Text: “National Indigenous History Month: Northern Lights Legends. Canada is home to more than 600 First Nations, Inuit and Métis communities, and many have their own versions of legends about the northern lights. Here are a few of them.” The background image features a night sky with red, purple, and green Northern Lights, accompanied by a white monochrome Northern Lights SG logo.
Text: ”Algonquin: Algonquin peoples tied the Aurora to their cultural hero, Nanabozho. They believed that after creating the world and travelling north, he built a fire so large that it could be seen from their lands around the Great Lakes to remind them he was still thinking of them. Dene: One Dene myth is tied to the story of a young boy who became a gifted healer. He used the Aurora as a guide to a distant land to heal the sick; however, he became trapped on the other side until the northern lights reappeared to guide him home.” The background image features a light purple night sky over a coniferous forest.
Text: “Cree: In many Cree legends, the Aurora are the spirits of departed ancestors dancing and trying to communicate with their loved ones. When they are bright, they are happy to see you and how you’re living your life. Children are taught not to whistle or clap at them, so as not to anger them or be taken away.” The background image is a continuation of the last slide.
Text: “Inuit: Further north, many Inuit peoples also believe the Aurora are the spirits of ancestors. In some of their legends, the twisting lights are ancestors playing a game of kicking a walrus skull “ball”, while in others, it’s walrus spirits who kick a human skull. Not all Indigenous groups viewed the lights as friendly, though. Other Inuit communities in Alaska and around Hudson Bay dreaded the lights. The Tlingit, for example, believe the lights are people who have passed in traumatic ways, such as murder or suicide and that it is bad luck to look at the lights for fear they may take you with them in their loneliness.” Background image features a bright strip of purple, white and green northern lights in a blue night sky over snow.
Part of what drew us to naming ourselves after the northern lights is that they’re one element that ties together many cultural myths.
So, for #NIHM2025, we’re sharing what they mean to Indigenous communities across Turtle Island.
