May carries the gentle warmth of early summer across Ktunaxa ʔamakʔis (Ktunaxa territory), as the land fully awakens and begins to flourish. Blossoms burst into colour, grasses grow tall, and the songs of birds fill the morning air. The rivers, once swollen with snowmelt, begin to steady, reflecting the clear skies above.
This is a time of growth and movement — a season for tending gardens, honouring the land’s abundance, and coming together in community. As life thrives around us, May invites gratitude, connection, and a renewed sense of purpose under the brightening sun.
