 7. Prophecy Rock ~
 
 
  The famous "Prophecy Rock" petroglyph (image 
			right) is known as the Hopi 
			Life Plan. Some people claim that the petroglyph was carved in the 
			20th century. A Hopi man (a resident of Old Oraibi) whom I met at 
			Prophecy Rock told me it did not exist when he was a youth in the 
			1970s. The following explanation, transmitted by LeVan Martineau, 
			was provided by the Hotevila faction and approved by the 
			traditionalist Hopi elders: 
				
				"In the figure of the Life Plan, (a) represents
				Maasaw pointing to 
			the earth from which the Hopi emerged. The short lines (b) between 
			his right hand and foot represent the Hopi clans. In recent years, 
			the Hopi added a bow to the right of Maasaw to illustrate his 
			instructions to lay down their weapons and live in peace. With his 
			left hand, he is touching the path of Life Plan (c) which the Hopi 
			are to follow. The circle (d) near his left hand represents the 
			Hopi’s stewardship over Turtle Island. 
 "Point (e) indicates the time when, as 
				Maasaw predicted, the Hopi 
			would digress from the True Path and follow another trail. The 
			square (f) at this point is supposed to represent Oraibi. The two 
			lines leading from Oraibi mark the split that occurred in 1905 
			between the progressive Oraibi and traditionalist 
				Hotevila factions. 
			The upper line (g) branching from the square is the false path of 
			the wicked people who strive to dominate Nature and rise above other 
			people without the guidance of God. The three human figures (h) on 
			the false path are the generations of wicked people who walk that 
			way. Hopi elders claim that in recent times, heads were added to the 
			symbols. The lack of heads would represent the punishment of death 
			that will befall the wicked.
 
 "Two zig-zag lines (I) branch from the false path. They represent 
			carelessness and different paths to the final destruction pursued by 
			the wicked people. Each zig and zag is another evil intention that 
			eventually will be exhausted, which is indicated by the drooping 
			symbol for turning around or sagging down (j) at their ends.
 
 "The lower straight line (k) is the true path of life leading to 
			everlasting life (l), symbolized by the masked figure of Maasaw (o). 
			He holds a planting stick in one hand while touching a corn stalk 
			with the other. Maasaw stands waiting at the end of the True Path of 
			Life because, as he says, ‘I am the first and I am the last.’
 
 "The True Path is interrupted in three places by arches (m) which 
			might have been complete circles at some time in the past. These are 
			said to represent gourds, symbolizing three great ‘shakings’ or wars 
			that will rattle humanity before the Life Plan is fulfilled. Hopi 
			elders say the third gourd is the ‘final war of purification in 
			which all evil will be destroyed.’
 
 "Line (n), which also resembles a corn stalk, connects the false 
			path with the true way. It offers a last chance for the wicked to 
			repent and return to the Path of Life. The two dead-end zig-zag 
			trails indicate complete and permanent destruction of body and soul, 
			since they continue for only a short distance beyond the point of no 
			return.
 
 "Symbol (p) is obscured by scratches, but 
				the Hopis claim it is a 
			crucifix, added to the petroglyph after a bloody 17th century 
			encounter with the Spanish. The symbol was at Maasaw’s behest to 
			show that Christianity is incompatible with the Hopi Life Plan, and 
			should not merge with it." (10)
 
			The three figures on the upper path also have been interpreted to 
			mean the white man’s inventions of the wagon and automobile, the 
			train, and the airplane.

