The Sedona
Medicine Wheel Tour
 Sedona
has become a
true melting pot
of people where the sacred tools
of different cultures are available for
others to explore their
spirituality. Many people seem to resonate with Native American
teachings as they are based on understanding
our connection to a living
Earth where humans are but a part. These teachings bring our awareness
of blending the spiritual into the
workings of our everyday life. One
such teaching is the Medicine Wheel.
Even though
the Medicine Wheel is a ceremony with Native American
roots, we believe its teachings are timeless and can be applied to
living in our modern world by anyone with intentions of self-
discovery, healing, spiritual seeking and/or reconnecting
to the Earth.
Whether you are in Sedona as a single traveler, on a couple’s
retreat or as part of a group, the Medicine Wheel is the perfect tool
to set sacred space and begin the adventure within.
The Medicine Wheel is full of symbolism as it consists of an
equidistant cross within a circle. The circle represents the wholeness
and unity of all life and, as we step inside the circle, we come into
relationship with all life. This realization of inner unity is an
important aspect of the healing process as it dissolves the idea of
separation. As we establish a sacred bond with life around us, the
signs and omens omnipresent in nature come alive always sharing with us
where we are on our path. Life thus becomes more profound and
meaningful. The circle has no beginning and no end so that it becomes a
symbol of constant change and a realization of being able to flow with
the energies of life that exist all around us. Both the spiraling
vortex and circle are symbols which help bring our awareness to the
ever flowing energies of life.
The equidistant cross represents the search for balance as we attempt
to reconcile the opposites of life - masculine/feminine, night/day,
Heaven/ Earth, etc. When we are able to integrate the dualities of life
we are then able to come to a place of acceptance for the perfection
inherent in our nature and in others.
The cross divides the circle into four equal quadrants each represented
by a season, direction, element, color, animal totem and aspect of
being human. (click on each element to see its expression in Sedona.)
 East:
spring, air element,
yellow, eagle, child, mental
aspect
South:
summer,
fire element, red, coyote, teenager,
emotional aspect
West:
fall, water element, blue/black, bear, adult, spiritual aspect
North:
winter, earth element, white, buffalo, elder, physical aspect
From these teachings we can get a true barometer as to what energies
are at work with you and the ways you can flow with those energies into
balance. You will be able to recognize what strengths you utilize on
your path and also what may be blocking you from creating the life you
desire. True healing occurs when we are able to recognize and accept
all parts of ourselves and integrate them into wholeness.
 We
will begin our
ceremony by
introducing the use of the healing herb,
sage, which helps us to cleanse away old, unwanted energy and opens the
door to the spiritual world where all
life is interconnected. We will
then place ourselves in a wheel position from which we will share with
you the teachings of each quadrant and
allow some reflection time to
see how the teachings intersect with where you are on your
path.
Come join us to experience sacred ceremony in Sedona and open yourself
to the spiritual journey within!!!!
