Horse Hair in Native American Culture

I am very fortunate to live on the same land as a beautiful shaman couple, one of whom is Blackfoot Native.  This is the write-up I prepared from what he taught me.  I am going to start including it with all of my horse hair jewelry.

The Blackfoot believe that the horse is a very powerful and loyal animal.  Wearing their hair will bring you strength and aid you through life’s journeys, both physical and spiritual.  The horse hair also gives you the power to harness yourself but not to allow anybody to bridle you.