 8. Deganawida ~
 
 Deganawida ("He the Thinker") was a wise prophet of 
			the Iroquois. He 
			lived at the same time as the great chief Hiawatha, circa 1500. At 
			that time the Iroquois nations were at war among themselves. Deganawida was given a vision of a gigantic spruce tree which 
			reached up to the sky to the Elder Brothers, symbolizing the Family 
			of Humanity. Deganawida began to preach a religion of love and 
			harmony, thereby bringing unity to the Iroquois nations, a great 
			confederacy that lasted more than 300 years. In another vision, 
			Deganawida foresaw the destiny of the native Americans. That vision 
			was transmitted orally until Edmund Wilson published it in his 
			Apologies to the Iroquois:
 
				
				"When Deganawida was leaving the Indians in the Bay of Quinte in 
			Ontario, he told them that they would face a time of great 
			suffering. They would distrust their leaders and the principles of 
			peace of the League, and a great white serpent [Caucasians] was to 
			come upon the Iroquois. For a time, it would intermingle with the 
			Indian people and be accepted by the Indians, who would treat the 
			serpent as a friend. This serpent would in time become so powerful 
			that it would attempt to destroy the Indians; the serpent was 
			described as choking the life’s blood out of the Indian people. 
			Deganawida told the Indians that they would seem to be lost, but 
			when things looked their darkest a red serpent [China] would come 
			from the north and approach the white serpent, which would be 
			terrified; upon seeing the red serpent, he would release the Indian, 
			who would fall to the ground like a helpless child, and the white 
			serpent would turn all its attention to the red serpent.  
				  
				This 
			bewilderment would cause the white serpent to accept the red serpent 
			momentarily. The white serpent would be stunned and take part of the 
			red serpent and accept him. Then there will be a heated argument and 
			a fight. Then the Indian revives and crawls toward the land of the 
			hilly country where he would assemble his people together and they 
			would renew their faith and the principles of peace that Deganawida 
			had established. There would at the same time exist among the 
			Indians a great love and forgiveness for his brother, and in this 
			gathering would come streams from all over --- not only the 
			Iroquois, but from all over --- and they would gather in the hilly 
			country, and they would renew their friendship. Deganawida said they 
			would remain neutral in this fight between the white serpent and the 
				red serpent. 
 "At the time they were watching the two serpents locked in this 
			battle, a great message would come to them and make them ever so 
			humble, and when they had become that humble, they will be waiting 
			for a young leader, an Indian boy, possibly in his teens, who would 
			become a choice seer. Nobody knows who he is or where he comes from, 
			but he will be given great power and would be heard by thousands, 
			and he would give them the guidance and the hope to refrain from 
			going back to their land and he would become the accepted leader. 
			Deganaweda said that they will gather in the land of the hilly 
			country between the branches of an elm tree, and they should burn 
			tobacco and call upon Deganawida by name when they are facing their 
			darkest hours, and he will return. Deganawida said that as the 
			choice seer speaks to the Indians, they will notice to south a black 
			serpent [Africans] coming from the sea. He is described as dripping 
			with salt water. And as he stands there, he rests for a spell to get 
			his breath, all the time watching to the north to the land where the 
			white serpent and the red serpent are fighting.
 
 "Deganawida said that the battle between the white and the red 
				serpents would open slowly, then become so violent that the 
			mountains would crack and the rivers would boil and the fish would 
			turn up their bellies. He said that there would be no leaves on the 
			trees in that area. There would be no grass, and strange bugs and 
			beetles would crawl from the ground and attack both serpents. He 
			said that a great heat would cause the stench of death to sicken 
			both serpents. And then, as the boy seer is watching this fight, the 
			red serpent reaches around the back of the white serpent and pulls 
			from him a hair. The hair suddenly turns into a woman, a white woman 
			who tells him strange things that he knows to be true, but he wants 
			to hear them again. When this white woman finished telling these 
			things, he takes her and gently places her on a rock with great love 
			and respect, and then he becomes infuriated at what he has heard, so 
			he makes a beeline for the north, and he enters the battle between 
			the red and white serpents with such speed and anger that he defeats 
			the two serpents who have already become battle-weary.
 
 "When he finishes, he stands on the chest of the 
				white serpent, and 
			he boasts and puts his chest out like he’s the conqueror, and he 
			looks for another serpent to conquer. He looks to the land of the 
			hilly country and then he sees the Indian standing there with his 
			arms folded and looking so noble that he knows that this Indian is 
			not the one that he should fight. The next direction he will face 
			will be eastward, and at that time he will be momentarily blinded by 
			a light that is many times brighter than the sun. The light will be 
			coming from the east to the west over the water, and when the black 
			serpent regains his sight, he becomes terrified and makes a run for 
			the sea. He dips into the sea and swims away in a southerly 
			direction, and shall never again be seen by the Indians.
 
