| The Navajo Ts'aa' contain the total history of the Dine/Navajos and all., The origin, creations of earth and cosmos. On the development of cultures of the people and their philosophy. In the Dine/Navajo philosophy there is only one origin. The origin is explain by colors. These colors are blood-red, black and white. The numbers are use in odd/even, multiple of each number and are added like the Fibonnaci number series of many things like animals, plants, people, ..this is very much in consistent with the Navajo way of origin story. The symbols are conceived and/or given by the "Diyin Dine'e-The Holy people, and implemented and developed. colors, knowledge..., The Ts'aa' is in a colors of the red, black and white. The center is the origin, the Blessing way; the Ts'aa' is a logarithmic of 13 spirals in outward/upward progression from the center. To the right is a famous Pythragora math and philosophy. The interesting thing about this is the relationship with the Navajo woven rug dress. Just a note that the traditional proto type dress is in colors of red and black.

| The picture below on the left is the Navajo Ye'ii' masks of the Nightway, an arche-type traditional winter ceremony. The one on the right is from Paraguay of South America; an Archaeologist by the name of Bernardo Diaz send it to me for a comparative study. Theory that Navajo migrated from the south been around over a centuries. But our own story tells us that we came from the west, from the island/land of the 'Changing woman'. The five major group of people returned to the earth by rainbow to the west coast. The journey/migrations began from there down/up the coast and into in-land. Interesting here is the story of the Snake people-the "To ahani" of the Navajo people today. To ahani was once one of the major culture of the world. The "Near the water" or in another way of saying or in complete concept is "Tooh ahani". Tooh is ocean and rivers. The 13 Mayan's water reservoirs could be "To ahani". Changing woman gave a white cane and a snake for cultural symbol from the past and into the future. carlos_mundy@hotmail.com |
