Between Samhain and Dia De Los Muertos the veil between the spirit world and this physical plain is very thin. Traditionally, this is a time of scrying, using prophetic powers, celebrating your ancestors and connecting with those on the other side.
Here are pics from my photoshoot with Juhl. Today we honor the life of Lozen, a medicine woman and midwife turned warrior and protectress of her people. There is a lot of misinformation and mythology surrounding the relations between native indigenous people and white settlers. The cavalry often showed up in the middle of the night and murdered women and children while the men were away, sometimes on Reservation Land, before moving the remaining Natives in the morning to other reservations or prison camps. Lozen defended her people, and used her psychic sense to gain knowledge about the enemy. I believe the collective soul of Native Americans must be healed and mended for all that they endured standing up for peace, justice and the right to their homeland, but I wonder at the collective soul of their tormentors' whose souls will forever be haunted.
In Wicca, it is believed that whatever you put out into the world comes back threefold. The concept is similar to dharma. Gratitude for your ancestors' many gifts and appreciation for their struggles is important and helps souls stay at peace, or find it. Listen to your angels, ancestors and spirit guides, you owe it to them! Vibrate with what is good and holy on the earth. Celebrate life and pray for cosmic allignment, truth and justice to prevail. Pray that light is shed on the darkest recesses of humanity and that consciousness, compassion, humanity and love wins over all.