 "The 
				white serpent revives, and he, too, sees this light, and he 
			makes a feeble attempt to gather himself and to go toward that 
			light. A portion of the white serpent refuses to leave, but instead 
			makes its way toward the land of the hilly people. The red serpent 
			would revive and he would shiver with a great fear when he sees that 
			light. He would crawl toward the north and leave a bloody trail, and 
			he would never be seen again by the Indians. Deganawida said that as 
			this light approaches he would be that light, and he would return to 
			his Indian people would be a greater nation than they ever were 
			before." (11)

 9. Crazy Horse ~
 
 The Teton Sioux Chief Crazy Horse received this vision toward the 
			end of his life:
 
				
				"He saw his people being driven into spiritual darkness and poverty 
			while the white people prospered in a material way all around them. 
			But even in the darkest times, he saw that the eyes of a few of his 
			people kept the light of dawn and the wisdom of the earth, which 
			they passed on to some of their grandchildren. He saw the coming of 
			automobiles and airplanes, and twice he saw the great darkness and 
			heard the screams and explosions when millions of people died in two 
			great world wars. 
 "But he saw, after the second great war passed, a time come when his 
			people began to awaken, not all at once, but a few here and there, 
			and then more and more, and he saw that they were dancing in a 
			beautiful light of the Spirit World under the Sacred Tree even while 
			still on Earth. Then he was amazed to see that dancing under the 
			tree were representatives of all races who had become brothers, and 
			he realized that the world would be made new again and in peace and 
			harmony not just by his people, but by members of all races of 
			mankind." (12)

 10. Sioux & Navajo, &c ~
 
 The Oglala Sioux have a myth of the end times:
 
				
				"At the beginning of Time, a buffalo was placed in the West to stem 
			the flooding waters. Every year this buffalo loses a hair, and 
			during every age, a leg. When he is without hair and legs the waters 
			will flood in, and a world cycle will come to its end. It is said 
			that the buffalo now stands on one leg and is almost bald." (13, 14)
				 
			Several other Indian seers, and whole groups of Sun-Dancers, have 
			received visions which deserve notice here. The Seneca Grandfather 
			Moses Shongo (died ca. 1925) foresaw a 25-year period of 
			purification, lasting until the year 2012 or so, during which the 
			Earth will purge itself. 
 In the late 1980s, while the Blackfeet people were convening their 
			sacred Sun Dance, the skies darkened with black storm clouds that 
			hid the sun. Then there was utter stillness. The clouds withdrew 
			from around the sun, and a white cloud appeared in its place. The 
			cloud drew near, changing its shape until it assumed the form of a 
			man, suspended in mid-air and visible to the people. The being 
			spoke, telling them "Do not be disturbed, but to be patient a little 
			while longer, for He would come again and lead them out of the 
			darkness into the light, and they would not suffer the same way 
			again". Meanwhile, the people were to purify themselves with prayer 
			and sweat lodges. Thus, they would be prepared to receive Him when 
			He returned to live with them and lead them to peace at home.(15)
 
 The oral traditions of the Navajo also warn of the Time of the End. 
			The Navajo expect a New Faith to come to them, like the dawn. At 
			first, only a few people who are prepared and awaiting the event 
			will be aware of it. Then more and more people, and eventually 
			everyone, will see it. The Navajo chants say that there are two 
			signs of the new Spirit. The first is a Nine-pointed Star that will 
			come from the East and unify all races and nations with love. The 
			second sign will be a great chief, also in the east, who will wear a 
			headdress with twelve feathers. Each feather represents a spiritual 
			principle which he will teach. The Navajo Unity Chant says:
 
