TAOS PUEBLO STANDS WITH STANDING ROCK

WATER IS LIFE PRAYER CEREMONY AT TAOS PUEBLO

Today, the Taos Pueblo held a Water Is Life Prayer Dance at the Taos Pueblo, in support of the Standing Rock Protectors.

The ceremony was beautiful and powerful, conducted under a heavy storm sky and rain, until the closing prayer, when the sky above us opened and offered us a double rainbow behind the pueblo, across the sacred Taos Mountain.

From the distance, we are standing with Standing Rock, with gratitude and mighty love for the protectors who are committed to preserve the water and sacred land.

Water is life.

All peace to each one of you. Dora
