A timeless song born on a magical night

On the Spring and Vernal Equinox some Native Americans celebrate by doing a purification sweat lodge and ceremonial cactus tea. The event lasts from sunset to sunrise. This song was born on such a night.

Medicine Wheel a man for all seasons.
He'll travel round the wheel in search of a reason.
If he only makes it halfway, he is only half a man.
Medicine Wheel a man for all seasons.

He'll travel round the wheel until it ends...
though the learning wheel of life never ends.

To the north lies wisdom and the clearing sky,
the south is of perceiving,
wherever our heart lies,
to the east illumination...
where the eagle flies
the west introspection...
to look deep inside.

Medicine Wheel a man for all seasons.
Medicine Wheel a man of the heart.

Travel round the wheel till it ends...
though the learning wheel of life... never ends.

Song Comments

Folk Goddess Bo-ho Ra-di-o
Michael suggested that his IAC page is "Folk Goddess friendly", and he was right! I chose "Medicine Wheel" because I like the song and because I thought if folks gave a listen it might pique their curiosity as to what a medicine wheel is and why these lyrics are what they are! Check it out! And, ooh, if you know anything about numerology and you look at this song's page, you'll notice that this song was added on May "22" at "2:22"... 22 is quite a spiritual master number... which synchronistically goes very well with "medicine wheels".
