In this 6th installment of the God is Red series, Taylor Keen (Omaha / Cherokee) takes us deep into the womb of Earth Mother to explore the ancient and living stories preserved in Picture Cave, a sacred site containing Siouan rock art dating back 1,000 years. The first half of the episode is a passionate storytelling that bridges millennia, where Taylor unveils the cosmology of his ancestors through vivid tales of First Man, First Woman, Morning Star, and the Thunder Twins.

As Taylor explains, these aren't distant myths but encoded memories that continue to resonate in the blood and spirit of indigenous peoples today. The conversation then unfurls into why ancient peoples sought to document oral traditions in rock...

Whether you're indigenous to the Land below your feet or not, these ancient stories offer profound perspective on what it means to live in right relationship with land, community, and Spirit. They remind us that mythology isn't just about preserving the past—it's about creating possibilities for a more beautiful future.
