Mother Goddess
Red Drum Making Journey

Sunday, November 7th
9am to 5pm MST

Women Only - An honoring of the Sacred Feminine

Led by Drum Maker, Carrier and Ceremonialist Kim Johnson

“Because drumming was recognized as an ancient source and symbol of the power of female technicians of the sacred, drumming was banned. Henceforth divinity was to be exclusively masculine. The suppression of women was directly linked to the suppression of the goddess.” - Layne Redmond, When the Drummers were Women”

― Layne Redmond, When the Drummers Were Women: A Spiritual History of Rhythm

Where: Katherine Skaggs' Studio at 3148 Birmingham Drive, Fort Collins, CO  80526

What is it? A Mother Goddess Red Drum Making Workshop

In her book, When the drummers Were Woman,” Layne Redmond says:“The drum was the means our ancestors used to summon the goddess and also the instrument through which she spoke. The drumming priestess was the intermediary between divine and human realms. Aligning herself with sacred rhythms, she acted as summoner and transformer, invoking divine energy and transmitting it to the community.”

Participating in this sacred red drum making ceremony will empower you to take up the sacred instrument of the red drum, as well as activate you in awakening your divine inner drumming priestess. Listen for the ancient goddesses calling you now, to return to the heartbeat of the Divine Mother. Whether you are maiden, mother, or crone, if you are called to this sacred ceremonial drum making day, pay attention and know that you must answer the call to the deep heartbeat of the Divine Feminine within your own being.

What you will learn? 

Learn how to make a Mother Goddess Red Drum and the accompanying Herstory, and so much more.

You will learn how to ceremonially make a Sacred Red Drum; The Herstory significance of the Red Drum, Women and Blood Mysteries; Spiritual Aspects of Drumming, Sacred 13, the return of the Divine Feminine; the heartbeat of the drum and the heartbeat of the Great Mother and all her wisdom; the significance of the color red; ceremony for waking your drum up and caring for your drum; the significance and blessing of the salt bowl ceremony; the spiritual Herstory of rhythm; deepened awareness of how ancient knowledge links to the importance of passion and the core sustenance of joy in our daily life.

What is the ceremony of the day?

A Day of the Divine Feminine

The day will be full of ceremony from beginning to end. Be cleaned and cleared energetically when all are gathered. An opening of the directions will create a sacred container for you and all who gather in this sacred day of honoring the Divine Feminine within and all around.
