Medicine Wheel Symbolism
In addition to being a symbol of the natural cycles of life, the medicine wheel can also represent the Four Directions: Earth, Air, Fire, and Water.
Medicine wheels can also incorporate images that tell the story of creation and represent deities like Father Sky, Mother Earth, and the Great Spirit.
In modern Cherokee and native art, the medicine wheel can become an even more personally meaningful symbol of the artist’s own creative journey.
The medicine wheel was thought to also show the path to healing, health, and balance.
