About Hyemeyohsts Storm
Hyemeyohsts Storm was born and raised on the Northern Cheyenne and Crow Reservations of Montana. He is an enrolled Indian, and he is a Breed, which means a mixed blood person.
His first book, SEVEN ARROWS, introduced the Medicine Wheels to the world, for the first time. It also revealed, to our modern world what the Indian wars were like from the Indian and Breed perspective. After SEVEN ARROWS was published, Hyemeyohsts travelled extensively, lectured, and was a guest teacher at a few Universities in the United States and Germany.
Beginning in his youth, he had the greatest fortune to become the apprentice of the brilliant and powerful Zero Chief, and Holy Woman, Estcheemah. She was a Mayan Breed Indian who was born during the bloody and sorrowful Indian Wars of the late 1800's. She was one of the wisest and most powerful Medicine Chiefs of her time, and a Carrier and teacher of the Medicine Wheels. She taught of the histories and sophisticated knowledge of the Zero Chiefs. |
It took Hyemeyohsts years to prepare himself and discover how to share with the world, in his writing and teaching the Knowledge of the Medicine Wheels and the story of his most precious teacher, Estcheemah. He needed time to mature, to contemplate the true face of Greatness that Estcheemah revealed to him. For many years he has travelled extensively sharing the Medicine Wheel knowledge with our world's people.
Hyemeyohsts is an artist and teacher, as well as a writer. He strives to teach how we all can treasure our Living Earth and look to Her for the symbols and meaning in our lives. Consequently, all of his art is, in some way, an honouring of our Living Planet and also a celebration of the many diverse cultures and peoples, throughout human history, who have loved and cherished our Mother Earth. In this way we can find our common ground, our Earth heritage, which bridges across race, gender, culture, religion, and all other human invented boundaries. The responsibility and care of our Earth is in our hands, as Earth Citizens.
His books: SEVEN ARROWS, THE SONG OF HEYOEHKAH and LIGHTNINGBOLT are very direct in what they have to tell about Life and Learning. In Seven Arrows he shares these words from his teachers: "The Universe is a Mirror of the people, and each person is a mirror of every other person." He invites the reader to look into the ancient Mirror of our Medicine Wheels, revealed in his books, and discover the timeless reflection of your own Self and Life.
