Those born between March 21 to April 19 in the period of the Budding Trees Moon, have the fire opal as their mineral totem, the dandelion as their plant totem and the red hawk as their animal totem. Their colour is yellow.
Like their mineral totem, Red Hawk people can often be found near hot spots or places of pressure either in the literal or figurative sense. Red Hawk people like the sun and warmth, and they also like to be in active situations which can utilize their intense mental, physical and emotional energy. Like their stone, they are porous, and their spirits can be easily stained if they associate themselves with the wrong ideas or people. They are usually open people, willing to listen to any new ideas. They can sparkle constantly with small pin fires of energy, or they can be ones who only flash sometimes when the fires of vitality spring up in them, or they can be harlequins, with regular fire formations that glow constantly. This type of Red Hawk person is very valuable, as they can not only begin projects but also keep them going with strength of their energy. They also have a direct connection with the sun, and with fire because they are also of the Thunderbird clan.
Like the dandelion, Red Hawk people have the tendency to pop up all over the place, since they are usually flying from one project to another. All of the energy of the Red Hawk people, like all the parts of the dandelion, are a treasure house of useful things to those who take the time to understand them.
They are forthright and sincere, and often right in what they see.
The dandelion can be of great benefit to Red Hawk people. It can clear congestion in the head, as they can be "headstrong".
Like the red-tailed hawk, these people can be large people, in spirit if not in body, and they have the capacity to spread their wings to a great width. They are hunters, hunting out new things to do, new projects to begin, new philosophies to explore.
They tend to be fearless, often going after what they see as the rattlesnakes of the world with little regard for their own safety. They have no patience with people they see as hypocritical or unjust. They can attack, and their talons can truly sting. However, when in flight, they are truly amazing.
The sky is the realm of the Red Hawks. They see how things should be on earth. They are natural optimists, strong-willed and energetic in their determination to set things right. They are independent people, and thinkers, and they are always sincere about what they think and feel. They make good leaders.
Yellow is the colour of the sun and the dandelion. This colour helps the Red Hawk people to to turn their thinking into wisdom. More than other people they must guard against burning themselves out, so the fire within them can always bring warmth and light to the things they touch.
As people from other places on the medicine wheel travel through this position, they will find new depths of energy and leadership within themselves.
