Nanny, we are all prone to our own dream interpretations. As for the native interpretation I was given, we must consider that many of them are very parallel to Christian stories as well. To summarize, a 'great Father' wishes us to be kind to each other, live in harmony with nature, and to not do evil but benefit our communities and the poor/needy that cannot take care of their own. We are told by both to 'respect the elder', to not make laws against nature or vehemently against each other, and to not be greedy (taking only what we need). The symbolism that native vs Christian were given may be literally different, by symbolically similar.
That said, we find far more evil wrapped in 'western religious iconography' throughout the past thousand years of earth's history than we do in the native philosophies. We see European Caucasian-decent peoples (of which my bloodline is predominant) as aggressors who came to a nation they were not given, and took it by dozens of broken treaties while killing 90-million native inhabitants, for the sake of personal gain; setting the Bible as the keystone on the grave marker of another conquered nation as justification and 'validated right' that what we did wasn't wrong.
If Israel is only a geographical marker, and 'America' is the actual 'Spiritual Israel' spoken of in end-times prophecy, then the native view of the 'Ghost-Dance' promises genocide to the whites (and others) who took North America from the native peoples. This, by the way, I have seen and felt for years - that the spoken of 'Tribes of Israel' are actually hidden in America as the 12 key native tribes in North America, and that the 'real Armegeddon' would not only happen here, but that it was about those who overthrew and tried to destroy the native peoples for sake of greed.
Speaking from the side of the 'reigning victor', we have most-certainly earned our punishment, if this is the case. We can't even admit to what we did, even now. Any who profess 'righteousness' need ask themself one thing first: 'when was the last time you prayed for forgiveness for what your forefathers did to the native peoples they destroyed to have their 2-story house they have now?'
The answer is, of course, very few. Personal gain and greed, before all else. See the theme here?
