SKY SPIRIT
by Leslie Drake-Robinson

In Indian Lore the Bald Eagle symbolizes swiftness, strength, courage, wisdom, keen sight, illumination of the spirit, healing, creation, knowledge of magic, ability to see hidden spiritual truths, and the rising above the material to see the world as it really is.

WHEN EAGLE SPEAKS By Ghostwalker

To walk in beauty is to celebrate the Sacred Dance of Life, To join the Circle with an open mind and an open heart, and to move at our own pace with clarity, kindness, and a sense of calm. To walk in beauty, is to understand and practice the way of right relationship and to appreciate all of the beauty that exists both within and all around us. Eagle asks, "Do you want to learn how to fly? Do you want to see the great Creation through my eyes? Do you want to dance on the wind as I do?" The young boy and the young girl dance, offering thanks for all things,walking in step with the universe and its eternal movements. The young boy and the young girl dance. Within them, all around them, Creation dances in its sacred rhythm, and keeps on dancing. When Eagle speaks, he speaks in the way that he moves. He speaks with his eyes, with his balance, with his presence. He speaks from the energy and power of the Four Directions, and their sacred flow. He speaks from the "Galun'lati," the Above World, and from "A-lo-hi," Mother Earth, the Center. He speaks from the truth that soars in his heart and his spirit. And as he speaks, he walks in beauty. And so, it is good.

Remember,
remember the circle of the sky
the stars and the brown eagle
The supernatural winds
breathing night and day
From the four directions

Remember,
remember the great life of the sun
breathing on the earth
It lies upon the earth
to bring out life upon the earth
life covering the earth

Remember,
remember the sacredness of things
running streams and dwellings
The young within the nest
a hearth for sacred fire
the holy flame of fire
