FREE HEART BECOMES THE WIND

This drawing was done from a photograph by Edward Curtis. The chief's name was New Chest and he was a Piegan Indian. This tribe was part of the Blackfoot Confederacy and lived in the northern plains area. New Chest was part of a warrior society in which membership was
based on age. Their function was to preserve order in the camp and
on hunts. They kept informed of the whereabouts of the buffalo herds
and helped organize feasts and dances.
When this photograph was taken, New Chest was living on a reservation in Montana. Most of his people had died of disease and were living on land that was rapidly decreasing in size as the white man found new ways to take more of it away from them.
Horse represents power, and true power is wisdom that can be found in remembering our total journey. Compassion and love for all of humanity will come to one who balances all pathways on the Medicine Shield. The wind is the breath of Great Spirit, connecting us to all.
With the help of the wind, New Chest may have found some balance within the power of his wisdom, to see beyond the immediate picture and into a time when all people would be able to exist in
harmony with each other.
