HOW EARTHDRUM CAME TO BE AND OUR INTENTIONS

Graywolf is a Tuscarora man who loves and respects the Lakota Nation and has long been drawn to the spiritual traditions of this nation. I am a Minniconjou Lakota woman who has long been drawn to the People of the Longhouse and the Peacemaker. Graywolf grew up on the Tuscarora Rez in New York and follows the Longhouse tradtition. His Grandmother was a Clan Mother. My Lakota grandfather was adopted by an Irish father and German Mother and raised in Nebraska.  My Lakota ancestors speak to me in dreams and visions.

When we met on another Native American website my brother Graywolf shared a story of his encounter with wolves at Crater Lake Oregon at a time when I needed healing and that true story brought the blessing help of the Wolf Spirit back into my life at a hard time. It became a saving gift for me and opened the door so that my Lakota ancestors could renew their contact with me.  From there Graywolf became a friend and brother and we started this website. Graywolf's Uncle Bud was a Tuscarora Medicine Man. He once said to us he had no problem with the word Shaman being applied to him since his work was like the work of the Shamans.  He worked in the world of the spirits and with plants and herbs to heal and help.

Bud taught Graywolf and gave permission to share some things but as you may understand the traditions of the People of the Longhouse are not entirely open and so there are things that cannot be shared. Bud Blessed this site though and allowed us to use some pictures that one would normally never see.  These are pictures he permitted to be shared here on this website.

Graywolf and I are both interested in the indigenous traditions of the whole world.  He is half Irish so has ties there as do I and I have ties to Egypt. My ties are to Old Egypt so that is reflected here on this website as well.  We both love the great diversity on our planet and  also the deep unity that binds us all together. Our journey reflects that. Our love for Mother Earth and our desire to heal and help Mother Earth is the heart of that journey and our work. We wish to be of service to all our relations.  We hope those who come here will share their journey with us as much as they can or wish to do.  Many Blessings.  C.
