🌎 The Great Medicine Wheel
🌎 The Great Medicine Wheel
The Cosmic Pattern of Zion Living
🪶 One of the first things that started standing out to me in the Nemenhah records was that the teachings rarely moved in straight lines.
They moved in cycles.
Directions.
Seasons.
Relationships.
Stewardships.
Journeys.
The more I studied the records, the more I began realizing the people were being taught to live in harmony with patterns that already existed in creation itself.
Not forced systems.
Living systems.
And eventually this led me to what I now call:
The Great Medicine Wheel.
Not as a religious object.
Not as a New Age symbol.
But as a visual way to understand the sacred balance repeatedly appearing throughout the records.
🔥 Before going further, let me say this clearly:
This is not copied from generic internet medicine wheels.
This is not an attempt to blend random spiritual traditions together.
This wheel came from trying to visualize repeated Nemenhah themes:
- sacred directions,
- stewardship,
- balance,
- consecration,
- covenant living,
- sacred cycles,
- family,
- creation,
- councils,
- and the Way of the Peacemaker.
The wheel simply became the best visual language for showing how all these things connect together.
🌅 In the Nemenhah worldview, life itself seems to move in sacred patterns.
Morning and evening.
Planting and harvest.
Birth and death.
Learning and teaching.
Receiving and giving.
Sacrifice and renewal.
The people were not trying to conquer creation.
They were trying to live in harmony with it.
That’s a completely different mindset from Babylon.
Babylon tries to dominate.
Zion tries to align.
That one idea alone changes almost everything.
🌅 THE EAST
Light • Revelation • Beginning
The East represents awakening.
Light.
The beginning of the journey.
This is where truth first breaks across the horizon.
The Nemenhah records repeatedly emphasize:
- revelation,
- learning,
- listening,
- opening the eyes,
- and hearing the voice of the Peacemaker.
Every journey begins here.
Not with force.
Not with pride.
But with light.
☀️ THE SOUTH
Growth • Relationship • Life
The South feels alive.
Warmth.
Growth.
Service.
Family.
Community.
Children.
Labor.
This direction reminds us that Zion is not merely built through ideas.
It is built through relationships.
Through homes.
Through stewardship.
Through raising children.
Through learning how to love one another correctly.
The records constantly return to this truth:
people matter more than systems.
🌄 THE WEST
Sacrifice • Change • Transformation
The West is where things become difficult.
This is the direction of sacrifice.
Repentance.
Testing.
Purification.
Transformation.
In the records, growth almost always requires surrender.
Pride must die.
Greed must die.
Control must die.
Babylon must die inside the heart before Zion can live there.
This is why sacrifice is not punishment.
It is transformation.
❄️ THE NORTH
Wisdom • Stewardship • Enduring Peace
The North feels still.
Wise.
Balanced.
This is the direction of stewardship.
Sacred responsibility.
Consecration.
Peace.
The people in the records were constantly being taught to think beyond themselves:
- future generations,
- balance with the earth,
- sacred use of resources,
- village harmony,
- covenant responsibility.
This is where wisdom matures.
Not merely knowledge.
Wisdom.
🌿 THE CENTER
The Peacemaker
At the center of the wheel is the Peacemaker.
Not government.
Not institutions.
Not ego.
The center is living relationship with the Source of life itself.
Everything flows outward from the Center.
And when people move too far from that center, imbalance begins.
That may actually be one of the deepest warnings hidden throughout the records.
🪶 The more I studied this wheel, the more I realized something:
The Nemenhah were not simply trying to survive.
They were trying to become a balanced people.
A peaceful people.
A Zion people.
Not through domination.
But through alignment.
Alignment with:
- truth,
- creation,
- stewardship,
- covenant,
- family,
- sacrifice,
- and the Way of the Peacemaker.
🌿 And honestly?
I think that may be one of the greatest lessons we could learn today.
Modern Babylon teaches us to:
- consume,
- rush,
- dominate,
- divide,
- compete,
- and endlessly chase more.
But the Great Medicine Wheel quietly teaches something very different:
harmony.
Not passivity.
Not weakness.
Harmony.
The kind of balance that allows people to finally live in peace with:
- God,
- creation,
- one another,
- and themselves.
🪶 In the next blog, we’ll move from the cosmic pattern…
to the personal journey itself.
We’ll step into:
The Waywalker’s Wheel
— the path of learning to walk the Way one season at a time.

🌎 The Sacred Wheels of the Nemenhah
These posts are an attempt to visually and spiritually explore sacred patterns found throughout the Nemenhah records — patterns connected to:
- stewardship,
- healing,
- family,
- sacrifice,
- virtue,
- consecration,
- sacred balance,
- and the Way of the Peacemaker.
Over time, these teachings began forming what felt less like isolated doctrines and more like interconnected “wheels” of Zion living.
Not rigid systems.
Living systems.
🪶 One of the things that deeply moved me while studying these records was the role of Mohrhohnahyah (Moroni). After witnessing the collapse of his people through war, pride, greed, and division, the records suggest he and others began preserving teachings designed not merely to help people survive…
…but to help future generations learn how to live differently.
More peacefully.
More wisely.
More in harmony with the Peacemaker, creation, and one another.
🌿 These “medicine wheels” are not meant to be New Age symbols or replacements for scripture. They are simply visual teaching tools meant to help us better understand recurring Nemenhah themes:
- sacred directions,
- covenant living,
- stewardship,
- discernment,
- healing,
- and building Zion gradually through transformed hearts.
Honestly, this project has already changed the way I see the records.
Not as disconnected teachings…
…but as one living pattern quietly teaching people how to become a people of enduring peace.
Each Sunday, we’ll walk through one wheel at a time together.
Not academically.
Not dogmatically.
Just… thoughtfully.
Like sitting around a fire talking about how to walk the Way a little better in a troubled world.
🌿 I hope these posts encourage you to:
- study for yourself,
- seek the Savior more deeply,
- think about Zion differently,
- and listen more carefully for the voice of the Peacemaker in your own life.
