Lakota Legend of White Buffalo

Lakota legend of the white buffalo 
Clear intent for peace harmony and balance 
Between all colors of man 
And all living things in Earth mother

Trust the guidance given to you by Spirit world
Give thanks for your blessings
Keep communication with creator open
White buffalo is a reminder of this and more

Symbolizes the seven sacred ceremonies 
Sweat lodge for purification, healing ceremony,
Adoption, Marriage, and Sundance ceremony
Also Vision Quest

The seven sacred ways to pray
White buffalo legend told in council meetings
Shared in sweat lodge ceremonies, 
Understood well by tribal story tellers.

The return of the white buffalo
Means prayers are being heard
Prophecy’s promises are being fulfilled
Signals a time of abundance and plenty.
