The Four Directions



Vision questing...offerings to the four directions











...and Yuran appeared in the North,
the place of the Elders, of wisdom and gratitude.

A silent observer of the wadjella yorga

  2. He was very,very sneaky...appeared out of nowhere.

    ...no honey required :)
    Didn't seem to mind the wadjella yorga in his face with the camera...just sat silently
    ...sensing there was no threat

    Vivid memory from early childhood of dad collecting these fellas - a crawling mass of them on the floor of the ute. All designed to protect the household from snakes...Yuran - a protector figure since that time.
