effort. The start date will
be 12 noon December 31, starting in the Eastern time zones, and
continuing through January 1.

On September 11, 2001, as a result of the tragedy,  we were all one
people and it is time for us to come back together with one heart, one
mind, one prayer, one intention to create a more peaceful world for
the generations to come and all our relations.

This activation comes as a request from some of the Four Directions
Elders and Medicine People as communicated to Grace Smith Yellow
Hammer. We are requesting spiritual leaders all over the globe to call
their people together in their sacred spaces so that all people, all
colors, all directions are included in this effort.

With all the devastation of war and escalation of terror and
environmental harm on the planet, it is obvious why we need to come
together at this time.

For those of you who will understand this, there was recently a
quarter moon in the morning with two stars within the crescent. This
along with the recent Venus alignment, is a potent call for an
activation because it signifies both danger and opportunity.

We hope you will be inspired to join us in this call. We are simply
asking all people of all races, all faiths, all traditions to pray for
peace and healing in whatever way is appropriate during this time and
to remember that as we link with one heart, one mind, one intention we
can heal the world one step at a time.

If you would like to cosponsor an event please contact us by email.

May peace prevail on Earth,

Sincerely,
Grace Smith Yellow Hammer , Dineh

Prayer & Healing Ceremony for Asian Nations Tuesday, December 28, 9:30
p.m. EST

We are profoundly affected by the recent tragedy that has claimed more
than 22,000 human lives in many parts of Asia.

We are all involved in this transition and healing process. In Lakota,
Mitakuye Oyasin ("We Are All Related").

Please consider joining in a community pipe ceremony on Tuesday,
December 28, at 9:30 p.m. EST to ease the transition and support the
healing process of the departed souls, the survivors and their loved
ones, as well as the Earth Mother undergoing her process of
transformation.

The sacred pipe in Native American tradition represents healing,
balance and unity. Whether you carry a pipe or join in some other form
of healing ceremony, please consider offering your prayers in
connection with this ritual. Details circulated by Rainbow Eagle in
North America are included below.

Please pass this along so the healing circle will be empowered by all
who might choose to participate.

In Love and Peace,

Aho! Community,

We want to let you know that we will be having a pipe ceremony at 9:30
p.m. on Tuesday evening (Ohio Time) 7:30 p.m. (Colorado Time) in
support of the relief efforts now taking place in the Eastern part of
the world. Our thoughts are with those who have lost loved ones, the
survivors, those who are attempting to provide aid and Mother Earth as
she makes her adjustments.

You may join us in whatever way you feel is appropriate. Some of you
have personal prayer pipes that you might choose to use in support of
your prayers. For those of you who are care-taking a regional or small
group pipe, you might share the pipe with others who want to come
together for prayer. If you can't be with us at the exact time
remember that Spirit knows no time limitations so you can "tune in"
whenever you are able to and still connect.

This is a time for all people to send love to our Earth Mother and to
all those who are in need of balance and healing. Let us extend the
spirit of community that we all experience together to those who need
it so much.
Love and Blessings,
Rainbow Eagle and Mary Rainbow Snake

Dear Students of Reiki:

Your help is greatly needed. Over 19,000 people have died and
1,000,000 have been displaced in South and Southeast Asia. An
underwater earthquake off the coast of Sumatra measuring 9.0 in
magnitude,  the largest in 40 years has sent devastating tsunamis to
six countries including Sri Lanka, India, Thailand, Indonesia, the
Maldives and Malaysia. Please send Reiki.

Sincerely,
William Lee Rand, International Center For Reiki Training
(www.reiki.org; Reiki@reiki.org)

Hello Beloved Friends,

If you feel in your heart that it is something you would like to do,
please light a candle for the countries, people who are going through
this earth quake clean-up and the ones who have made the transition.

Thank-you
