Women's Gathering - Star Sisters

Directions Website Contact the organization

Women's Gathering - Star Sisters Women’s Gathering was founded in 2007, based on a dream and vision. We do not have a committee, council, political or religious format. Love Is All There Is.

We make decisions as a collective whole; we are all leaders and we share our wisdom for generations to come. “The vision started in the ‘90s in New York City; many wisdom-keepers of different cultures shared with me the original, sacred intent of America. People of all different colors were to come to the West and meld their wisdom with the Indigenous Peoples of this continent to become whole human beings balanced in spirit, soul, mind and body. We moved home to my roots at Fort Belknap Indian Reservation and found that Montana is where Phoenixfire will take flight. We are sharing our wisdom and ‘Gather the Flames’ of the sacred fire to spiral out to the four directions to weave pure Love of the Universe in the “Web of Life” for World Peace. ‘Our Voices Sing Loud to the Heartbeat of Mother Earth,’ echoing out our ancestor’s wisdom flowing through our DNA, to remember who we are and rise as ONE. Buffalo Nations are rising from the ashes to be a catalyst for “Healing the Soul Wounds of Indigenous Peoples of the World. We open the new cycle as a human family, the ‘Tree of Life and the Hoop of Nations’ is restored and our gift is becoming the whole human beings we were meant to be. A’ho.” -Valdean Mountain El Assad Nookoosi, Nooci iiteenooni

PHOENIXFIRE’S MISSION
We serve as the Keepers of Mother Earth to restore our natural harmony with the Universe; to empower, educate and inspire the evolving fusion of ancient people’s wisdom with present day living creates a “Whirling Rainbow Bridge” to voice to the world “We Are All Related,” for World Peace for generations to come. Our Goals:
1. We honor the sacred feminine of Mother Earth, Women and Girls i.e. Societies, Women’s Gatherings, Talking Circles, Sacred Sites, World Peace Cultural Exchange Journeys.
2. Buffalo Nations rise from the ashes as a catalyst for “Healing the Soul Wounds of Indigenous Peoples of the World” aka International Memorial Site recognizing the Genocide of Indigenous Peoples (NCAI Resolution -13-012, 2013)
3. World Peace Changemaker Media Projects & Events
on paradigm shifts of consciousness

Women’s Gathering was founded in 2007 based on a dream and vision. In 2009, we sponsored a Buffalo Hunt and we journeyed to the Big Horn Medicine Wheel in Wyoming. We prayed for the unity and healing of All people. Our eldest member Elizabeth Warrior (Liz Main), requested before her passing in March 2011, that our Women’s Gathering complete a Hoop gathering connecting us with Phoenixfire’s Star Sisters Hoop including women of all colors and cultures coming together for World Peace. On the day of the gathering people came from across the state and eagles were perched on every other telephone pole from Billings to Fort Belknap, a 3 hour drive; and hawks were perched on every other telephone pole for the entire span of the reservation from south to north. We continue to grow with the flow of the universe. A’ho! www.phoenixfirerising.com or .org

Shiyazh Pete becomes the first Navajo player in NFL history. Pete 6’9” is the talk of Native Country, with an entire Nation rallying behind him. From a walk‑on to an undrafted free agent, he’s now fighting for a spot on the biggest stage. An incredible story. I’ve seen enough, add him to the roster.

⭐💙 A HISTORIC NIGHT FOR COWBOYS ROOKIE SHIYAZH PETE

Cowboys rookie offensive lineman Shiyazh Pete made history as the first member of the Navajo Nation to sign with an NFL team, and Saturday night in Arizona showed just how much that accomplishment means.

Thousands of Navajo Nation members, including President Buu Nygren, traveled to Glendale to support Pete during the Cowboys’ preseason matchup with the Cardinals.

When Pete finally entered the game in the fourth quarter, the crowd erupted. He played six snaps on a touchdown drive and received a standing ovation when he returned to the Dallas sideline.

Pete raised his helmet as fans chanted his name and later described the moment as something that would be “etched in the history books.”

Looking into the crowd filled with Navajo flags, Pete said he saw two things:

“Hope, courage. Hope and courage.”

Afterward, Pete broke down the Cowboys huddle with a message about what the night meant to him and his new teammates:

“Fate brought us here as strangers, but this game, this star, this team will make us brothers.”

A special moment for Pete, the Navajo Nation and the Cowboys. ⭐

The Fire We Carry Quietly

The elders taught
that strength is not always thunder.
Sometimes it is a quiet hand,
a patient heart,
and the courage to stay gentle
when the world has not been gentle with you.

We inherit more than names.
We inherit unfinished prayers,
old promises to the earth,
and the duty to leave something good
for those who will walk after us.

There are seasons
when the spirit grows tired
of carrying what cannot be changed.

Then we must remember:
not every burden belongs forever.

Some things are meant to be forgiven.
Some are meant to be released.
And some become wisdom
only after we stop asking them
to return what they took.

Walk in a good way.

Keep your heart near what is true.
Honor what gave you strength.
And never let hardship convince you
that tenderness is weakness.

The deepest fire
does not burn the world around it.

It simply keeps enough warmth
to guide the spirit home.

The Road the Spirit Knows

There is a road
the feet cannot find,
but the spirit remembers.

The elders say
we do not walk alone.
Those who loved the earth before us
still travel in the quiet places—
between one heartbeat and the next,
between the fire and the stars.

Some nights will ask you
to leave your old name behind.
Some winds will carry away
what you thought you needed.

Do not chase what leaves.

The river never begs
the fallen leaf to return,
and still it reaches the sea.

Keep your heart gentle.
Keep your promises close.
Walk where kindness leaves no wound,
and listen when silence speaks.

For the strongest spirit
is not the one that conquers the road,
but the one that learns
to belong to it.

And when you no longer know the way,
trust the part of you the ancestors never forgot.

"When the time comes, withdraw from the world. Don’t regret it. Did you accomplish enough? Did you become famous enough? Prosperous enough? Lauded enough?
None of that lasts.
All the while, the creek, the mountains, the Great Dipper, the lake, the woods, and the moon have always been there. We went forth, we got our educations, we made our careers.
Perhaps we even saved other people and changed the course of civilization. The end result, though, is the same: trouble swamps us everywhere.
Withdraw when the time is right: be fortunate enough to know when it’s time to be an old person." -- Deng Ming-Dao
--- --- --- --- ---
'THE PEACE OF WITHDRAWAL' - Deng Ming-Dao
"Peaceful thoughts, uninterrupted.
Sailing and following whatever comes.
The evening breeze blows my boat:
a flowered journey at the creek’s mouth.
At the edge of night, I turn to West Valley:
gaze at Brother Mountains and the Dipper.
Everything dissolves in the lake mists.
Moon slants lower behind the woods.
Trouble swamps us everywhere:
be an old man with a fishing pole.”
