A Simple Medicine Wheel Table

While researching on the web (I am organizing a shamanic weekend) I discovered a simple, but effective set of tables to interpret Sun Bear’s Medicine Wheel Earth Astrology (Sun Bear and Wabun). More information can be found HERE. What I especially liked was this person’s interpretation of the table for the Southern Hemisphere, where they live.

Proof again that Shamanism is about adaptation and that we are ALL Rainbow Warriors!

The tables are as follows:

Buddha I am not, nor Gandhi or even The Devil (though there are some who will heartily disagree with the last). I am a seeker – a seeker of knowledge about why I am here, how I came to be here and where I am headed when I leave. Seems simple enough, but somehow this has become a lifelong search, not quite an obsession but much more than a passing interest.
