The intention of Sacred Wisdom Circle is to support all beings by supporting Medicine People and spiritual leaders in passing on their elder-knowledge to a new generation. Two Eagles Sacred Wisdom Spiritual Sanctuary (Two Eagles) and Sacred Wisdom Circle Institute (SWCI) are now calling regular, week-long Sacred Wisdom Circle in order to celebrate, empower and teach those individuals seeking a sp
iritual path of transformational healing and empowerment. The intention of the Sacred Wisdom Circle Institute is to allow Medicine People and Spiritual Leaders to pass on their elder-knowledge to a new generation, as well as to create a collective tribal community. For those seeking to become a Medicine Person, Spiritual Leader or to strengthen your connection to spirit and begin or continue your transformational healing path, SWCI & Two Eagles is inviting you to join us. Indigenous ceremonies create an experiential environment supportive of remembering our Spiritual focus and wholeness, and provide a transformational experience which allows us to heal addictions and dysfunctional behaviors. Sacred Wisdom Circle will assist individuals to:
- Honor the Circle as Sacred Time and Space.
- Create a Safe Learning Environment for Self-Discovery.

Participants in Sacred Wisdom Circles, Vision Quest and the 13th Moon Teachings Program learn to honor the Earth with its intricate ecology, of which humans are an integral part. SWCI’s desire is for each individual to effectively leave the workshop with a personal intention and Healing plan. Who can participate in Sacred Wisdom Circles, Vision Quest, the 13th Moon and our Two Eagles Spiritual Sanctuary Ceremonies? Anyone can join Two Eagles Spiritual Sanctuary and all members of other churches like ONAC or other earth-based spiritual churches are welcome to participate in any of our ceremonies. Sacred Wisdom Circles Institute and Two Eagles Spiritual Sanctuary are specifically for those who want an immersive transformational healing experience as well as those who are following the calling to become medicine people. Sacred Wisdom Ceremonies are unlike other teachings/trainings because they anchor healing into all six senses, including:
- Physical cleansing
- Emotional clearing
- Spiritual fortitude
- Mental clarity
- Social bonding
- Intuitive knowing
Ceremonies and teachings that participants may experience/learn include:
Tipi Ceremony - including sacred medicine sacrament. Sweat Lodge - including drumming, traditional songs and water. Pipe Ceremony - including blessing ceremony and four directions. Breath-work/ Meditation, Movement and Body-work - including grounding, centering and sound & vibration. Vision Quest - including prayer ties. Sacred Talking Circle - including journaling, intentions, staff of power and other tools such as: animal cards, earth-based knowledge (including teachings of the directions), masks, storytelling, communal songs and dance, understanding projection/reflection, the medicine wheel and potlatch. Fire-walk and bonding fire
The Sacred Wisdom Circle setting with its structure and symbolism focused on sacred circles, councils, and communion, is conducive to simple edification and elicits participant cooperation. Self-examination and self-refection are encouraged via the ceremonies and experiences taught on-site and coupled with the elder knowledge will provide the skills necessary for true transformation. These skills are powerful gifts and support each individual, allowing you to look inward for the answers which are fundamental to a balanced and harmonious life. As Human Beings we yearn for a safe place, both within and outside of ourselves that is authentic, trusting, caring, and open to change/exchange. We at SWCI & Two Eagles want to continue to strengthen the way of our Holy and wise Medicine Elders. We want to create a hollow bone (symbolic representation of the eagle bone whistle) for the Higher Powers to work in and through us. We believe that we worship the same God whether we sit on a pew in a chapel or synagogue or on a mountain top. In the wilderness or in sacred circle we have nothing that distracts us from our connection with Wakan-Tanka (creator). As humans, we want to take measure of our lives, to magnify our minds and natural talents, and to pray into manifested being our mission/purpose in life. We are all searching for a way of life that empowers us through wisdom, compassion and grace:
By wisdom we mean deep insight into the interdependence of all phenomena, into the ways in which we are all connected, and with an understanding of how the strength, talents, and life mission of each of us individually is vital to the whole. By compassion we mean the deep feeling that comes when we recognize our soul’s reflection in another person, by owning the projection when we witness the other person’s pain or joy and it becomes my own. By grace we mean having an open heart and open mind and being receptive and thankful for the teachings from the universal Wakan Tanka. Human beings want and need many of the same basic things in order to survive and thrive:
