PERFUME, MUSIC AND BOOKS FOR AN ENLIGHTENED AND HEALTHY HUMANITY
My blog, blueeagle1.net was started in May 2008 on the marketing advice of the Invocation’s Perfumes management. In time it became a true passion. This passion began hesitantly when I began to receive comments to my articles from my readers and then in earnest when I began to feel them.
Question of a reader: Blue Eagle, I have a question concerning gardening. Nowadays, a lot of people want to have a garden, to cultivate fruits and vegetables in an ecological way. But they are often confronted with many problems, insects who eat their salads and having to pulverize pesticides. Thus, their gardens are no longer ecological. I don’t see people living in nature having to deal with these difficulties. What advice you can give to address these problems?
A recurring preoccupation in comments from my readers and people who come for healing is addiction. A vast majority of people today suffer from a form or other of addiction and dependencies. Most are not conscious of it. Anything can become an addiction: the most common—alcoholism. The most pernicious: emotional and sexual dependencies.
In this month before the annual gathering of the Rainbow family, I’ve received a heartfelt communication by a rainbow brother that brought back many moving memories. The international Rainbow movement-family-tribe-nation are Men and Women of all races who reject the current system.
The modern Pow Wow is a time for celebration of Indigenous community and identity. It’s also
an event that honours our heritage and proudly reaffirms First Nation’s culture
and traditions. The Pow Wow has two aspects: the traditional Pow Wow and the competitive Pow Wow.
The traditional Pow Wow is an event that focuses on Indigenous traditions and spirituality.
The competition Pow Wow is the expression of the cultural character of the event. It’s also the
opportunity for participant dancers and musicians to receive prizes.
Whether it’s the traditional Pow Wow or competitions, you’ll always find artists, artisans and
people who are passionate and proud of their culture, tradition and history.
These people want to share with you what they hold precious during this
celebration time that’s open to all.

The word-key for ant medicine is patience. The ant can go considerable distances to bring a little food to its community. It can accomplish a stunning amount of work. It never stops accomplishing its tasks and it has incredible strength: she can carry several times its own weight.
Last Saturday in the “Devoir”[1], there was an article on current research by university students. One of them had discovered that the roots of a tree were tightly interlaced with those of other trees and even welded together and are thus, inextricably interdependent. They found that the trees whose roots were welded with other trees have a stronger growth than those who didn’t. Interesting! That shows that the trees do not have as individual a life as one could think by seeing them. Francoise
In First Nations the horse is a symbol of power and freedom.
The young warriors and braves of the central plains had the traditions of trying to steal horses from neighbouring tribes in order to prove that they would be good husbands for the woman they wanted to wed. By doing this near ritual act they demonstrated their courage and power.
A reader is asking why mosquitoes, horse flies, ticks and other biting insects exist. It’s a fact that for those who are far from nature, or who visit nature only occasionally these insects can be a real nuisance. In certain circumstances they can even be dangerous.
