First, let me say this.... The music I have chosen for my page is not JUST good music, it was chosen with purpose and meaning in of and for my own personal life, self, and being. Each song has meaning for me, in one way or another it is a healing for my spirit. Have a listen to the words, and then you will understand, If you cannot understand the words...then close your eyes and feel the rhythm, and the meaning behind it all

My general interest are
Native American History, especially my own.

Gray Wolves

and The Moon

And Pasta, I love Pasta. lol.

As a Native American, I respect the The Wild Gray Wolf as a noble fellow hunter, an apex predator,
But mostly, He is my Protector, My Defender, My Keeper, My Guide.
I feel closely related to the Gray Wolf.
Wolves develop close relationships and strong social bonds. They often demonstrate deep affection for their family and may even sacrifice themselves to protect the family unit.
He is the largest of all wild canids.
Wolves are built for stamina, possessing features ideal for long-distance travel.
Their narrow chests and powerful backs and legs facilitate efficient locomotion.
They are capable of covering several miles trotting at about a pace of 6 mph, and have been known to reach speeds approaching 40 mph during a chase.
Wolves prefer psychological warfare to physical confrontations.
Wolves have a complex communication system ranging from barks and whines to growls and howls.
While they don’t howl at the moon, they do howl more when it’s lighter at night, which occurs more often when the moon is full.
Howling helps pack members keep in touch. Wolves will also howl for communal reasons.
Wolves rarely eat each day, but compensate by eating up to 10 kg (22 lb) at a time.
When pursuing large prey, wolves generally attack from all angles, targeting the necks and sides of their prey.
The main differences between wolves and domestic dogs are that wolves have, on average, 20% larger brains, better immune systems, a better sense of smell, and are generally larger than domestic dogs.
Wolves have excellent hearing and super smell.
Wolves typically dominate other canid species.

Also...My connection with the moon,
I have always felt a strong connection to the moon, especially a beautiful full moon, when my energy is high, and the night is lit so perfectly.
Being a cancer sign may have a bit to do with my attraction to the moon, as cancer's are ruled by the moon. Since the Moon is the closest 'Planet' to Earth, this satellite literally zips around the Zodiac, completing its circuit in less than a month. It also touches us more deeply than most Planets.
As the ruler of the tides, it is fitting that the Moon should be the ruler of our emotions. Still waters run deep? Making waves? A wellspring of emotion? Yes, our emotions have long been portrayed in terms of the sea: fluid, momentous, churning from within. Mood swings, instinct, how we feel about things and how our feelings affect others are all influenced by the Moon. Whereas the Sun gives us our spirit, it's the Moon which gives us our soul.
The Moon is goddess-like in that it symbolizes mother and the relationship between woman and child. This Planet (also known as a luminary) speaks to the women in one's life and their role as nurturer. Fertility, pregnancy and childbirth are also governed by the Moon. We see the Moon casting its silvery glow from our earliest moments, when we were stroked and caressed by our mother and felt her tender touch.
Our emotions manifest themselves through our being and set the tone for our daily lives. The Moon is party to this continuum, rendering us vital one moment and fragile the next. We're up and down, naughty or nice, and may laugh wildly or cry at will. Through the Moon's energy, we endeavor to reconcile these varied emotions in order to make ourselves complete and one with the world. The Moon also helps us see that which we want, and to use memory and the past as part of this process.
