And finally its time to share with you the Red Deer Drums that have also arrived in the shop this week.

Such a variety of colours and textures in this last lot of Scottish Red Deer hides that I received - they've created a really beautiful range of drums and there are a few more still to get completed, photographed, recorded and listed over the next couple of weeks.❤

Some of the lovely Reindeer drums now finally listed in the shop eagerly awaiting their guardians.

This is probable my favourite hide to work with in my drum birthings (even though I know I shouldn't have favourites) 😆 There is just something about the drum road in the lands of the north and the place of ice that calls to my heart.❤

This week in amongst the photographing, listing and recording of the drums birthed earlier during the year these two beauties also arrived.

Celebrating the Blackthorn Full Super Moon in Ta**us on Wednesday I offered a prayer to the Reindeer and the Red Deer working in deep ceremony to birth two 16" Crystal Resonance Drums, drawn to the magic of the crystal devas as we begin our descent into the dark and the earth of winter.

I haven't birthed any of these unique drums for a little while. For the Reindeer drum thirteen moonstones nestle between the birch wood frame and the hide and for the Red Deer it was four Moss Agates; as well as bringing their powerful crystal energies through the drum songs, these stones act as unique crystal drum resonators. I love weaving these beings to life - it is such a privilege and an honour to be able to work with the gifts of the land and nature in this way - I feel very blessed ❤

Now resting in drying shed they will slowly make their way into the shop once they are completed with their final binding and heart stones.

I am very excited to announce that the horse drums birthed earlier this year are now finally up in my shop.
It's been getting harder to obtain natural death horse hide as often as I used to previously so it was a really treat to receive a whole hide and a few pieces of hair on hide last winter.
After sitting with them in prayer they gradually stepped forward to be birthed through the later spring and on into summer and here you can see them in all their beauty.
Hop on over to the shop to take a look if one of them calls you ❤

I have just returned from running two amazing back to back retreats and am landing back home feeling very nourished and blessed by the women who came and dove so deep in our circles.

Here are some memories from the first retreat - The Red Moon Drum Birthing at the Autumn Equinox.

Eight beautiful, powerful and inspiring women birthed their drums in ceremony together. They wove deep medicine and womb stories into their drums undertook powerful journeys and created very special womb allies to support them on their individual paths.

Next year's dates are up and booking is open at an Early Bird price if you are called to join me to birth these very powerful and unique drums - only six places remain as already women are hearing the call!

Two weeks ago today I was waiting to welcome the women to the first of two retreats. The are Moon Drum Birthing Space was ready for what became a truly magical weekend! More pictures to follow later tonight.

So both the Hazel Full Moon in Pisces and Lunar Eclipse drums are now resting in the drying shed.

These two drums are my prayers to the four legs and standing ones;woven together with my gratitude for the magical lunar energies today.

It’s been a day of lively weather with blustery winds dragging the first yellowing leaves from the trees and frequent showers too.

The wheel is turning and the seasons are shifting as we approach the Autumn Equinox in a couple of week’s time 💚

Taking a pause in the studio today to bless the first of the newly birthed Hazel Full Moon in Pisces and Lunar Eclipse drums.

Using my channelled sound for Eclipse energies in both fork and sound pipe. A harmonic blend of Moon and Sun and the Divine Feminine and Divine Masculine this sound is also known as Sacred Union.

The next eclipse drum will be flowing out through my hands later 🌕

I am beyond excited to be able to offer a very special retreat next year immediately after my Shamanic Drum Birthing Retreat at Beltane!

If you would like to join me to birth your own Ceremonial Gathering Drum then please follow this link https://ros-simons.co.uk/gathering-drum-birthing-retreat/ to read all about this very unique retreat offered for the first time in Scotland.

Ceremonial Gathering drums are powerful medicine tools that sing the heartbeat of groups to the land, to spirit and to the great mother and creating your own in ceremony, with prayers and offerings to the four legs and standing ones is a wonderful experience.

I only have space for four drums to be birthed (and one is already taken) so three remain and each drum maker (or makers - this is fabulous to make with another) will have their own doula supporting them every step of the way.

After being fully booked for a while - two places have come available on this very unique and powerful Red Moon Womb Drum Birthing (due to a couple of women having to postpone at the eleventh hour for unexpected personal reasons).

This very special retreat - now in its tenth year - is spent in ceremonial circle with your womb drum sisters allowing the voice and song of your womb medicine to birth itself into these small but powerful drums.

I realise that this is short notice and so please do contact me if you feel the call - so that we can work out a bespoke payment plan to allow you to attend.
