WHITE
FEATHER
John met his Spirit Guide, Whitefeather, some years ago. Over
many months Whitefeather would take John back in time to his Village
to show him how life was like back then. They went hunting and
riding together and John discovered that Whitefeather was married
and had three children two boys and a girl.
During
these journeys Whitefeather was able to show John the Places where
they Camped during Summer and took refuge during the harsh Winter
months through to spring.
Johns
Spirit Guide was a Kiowa
Apache Shaman, a wise man, a Spiritual leader and tribal Healer
or medicine man as white people referred to them.
During
this time Whitefeather was able to present himself to John as
a Young Man, the Hunter in his late twenties, this is when they
go riding and hunting together. Whitefeather then presented himself
to John as he was in his late forties early fifties when he would
support John working with Spirit, finally Whitefeather presented
John with the Old and wise image of himself, The Elder and Teacher
that inspires the Circle and workshops that John and Whitefeather
deliver to others.
Whitefeather
lived on the earth plain for 75 years before passing to Spirit
in 1876 on Quartz mountain just outside ALTUS in Oklahoma, USA.
The Story that Whitefeather told John was that it was deep Winter
the people of the Village had taken Shelter in the Tree Line as
was the normal Custom for many Years.
The Hunting
that year had been very poor and food was scarce. With the lack
of food was the lack of Skins and pelts to make warm clothing.
Therefore, when the Snows arrived all in the village suffered
greatly.
As Hunger
crept into the camp one night Whitefeather made his way to a nearby
cave which was sacred within the nearby burial ground and simply
went to sleep and never woke up. He decided that the energy his
portion of food would have given him would be best served to the
children.
Some years
later evidence of this story was given to John through two very
dear friends Shelly Traver and John Boff who visited Quartz mountain
and found the cave spoken about by Whitefeather to John..
( It
is with enormous gratitude we thank Shelly and John who provided
the photographs of Quartz mountain (see below) for the Web Site
)
The
White Feather Lodge Development and Healing Sanctuary
The Sanctuary
was built from a converted garage, which was in major need of
repair; it was inspired by John's Spirit Guide, White Feather.
Stephen Harris, spent many hours of dedicated time and effort,
with the support of his wife and partner Sue in building the Sanctuary.
The aim was to create an environment that would offer a place
of comfort, support, upliftment and Healing to everyone who enters
the Sanctuary. The Sanctuary was cleansed and energised by John
who followed the directions of White Feather, by following a Native
American blessing ritual.
Johns Circle members at that time were Jayne, Janet, Jan and Ian
who also played an active part in committing the Healing Circles
energies for the Sanctuary. Maureen, John's partner and her daughter
Sue had the eye for detail that has given the Sanctuary its final
appearance. It
was through the efforts of everyone involved that the Sanctuary
was completed in less than seven months.
The Medicine Wheel
The Native Americans recognised the Power of Mother Earth and
the energies of Crystals. This was no more so in the Healing Wheel.
The Whitefeather
Lodge Development and Healing Sanctuary has a Medicine
Wheel in the exact Centre of its floor.
Although different Tribes used different Crystals, the Medicine
Wheel we have is a LACOTA Medicine Wheel and was made from
specific Crystals.
The Wheel
has Crystals which point to the Four Corners of the Earth (The
Four Points of the Compass). It also has an outer Circle of Turquoise
Crystals providing both Healing Energy but most of all PROTECTION
to the Sanctuary.
The Medicine
Wheel created a circle of energy, which the Shaman called
upon for Healing.
All of
the Crystals are genuine and have been donated by people from
around the country. Many people feel its energy when they enter
the Sanctuary for the first time.
We hope to post a Photograph of the medicine Wheel at a later
date.
CONNECTING
WITH SPIRIT
Back in
2001 John was having a weekend break in Somerset. Whitefeather
told John to go to Weston -Super- Mare a famous seaside resort
in that area. John
followed instructions and found himself outside a Hotel called
The Birchfield Hotel.
He went
inside and asked the Receptionist if it had a function room, it
had. So again by following White feather's instructions John made
a provisional booking for the following February.
Over the
following three weeks Whitefeather explained to John that they
were going to organise a "Special Event" called : CONNECTING
WITH SPIRIT
The first
event was a great success and is now an Annual event the next
one is booked for February 2009. Although the venue has now changed
the purpose of this event remains the same.
Since
that time the term "CONNECTING WITH SPIRIT" relates
to ALL the Work that John and Whitefeather do together. Hence
the name for this WEB Site being called Connecting with Spirit
NOTE
: Pictures from some of the Weston - Super - Mare events can be
viewed in the photographs.
The two pictures below are of Quartz Mountain in southwestern
Oklahoma USA, the place where Whitefeather died..
