2014 Canada $20 Seven Sacred Teachings: Wisdom Fine Silver (No Tax)

The beaver is one of seven animals featured in the Seven Sacred Teachings practiced by Aboriginal people throughout North America for living a full and happy life. The beaver's lesson is wisdom; going beyond the mere acquisition of knowledge to carefully observe one's environment and find lessons in life events. Experience is the foundation of wisdom, and the sharing of individual wisdom is the cornerstone of a strong community.

Canadian Metis artist Nathalie Bertin has created a powerful image of a beaver offering a tree branch to an abstract figure. The beaver's size emphasizes the importance of nature to humanity's survival and represents how the beaver taught the Anishinaabe people about the poplar tree's powerful medicines; its bark providing the background pattern that reinforces the beaver's teachings.