				
				"In the Day of Unity you will walk in beauty; the beauty will walk 
			before you; the beauty will walk behind you; you will be surrounded 
			by beauty. Through the beautiful teachings of a new Prophet of God, 
			these meanings will become very clear. Man himself in this Age has 
			found many ways to create beauty. With these beautiful things we 
			must now have beautiful minds. With beautiful minds we will have 
			beautiful hearts. With beautiful hearts we will talk in beauty. The 
			speech of all men will be in beauty... Those who speak with 
			beautiful speech will lead the world to beauty... The center of this 
			beautiful speech comes from a Holy Mountain..."  
			In May 1996, a 96-year old Navajo woman named 
			Irene Yazzie claimed 
			she was visited by two tribal deities at her hogan near Big Mountain 
			in northeast Arizona. The deities, one of whom was identified as 
			Maasaw, appeared as old men. They warned Yazzie thus:  
				
				"Drought, poverty and desolation on the reservation are all proof 
			that the Navajos are in grave danger if they continue to forsake 
			their traditions."  
			In June 1996, the Star Knowledge Conference and Sun Dance was held 
			on the Yankton Indian Reservation in South Dakota. The gathering was 
			convoked in response to a vision received by Standing Elk, a 
			spiritual leader of the Lakota Sioux. According to the vision (and 
			in fulfillment of Sioux and Hopi prophecies), 
			Native Americans were 
			to share their knowledge about extra-terrestrial Star Nations. 
			Shamans and spokespersons from a dozen tribes came because they too 
			had seen signs which indicated that they were to reveal their secret 
			oral traditions about their tribal origins among the stars, and the 
			return of the Star nations. In his address, Oglala Sioux holy man 
			Floyd Hand said:  
				
				"Each Native American tribe has its 
				extra-terrestrial race 
			[ancestors]. The Star People will return in the latter part of the 
			1990s. Changes will happen as their time draws near. The first sign 
			is floods, fire, and earthquakes. There will be a world Great 
			Drought in 1997-1999. Many will starve. There will be destruction of 
			electrical and sewer lines, loss of cities and many lives. In 1998 
			White Buffalo Calf Woman is coming back to Turtle Island [North 
			America]. There are four omens. The First Omen was the recent birth 
			of a white buffalo calf on a White ranch, whose hide eventually 
			turned the other colors of the Four Nations (yellow, red and black). 
			The Second Omen was the birth of another white buffalo calf to a 
			Sioux rancher, but it died... The Third Omen was a third white calf, 
			but no one is listening despite human suffering and death. The 
			Fourth Omen will be the Star People coming and visiting in Santa Fe, 
			New Mexico."  
			The Dakota shaman Wambdi Wicasu (Deer Man) advised the gathering 
			thus:  
				
				"The Star Nations are here to help us... We have to help the Earth 
			come back into balance. Time as you know it is coming to an end, and 
			sooner than you think. There will be no more cars or TVs." 
				 
			Judi Pope Koteen transmitted the following prophecy as it was told 
			to Ghost Wolf, a Lakota pipe carrier and ceremonial leader:  
				
				"I will tell you a prophecy given to me by a 
				Grandmother of the 
			Seneca people. She told me we must work with the women to help heal 
			their pain. In these times that are coming, she told me, we must 
			learn to help women regain their power. If the women do not reclaim 
			their power, it is told, the world will be lost. Because the men no 
			longer act like men. They are not noble or proud, and they do not 
			hold the words of the Creator close to their hearts. 
 "Men have become sick with ego, sick with greed, lost in confusion. 
			They are no longer leaders, so their children do not learn, and the 
			children wander aimlessly through life, without spirit. A human 
			without spirit is like a ship without a sail. All you can do is 
			float around, hoping to find a harbor.
 
 "The Grandmother told me that in these times it will be the women 
			who come to listen to these ways. It is the women who will remember 
			who they are. Because women have lived for many thousands of years 
			now, knowing who they were but never being able to speak the truth 
			through their mouths. When the people left the Good Red Road and 
			began to walk the black ribbon of road, the women were suppressed 
			because the women kept warning the men that they were wandering from 
			the ways...
 
