The Planet Earth is a gift to each and every one of us. This is an environmental education web site with plenty of Pictures of the Planet Earth.
Sacred Dance, Ceremonial Dance, Song, and prayer, Sweat Lodges, Environmental Action, Environmental Education, Species Extinction, EarthDance Ceremonies, Synchronous Events, Pollution Reports these are all part of the Earthkeeper’s life.
The power of ideas and the power of spiritual involvement with the natural environment move the heart. Earthkeepers can influence the people by helping them to reconnect with the beauty of the Planet Earth. We encourage Environmental activism for preservation of our wildlands and conservation of our resources.
But to touch the heart, we cannot assault the mind. Each of us comes to our relationship with the Earth in our own way and time. Our hope is that through education and ceremony, we, as Earthkeepers, can keep the door open for those who have yet to find that relationship.
We do this by presenting different ways of relating to the Earth and different ways of thinking about our future. We also present information about how our current ideas and ways we relate to the Planet Earth will affect our children and grandchildren.
“There are many with the knowledge of Earthkeepers, but there are few with the hearts of Earthkeepers. ”
“Christians talk about love, but they practice judgment. New Age-ers talk about oneness, but they are the most divisive people I know. And those who practice Native American ways are – often – like both.”
“This is not a right to pray this way. It is a responsibility.”
“Each of us comes to our relationship with the Earth in our own way and time.”
“The Earthkeeper’s way involves us in the experiences of the Earth’s spiritual presence. It is a spiritual practice, not a religion.”
“Earthkeeper ceremonial practice is not just a sweat lodge or a drumming circle or a talking circle or a web of life council, or a medicine wheel ceremony or a pipe ceremony. It is a way of life.”
“The power to change always lies in the present. Drumming, singing, dance all help to strip away the dark smoke of our illusion… it is the illusion of being in the past or future.”
“Many refer to the person who practices the way of the Sacred Pipe as a Pipe Carrier. This is like a title that bestows some sense of authority or greater personal spiritual power. As much as I would like that to be so, I have to tell you one thing before we proceed. Over the last 25 years if there is only one thing I have learned it is that the Pipe Carries me!”

Dear Earth keeper,
I have a special walk with the whitedeer. The whitedeer came to me in sweatlodge
during the fourth round when Grandfather can talk with you. I saw a vision with the whitedeer that forever changed my life. I have been given the inspiration to write stories for children that focus on different species of animals , plants that are endangered. I bring in the spiritual with the practical of what we can do to make a difference. The whitedeer energy has been so strong this week, it led me to to your website. As I was reading, I was amazed…then Grandmother Whitedeer’s comment mirrors exactly what I feel. Thank you for putting the energy and truth of what I feel into physical form. I look forward to more sharing and rejoicing of being with my tribe of people who are here to help the precious voice of our planet be heard. Aho, I am so grateful and amazed by the gift Spirit gave me today, leading me to this site. I leave you in light and joy,
Marsha Jehn

I have been exploring the mountains since i was too young to be doing so. Nature has taught me of many things. Lessons not formed in words. If you seek wisdom stop and listen to the waterfall.

With HeartFelt Gratitude, Love and Prayers of Many Blessings
to You for maintaining and continuing my Dearest most
Beloved Friend, Brother Earthkeeper, John Armbruster’s website
in such a good way.
I first had the good fortune of meeting John soon after I arrived
in Sedona Arizona in the spring of 1990. I would attend the full moon drummings at John’s beautiful medicine wheel on Schnebly
Hill. John had the gift of keeping a circle together in a sacred
manner. When people would ask me to introduce them to a shaman, it was John who was the one I would talk about. He was humble and had no airs, only love and reverence for the Earth Mother. He was my best friend, as I am sure anyone who knew him would say, he always available to me and anyone who was called on him.
I wished to share with you an “Urgent Call from our Earth Mother
to all Earthkeepers and Lightworkers” I have it posted on my website www.astrojourneys.com a link to it on the intro page or astro musings page. I dedicated this to our Earth Mother and Beloved John Armbruster with a link to theearthkeepers.com
Please if you feel it appropriate, put this on your website.
I am presently in Sedona, AZ but will be leaving this sunday 20 May for Glastonbury England where I will be until October 7.
I may not be online much until June. Please if you are able to
email me before this sunday 20 May, I would love to make a heartlink through email.
I will carry the earthkeepers in my heart and soul wherever I journey.
Eternally in Unity and Love, Elizabeth HeartStar Keller

For all of those who were so kind to me while I was in Sedona for John’s memorial service, I thank you. I know it has been years since his passing, believe me I count the days…. he is busy continuing his work for the Earthmother on the other side. Ariel and I feel your presence still. In love and light, Jennifer

I find you people to be total hypocrites of the highest order, do you not use gasoline every day ? your V8 monsters pouring out pollution in enormous quantities ? if you were that concerned for Mother Earth then why do you not give up the internal combustion engine, become vegetarian and stop slaughtering animals, become one with nature, as I am, and without the sound of a drum to be heard, practise what you preach why dont you !!!! you pathetic bunch of fools ..

