This morning a doe followed by a spotted fawn crossed the back yard. Behind them was another, smaller doe,limping slightly. I recalled John "Fire" Lame Deer, who is an influence on my shamanic & talismanic practice. I recall learning the "stomp dance" at a pow wow held in his honor in 1974 in Cambridge, Mass when I was living North of Boston in Ipswich. I had never been to a pow wow before. The "fire"energy was very positive & intense, genuine. In yoga terms, this is pranic energy. I recall several people asking which tribe I belonged to--tribe? No one had ever made an issue before that, except for my late Dad, I am the only living member of my family who retains the physical characteristics of my great-grandmother, who was probably Shawnee.So when I saw that lame deer this morning I became alert. I kept on painting. All of our works are like sand paintings, they exist in the moment to catalyze awareness.Even if that might take 6000 years. Happy July 4!!