 "Heal the women. Then the women can heal the men, and together they 
			can heal the earth.
 
 "I will speak to you now of another prophecy. In the next decade, 
			the Star People that you call meteorites will come to this earth in 
			answer to the Mother’s call for help. You see, we are all relations. 
			So the Star People are beings, and they are the planets, and the 
			other bodies in the heavens as well.
 
 "The Sacred Mother is screaming for life and the meteorites will 
			hear her cries and answer her call for help. They will hit the earth 
			from the heavens with such force that many internal things will 
			happen as well as external. The earth will move as a result of the 
			impact. This will cause the sacred fire that is the source of all 
			life to the Mother to move through her body. She is like a Great 
			Bird within the egg, trying to crack out...
 
 "The rains will change their fall and the winds will alter their 
			course and what has existed for 300 years will no longer exist. And 
			where there is summer, there will be fall. And where there is fall, 
			there will be winter. And where there is winter, there will be 
			spring.
 
 "The animals and plants will become confused. The animals will think 
			it is spring in the winter, and the cherries will come to blossom, 
			and die in the frost. And in the summer, the winds will come from 
			the North and the blanket of purity will fall and the fruit will 
			die. And the animals that you raise will not be able to graze... 
			These are the changes the Mother will warn us with.
 
 "There will be great plagues that you do not understand. Many of 
			these plagues are born from your scientists whose intentions have 
			gone awry. Your scientists have let these monsters loose upon the 
			land. These plagues will spread through your waters and through your 
			blood and through your food because you have disrupted the natural 
			chain through which your Mother cleanses herself.
 
 "Only those who have learned to live on the land where the waters 
			run pure... will find sanctuary. Go to where the eagles fly, to 
			where the wolf roams, to where the bear lives. Here you will find 
			life because they will always go to where the water is pure and the 
			air can be breathed. Live where the trees, the lungs of this earth, 
			purify the air. Go to where the trees give, from their breath to 
			you, the cleansing and the purity, to where they protect you from 
			the plagues... Snow is the great purifier. Go to where the blanket 
			heals. Learn to live in these places. You will live through the 
			changes... There is a time coming, beyond the weather. The veil 
			between the physical and the spiritual world is thinning; it is 
			coming back to life..." (15)

 11. Tecumseh ~
 
 The great Shawnee chief, Tecumseh, was a warrior, a diplomat, a 
			peacemaker and a prophet. He accurately prophesied to the day the 
			great earthquake at New Madrid, IL (December 18, 1811) several 
			months before it occurred. Tecumseh and his brother organized a 
			confederacy of tribes to fight the menace of the United States. 
			After the Battle of Tippecanoe (1811), in which his brother Tenskwatawa was defeated, 
			Chief Techumseh sent a message, delivered 
			by prisoners he released to General William H. Harrison:
 
				
				"Harrison will not win this year to be the great chief. But he may 
			win next year. If he does, he will not finish his term. He will die 
			in office."    
				One of the prisoners argued, "But Chief Tecumseh, no president has 
			ever died in office".    
				"Harrison will die, I tell you," Tecumseh said. "And when he dies 
			you will remember the deaths of my people. You think that I have 
			lost my powers: I who caused the sun to darken and red men to give 
			up firewater. But I tell you Harrison will die. And after him, every 
			great chief chosen every twenty years thereafter will die. And when 
			each one dies, let everyone remember the death of our people." 
				 
			Before Tecumseh left for the Battle of the Thames in Canada (October 
			13, 1813), he gave away his possessions and made this prophecy to Tenskwatawa:  
				
				"Brother, be of good cheer. Before one winter shall pass, the chance 
			will yet come to build our nation and drive the Americans from our 
			land. If this should fail, then a curse shall be upon the great 
			chief of the Americans, if they shall ever pick Harrison to lead 
			them. 
 "His days in power shall be cut short. And for every twenty winters 
			following, the days in power of the great chief which they shall 
			select shall be cut short. Our people shall not be the instrument to 
			shorten their time. Either the Great Spirit shall shorten their days 
			or their own people shall shoot them.
 
