Every medicine wheel is an energy spiral created to provide a place of prayer and meditation. A
Place to diagnose and heal spiritual and mental as well as the resulting physical problems.
It is entered from the North for spiritual or physical problems and for prayer. You circle three times clockwise when entering because you are going into the spiral. Then going either to the marker related to your problem or the marker
You feel drawn to (much more effective). After you finish what you are doing, you circle out
Counterclockwise to allow normal function of your system after the intense energy work is finished.
Enter from the West for self-knowledge.
Enter from the South to achieve growth in any area of your life.
Use the Eastern entrance to receive guidance for your life.
Enter from the North for healing and spiritual growth.
For your own medicine wheel, you will need 5 or more marker stones. Before you start, cleanse yourself by smudging with Sage. You spiral in clockwise with the first stone, raise it and ask the Great Mystery to use this stone to symbolize the Creator or God. From this time onward the wheel is a sacred place, where healing and change are it's normal function. Place the marker gently on Mother Earth, in the center of your wheel. Spiral outward and select the next marker.
Spiral back in and ask the Great Mystery to use this marker to symbolize the presence of the Spirit of Vision, Illumination, and Clarity then place it in the East. Spiral back outward to obtain another marker.
Repeat the process, asking that the marker represent the Spirit of Growth, Trust and Love. Place this marker in the South.
Repeat the process, asking that the marker symbolize the presence of the Spirit of Introspection, Experience and Strength. Place this marker in the West.
Repeat the process another time, asking that the marker represent the Spirit of Cleansing, Renewal and Purity. Place this marker in the North.
Now go to the location within the wheel, which you feel drawn to.
When you have felt the energy, vision or knowing that you need, spiral outward and offer a gift of thanksgiving for the gift you were given, this can be a handful of cornmeal, sage or it
Can be a gift you feel necessary to give to ALL MY RELATIONS.
Remember this wheel is a place of prayer and meditation, but you will find the four legged and feathered are drawn to it also. You will also find its energy with use expands far beyond the rim of this wheel, bringing increased growth to the plants and even helps to heal Mother Earth.
