Our Logo
Seven Generations of Stewards gets its name from the principle that decisions being made today about our energy, water, and natural resources take into account sustainability for seven generations into the future.
The SGS logo is based on the four colors of our Medicine Wheel. The Medicine Wheel teaches that harmony, balance, and respect for all parts are needed to sustain life. It may also represent the circle of life. Different tribes interpret the Medicine Wheel differently and so the colors of the medicine wheel or even how it is displayed, for a particular tribe may be different. For the SGS logo colors, we chose to select White, Black, Yellow, and Red we interpret as the four directions and the human race. For our logo, the colors intermingle representing that no color is more important than the other.
The colors can represent the stages of life, the seasons of the year, aspects of life, elements of nature, animals, or ceremonial plants as well as others.
The color Yellow may represent the East direction, Morning, spring, Tobacco, and the early stage of life.
The color Black may represent the South direction, evening, autumn, Sweet grass, and the youthful stage of life.
The color Red may represent the West direction, late morning to early afternoon, summer, Sage, and the adult or parenting stage of life.
The color White may represent the North direction, night or twilight, winter, Cedar, and the elder stage of life.
No matter what the colors of the medicine wheel are or the depiction of the wheel, the colors and representations give us guidance along the red road.
