Lyrics by brother Phil Lane Jr., inspired by the igniting of the 8th Fire on October 28, 2023, in Hidalgo, Mexico, at the Annual Gathering hosted by the Consejo Nacional para el Desarrollo de los Pueblos Indígenas y Afromexicanos ( CONODEPOA) at the Annual Gathering. Music was created on Suno.
This is the Prophecy of the 8th Fire, as it was passed to us by Brothers Eddie Benton and Dave Courchene, and Uncle William Commanda, as best remembered.
The Eighth Fire Prophecy is a traditional teaching among Indigenous peoples of the Eagle, rooted in the Anishinaabe Nation. It reminds us of our collective responsibility to choose unity and peace, inspiring hope for a harmonious future.
The First Fire was when Indigenous people received their original instructions and teachings. It was a time of balance and harmony.
The Second Fire marks a time when Indigenous peoples began to wander and seek new lands in response to pressure from other groups. It was a time of migration and adaptation.
The Third Fire represents the time when Indigenous peoples first settled their homelands on Turtle Island, and their populations experienced significant growth. It was a time of prosperity and growth.
The Fourth Fire symbolizes a period of conflict and struggle among Indigenous nations, brought about by the arrival of European settlers. It was a time of war and disease.
The Fifth Fire signifies a crucial moment of decision, urging us to reflect on paths of destruction or renewal and emphasizing the importance of our choices for the future.
The Sixth Fire represented a time of rebirth and revival when Indigenous peoples began to heal and renew their spiritual and cultural practices after a period of turmoil.
The Seventh Fire is characterized by the emergence of "New People" who seek guidance from the Elders, but even though they will find that some Elders are asleep, or unwilling to help, they must persevere, no matter the challenges, until they become that which they are seeking in the inmost chambers of their
The New People must be cautious in their approach.
At this time, the light-skinned race faces a critical choice between destruction and returning to the wisdom of and cooperation with Indigenous peoples.
The Eighth Fire: The eighth fire is the final stage, where humanity faces the choice made in the seventh fire. If the people, including the light-skinned race, choose the right path of unity, peace, and cooperation, the eighth fire will be lit.
This will usher in a golden age of peace, love, brotherhood, and sisterhood. However, if they make the wrong choice, the destructive forces that came with colonization will return, causing suffering and death to all.
The Seventh and Eighth Fires prophecy a critical juncture in human history, at which we are called to make choices that lead to a harmonious, peaceful future or to continued conflict and suffering. The fires serve as a reminder to respect and learn from Indigenous wisdom and traditions, fostering unity and peace.
CONODEPOA, the Union of the Condor Hummingbird, Quetzal, Eagle, and Four Worlds, Kindred Spirits Ireland, the SINE Network, and Signatories of the Binding Planetary Peace Treaty, initiated at Dripsey Castle, Cork County, Ireland, July 20, 2025, and others have chosen the Path of the Eighth Fire, the Sacred Path to Unite Humanity, End War, and Restore Mother Earth.
