Published on Apr 12, 2011The song "Dawning of the Seventh Fire" by Bill Neal Elk Whistle with video creation by Tim Wozny is in recognition of the beginning of the epoch known as the Seventh Fire as it is known in the Seven Fires Prophecy of the Algonquian (or Anishinaabeq). According to the teachings of the Seven Fires Prophecy, when the world has been befouled and the waters turned bitter by disrespect, the two-leggeds will have only two options left to them from which to choose - materialism or spirituality. By choosing spirituality, they will survive - but, if they choose materialism, that will be the end of it. According to the Elders of the Algonquian, the two-leggeds are now at this very point in the history of the earth - the Seventh Fire has been lighted. The Lakota prophecy of the beginning of the Fifth World tells us that the White Buffalo Calf will return to the herds in physical form, heralding the Age of Illumination, the age when the two-leggeds walk upright and once again remember their true relationship with Creator. It is told that we will awaken, as if from a dream, and the earth will be reborn. The Hopi Prophecies say that the Emergence from the Fourth World, where we have been for an epoch, to the Fifth World has begun - and that it is being made by the humble people of little nations, by tribes, and racial minorities. The Mayan Prophecy calls 2012 the end of time as we know it, and the ancient Cherokee calendar ends at 2012 exactly as does the Mayan calendar. As the Hopi Elders have foretold, the Time is Now - we are at the twelfth hour.
