Dan learns some Canadian Culture

A couple of days ago Brenna and I visited the local Indian "First Nation" art museum. Here there was haeps of awesome pieces of art work and stunning photos. The local culutre as with many indigonous people embrace the land, and spirits. You see heaps of totum poles around which all have significant meaning! In the picture below although its side ways you can see a killer whale and its rider. The whale symbolises a traveller & gaudian and its a symbol of good!

Other symbols of interest are
Bear: Strenght, learned humility, teaching...
Beaver: Creative, Artistic, and Determined
Bumble Bee: Honesty, Pure Thinking, Willingness and Drive
Dragon Fly: Ever Changing Life
Eagle: Great Strength, Leadership and prestige
Frog:Spring into new Life, Communicator and Stability
Hawk: Strength and Far sighted
Hummingbird: Love, beauty, Intelligence, Spirit Messenger
Moon: Protectorand Gaudian of earth by night
Sun: Healling Energy, Gaurdian of earth by Day

This is just a few examples but nearly every animal has a meaning and legends behind it..
Who know which one may end up on my Skin!!
