To birth a drum is to call a spirit into being. In ceremony we weave together hide and wood, prayer and song, gratitude and intention — until a living ally is born. Each drum carries its own voice and medicine, walking with you as a companion between worlds.
Through gratitude rituals, you will honour the animal and tree that gave of themselves and connect with their spirits as allies in the birthing of your drum. You may also choose runic guidance, adding runes or bindrunes painted with intention to weave the old magic into your drum.