We need to meet our physical and financial (resource) needs so that we feel physically and mentally safe, healthy, loved, energetic and complete. We need to feel as if we belong and that we have thriving, loving, and healthy relationships which allow us to enjoy life with all our relations (human and non-human). We need to know that we are “making a contribution” and living our purpose every day so that we feel we have worth and are part of something bigger than ourselves. Via millennia-old proven and effective ceremonies/teachings participants learn techniques for stress reduction, empathy for self and others, goal setting, and economic life skills. You will, with guidance, set your own intention and establish your own individual life vision/plan, including career development, by utilizing a full battery of interest/talent identification tools. SWCI & Two Eagles look at and takes on the whole person. The ceremonies used are transformational and experiential as opposed to strictly didactic. The Participant gains on all levels of existence. The gift I give myself in Ceremony is: I create a healthy connection with Creator and my Higher Powers; I Honor Life and each person’s Heritage, especially one’s parents; I forgive self and others. Sacred Wisdom Circle is designed to free people from labels that may trap them in a false identity, calling for shifts in consciousness and action. Sacred Wisdom Circle empowers individuals to be responsible and take accountability, thus laying the foundation for emergence of a newly revived planetary consciousness. Warriors want to live an abundant life, yet despite our best intentions and desires, many of us feel (or have felt) limited, stuck and struggling in many of these aspects of our lives. We have seen that many people today feel incomplete and unhappy in one or more of these aspects of their live. Whether feeling unhappy in their relationships, frustrated and unsatisfied at their jobs, or struggling financially, many todays are not living the life they want. If you are ready to escape from any of the constraints that have been holding you back, this Sacred Wisdom Circle has been designed to put you on the Red Road toward Wisdom, Compassion and Grace that is required to live a life filled with Joy, Success and Gratitude. The most important factor for living an infinite and complete life is to become an unconditional being - imagine no conditions set on your ability to live and create. You were born to create your ideal life. You deserve to create your full measure of creation. This is your divine Birthright! Roadblocks To Overcome:
However, this kind of growth doesn’t usually just happen naturally and requires skill, effort and focus. In order to become the unconditional being you are destined to be, you must learn the skills needed in order to break free of limiting dis -beliefs. Negative and dysfunctional beliefs and behaviors that have been holding you back may include some of these popular lies:
I'm not good enough
No one loves me
I can't afford it
I don't deserve it
I'm not worthy
I can't change
It's too much risk
I'm too fat
I can't do it
It's not my nature
I don't have the energy
It’s too hard
I'm too scared
These false beliefs contribute to the standard that you live by. They limit all of life’s outcomes. Left unchallenged, your limited belief system will produce shame, guilt, depression, fear, anger, frustration, chronic health issues, and a lack of everything you desire. The only hope for achieving your dreams is to “retrain” your mind, heart and spirit. We must learn to have our minds work for us rather than against us in order to live the life we want. Joining the Sacred Wisdom Circle is the beginning of your Red Road toward freedom. This circle is designed to support you in identifying the limiting beliefs that have been holding you back and will allow you to unwind and release the false beliefs that you have about yourself. You will learn new empowering beliefs which literally rewire your mind so you can create the life you want. This is done in empowering, skill-building ceremonies with the medicine that Wakan Tanka has given us to open our minds, heart and spirit to the divine. Sacred Wisdom Circle and walking the Red Road begins with ceremony but it is an ongoing experience. This week-long ceremonial experience is the first step in a LIFE TRANSFORMING experience that will provide you with the Foundations required to Unleash connection with tribe, discover your true power and to begin the process of healing with family and loved ones. Joining Sacred Wisdom Circle and participating in four separate week-long ceremonial events is also a requirement for becoming a medicine person or facilitator with Two Eagles Church, Native American Church and many other churches.
**It is important to know that in many traditions, like Native American tribal traditions, Medicine People undergo a lifetime of training, usually within families, and this training is in now way meant to diminish this fact, but is meant to support those who have been called by Creator, but do not currently have a tribe that supports them in their training.
