The Activation Drum

The Activation Drum was the 2nd to be painted in my 8-Painted-Drum-Fundraiser.

Early after I announced the project, I was kept up until 2 am receiving vision after vision of drums that wanted to come into being. This was one of them.

It was chosen by my friend Joanne Best of Earth & Sky Wellness, who recently moved to St. John’s from Twillingate and offers drumming as part of her empowerment circle offerings.

“I chose the drum  to  powerfully  launch and  activate my Sound Healing /Drum Circles and Women’s Empowernment circles in this new chapter of my life.

Before I saw the drum in person, I woke early to visions of violet energy rays streaming into my crown chakra, reminding me of the violet flame of St Germain. My mind’s eye was filled with an amethyst crystal, which represents enhanced intuition and knowing. I also saw myself standing outdoors with arms opened to the skies,  gathering  golden sun rays, being energized and activated for a great purpose. So when I saw the drum, there was a deep sense of recognition.

The Activation drum was present in January at a very special Full Moon Drum Circle at the Birch Centre for children and their parents to honour my daughter’s birthday.”  ~ Joanne Best

Every drum I painted had very different energy flowing through me during the co-creative process.

Powerful. That’s how I would qualify the energy transmissions that came through me for this one. I almost called it the Transmission Drum.

It felt like a Divine Call to open and say ‘Yes!’ to all that lies dormant, is germinating or sprouting within us that is meant to come into full bloom in this lifetime.

It’s as if rays of Celestial Light & Love were unlocking the codes inside us that help us live in Divine Alignement.

The same spiral pattern, a symbol of spiritual evolution (amongst many other things), is seen in the gold Central Sun ring, the purple & golden rays flowing down and in the many layers of colour on the person itself.

I believe we are spiritual beings having a human experience. The energy in The Activation Drum is here to remind us of our spiritual nature.

And the amethyst (for spiritual awareness, communication, inner peace and healing) embedded in mica (energy of love & compassion) is there to support the process.

“Drumming activates deep connection to one’s true nature, connection to the true nature of others, to the heartbeat of Mother Earth and to the Spirit of  all that is.” ~ Joanne Best

May The Activation Drum help those who get to play it shift their own energy and support the group’s transformational drumming journey.

If you’re in St. John’s,  your opportunity to play it is in the afternoon of March 5th at The Birch Centre. Follow Earth & Sky Welln for details.
