Rattles are the sound of the North in the medicine wheel. Their sound assimilate the rain therefore a good cleanser of dense energies stuck in body, mind or spaces. They are also used for traveling into other realms, journeying to the North where our ancestors, teachers and guides live.
In this workshop you will craft a traditional yet upgraded Elk-rattle for ceremonial and healing use. As I recently received a download to “update” the rattle to “current” where as they are asking to be filled with crystals instead of the traditional corn. They want to have copper wrapped around the handle to balance the yin/yang energy and act as a conductor between the spiritual and physical realm. So I listen and follow. Therefore we will be creating this updated version.
Once sacred space has been opened and everyone has voiced their presence in the circle we will receive the materials for bringing these tools through. The first step is to make the holes and sew them together. We will be filling them with sand to take the desired shape and let them dry while taking our one hour lunch break. Once gathered again, I will open the Akashic Records for the group and channel what wants to come though for a couple of hours until the rattles are dry and ready to be assembled. This is when we will exchange the sand for crystals, decorate them and wrap the copper around the handle.