 "This is not all. Each contest to select their great chief shall be 
			marked by sharp divisions within their nation. Within seven winters 
			of each contest, there shall be a war among their people, either 
			within their nation or with other nations, I know not which. Our 
			people shall prosper only if they can avoid these wars."
 
			When President Harrison died of pneumonia on April 4, 1841, many 
			began to believe in Tecumseh's curse. Since then, every president 
			elected in a "0" year has been shot or otherwise died in office. 
 L.J. Jensen noted, in 1935, that since 1840, when Saturn and Jupiter 
			began conjuncting in earth signs, every U.S. President who was 
			elected in those periods died during his term in office:
 
				
					
						
						
						William 
			Harrison (1841, pneumonia)
						
						Abraham Lincoln (1865, assassinated)
						
						James Garfield (1881)
						
						William McKinley (1901)
						
						Warren Harding 
			(1923)
						
						Franklin Roosevelt (1945)
						
						John F. Kennedy (1963, 
			assassinated)
						
						Only two presidents elected at 20-year intervals 
			before 1840 did not die in office: Thomas Jefferson and James 
			Monroe (30, 31)  
			The last conjunction of Jupiter and Saturn occurred in 1980 in the 
			air sign Libra. President Reagan was shot soon after but was 
			resurrected. The next conjunction of Saturn and Jupiter will be in 
			23o Taurus in May 2000, affecting the reign of President-select 
			George W. Bush, Jr. 
 The 20-year cycle has been analyzed by the Fisher Exact Probability 
			test and yields a statistical significance level of 0.00004, which 
			is to say that there is only a very low possibility that the 20-year 
			cycle is due to chance.
 
 The statistical and theoretical difficulties of analyzing the cycle 
			have been treated by the mathematician Michael Capobianco using a 
			more conservative technique which still yields statistically 
			significant results (0.012). According to Capobianco,
 
				
				“There is 
			slightly better than one chance in a hundred that the seven deaths 
			would have occurred in this way... The average interval of 20.44 
			years [between presidential deaths in office] is nearly the same 
			length as the interval for the double cycle in sunspots (21.22 
			years). Furthermore, the presidential deaths always occurred near 
			the extreme dip in the sunspot cycle." 
			In the opinion of astrologer
			David Williams,  
				
				“The cycle became inoperative in 1981 because the 
			Jupiter-Saturn conjunction fell in the air sign of Libra.”

 12. Stalking Wolf ~
 
 In the 1920s, the Apache elder Stalking Wolf, who was the mentor of 
			master tracker Tom Brown, Jr., received this horrid vision of the 
			self-destruction of white men in North America. Only one sign 
			remains to be fulfilled before the Purification begins:
 
				
				"The Earth is dying. The destruction of man is close, so very close, 
			and we must all work to change that path of destruction. We must pay 
			for the sins of our grandfathers and grandmothers, for we have long 
			been a society that kills its grandchildren to feed its children. 
			There can be no rest, and we cannot run away; far too many in the 
			past have run away. It is very easy to live a spiritual life away 
			from man, but the truth of Vision, in spiritual life, can only be 
			tested and become a reality when lived near society... 
 "I had a Vision... of the destruction of man. But man was given four 
			warnings to that destruction, two of which gave man a chance to 
			change his ways and two of which would give the children of the 
			Earth time to escape the Creator’s wrath...
 
 "They will be obvious to you and to those who have learned to listen 
			to the spirit of the Earth, but to those who live within the flesh 
			and know only flesh, there is no knowing or understanding. When 
			these signs, these warnings and prophecies, are made manifest, then 
			you will understand the urgency of what I speak. Then you will 
			understand why people must not just work for their own spiritual 
			rapture but to bring that rapture to the consciousness of modern 
			man".
 
