Sitting Bull was the first man to become chief of the entire Lakota Sioux nation.
Sitting Bull was born around 1831 into the Hunkpapa people, a Lakota Sioux tribe that roamed the Great Plains in what is now the Dakotas. He was initially called “Jumping Badger” by his family, but earned the boyhood nickname “Slow” for his quiet and deliberate demeanor. The future chief killed his first buffalo when he was just 10 years old. At 14, he joined a Hunkpapa raiding party and distinguished himself by knocking a Crow warrior from his horse with a tomahawk. In celebration of the boy’s bravery, his father relinquished his own name and transferred it to his son. From then on, Slow became known as Tatanka-Iyotanka, or “Sitting Bull.”
Sitting Bull was renowned for his skill in close quarters fighting and collected several red feathers representing wounds sustained in battle. As word of his exploits spread, his fellow warriors took to yelling, “Sitting Bull, I am he!” to intimidate their enemies during combat. The most stunning display of his courage came in 1872, when the Sioux clashed with the U.S. Army during a campaign to block construction of the Northern Pacific Railroad. As a symbol of his contempt for the soldiers, the middle-aged chief strolled out into the open and took a seat in front of their lines. Inviting several others to join him, he proceeded to have a long, leisurely smoke from his tobacco pipe, all the while ignoring the hail of bullets whizzing by his head. Upon finishing his pipe, Siting Bull carefully cleaned it and then walked off, still seemingly oblivious to the gunfire around him. His nephew White Bull would later call the act of defiance “the bravest deed possible.”

There’s a difference between trans male or female and Two Spirited male or female… I don’t understand why one would wish to be less than their fullness, or claim to be …
“Two Spirit” was not intended to be interchangeable with “LGBT Native American” or “Gay Indian”; rather, it was created in English (and then translated into Ojibwe), to serve as a pan-Indian unifier, to be used for general audiences instead of the traditional terms in Indigenous languages for what are diverse, culturally-specific ceremonial and social roles, that can vary widely (if and when they exist at all). Opinions vary as to whether or not this objective has succeeded. The decision to adopt this new, pan-Indian term was also made to distance themselves from non-Native gays and lesbians, as the term and identity of two-spirit “does not make sense” unless it is contextualized within a Native American or First Nations framework and traditional cultural understanding.”
It seems to me that trans male and female hate their born gender so greatly, they will go to any extreme to be its opposite. Extremes seem to be the chosen, personal announcement of self.
Two-Spirited people, to me, acknowledge their born nature, but also embrace their tendencies to the opposite gender roles.
One seeks to escape their born identity, the other is enhanced by it.
One requires physical character changes, the other is simply what it is.
Extremism and escapism vs acceptance and expansion.
October, the month of Huge Changes, is almost here. We are entering eclipse season. Mercury, Pluto & Saturn are going to go direct. The energy is swift, sudden, powerful & transformational. Universe is pushing you to move forward towards your life path & reacess your choices.
Seriously, some people refuse to change their life & then be mad at you cause they want you to perform miracles on them.
I’m sorry, there is a thing called Free Will. Use it to detach from your own toxicity. That’s how real healing works. I could cleanse your energy, activate your chakras to work in a healthy manner, but you going back to that toxic environment or habits would complicate things.
Inner/Shadow work can’t be replaced, anyone claiming otherwise is BSing & following the common business model of this industry. A healer’s true power lies in empowering you with skills & helping you recognize your own potential to heal yourself.
If you’re looking for an easy way out, you’re doing yourself disservice. You have to know how to work with open chakras, how to protect your energy, be mindful of choices you’re making, who you give access to in terms of allowing in your energy field.
Without this knowledge you’re basically a free flowing energy source for the sourceless, the chupacabras, energy vampires. And they would latch themselves to you until you’re back where you started. This is basic shit you’re not being told. This amounts to cheating people.
New Age Healers are no less than the doctors who give pills & cure nothing in long term. You cannot do someone’s inner work for them, neither can you remove their karmic lessons. You can surely become a participant in receiving karmic lessons that aren’t yours to deal with.
Saving yourself from exploitation, betrayal is your job. Common sense is going to be a growing necessity in coming times. Those who fail to achieve that state of mind & have an inner knowing of reading between the lines are going to be forced to deal with self created turmoils.
The cosmic energies around are going to force people to reveal their true intentions. The collective is going through a Dark Night of the Soul. Shocks will be common. Instead of resisting the truth, accept it. It’ll help you move on faster & you can move into healing mode.
These truths will revolve around general life related matters as well as interpersonal relationships. If you’re surrounded by energy vampires you’ll see them for what they are because they’ll keep putting it in your face.
Major relationship cycles will end with family/friends/romantic partners who are not for your highest good. North node in Taurus leaves little room for BS & flaky energy. Only grounded truths will make sense & provide comfort to the collective.
