THE MOONS AND THE TOTEMS
The moon, or month, during which you were born determines your starting place on the Medicine Wheel and your beginning totem in the mineral, plant and animal kingdoms. The first moon of the year, the Earth Renewal Moon, marks the time when the Father Sun returns from his journey to the south and begins, once again, to precipitate growth in the Earth Mother and all of her children. This moon begins at the time of the winter solstice, which usually occurs on December 22. This is the first moon of Waboose, Spirit Keeper of the North. It is followed by the Rest and Cleansing Moon and the Big Winds Moon. The moons of Waboose, those of rest and renewal, bring the time to contemplate the growth of the previous year and prepare for the growth of the year to come.
Following the moons of Waboose are those of Wabun, Spirit Keeper of the East. These three moons are those of awakening growth, when the Father Sun begins to illuminate all of earth's children and prepare them to bring forth their proper fruit. The first moon of Wabun is the Budding Trees Moon, which begins at the time of the spring equinox, which usually occurs on March 21. The other moons of Wabun are the Frogs Return Moon and the Complanting Moon. The moons of Wabun are those of illumination and wisdom, as earth's children prepare to grow in their proper way.
Next come the moons of Shawnodese, Spirit Keeper of the South. These are the moons of rapid growth, when all the earth comes to flower and bears fruit for that year. The Strong Sun Moon is the first one of Shawnodese and begins on June 21, the time of the summer solstice. It is followed by the Ripe Berries Moon and the Harvest Moon. This is the season of growth and trust. Trust is necessary in this season, since growth is so rapid there isn't time to ponder progress.
The autumn is the season of Mudjekeewis, Spirit Keeper of the West. The first moon of Mudjekeewis is the Ducks Fly Moon, which begins on September 23, the day of the autumn equinox. It is followed by the Freeze Up Moon and the Long Snows Moon. These are the moons that bring us the time of introspection, the time of gathering strength to look within and contemplate the growth and progress made in the preceding seasons. These are the times to prepare for the season of resting and renewing to come.
Each moon has a particular totem, or emblem, in the mineral, plant and animal kingdoms, which shares characteristics with the people who are born during this time. From your starting totems you will learn about yourselves, at the same time you learn more about your other relations on the earth. People do have a responsibility to their totems, to give them respect, liking and gratitude for the lessons and the energies they contribute to the continuation of life on our common Earth Mother.
As you travel around the wheel, you should strive to learn as much as you can about the totems of any place that you stand, so you are always growing more knowledgeable about those who share the earth with you. When you stand in the place of a different moon, you have the capacity to take on the characteristics of the totems for that moon and to learn from them, as well as from your fellow two-leggeds. The more you are willing to learn, the further you can travel on your journey around the Medicine Wheel.
Remember as you read of the moons that not all people will have all of the same characteristics, even though they share the same moon and totems. All travel the wheel at their own speed. It is possible, during the time you stand at one position, to sometimes have moods or phases that seem more fitting to those of another moon. These can remind you of positions through which you have passed or give you hints of the places you'll be traveling to next. The important message of the Medicine Wheel is that you allow yourself to keep traveling, rather than tying yourself to one position and blocking your energies from growing and changing.

I met the Authors!

I met Sun Bear and was part of a Medicine Wheel weekend in Peterborough, NH in the early nineties. It was held at a YMCA camp in the middle of a forest abutting a lake. Friday night there was a welcoming at the mess hall. When I waked in Wind Waban asked me what my birthday was and when I told her she turned to the people in the hall and shouted. "Our sturgeon is here!" and every applauded. I was in shock, but Wind Waban said not to worry she would explain everything to me. I was to be part of the Medicine Wheel which was constructed in a ceremony on Saturday afternoon. It was a roped off enclosure with stones set about for the participants. The rope surrounding it had two purposes. To define the wheel and to hang medicine prayers which you wrote on a paper and folded it up in a felt bag and hung it on the rope. The wheel had one opening in the east where we all entered, took our positions and explained what we brought to the wheel. The Otter was wonderful. He came in sliding on his back with his feet and hands waving in the air. Everyone laughed. The last to enter was Great Spirit who was invisible and took the center position of the wheel. The door to the east was closed and the wheel was constructed. There were workshops during the day and a men's and woman's sweat lodge in the evening. During the day we all had time to talk to Sun Bear who was a very open and loving person as was Wind Waban and all the teachers. Sunday afternoon the wheel was deconstructed, a large fire was made with the branches from the sweat lodges and other wood. Hundreds of little prayer bags were thrown into the fire and the smoke carried the prayers up to Great Spirit. Sun Bear closed the retreat giving a warm speech thanking all of us for sharing the weekend with him. I was very sorry to hear of his passing several years later. This book holds his teachings and his love for humanity and the planet. I hope you enjoy it as much as I have.

This is a simple-to-understand book that will help you understand the energies of astrology, even if the "usual" astrology (Libra, Capricorn, Scorpio with houses/rising, etc) doesn't resonate. This book weaves the wisdom of Indigenous Americans through birth charts using clear language and animal alignments. This is a great book especially if you are struggling to understand astrology, but want to study the language of the stars to help you understand the people around you. The author is especially respectful of the learnings of the Indigenous tribe medicine from which he learned. Highly Recommended.

This was a replacement copy.

This purchace was to replace my original copy that had been sadly lost during a move! I had no idea that the book had been updated with modernized drawings. I was given the original copy by my shamen during a long period of time that I was out of balance with myself and my surroundings, reading it showed me the path to restore health and serenity to my journey through life. I used it as a reference book to maintaining good spiritual balance, and to help others do the same!
The lose of my original copy was tramatic to myself and those who had become accostomed to referencing it's pages. I recently came into some unexpected income and was finally able to replace my beloved Medicine wheel earth astrology book.
This is not a book of horoscopes it explains the relativity of nature's influences on us in regard to our birth. It also aides in choosing items for one's own medicine bags, and natural health! I am again peacfully at balance!!

Every now and again a book comes along that is really divinely inspired and truly helpful in gaining self knowledge as well as understanding of others. If you like astrology in general, this is a great look at earth astrology, which is a bit different from western astrology but also very similar as well.
