The Spirits of the Four Directions horse from The Trail of Painted Ponies is rich with symbolism and offers another way of looking at the world, and giving meaning to our lives.
The Medicine Wheel symbolizes the sacred circle of life in the spiritual teachings of Native American Indians. The Medicine Wheel has four basic directions, each associated with a different color, and reresented by an animal spirit guide, each offering its own lessons.
- North is white and is represented by the buffalo, whose gift is wisdom.
- East is yellow and is represented by the eagle, whose gift is illumination.
- South is red and is represented by the wolf, whose gift is adaptability.
- West is black and is represented by the bear, whos gift is strength.
On the back of the horse is the symbol for the turtle - the turtle has many meanings in Native American culture. The turtle, a water animal, is a symbol for strength, fertility, and endurance.
