“You’re sitting in a universe made of circles. Each has its four directions, and you have your four directions. Find it. You already know it, or maybe you just don’t know how to touch base with that. But it’s like anything about loving the Earth, that means you got to get out there, and touch her, work with her, cultivate life force. Your four directions are to be found in yourself first, and then in concentric circles out. “ Katsi Cook.
