Hunka Ceremony with the Green Sheikh on the Dead Sea

With my Beloved Hunka Koda Shiekh Abdul Aziz Al Nuaimi, known widely as the "Green Sheik" at our Hunka Ceremony on the Dead Sea in the Kingdom of Jordan, January 31-February 3, 2020. We first met in the Lighting the Torch of Compassion Ceremony, at COP 22, in Marrakesh, Morroco, December 2016, where we made Sacred Vows of Unity and Respect that have been fulfilled.

In February 2018, Koda Darcy Demas and Tonska Ben Bowler joined me in a visit to the Emirate of Ajman and my Koda and his family. We were honored to learn the ablutions for purifying ourselves, before wonderful prayers with his family and community at his family's Mosque.

We were also able to learn about the noble lineage of the Emirate of Ajman and thier dedicated work to serve Allah, the People, and All Life. We visited his families treasured memories in thier original Family Palace.

Koda Darcy Demas and I had the honor to share sacred, songs and dances, with Koda Darcy doing most of the dancing, for close family members. It was a great time.

Our Traditional Ceremonies, on the Dead Sea, this past week, included naming our Koda's beloved daughter, as his Hereditary successor. As well, she said she loves water,

and sometime in the future, she would like to be known as the Blue Sheikhas, for helping to restore the waters of Mother Earth. This is her way of following the footsteps of her beloved father, our Koda, Shiekh Abdul Aziz Al Nuaimi, now known globally as the Green Shiekh.

Within Sacred, Spiritual and Cultural Hunka Protocol, our Beloved Koda's daughter, was given the name, Mni Wakan Win, Sacred Water Woman. Our Koda's name is planned to be Ceremonially given, August 2020, in the Dakotas.

Hunka Relatives like our grandfathers, Pizi and Tipi Sapa, endure until today, uniting Hunkpapas, Ihanktonwan, and others across the Oceti Sakowin and beyond. So it will be with our relatives of the Emirate of Ajman.
