Fire Shaman
Fire Shaman
Inspired by a Native American prophecy as told by Lee Brown. This is my Swiss Fire Shaman.
All 4 shamans wear the same 4 colored beaded necklace, with the only differences being that the woman have a triangle pointed down and the men have the triangle pointed up. Each shaman also have a Chakana behind them as well as symbols of their elements. I painted each shaman with eyes to see spirit and a rainbow 3rd eye to symbolize the coming together of all colors.
“At the beginning of this cycle of time, long ago, the Great Spirit came down and He made an appearance and He gathered the peoples of this earth together and He said to the human beings, "I'm going to send you to four directions and over time I'm going to change you to four colors, but I'm going to give you some teachings and you will call these the Original Teachings and when you come back together with each other you will share these so that you can live and have peace on earth, and a great civilization will come about."
“To the North the Great Spirit gave the white race of people the Guardianship of the fire. If you look at the center of many of the things they do you will find the fire. They say a light bulb is the white man's fire. If you look at the center of a car you will find a spark. If you look at the center of the airplane and the train you will find the fire. The fire consumes, and also moves. This is why it was the white brothers and sisters who began to move upon the face of the earth and reunite us as a human family.”
