In various stages of relaxation, we gathered on the couch and talked about life from where we’re thinking of going to college to old elementary school memories.
The Apache Sunrise Ceremony is a laborious 4 day and night ceremony that Apache girls partake in after completion of their first menstrual cycle. The Apache Indians, most of whom live on reservations in New Mexico and Arizona, believe that their earliest Apache relative is the ‘White Painted Woman’, that from her came life and the embodiment of earth itself.
