Join The Dtube Revolution// Eagle Spirit & Natural Medicine Introduction// Medicine Card “Fire” For The Week Of November 19, 2018
Hello DTube Family,
It has been a few days and here I bring you some information on Native American Natural Medicine and my personal feelings about what this means to me. Within my ancestry the Native American Natural Medicine was stolen and we were forbidden to practice our natural medicine along with our spirituality. This is a known fact and for the younger generations — including your Eagle Spirit this has not been easy to overcome. Within the last six plus years my training has been ongoing and many have taken me under their wing. Steemit has become my sounding board and a huge support, which brings me to give a huge thank you to @sagescrub for sending me a huge gift that I share in this video.
The fact that it is constant work to remove blocks that were placed on my path and overcoming inherent fears is a daily fight. Within the @NaturalMedicine community and other groups I am slowly overcoming feelings that are associated with genetic memory such as being killled for holding my sacred drum In public, holding sacred seeds, or using herbs to praise Creator. With this post I also bring you #MedicineCardMonday and include that within my natural medicine video and further explanation below.
Medicine Card Intentions
All of my readings are geared towards a healing; breaking through mental, spiritual, or emotional blocks that will assist us in overcoming every day obstacles.
If this is your first time swinging by, my Medicine Card Monday initiative is my positive intention to pull a card of healing or medicine for the community. This is different than tarot in that the cards I use are on the medicinal aspect of humanity other than the most common cards found in a tarot deck.
The decks I use are The Wild Unknown - Animal Spirit, Mystical Shaman Oracle, and the Chakra Wisdom Oracle. The cards will assist in helping those interested, find comfort in things going on in our community and the world we are now dealing with. Namely, issues around the world, astronomical, or overcoming health issues of all sorts, etc., maybe just something out of balance that we are feeling on any particular day that needs guidance.
By pulling a card for Steemit this will in turn assist with my Medicine training, give back to the community, and help those seeking answers. I will take some of the reading from guidebooks provided with the cards, but primarily give intuitive and medicinal words to help our community. We all have days when we need encouragement, inspiration, and comfort.
The Card - Fire
Meaning
Fire played an important in the tradition within the Native American culture and was present in all ceremonies and rituals. Fire acts as a Messenger and is a gift from the Great Spirit. Smoke for the fire is used to cleanses sacred items, such as drums, shakers, pipes, before ceremonial use. Fire symbolized the heart of the People and its smoke, which could also be created in a pipe, carried prayers to the Great Spirit. The Fire Symbol represents cleansing and renewal because out of the ashes of a fire comes new growth and new thoughts and ideas.
The Message
The Essence
Fire consumes anything that it touches. The flames remind us of the impermanent nature of reality, and how situations can quickly transform into beauty or chaos. Fire is passion, and its dancing flames invite us to reach to the sky. Warmth and light are heavenly, yet too much heat can scorch us. To fully step into the energy of fire is to be utterly transformed, like the Phoenix rising form the ashes.
The Invitation
Warm your hands and your heart by your inner fire. Let it burn away your hardships; let it consume your pain and your sorrow. has life become too rigid, too cold, or too superficial? Light a candle or make a bonfire, and toss into the flames everything that has become stiff and painful. Give it all to the fire rapid transformation. Set your life on fire!
The Medicine
Are you feeling too fiery? Have you been reactive and short-tempered toward others? This card has come to tell you that all fiery emotions directed at others can "backfire" at you. It is not a good idea to play with fire when you are out of balance or angry. Now is not the time to act or react. It is time to tame and befriend your inner fire so it does not scorch you.
A part of this message is translated in the video, however, after sitting in meditation regarding fire there are a few aspects we can learn from being aware of fire in our proximity. There are literal fires burning and touching the lives of our fellow Steemians and Steemit has taken a downturn and people are temperamental, nervous energies, moody, etc. For those that can, let us be a support to those that can be a listening ear, a shoulder to cry on, or just be there.
Regardless of our situation and what we feel about Steemit, for those that push through this message of fire, we are that much stronger. When we stick together we not only help others but we also help ourselves. After stepping out of the fire we rise up out of the fire purified, renewed, and refreshed.

Fantastic video! Very interesting about the sacred seeds and herbs, and I love the drumming! I've been away so much recently and hadn't realised you'd stepped into video - I knew you were planning to. You look great on camera and come across in a very relaxed way.
Thank you so much Natu!! You’re hiking trips and job would be amazing video coverage on dtube!! I’d love to see it. If you aren’t equipped I did a short vid and blog on inexpensive tools to get started. It’s awesome really and fun.
I can't post to Dtube - the technology I have doesn't work. It's a shame, because it was hearing about Dtube that brought me to Steemit in the first place. I even bought a new tablet computer in the hope that it would help me post, but I still couldn't get my videos to upload. I asked for help on Dtube's forums, but eventually I noticed that there were loads of other people asking for help with the same problems, so I gave up and started posting to Dlive instead.
I posted some great videos about my hikes and other things on Dlive, but then it all migrated. Instead, I've started posting to Bit.tube, and once I get round to it I will upload those videos I did for Dlive onto Bit.Tube.
Also, the camera I used for filming my hikes broke a few weeks ago, and I won't be able to film any more until I get a new camera. I can still do other types of videos using my phone camera.
Thanks for sharing this, of your medicines, you speak so clearly and down to earth about them. I feel for you having your ancestors have their medicines taken away, so glad that you could get past that block and find the strength to bring forth your medicines. We are all richer for that. Thank-you!
Thank you porters it’s so nice to see you here and I appreciate you watching.
Loved the video... finally get to see your face and hear you speak!!
Moving into summer, the Fire elementals are starting to get a bit more boisterous down under... but can also start to feel the sacred fire within me start to burn bit brighter too. Its been a long hibernation for me this year, and I can start to feel like myself again.
That drum has some seriously awesome Medicine going on with it.
Thanks 😉🙏🏽🦅

I love that you brought SO MUCH of your sacred medicine and essence into this video. It was so lovely spending 11 minutes with you and getting a peek into your process and journey, your wisdom and passions... I really loved it, thank you!

You are welcome, I wish I could do more but I am still learning myself.🙏
I hear you, it’s a really creative and fun way of sharing info. Instead of coming up with stories or blogging all day.
Thankyou for your Natural Medicine Dtube! SBI coming your way. We love having you as part of our collective, our own eagle spirit warrior woman. 💚💚💚
Thank you so much NM! You are awesome and kind, I truly appreciate your kind and loving support.
You've been so generous to share your medicine with us. I especially like the end where you share hope, appreciation and positivity - spreading the message of positivity for all to benefit. I also really appreciate your message about being present with the intention you are putting out, from the beginning of the smudging and all the way through your entire message. I am really excited for you about the training you are going through to learn different forms of medicine - I feel blessed that you share some with us. How beautiful that you honor your people in this way and also share your intention for the greater powers, for human kind and earth.
I do not know a lot of the details about how your people's practices were incriminated and suppressed - but I do know that it was horrible and the outcome is that so much has been lost. Thank you for shedding some light for us to learn. I hope to learn more from you in the future. I know that we are all here to heal together and to help the healing process, with one another. Your work is so important and so appreciated.
It makes me very happy that you received the tobacco leaves and seeds :)
