Greeting the Morning Star
Original Art
Gerald Dawavendewa (Hopi & Cherokee)
Flowers blossom among dragonflies and rain, greeting the Morning Star -Venus. For the Hopi, Sìitàlpuva, a land brightened with flowers is where the rain refreshes the soil, seeds sprout, and all forms of life abound. Although the Hopi people live in a desert environment, the belief in Sìitàlpuva, a place filled with life, is what the Hopi aspire to.
