I am a Shaman blessed with the rich heritage of African, Seminole, and Cherokee. My elders were my first teachers. I grew up in a household where my Great-great Grandmother, Great Grandmother, Grandmother, and Mother were all under one roof. And to say things would get interesting around that environment would be a gross understatement. But, looking back, I'll tell you that I wouldn't have traded it for anything in this world–it was a true treasure!

There were five constant male influences as I was growing up–my Grandfather, two biological Uncles; one “adoptive” Uncle, and my cousin Peter Chatman–better known to the world as “Memphis Slim”. It was never lost on me the dynamics of growing up in such a household with these powerful male and female energies. And I chose the path of learning all I could from both sides, and to walk the path of balance.

My tribal/ceremonial name is 'Standing Eagle', I am now 57 years old, and am considered an “Elder”. I've worn many “hats” on this Earthwalk–Student, Soldier and Combat Photojournalist; Spiritual Warrior, Teacher, Healer, Artist, and Shaman–and I'll offer my “Straight-Up”, “Reality Therapy” approach to Life and Spirituality to any that ask.

From a Dream/Vision I had on Fri, Oct 7, 2005, I've been tasked with conducting five ceremonies world-wide for peace over the next year, starting with the Winter Solstice on Dec 21, 2005. The others will be on the Equinoxes and Solstices in the upcoming years.

These ceremonies are for all of the people on the planet to participate in–yes even the organized religions if they are finally ready to step outside the boxes they are in, put all of their 'trumped up' differences aside, and work together as a collective human voice!

I would like to meet anyone that is walking a Spiritual path that is not confined by religious dogma. I walk the path of balance where I accept everyones path–because they are ALL VALID–there can never be just one path to get to enlightenment. We are all heading for the same “Goal line”–we're just using different languages, and cultural bases.

“Aho, Mitakuye Oyasin (We Are All Related)–

If the people lead, then the leaders will follow!

We Are One Planet,

We Are One People,

We Are One Mind,

We Are One Spirit!”

And as my Grandmother would say at the beginning of my training sessions, “Let us dance around the tree today with joy in our hearts, shake it and see what fruits it will drop for us this time around!”

Namaste and Brightest Blessings to you all!
