All Systems Are Go for the May 8 Medicine Wheel
-- Envelops All of Western America --
With less than a week to go, the entire, vast Medicine Wheel Ceremony set for May 8 is set to go forward.
This unprecedented gathering will encompass the American West, and completely envelop the Rocky Mountains. It will involve traditional Native American peoples in cooperation with people of all other racial, national, and spiritual traditions in a unified effort to help re-establish the health of the Earth.
Locations and contacts around the American West -- and in many other places around the world -- have been set. Dozens of people have come forward to serve as contacts and facilitators. Many thousands of people are expected to participate.
After two months on the road, Medicine Wheel visionary and organizer Bennie LeBeau has just returned home to Wyoming to make final preparations for the ceremony at the center of the Wheel, the Grand Teton mountains. He said all 20 sites that are part of the Wheel -- and many others in support -- have been prepared. He said, "Tribes and people from other cultures all around the Wheel have been joining to participate. It is working really well so far, and the ceremonies just have final preparations to complete before May 8."
He mentioned that the specific location of the Grand Teton ceremony would now likely be the Eastern Shoshone Sundance Grounds, but that interested people should check the relevant web sites (see below) later this week for final confirmation of the place to go.
Much concerning the ceremony has changed in recent weeks. For the latest information about what is happening and where to go if you wish to participate, please check the following web sites -- which are continually being updated.
