Fat Moons and Hunger Moons:
The Turn of the Seasons for Northwoods Natives

Grandmother Moon, known to the Northwoods Natives as Nokomis Giizis, is the focal point of their way of life, the Gifting Way. By consciously living in relationship with Nokomis, Natives grow in awareness of their kinship with all other creatures. It is thus that they live in Balance -- in sync with seasonal rhythms by being semi-nomadic and continually adapting their gathering and hunting strategies. The booklet goes into detail on how the gifts of each Moon fulfill the needs of Natives in all ways: sustenance, shelter, cultural, and spiritual.

*Excerpt...* The warming air and strengthening Sun cause the People to shed their furs, which are packed away in airtight sacks with bug-repelling herbs…The warmth tickles the buds of the Maples, making them thirsty. Like nurslings, they suck hard to draw the sweet nourishing sap up from the roots. The buds swell quickly, signaling the arrival of new life--the beginning of a new turn of the seasons. The People, with their food stores and body fat depleted after the White Season, are also thirsty. They need an easy-to-get and easy-to-digest source of energy for the coming time of intense activity. Fortunately, the elder Maples have extra sap to gift, which provides much needed calories, along with nourishing minerals and enzymes. This is clearly Iskigamizige Giizis, the Maple-Sugar Moon.	$4 - ebook version By purchasing the ebook you will not pay any postage charges and you will be able to download it to your computer instantaneously after your payment.
