Mountains, an Historical Perspective." Three hour program
with Evan Pritchard and Nancy Rowe Contact (845) 679-4827
Evan Pritchard will speak about the spiritual landscape of
the Hudson valley from an indigenous perspective. We will
explore the relationship the local Native Americans have had
with streams, rocks, and fire, and the possibility that they
left many signs for us in stone that are still here. With
Evan's guidance, we will experiment with dream walking and
explore the medicine wheel as an altar for honoring the earth,
sun and moon, measuring celestial "time" in a world
where there is no word for time. We will also use the medicine
wheel as a portal into the world of dream time and the ancient
prophecies, ones which foretold the exact moment of Henry
Hudson's arrival, and the problems that would arise for hundreds
of years afterwards, as well as the wisdom to solve those
problems gracefully. Bring both sides of your brain.
