⭐️What are The Seven Grandfather Teachings?

It is believed that this wisdom came from the Anishinaabe (Ojibwe) people, but has been adapted and used by many Indigenous cultures. Each teaching is a special lesson that helps us be better to ourselves, others, and the world around us. (Note: The animals and teachings can vary based on location or Indigenous group.)

love (eagle), respect (buffalo), courage (bear), honesty (sabe/sasquatch), wisdom (beaver), humility (wolf), and truth (turtle).
