“One of the biggest forms of taboo in Navajo culture is death. That's something that we don't really acknowledge or like to talk about. And when it does happen, it's dealt with very quickly. And an eclipse is essentially a disturbance or the death of the sun. And he's considered a father figure in Navajo culture," Littlefeather explained.
Littlefeather described the sun as the reason "why we have everything," including plants and a harvest.
"For that split second, the sun has died. And when he comes back, he is reborn in some way," she said.
Littlefeather and others with the same belief system mourn the loss of that life source during the eclipse.
"We're essentially mourning his disappearance at this time, so we're trying to be very dormant in our regular routine," Littlefeather said. "I'll be following my traditional practices and making sure that I'm not doing any heavy household work, any work in general, making sure that I'm not eating or taking any water during this time."
