Drums & rattles, crystals, blades, divination tools (bones, cards, dowsing rods, etc.) and many other items are used in countless spiritual practices to connect with our ancestors, our guides and ourselves. These sacred items are used as keys to open the doorway between the spiritual and physical. The tools become a part of our work and teachings whether they have been purchased, gifted or handmade. Our personal essence, intentions and willingness to become a hollow bone extends further into our work when we allow the tools themselves to work on us elevating our practices and ability to connect. In this class we will discuss the relationships we build with our tools, how we care for these items as well as honor them.
