Sun-Moon Trip 2025

I believe that this is the eighth year that I will be going to do the Sun-Moon Dance, a prayer dance established by Joseph Rael, also known as Beautiful Painted Arrow, at Sweet Beautiful Waters Peace Chamber in Tucson Arizona.   I have written about the dances Joseph Rael established, and my experiences with dancing them in this book.  If you know me, and are in touch with me, I'd be glad to give you a copy.  Or you can buy it on Amazon.  The book explains why I dance, and how I got involved in these dances, and what is involved. My sister's blog article . My sister, Mathilda Wheeler supported me back in 2018, and described her experience with the dance. But suppose you don't have time for all of that, and just want to know what I will be doing. We gather on a Thursday morning at the dance site in the Sonoma Desert, which is about as close as a desert can get to being a forest.  A double circle of posts has been set into the ground around a small tree.  We...

 I'm about to take off on a trip that will last most of April.  I will be going from my home in Washington Crossing, Pennsylvania to Tucson, Arizona, where I will take part in a four day prayer dance in the Sonoran desert.  Then I will drive back home by a southern route, going across Texas and then up north in the east, visiting various friends and relatives.  On the way, I hope to spend significant time amounts of time in prayer and thought. For now, I am dong things to prepare for the trip.  Setting up this blog to keep friends and family posted with thoughts and experiences along the way.  Aargh.  It has been many years since I have set up a new blog.  Needing to discover again how to make it look the way I want it to.  Preparing gifts for the people I will be dancing with, and who will be dancing with me.  Two of my sisters are dancing for the first time.  I've made ribbon shirts for all of us, each a bit different but all in t...
