Agricultural Significance- this is the heat of the summer, the corn is ripe
Personal-maturity and endurance, the balancing of the genders, female and male, allowing for the fruition of the food,
ensuring survival
MAJOR CELEBRATION: Corn Dances, 1st Harvest of Summer
These dances are more social than strictly spiritual. The hosting clans each prepare food, gifts, dances and welcome
for the neighboring tribe. The tribes gather for a big celebration of the first summer harvest of corn, honoring the
lessons of endurance, maturity, community and FUN!!!
We’ll serve the Rose Parrot Clan a garden salad of tomatoes, new
potatoes and mint, which we planted at spring equinox. It'll be something delicious!
