Circles for many Indigenous Nations, the circle represents all of life on earth. No species is dominion over anything other than ourselves. We are ALL equal in the circle. Since the Indigenous Nations depend on the other elements of the Creation, we have the responsibility to take care of eachother. As if we take something from the Mother, the food, a plant for medicine and clothing, or a tree for shelter, clay from the ground for tools. We intend to maintain the balance of all life in the circle to ALL our relations.
