Our guest PAPA COYOTE is a practitioner of Pow Wow Medicine, the Root Medicine
and Conjuring of the Pennsylvania Dutch, is a combination of Eastern European
folk Christianity and superstition, ceremonial magic, Cabbalistic influence,
Judeo-Christian folklore. And depending on what part of the Appalachian Trail
you are from it may also include, shamanic practices, Native teachings and
Hoodoo practices derived from the beliefs of Africans brought to the U.S. during
the time of slavery. The word Pow Wow is early 17th century: from Narragansett
powáw ‘magician’ (literally ‘he dreams’) The proper name is Speilwork
or Braucherei. Adepts are called Braucher, Hexenmeisters, or just Hexens. It is
Norse/Teutonic Pagan Folk Medicine. This calls upon the Old Germanic God's for
healing. This is the Folk Medicine that Pow Wow Medicine is derived from. I am
looking forward to talking about traditions I have not heard about before and
how they are similar and related to other traditions I have learned from.
