Halo


By: David A. Johnson

For the Ojibwe people, all things
in the natural world are believed
to have a spirit. Trees, animals, birds,
and fish all have a spirit. Even the
rocks, rivers, and lakes have spirit.

The moon is considered to be woman
spirit. The figure that you see in the
painting is the spirit of the moon.
David used simple lines to indicate the
spirit because spirits are rarely visible.
For example: there are actually two
spirits in the painting...

The other spirit is Mother Earth.
If you look very carefully, you may
be able to see her face as a profile.
The lowermost star is her eye.
