I've found in my readings and research that all around the globe
indigenous peoples have legends of Rainbow Woman and her children -- the
Rainbow Family (one of the reasons i was drawn to check y'all out i s'pose).
The most recent i discovered is from northwestern europe (interesting
perhaps to you Karin since you have roots there). unfortunately i no
longer have the bibliographic info for it (the secondary source it came
from was borrowed).

we are the ancient future.

peace and blessings
