The Grayhorse Buffalo Bull Clan Medicine Perspective:

• Remember that Osage Clan Medicines are specific to each clan, sub-clans, and sometimes districts.
• Those Osage who still know your clans and your clan elders should contact them for your specific clan medicine instructions.
• Those Osage who do not know your clan elders or whose families have "put the old way behind you" should contact your new spiritual/religious leaders for their advice.

• For those Grayhorse Buffalo Bull Clan members who are paying attention:  In addition to the very specific instructions provided to each of you, a tea preparation will aid and comfort you during the upcoming pandemic.
  • Grayhorse Buffalo Bull Clan Tea:
