(1)

Not-For-Profit that offers a safe, sacred and inclusive space for Indigenous healing ceremonies, and learning opportunities for reconciliation and reparation efforts. A sacred space to rent to All (Misiwe) My (Ni) Relations ~ to support holistic and healing services. Please visit our website www.misiwenirelations.ca for a more indepth description of the rooms available. All My Relations recognizes

our interconnection to each other, and is a prayer of oneness and harmony with all forms of life. I believe the below writing by author Richard Wagamese beautifully describes what the expression All My Relations means.

​

"From our deck the world reveals itself slowly detail by detail these summer mornings when morning becomes the ultimate painter. There's a sublime elegance to the way things come together. Light chases shadow into recess and what emerges stands stock still in the slow spill of sunlight as though surprised at its properties and definition. To be here as morning breaks is to feel unity. It's to feel connected to everything around you and to absorb it, bring it into the very fiber your being, like learning to breathe all over again. It's to come to understand that you are alive because everything else is. It is to comprehend what your people mean when they say "All my relations." It means everything. It's not uttered in a casual way nor is it meant to be. In its solemnity it is meant as a benediction, a blessing and a call to this unity you feel all around you in the depth of morning. This phrase, this articulation of spirit, is a clarion call to consciousness. It means that you recognize everything as alive and elemental to your being. There is nothing that matters less than anything else. By virtue of its being, all things are vital, necessary and a part of the grand whole, because unity cannot exist where exclusion is allowed to happen. This is the great teaching of this statement. "All my relations," means all. When a speaker makes this statement it's meant as recognition of the principles of harmony, unity and equality. It's a way of saying that you recognize your place in the universe and that you recognize the place of others and of other things in the realm of the real and the living. In that it is a powerful evocation of truth. Because when you say those words you mean everything that you are kin to. Not just those people who look like you, talk like you, act like you, sing, dance, celebrate, worship or pray like you. You also mean everything that relies on air, water, sunlight and the power of the Earth and the universe itself for sustenance and perpetuation. It's recognition of the fact that we are all one body moving through time and space together. To say these words is to offer a doorway to that understanding to those who hear you. It's to proclaim in one sentence that this experience of living is a process of coming together and that it was always meant to be. When you offer that doorway, you offer the most sublime truth. You offer the essential teaching. Your people say these words as an act of ceremony and here in this majestic light of morning you feel that ritual glow within you like an ember from a fire. All things connected. All things related. All things grown equally out of the one single act of Creation that spawned us. This is what you feel and this is what you mean. You come to realize too, that if we could all glean the power of this one short statement, we could change the world. We could evoke brotherhood and sisterhood. We could remind ourselves and each other that we need each other, that there is not a single life that is not important to the whole or a single thing that is not worth protecting and honoring. Here in the splendid light of morning you come to this truth again and seek to breathe it into you, to become it even for a fraction of a second. Truth requires only an instant from which to grow."

Journey well in the Spirit world Richard. My condolences to his loved ones for his recent passing.

SACRED SUNDAY ORACLE: May 3, 2026
π‘Ύπ’†π’π’„π’π’Žπ’† 𝑴𝑨𝒀!
"May, more than any other month of the year, wants us to feel most alive."
🌱 🌸 🌱
May was - and still is - a time for gathering flowers and greenery from the woods and fields to decorate homes and public spaces. This act of β€˜bringing in the May’ was both celebration and spell: a joyful welcoming of nature’s abundance, and an invitation to life and luck.
May is a time of renewal, and deep-rooted tradition. May was filled with age-old customs that honoured the land’s awakening and the turning of the farming year.
As the landscape shifts into the frothy bloom of May, nature enters a crescendo. This is the season of fertility, fire, and folklore; of burgeoning growth, wild revelry and prosperity for the season ahead.
May Folklore:
🌳 The Hawthorn tree is thought to be a tree of protection and can prevent lightning from striking the home and from storm damage when growing in the yard.
🐝 A swarm of bees in May makes a lucky day.
🌸 For good luck throughout the spring, bring branches into your home of forsythia, lilacs or other flowering shrubs from your region.
πŸ’§ Gathering the first dew on May mornings will guard against the evil eye.
πŸ’§ Washing the face with dew on May 1st can beautify the skin.

"π“π‘πž 𝐒𝐩𝐒𝐫𝐒𝐭 π€π§π’π¦πšπ₯ 𝐎𝐫𝐚𝐜π₯𝐞 is a Canadian made deck which features a host of beautiful animal and nature guides and their medicine. It is a tool to connect you to something bigger and more primal than your thinking mind; that something bigger and more primal? It is often your very own intuition; your own animal instinct.

Whatever I fear is the doorway… πŸͺΆ

This teaching reminds us that every living being shares the same life force.
How can we honour this connection in the way we care for the land?

"Seasons do not need to explain themselves or give warning of their impending change, they just arrive when they get here. They don't abide by human timelines and often slip back into old habits a time or two before completely transitioning.
(As Spring is clearly demonstrating!)
Human...You can show up as you are and one day decide to do some work and change, slip back a time or two, then show up again in a different state.
Personal growth needs no explaining or excusing. And is YOURS to carry.
There is a reason for the Seasons and Seasons change, in Nature and Life.
It's for you to decide what season you're in and if and when there is a need for change."

Today we have two of our favourite decks to choose from:
𝑻𝒉𝒆 𝑯𝒆𝒓𝒃𝒂𝒍 π‘¨π’”π’•π’“π’π’π’π’ˆπ’š 𝑢𝒓𝒂𝒄𝒍𝒆 is an introduction to the mystical art of astrological herbalism and how to use it as a form of divination. This oracle is a bridge to explore the supernatural gifts of plants and how to apply their personalities to everyday alchemy and reclaim ancient knowing.

𝑻𝒉𝒆 𝑼𝒓𝒃𝒂𝒏 π‘ͺπ’“π’π’˜ 𝑢𝒓𝒂𝒄𝒍𝒆 offers a message to the reader from the fascinating behaviour of these birds. Crows create a bridge between humans and nature.We learn from them; they learn from us. It is through crows that we are all connected.
