People’s homes are reflections of their cultures. The size, shape, location and materials used in the construction of dwellings all are dictated by people’s needs and values. The most commonly depicted traditional Indian dwelling is the teepee, or tipi. The teepee was used by the nomadic plains Indians who hunted buffalo. They would stretch buffalo hides across a cone of wooden poles. These structures were strong and easy to take down and set up as the tribes moved across the plains. Another traditional Indian dwelling was the wickiup. Used by tribes in the South, the wickiup was similar to the teepee. The dwelling was formed by securing brush, rather than animal hides, over arched poles. The pueblo was used by Southwestern tribes such as the Navajo. Pueblos were made of sandstone and clay. Often located in canyons, these dwellings provided vital protection from the scorching desert sun and insulation from the cold nights. The wigwam was used by Eastern and Northern woodlands tribes, including the Ojibwe People. The wigwam was a domed or cone-shaped structure covered with bark or mats. The dwellings were strong, spacious and easy to move during seasonal migrations. Although American Indians no longer live in teepees, wickiups, pueblos or wigwams, these traditional dwellings continue to be symbols of cultural pride. As the saying goes, "Home is where the heart is."

This is a crazy world. What can be done? Amazingly, we have been mislead. We have been taught that we can control government by voting. The founder of the Rothschild dynasty, Mayer Amschel Bauer, told the secret of controlling the government of a nation over 200 years ago. He said, "Permit me to issue and control the money of a nation and I care not who makes its laws." Get the picture? Your freedom hinges first on the nation's banks and money system. That's why we advocate using the Liberty Dollar, to understand the monetary and banking system. Freedom is connected with Debt Elimination for each individual. Not only does this end personal debt, it places the people first in line as creditors to the National Debt ahead of the banks. They don't wish for you to know this. It has to do with recognizing WHO you really are in A New Beginning: A Practical Course in Miracles. You CAN take back your power and stop volunteering to pay taxes to the collection agency for the BEAST. You can take back that which is yours, always has been yours and use it to pay off your debts. And you can send others to these pages to discover what you are discovering. Disclaimer: The statements on www.real-dream-catchers.com have not been evaluated by the FDA.
