The Blessing

02 Gaelyn & Mike prep for blessing Yarnell ZA (320x238)

We sat outside the sweat lodge about dusk where Mike gave me a powerful and loving blessing.

03 Starting smudge with feather (320x240)

Smudging with sage smoke helps centering, cleanses and serves as protection. 

04 Mike blessing Gaelyn with feather (320x240)

The Hopi say Eagle’s feather will carry prayers to the Creator as the Creator sent Eagle to the people.

05 Mike blessing Gaelyn with corn pollen (320x240)

Yellow corn pollen comes as a special gift for rebirth and growth.

I felt so calm yet filled with such positive loving energy.

Gaelyn, It was my pleasure! Everyone of us has the right and the authority, through faith, to use the name of the Son of Man for the benifit of others. It is only by faith that the spoken word has weight enough to create new realities. If we were told (and we were) that whatsoever we prayed for in that name, by faith,it would be given... so by faith, your words can create by the same power of the Most High Power Whose Ways Are Beautiful.

Create....

It is sad how traditional rituals like this disappear all over the world.
