The Vision
The Mission is here: A gathering of women, the grandmothers, mothers and the daughters of all. To see our sisters, our friends and lovers who are ready to start something great. It’s all about you; it’s all about me, together it is “We”. Imagine how powerful this can be, listening to our heartbeats growing strong. A heartbeat that is a stand for Peace.
We the Turtle Women are rising, rising to help our mother, rising to witness her cries for the loss of all lives. We the Turtle Women are rising, rising to speak through our hearts, through the beat of the drum that connects all life for all times. We come together to shake loose the parasitic thinking in the heart of the wound.
We have no words. We have no anger. We are Turtle Women Rising, rising for Peace. Rising in Love, in Song, and in Prayer. Our faith grows strong in our own knowing. The Power of Love, the Power of life. Yes, we can imagine that.
We rise to support the tears of all life givers and hold in our hearts the pain of violence, the hope of healing. We are strengthened by the faith in our own walk. We are here to raise the vibration, and to bring the Light closer to ourselves, to each other. We are here to shine this Light on the wounds of our Mother who is so desperately trying to heal. This is the Light that will heal the holes in our hearts. Our drums resonate that Vibration, that Light, and the remembrance of Life.
All My Relations.
The Invitation
You are invited to participate in this intention of promoting Peace.
Come play and pray with us.
Turtle Women Rising are needed in Washington D. on October 10-13 2008 at Lincoln Memorial .
Bring your drums, prayers, and your songs.
This is a call out to all women who are invested in our future. Our mother is in need of healing; our hearts are in need of connection. Our children are in need of protection. Our lives are in need of saving. Join my sisters and me and we will unite our energies to raise the vibration of the Universe. Let us speak to the Earth Mother (Turtle Island), and let her know that we are taking action towards her healing. Let us realize our strength and power as women and together we will shine in our light of Love and Peace.
Most important let us speak to each other’s hearts and hold the energy of Peace. Peace cannot be given; it must be created in the hearts of the living. We cannot demand Peace, we can only become it. We cannot fight for Peace we can only live it. When the hearts of the people understand the power in the sharing of resources and in the re-creation of inter-dependence the world will know abundance, safety and joy for all living things. We will know Peace.
Every culture
holds the energy of the heartbeat that lives in the drum, giving all people this
ability to share in the language of the universe, the sound of life. The drum
beat is a form expression that allows our spirits to speak to each other’s
heart. It is a way to connect to all life without creating disagreements. Every
living thing has a vibration, a heartbeat. This vibration has the power to heal,
transform and raise consciousness to our minds, heal our hearts and activate our
bodies and feed our spirit.
The Cry for a Vision
Women have always been the nourishers of the world. Healing the world requires women to re-define the power of “we”. With faith, Love and forward thinking, we hold in our hearts the key to success. This key unleashes the power of changing our thinking, and how we see the world lies in the heartbeat of every woman.
Our earth mother, Turtle Island as she is called by some, is calling for her daughters to heed her warnings and help her heal her wounds. She calls out to us and asks us to pray. She asks us to connect our heartbeat, for hers grows faint as she weakens every day afflicted by the diseases created by the human. The grandmothers call us to nourish her and her children, our brothers and sisters.
We wait. We pray, and allow our children to die for the sake of the whole. Still, the power of life is taken for the sake of man. We lose one heartbeat after another for the sake of a few.
The wound is infected and many go to try and heal her. But the parasites continue to eat her with no relief in sight. As we move into a new vibration cycle in 2008 we are reminded that it is a time for change and pioneering a new shift in our thinking. The time has come for women to resolve to become leaders for the sake of the next 7 generations. It is time to organize, clear our minds and get to work.
It is time to
answer the call of our mother and to respond with the heartbeat that women know,
being the givers of life. We are called to restore balance to our earth mother.
We are called too help her gain her strength, to help her heal her wounds of
assaults, the poisoning and violations of her body.


There are three of us working now, but we open our hearts and minds to anyone who comes to work with us in a good way. Our spirits will soar as we approach October 10th - 13th this year and gather together to make a difference.
