Pipe Dreams

Siyu,

Sacred Pipe To all my brothers and sister, once again the Phoenix rises and I try to write something that the people can use in life, both spiritualy and physically through PIPE DREAMS.

Who am I. A man on an appointed path by Creator. My name is Wolf who Walks Alone at Night Through the Desert, (Desert Wolf). I was told to give the knowledge of the pipe to those who are on their walk and are ready for the pipe. To give it freely as it was given to me by Spirit. To teach is the best part of my path. I was told to teach after my vision task. I have seen many beautiful pipes over the years, many good people received the knowledge of the pipe. May they all walk a good walk.

The difference between having a pipe and being a Pipe Carrier is:

To care for a pipe is a committment to honor Creator, Grandmother Earth, all the directions and in between, Grandmothers and Grandfathers, self, and all your relations. Use your pipe to pray and to talk to them, to let them talk to you.

To be a Pipe Carrier is a responsibility of the committment to the pipe. To be ready to use the pipe anytime anywhere to give and receive prayers when asked. Being humble with Honor to do so. To do this from your heart, this is a Pipe Carriers way. To know the ceremony in your heart and spirit, to say the prayers aloud, and to let all hear. To know fully the way of the pipe. To be a Pipe Carrier another Pipe Carrier must see in them the heart and committment that is necessary to be a carrier, keeper of this sacred path of the pipe, and tell them they are a Pipe Carrier.

I am Desert Wolf, Pipe Creator, Pipe Carrier and Chief of the Florida Wolf Clan. The Wolf Clan is small locally, with members all over the U.S. We teach tradional ways, learn from Spirit and walkers of the Red Road who know the way of the Old Ones.

As Free Cherokees we are all family. We all have some to teach and some to learn. There are many different versions of a specific ceremony, just as there are many different people who use them. If Creator says it's good, it's good. The way of the Old Ones is given to us when Creator sees we are ready, through Spitit or walker of the Red Road, we get what we need on our walk.

The Buffalo Calfwoman said to me "This is what you will do, this is your path, the way of the pipe."

Wado Creator, Grandmother Earth, Buffalo Calfwoman, Spirits of all the directions.
Wado in the name of all my relations.
