Our Purpose
We, the Hereditary Elders of the world, unite in peace, integrity and harmony to gather and share ancestral wisdom and knowledge; and to guide, heal, restore and align all earth relatives and timelines within natural law.
Our Vision
We envision a world, where all voices are heard, respected and honoured; where all sentient beings weave threads of harmonious creation and growth in gratitude and balance with each other and the Earth.
Our History
From the rich soil of Ancestral Wisdom, a new Dawn arises. We, the Custodians of Ancient traditions, gather in Sacred Circle, to unite our diverse voices, and to welcome a new era for the Earth.
For millennia, First Nation Peoples lived within the interconnectedness of all Beings on Earth. Despite the shadows cast by colonial power and the Doctrine of Discovery, we endure, preserving our Ancestral Knowledge and creating a just future.
The founding of the World Hereditary Council signifies a turning point.
We unite as Architects in harmony with Nature and embrace global healing and
atonement to create a future that thrives.
