The Desert Cloud Flute Circle is focused on advancing  the appreciation of Native American music and Native American culture.

 

Our theme "Mitakuye Oyasin" (All Are Related) is a traditional Lakota Sioux prayer, with its opening phrase used as a refrain in many Lakota prayers and songs. It reflects the inherent belief of most Native American  traditions and belief systems that "Everything is Connected". Native American tribes revere the prayer. It is used in many spiritual ceremonies and activities and is employed as a prayer to end other prayers after which the sacred food or sacred pipe is passed around.