			The spirit of a warrior appeared to 
			Stalking Wolf and transported 
			him to another time and place, saying:  
				
				"These are the things yet to come that will mark the destruction of 
			man. These things you may never see, but you must work to stop them 
			and pass these warnings on to your grandchildren. They are the 
			possible futures of what will come to pass if man does not obey the 
			laws of Creation and the Creator. There are four signs, four 
			warnings, that only the children of the earth will understand. Each 
			warning marks the beginning of a possible future, and as each 
			warning becomes reality, so too does the future it marks." 
				 
			The first sign was of a
			famine in Africa. Stalking Wolf found 
			himself in a dying village. The spirit of a shaman spoke to him, 
			saying:  
				
				"Welcome to what will be called the land of starvation. The world 
			will one day look upon all of this with horror and will blame the 
			famine on the weather and the Earth. This will be the first warning 
			to the world that man cannot live beyond the laws of Creation, nor 
			can he fight Nature. If the world sees that it is to blame for this 
			famine, this senseless starvation, then a great lesson will be 
			learned. But I am afraid that the world will not blame itself but 
			that the blame will be placed on Nature. The world will not see that 
			it created this place of death by forcing these people to have 
			larger families. When the natural laws of the land were broken, the 
			people starved, as Nature starves the deer in winter when their 
			numbers are too many for the land to bear... 
 "These people should have been left alone. They once understood how 
			to live with the Earth, and their wealth was measured in happiness, 
			love and peace. But all of that was taken from them when the world 
			saw theirs as a primitive society. It was then that the world showed 
			them how to farm and live in a less primitive way. It was the world 
			that forced them to live outside the laws of creation and as a 
			result is now forcing them to die...
 
 "This will be the first sign. There will come starvation before and 
			after this starvation, but none will capture the attention of the 
			world with such impact as does this one. The children of the Earth 
			will know the lessons that are held in all of this pain and death, 
			but the world will only see it as drought and famine, blaming Nature 
			instead of itself.”
 
 "It is during the years of the famine, the first sign, that man will 
			be plagued by a disease... that will sweep the land and terrorize 
			the masses. The white coats [doctors] will have no answers for the 
			people and a great cry will arise across the land. The disease will 
			be born of monkeys, drugs and sex. It will destroy man from the 
			inside, making common sickness a killing disease. Mankind will bring 
			this disease upon himself as a result of his life, his worship of 
			sex and drugs, and a way of life away from Nature. This, too, is a 
			part of the first warning, but again man will not heed this warning 
			and he will continue to worship the false gods of sex and the 
			unconscious spirit of drugs.
 
 "The drugs will produce wars in the cities of man, and the nations 
			will arise against those wars, against that killing disease. But the 
			nations will fight in the wrong way, lashing out at the effect 
			rather than the cause. It will never win these wars until the 
			nation, until society, changes its values and stops chasing the gods 
			of sex and drugs. It is then, in the years of the first sign, that 
			man can change the course of the probable future. It is then that 
			there can still be hope. But once the second sign of destruction 
			appears, the Earth can no longer be healed on a physical level. Only 
			a spiritual healing can then change the course of the probable 
			futures of mankind."
 
 "The landscape appeared drier, there was no vegetation to be seen, 
			and animals lay dying. A great stench of death arose from the 
			land... The sun seemed to be larger and more intense; no birds or 
			clouds could be seen; the air seemed thicker still. It was then that 
			the sky seemed to surge and huge holes began to appear. The holes 
			tore with a thunderous sound, and the very Earth, rocks and soil 
			shook.
 
 "The skin of the sky seemed to be torn open like a series of gaping 
			wounds, and through these wounds seeped a liquid that seemed like 
			the oozing of an infection..."
 