Well it has been awhile I all are well and happy. I seem that everyone in the u.s is
hiding there head in the sand. Were watching
our mother being poisoned with oil. And having the evil corporation lying to us.and roping our children and grandchildren of a right that grandfather has given us. Our oceans are being poisoned and we act like all is fine. You believe the crap that the media feeds us. when we know its all lies. If we don’t speak don’t speak up for our mother who will. Our humans allover the earth are in great pain and suffering because profit has become more important then then our plaint or plaint or animal life. If we don’t put a stop to this. Mother earth well and man will not like the results. You think of our plaint as just a rock. Instead of understanding that mother earth is spiritual enmity man is just a passenger. Please understand that balance between plaints and animals is very important. If we don’t put the enfranchise on our fire fighters and fire prevention and see plaint brothers and sister. And protect them and love them as our own children.Our mother is very angry at our behavior if you can’t see it your blind. We have to amend our ways of doing business and learn how to make a living taking care of our mother instead of murdering our brothers and sister in the name of war. And telling our-self were doing the right thing in the name of Christ. Well I’m no Christen and by there actions I wouldn’t want to be.
They say one thing do the other. Nature only kills to live. Man lives to kill, sick I think Well if you think I wrong just say so. bye

IS ABOUT TIME
IT SEEMS IT MUST BE TIME TO SPEAK OUT ABOUT MAN’S ABSOLUTE INSANITY . IT SEEMS MANS GREED AND STUPIDITY HAS GOTTEN OUT OF HAND . HIS
LOVE OF MONEY AND POWER HAS GONE BEYOND SANITY . HIS STUPIDLY IS WITHOUT BONDERIES AND HAS GONE BEYOND THE STATE OF SANITY . THE IDEA THAT WE HAVE THE RIGHT TO DO ANY THING WE WANT WITH NO RESPECT FOR MOTHER EARTH. TO BAD WE HAVE Engineered OUR OWN DEMISE. YOUR UNREALISTIC IDEA THAT GOD WELL SAVE YOU NO MATTER THEY DO TO HER PLANET. IT IS UNREALISTIC AND SELFISH , YOU SAY YOUR BOOK SAYS LOVE YOUR ENEMY AND THEN YOU GO ABOUT MAKING ENOUGH ATOMIC BOOMS TO DESTROY TEN PLAINTS . YOU THINK THAT JESUS AND GOD ARE GOING TO SAVE YOU. BUT WHY WOULD THEY WHEN WE’VE DESTROYED THE WORLD THEY CREATED. WHY IF GOD EXISTS WOULD HE REWARD ANY ONE THAT HAS DESTROYED HIS WORLD. AND WE ALL HAVE, NONE INNOCENT . YES ALL GUILTY . YES ME MOST OF ALL
BECAUSE I KNOW THAT YOUR YOUR WORDS OF GOD AND JESUS ARE ALL LIES. YOUR RELIGIONS
BOTTOM LINE IS PROFIT AND YOU ALL KNOW IT TOO. BUT YOUR TO A FEARED TO ADMIT
IT. IF YOU COULD.KNOW THAT THE CREATOR IS AN ENERGY NOT A ENTITY. AND EVERYTHING ON THIS PLANET IS A PART OF THAT ENERGY . AND DESERVES RESPECT IN ITS OWN RIGHT
WE ARE SO STUPID TO THINK WE CAN DISRESPECT MOTHER EARTH AND SHE WOULD NOT RETALIATE .
WELL SEE IF YOU CAN PLUG UP THE WHOLE WE’VE MADE WITH MONEY.
