Native American Spiritual Calendar

Ghost Dance 2018 Wall Calendar

At a time when Native American nations across America faced destruction, the Ghost Dance religion sprang forth to offer hope. It was in the late 1800s that the spiritual connections with the dance began.  The authorities at the time completely misunderstood the Ghost Dance which wasn’t anything new, they completely misunderstood most of anything that the Native People lived by. Because of the misguided understanding there was a  massacre of Sioux men, women, and children at Wounded Knee in 1890. Artist, J D Challenger, gives us some remarkable paintings in this calendar that just might renew the bonds of strength and dignity of the Native Americans to their most important history.

Southwest Ancestors Calendar

In the region of the United States now called the Southwest the Elders who came before us found that if they climbed the heights of a mesa alive with green trees that it would make a good place to live. That was around 550 A.D. These ancestors a plateau that was rich with water, soil, and wood to aide in survival. Over the course of some 800 years the mesa became the site of countless thriving villages that in today’s world would even be considered cities, at least some were that large. Mysteriously around 1300 A.D. the People left the lands behind but they left an extraordinary architectural and cultural heritage.
