Drumming Circle Info
Using the drum to explore our inner and outer worlds, this circle is for those who are seeking knowledge from the higher realms to assist them on their life path. When done quarterly, one is able to review the last 3 months of their life and plan for the following three months; adjusting one's life path as needed based on the guidance received. Using ritual, ceremony, drumming, toning, chanting and ancient peruvian whistling vessels we will journey deep into the realms of spirit and spontaneous flow. Each evening evolves from the energy of the group dynamic spontaneously.
This event consists of various segments where we will progressively go deeper into our spiritual worlds of Light, allowing mystery and magic to unfold. It begins with a group meditation in the Odyssey sound and Light Temple. From there, we will unify the circle and bring together our dreams and visions, sharing the symbolic pipe of brother/sisterhood. We
will then join our voices and merge with the planetary grid and gently move
into harmony through the beat of the drum. As we shift in and out of
shamanic and ecstatic states of drumming, dancing, and singing - we release
ourselves to merge with the primal and sacred to SEE, with unbending
intent, in the unknown realms of primal manifestation. We will then call
forth the wisdom of the ancient and powerful Peruvian Whistling Vessels*;
opening our third eyes and expanding our crown centers up into the cosmos.
We close the ceremony with sharing and community. This is the basic format, but we always remain open to shift and change to allow the spontaneous group energy dynamic to evolve.
Extra drums and percussion instruments are available. Feel free to bring your own instruments as well.
Energy Exchange/Donation: $10 (this offering suggestion just honors the time and setting of space that we provide for this event, if you feel strongly guided to attend, but money is an issue, please come anyway and offer what you can)
Shaman Guides: Gary & JoAnn Chambers have been leading shamanic drumming circles for over a decade. They do 4 a year during the equinoxes and solstices. You can visit their website to learn more about their work on the planet.
Additional Details: The group is small because of space, so sign up early. We create a safe, open and loving space for you to explore your inner worlds. Our land and home is a sacred space and we ask you to honor that energy while you are here. Grandfather crystal will be present during all ceremonies as well.
It is recommended that you do some lite fasting and/or some cleansing/detoxing prior to this event or at least eat a vegetarian diet a few days prior. We do not use plant teachers to alter consciousness, but there will be various essences and teas available to heighten your senses, if you would like. This is optional and at your discretion.
*Peruvian Whistling Vessels - we own a set of 7 of these vessels ..... legends have been told that they were used by cultures to connect with the higher dimensions by some of the most ancient civilizations on the planet to guide their people as needed. These may or may not make an appearance.
