CREATOR’S SONG: (A message from Enuta Pawnee Poporn)

“…This is a highly spiritual little corn, yet grounded well in Mother Earth. ‘Enuta’ name was called out, meaning ‘Blessed’. There were originally 4 colors to this popcorn that would come and go with weather changes. The red and yellow (and rarely white) are all that remain [so far]. You can call back the blue and green after Earth Changes settle down later. In that state of Being (with four colors) it was used in healing ceremonies, to heal bronchial diseases in humans. Tassel tips were thought to ‘breathe the air and purify it with Light.’ With ceremony, clouds could be brought with this corn, to bring the Rain Beings. This is indeed the ears of corn the Shaman/Medicine person wore in their ears as ‘earrings’ to do sacred ceremony..”
