Sacred Ceremonial Birthing of your Spirit Drum & Rattle! 💖💖💖
Beltane Sound Bath under the Full Moon. 💖💖💖
Join Raye Andrews and April Walker for the exciting experience of Birthing Your Own Spirit Drum & Rattle!
To birth a drum is to create a lifetime companion that breathes with you and speaks for the parts of your soul that have no words.
💖
The drum symbolizes the heartbeat of Mother Earth, of life itself, and the heartbeat of a community. It is not simply an instrument or an art form, but a spirit companion that grows with you, helping you navigate altered states of consciousness and on your spiritual journey. It assists you in cleansing, centering, and focusing your intentions for health and happiness. Drum Birthing is an honor, a meditation and a meaningful lifelong connection.
💖
Rattle birthing is a sacred experience that bridges the physical and spiritual worlds. It becomes an intentional creation. Birthing your own rattle is a sacred process that transforms a physical object into a living spiritual ally. Your rattle and drum will be infused with your specific DNA, breath, and intention, creating a unique energetic resonance between the creator and the sacred spirit animal.