			The spirit warrior said to 
			Stalking Wolf:  
				
				"Holes in the sky... will become the
				second sign of the destruction 
			of man. The holes in the sky and all that you have seen could become 
			man’s reality. It is here that man must heed the warning and work 
			harder to change the future at hand. But man must not only work 
			physically, he must also work spiritually, through prayer, for only 
			through prayer can man now hope to heal the Earth and himself... 
 "These holes are a direct result of man's life, his travel, and of 
			the sins of his grandfathers and grandmothers. These holes, the 
			second sign, will mark the killing of his grandchildren and will 
			become a legacy to man’s life away from nature. It is the time of 
			these holes that will mark a great transition in mankind's thinking. 
			They will then be faced with a choice, a choice to continue 
			following the path of destruction or a choice to move back to the 
			philosophy of the Earth and a simpler existence. It is here that the 
			decision must be made, or all will be lost..."
 
			The first sign was the famine in 
			Biafra and the outbreak of AIDS. 
			The second sign obviously refers to the huge holes now appearing in 
			the Earth’s ozone layer. Stalking Wolf had a third vision:  
				
				"The sky suddenly turned back to a liquid and then turned blood red. 
			As far as his eyes could see, the sky was solid red, with no 
			variation in shadow, texture or light... As sunset drifted to night, 
			the stars shone red, the color never leaving the sky, and everywhere 
			was heard the cries of fear and pain. 
 "This, then, is the 
				third sign, The Night of the Bleeding Stars. It 
			will become known throughout the world, for the sky in all lands 
			will be red with the blood of the sky, day and night. It is then, 
			with the sign of the third probable future, that there is no longer 
			hope. Life on Earth as man has lived it will come to an end, and 
			there can be no turning back, physically or spiritually. It is then, 
				if things are not changed during the second sign, that man will 
			surely know the destruction of the Earth is at hand. It is then that 
			the children of the Earth must run to the wild places and hide. For 
			when the sky bleeds fire, there will be no safety in the world of 
			man...
 
 "From this time, when the stars bleed, to the fourth and final sign 
			will be four seasons of peace. It is in these four seasons that the 
			children of the Earth must live deep in the wild places and find a 
			new home, close to the Earth and the Creator. It is only the 
			children of the Earth who will survive, and they must live the 
			philosophy of the Earth, never returning to the thinking of man. And 
			survival will not be enough, for the children of the Earth must also 
			live close to the spirit. So tell them not to hesitate if and when 
			this third sign becomes manifest in the stars, for there are but 
			four seasons to escape.
 
 "The fourth and final sign will appear through the next ten winters 
			following the night that the stars will bleed. During this time the 
				Earth will heal itself and man will die. For those ten years the 
			children of the Earth must remain hidden in the wild places, make no 
			permanent camps, and wander to avoid contact with the last remaining 
			forces of man. They must remain hidden, like the ancient scouts and 
			fight the urge to go back to the destruction of man. Curiosity could 
			kill many...
 
 "There will be a great famine throughout the world, like man cannot 
			imagine. Waters will run vile, the poisons of man’s sins running 
			strong in the waters of the soils, lakes and rivers. Crops will 
			fail, the animals of man will die, and diseases will kill the 
			masses. The grandchildren will feed upon the remains of the dead, 
			and all about will be the cries of pain and anguish. Roving bands of 
			men will hunt and kill other men for food, and water will always be 
			scarce, getting scarcer with each passing year. The land, the water, 
			the sky will all be poisoned, and man will live in the wrath of the 
			Creator. Men will hide at first in the cities, but there he will 
			die. A few will run to the wilderness, but the wilderness will 
			destroy them, for they had long ago been given a choice. Man will be 
			destroyed, his cities in ruin, and it is then that the grandchildren 
			will pay for the sins of their grandfathers and grandmothers...
 
 "There is only hope during the time of the first and second signs. 
			Upon the third sign, the night of the bleeding stars, there is no 
			longer hope, for only the children of the Earth will survive. Man 
			will be given these warnings; if unheeded, there can be no hope, for 
			only the children of the Earth will purge themselves of the cancers 
			of mankind, of mankind’s destructive thinking. It will be the 
			children of the Earth who will bring a new hope to the new society, 
			living closer to the Earth and spirit." (16)
