The Journey of the Waters

“The Journey of The Waters” is one of the ceremonies that Changing Woman a major feminine deity of the Apache, left to Her People. It is a 400 mile journey through New Mexico and Colorado into sacred, healing waters - an ancient quest for purification and transformation.

The healing ceremonies of the “Journey of the Waters” are available to non-native people today due to the vision and persistence of Oh Shinnah who pleaded with her elders and teachers for fifteen years before gaining permission to share these sacred healing ceremonies with the world. This spiritual sojourn has transformed the lives of countless people seeking release from old patterns of thought and behavior that trapped them in unhappy, unhealthy lives.

Each year, Oh Shinnah, along with Deep Arrow Woman and Bright Owl, the two apprentices she chose by way of a prophetic dream to carry on this work, take a group of international, non-native men and women on this life affirming and life-altering journey from Ojo Caliente, New Mexico to Ouray, Colorado.
