How to make your own Shamanic Drum
Your very own drum is a special friend who will heal you, take you on breathtaking journeys, and share with you a connection and oneness with all. To birth your own drum is a truly rewarding experience; putting your love, intent, and energy into this powerful medicine tool will create a truly special drum for you indeed.
Drum Birthing
More than just crafting a thing, when we make a shamanic drum, we do so in ceremony, to honour the animal and tree that have given of themselves for the materials for this drum, but also to welcome the spirit of the drum who will go on to be a guide, teacher, healer, and friend.
When we birth the drum in ceremony, we can speak clearly to the spirits of our intentions and dedication to the drum, showing our respect and gratitude to the lives of the animal and tree that provided the materials. In this way, we begin our relationship with the spirit of our drum in an honourable and respectful way.
