Seminole Religion
Dreams- The Seminole believed that everyone had dreams. When someone had a dream, they would talk or either ask the old ones for guidance.
Spirit Helpers: The Seminole Indians also believed that each of their own had their own spirit helper. Each one was their own & unique like their owner. To them the spirit helper helped them in ways when they needed strength to keep on going. They prayed to their spirit to help them out in whatever situation they were going through. Funeral Practices- When someone were to pass away they would bury them in a coffin with clothes and house utensils. This was a symbol of respect for their loved ones and to move on. In whichever chikee they were living at the time they would move and let it go until another family moved in. All this was a symbol to them that still to this day means a lot to them. This is all in their daily life religion. |
