The medicine of the Red God teaches us how to live. This medicine teaches us how to live in harmony with nature, with our world- and with one another.
Once we had medicine bundles, the collective unconscious of our tribes were carried in these. To the outsider they were a curiosity, to us they were our soul.
The ways of the animals mimic our own ways, we learn much by watching, by doing, by working- together.
We are not separate from the world, we are one with our world. We are the earth, we are the water, we are the air we breathe.
When we are grateful, with gratitude in our hearts, Mother Earth senses our vibrations and sends to us a teacher. This teacher can take many forms, the rocks, the sea, the clouds. Mother Earth sends to us the woodpecker, the snake and the trees.
Woodpecker medicine shows us how to drum the heartbeat of Mother Earth. To sing the sweet song of thanksgiving so that Mother Earth may speak to us and guide us on our path.
Sickness begins when the body is not whole. The trees, the birds, the animals, all speak to us of trust in one another, in sharing and providing for each other.
Just as the woodpecker tree provides for the woodpecker so too so the leaves provide for the snake.
The snake is the symbol of transformation. Healing and new life are a signature trait of the serpent. The snake has the ability to shed it's skin, as do we, and to renew itself into life once again. The snake turns poison into medicine but we, the people, must make that transition with the snake. We can not make the medicine bundle alone. We must heal, renew, transform.
