"Cynthia Whitehawk's large bags are wearable art - you can easily carry this as a purse. It is large enough for a healer or shaman to use for supplies. Her bags show impeccable workmanship and attention to detail. The stitching on this Horse Spirit medicine bag is truly amazing!"

Words from Apache artist Cynthia Whitehawk:

MEDICINE BAG: Medicine bags are ancient personal empowerment tools. Spiritually representing the wearer, they contain that which is most Spiritually significant & healing to the individual to help guide and protect one on their journey. This might include collected Spirit objects or totems, a small feather, beads, horse hair, healing gemstones & crystals, seeds, photos & more. Those items that are important to the wearer protect, grounds them to our Mother Earth and the Creator, and brings them strength & healing.

MY MISSION: We are thankful and honored to be able to respect the Spirits of the plants, animals and Mother Earths elements who give themselves and continue their life as healing tools for us. We offer these tools for Spiritual expression, to be in balance with Mother Earth and one's self.

HORSE: The Horse Spirit inspires our dreams, awakens passion, carries us far and fast, and brings us close to our instinctual and authentic nature. Horse enables us to move beyond our limitations and run freely. Spirit or Medicine Horses were and are extremely helpful in guidance, healing, protection and ceremony. Horse represents wisdom, physical power and unearthly power. Horse enables healers to travel in Spirit energy, using Horse to help guide them to the answer. Horses are symbols that can express our magical side. Horses are also known as symbols of Freedom & independence.

TURTLE MEDICINE - The Turtle is the nurturer, protector, Mother Energy, Mother Earth. The Turtle's medicine includes connection with the Great Spirit, journeys of discovery, patience, feminine strength, power to heal female diseases, inspiration, protecting oneself & others, self-reliance, & tenacity.
