The Spirit of the Drum Oracle
Frame Drum - Enthronement
In the sacred presence of the Great Mother is heard the universal beat of the frame drum, as the mystical rites of initiation prepare for transformation.
Let go of the hurts of the past and ready yourself, in self-dedication, for pure divine connection in a vow of secrecy with the goddess. Nurture yourself, prepare spiritually and be ready to embrace the secret revelation of your life purpose and great vision as you welcome the grand procession of your enthronement.
Drum Birthing - Alchemy
Ode to the alchemy of existence, birthed through the primordial sound of the drum: the universe’s profound hum.
Like the alchemist’s quest for the philosopher’s stone, your journey may be filled with mystery and wonder. The crucible of life’s experiences, both positive and challenging, serves as the vessel for your transformation. Embrace these, for they are the fires that refine your character and spirit. As you navigate the complexities of existence, remember that the pursuit of inner gold is a lifelong endeavour. It’s not about instant gratification, but about gradual refinement. Your life’s alchemy is a testament to your resilience and adaptability and the innate human capacity for growth and change.
Bodhrán Drum - Heritage
The rich lineage that is my heritage unveils the answers to my future, providing a sense of identity, community and belonging.
When the bodhrán beats it’s time to look into your family’s history and learn stories from the past. Find out where your family came from and trace your ancestry back, as discovering your heritage will give you a deep sense of self. A clash is not a rarity in families, so allow the bodhrán beats to clear the feeling of being held by past rows, hurts or betrayal and move on. You can finally be free to enjoy family gatherings, knowing exactly who you are. It is time to come together at a ceilidh and join in the dance.
Using your Spirit of the Drum Oracle cards
Spirit of the Drum Oracle is designed to be a healing tool. Along with the 36 colourful hand-drawn cards in the deck, this booklet outlines complete guidance for each card from a specific drum, the healing vibrational beats of a drum, an incantation to connect with a drum’s vibes and details about how and for what each drum was used.
When working with the drum we must honour the drum keepers who have gone before us, the ones who kept the spirit of the drum alive even in the face of adversity. We give our thanks and gratitude to them for their wisdom and knowledge.