BECAUSE WE’VE ALLOWED GREEDY AND SELFISH MEN TO RUN AND CONTROL OUR COMPANY’S AND
OUR COUNTRY’S WHO HAVE NO RESPECT FOR OUR PLANET.. THIS IS THE RESULTS
WE HAVE ALLOWED GREEDY AND STUPID MEN TO GAIN POWER OVER OUR COUNTRY AND PLAINT
NOW IS THE TIME TO SPEAK UP. OR WE’LL HAVE NO ONE TO BLAME BUT OURSELF’S.
EVERY THING THAT MODERN MAN HAS TOUCHED HAS TURNED TO SHIT. THIS OIL SPELL WELL
CHANGE LIFE AS WE KNOW IT. AND IF YOU THINK JESUS OR ALIEN’S ARE GOING TO SAVE
US. YOUR CRAZY. IF WE THINK WE CAN MESS WITH NATURE AND COME OUT ON TOP YOUR CRAZY.
SPRAYING CHEMICALS IN OUR ATMESPHIRE IS THE WAY TO SAVE OUR PLAINT YOUR
NUTS. WELL LETS HOPE THAT ALL WELL WORK OUT O.K. BUT I WOULDN’T BET ON IT. YOUR IDEAS OF GOD AND JESUS HAS DONE MORE HARM TO MANKIND THEN ANY OTHER THING. YOU HAVE
COME ONTO OUR LAND AND GAVE US SICKNESS AND DEATH. IN EXCHANGE FOR THE LAND YOU:VE
TAKEN KNOW-THING BUT Empty WORDS AND LIES . NOW YOU’VE NOT ONLY DESTROYED US BUT
YOURS SELFS TOO. ITS THAT CRAZY IDEA THAT GOD AND JESUS ARE WHITE . WELL JESUS WAS A
SEMITIC WHO ARE BROWN SKINNED PEOPLE. IT DOESN’T MATTER BECAUSE JESUS ISN’T REAL JUST
A IDEA THAT IS USED TO CONTROL PEOPLE . THE HISTORY OF CHRISTIANITY IS SO SICK THAT YOU ALL SHOULD BE ASHAMED TO EVEN CONSIDER IT. IT HAS AND STILL IS A DESTRUCTIVE FORCE
ON THIS PLAINT. YOUR STUPID WARS OVER AND OVER AGAIN SHOWS THAT WHAT YOU SAY AND
WHAT YOU DO IS TWO DIFFERENT THINGS. SO PLEASE LET’S STOP LYING TO YOURSELF S AND CALL IT AS IT IS. YOU’VE PROVEN THAT YOUR WORDS ARE ONLY EMPTY SAYING AND HAVE NO HONOR.
THE TIME HAS COME TO STOP BELIVING IN FAIRY TAILS AND UNDERSTAND THAT THE SPIRITUAL
BEING OF THIS PLANET IS THE EARTH . MAN HAS NO UNDERSTANDING OF THE CREATOR HIS ONLY UNDERSTANDING IS DEATH AND DESTRUCTION .. PLEASE STOP BEING SO ARIGANT . IF YOU WANT TO BELIEVE IN ANYTHING BELIEVE IN KINDNESS. THAT IS ALL WE NEED TO LIVE A GOOD LIFE AND SHOW OUR APPRECIATION FOR THIS WONDERFULL AND SPECIAL WORLD WE LIVE ON. BUT I’M AFRIED IT’S TO LATE. GO ON PLAYING RELEGION AND SEE WHAT YOU’LL GET. I’VE LIVED A LONG TIME AND DONE A LOT OF STUPID THINGS . BUT THE STUPIDEST OF ALL WAS TO LESSEN TO ALL THAT RELIGIOUS CRAP. I THINK IF JESUS DID EXIST AND THE THINGS THAT HE SAID AND DID WERE OF A GOOD HEART. BUT HE WAS A JEWISH PRIEST AND THE LAST THING IN THE WORLD HE WOULD SAY IS THAT HE WAS GOD. BUT WE ALL ARE A PART OF THE WHOLE AND WHOLE IS THE CREATOR
BE THE PART OF THE CREATOR THAT IS KIND. AND YOU WELL BE ALL YOU NEED TO BE. STOP
BELIEVING IN EVIL. AND START BELIEVING in LOVE AND BEAUTY. SEE ONLY THE GOOD IN ALL THINGS AND YOUR LIFE WILL BE ONE OF BEAUTY AND WHO AND WHAT AM I . I AM BUT A TRAVELER IN TIME AND SPACE.AND HAVE LITTLE CONTROL OVER ANYTHING. ALL I CAN DO IS ENJOY AND APPRECIATE FOR THAT IS THE ONLY THING WE REALLY HAVE CONTROL OF. I KNOW THERE ARE MANY THAT SEE LIFE DIFFERENT BUT LOOK AT THE FACTS. HOW LONG HAS CHRISTIANITY BEEN AROUND. AND LOOK AT OUR WORLD. I REST MY CASE.
