The Legend of the Rainbow Warriors

Navajo, Hopi, Ojibwe, Cree, Anishinabe, Lakota

‘Walk on a rainbow trail; walk on a trail of song, and all about you will be beauty.
There is a way out of every dark mist, over a rainbow trail.’
~ Navajo Song

In many Native American traditions, the rainbow symbolically occupies a special place, a symbol of unity and of the Spirit.

‘As Native Americans, we believe the Rainbow is a sign from the Spirit in all things. It is a sign of the union of all people, like one big family. The unity of all humanity, many tribes and peoples, is essential.’
~ Thomas Banyacya, late spokesman for the Hopi traditional elders from Hotevilla

‘Native prophecies say that mixed-blood and white people who grew their hair long and wore beads would come to the Native healers and ask for guidance… The prophecies say that they would return as the Rainbow people in bodies of different colours: red, white, yellow and black. The old ones said that they would return and unite to help restore balance to the Earth.
‘The story of these Rainbow Warriors is told by many peoples in many different ways.
We feel that we are in that time now when the Rainbow Warriors are coming about. (…)
So it is a time where we have to acknowledge that we are all human beings
upon the same planet and that’s what the Rainbow Warriors is all about.’
~ Sun Bear, Ojibwe teacher and author

There are many prophecies mentioned in the articles, which can be read here…the main theme of the prophecies is that we, as a united people, will once again be able to run free, free of toxins, enjoy nature and earth – the rainbow warriors will teach the way.

But first, there will be huge and terrifying mountains to conquer: prejudice, hatred, and ignorance.
