+Though not born of the Nation I have always felt like a child of the people as some time you get the feeling of being from an other time and place I feel great heart ache in reading "Trail of Tears" with so any good people being lost along the way. May Peace soon be upon Mother Earth.
autumn equinox I hope those wishing to are in preparation for our Cherokee New Year which falls on Oct 15th this year. It's on the first new moon after the equinox. . Some are forgiving others, old debts are forgiven, cleaning all your homes, buildings, vehicles, and be ready to cleanse your home with a cedar smudging around
Oct 15th. Some other old ways are giving away older food and replenishing, gifts to those you want to like elders etc, have new clothes to put on after going to water. I do my cleaning etc up to the new moon then use cedar to cleanse then go to water before sun rises on the night of the 15 th this year. You can go anytime after midnight but before sun up on the 16th. If you can't do it on those days just know that's when we would and go whens best according to when you can go.
most important thing! If you have a fire you need to clean it all out and start a new fire on the new year. Some have indoor fires but some only have outdoor fires.
I know who I am in the theory of existence and spirit...but I don't know where I come from
This was kept secret from me growing up. I am told what I am like pieces of pie divided between different peoples and that some are just lucky enough to have more of me than most...so to speak.
I have more Cherokee blood in me than any other nationality or tribe, but I am not greater than 50% anything...so what am I?
I ask my mom...she tells me that I look white so I should say I am.
Am I Cherokee?
Am I Caucasian?
Or am I just a pie cut into different pieces and belong nowhere?
When I'm asked on job applications I just mark "prefer not to say" cause I feel like the pie that belongs nowhere. Especially when they tell you that you can only mark one...
