Before you enter consider...

You will have to sit in the sand and draw, or draw on paper the circle you need to see with the naked eye the truth of the Medicine Wheel I need to share with you. The Medicines, and the understandings you hold as a young man have been taught to you for the purpose of you discovering who you are. It is really about restoration of memory. That is the trick of Medicine Work. Part of our process is to remember. That is why introspection is so important and lives directly across from Illumination, in the East. 

A lot of women will open their legs for you, son. What you decide is based upon what your father taught you, the lessons learned from the insights of men in your life who care and are wise enough to be considerate of who you are and teach what they know to you. You see, knowing how to live is the Earth Walk, and is what I name this teaching.

Draw a circle. Starting where the sun arises is behavior/inspiration, the southern part is perception and your wisdom. In the western lodge is the will and the future, and up north is wisdom where it is cold and the polarities can be seen clearly without illusion.
