Evening Fire Celebration, Drumming & Journeying Fri 27th Mar 6.30-9.30pm
An evening celebration where we will quietly and slowly wander out onto the land, with the evening air and energy, where we will gather around the fire pit, to drum in the returning light, the returning life. To feel the energy of the Spring Equinox balance and sparks of awakening.
We’ll have marshmallows on the fire, drum with our intentions and seeds for the year ahead, before we wander back inside, to enjoy a drum journey or two - where we will journey with the season, our Spirit guides, or simply just rest and surrender to the rhythm of the drum.
Max 5 spaces, drums available to borrow.
Private & cherished space and land. Nr Nesscliffe, Shrewsbury exchange £25. Bookings by email whisperscharlie27@gmail.com
Journeying with Earth & Rook energies Sun 26th April 11am - 2pm exchabge £25
We will gather in circle together to drum and journey with, and on a very special energy centre - a natural underwater spring here on the land. This energy holds such magic. She is healing, she speaks of harmony, balance and regeneration. Come and feel this magic, drum in circle and feel her tickle your being.
We will also be near to a rookery too, which holds such magic and wisdom. Rooks are immensely special birds - communal, noisy, shape shifting and beautiful. Let them take your imagination on a journey. Their rookery will be in full swing at the time if this event, so expect noise, a fullness, a busyness of these characterful birds. See how they speak to you, how they make you feel, what you notice about them. We will not be near enough to disturb them in anyway, but to observe, to be in conversation with and to feel their energy.
Bring your drum or borrow one of mine. 5 spaces max. Held at The Snug and land adjacent to, Nr Nesscliffe, Shrewsbury.

A 4 part Drum series on a Thursday 7-9.30pm. April 16th & 30th and May 21st th & 28th
For our first two weeks in April we will be working with Drum’s spirit, learning about how drum holds stories of the creature from which the hide belongs, elements, weather, the paths travelled on hoof and in herd weave a special magic through drum. The tree spirit of the tree whom your hoop belongs to, their stories of root and branch, bird and badger. We’ll be connecting deeply with the character, unique magic and voice of drum. Through journeying, learning how to drum a journey for yourself, your own drumming rhythm for your healing and well being, the healing power of drum how to clear space with your drum. For our second week in April we will explore how it feels to drum in circle around the fire pit out on the land -weather permitting.
For our two weeks in May we will be learning how you drum journey, in your own, special and unique way. How you dance into your inner landscape, your imaginal realms. We’ll be exploring how we use the power of setting intentions for drum journeys, meeting your Power Animal and/or Animal allies and helpers. We’ll be exploring how you journey, whether you are a sensory traveller, intuitive, visual, or absolutely anything else! We’ll then look at how you transcribe your journey, how you interpret, and whether you like to journal, sketch, write poetry or dream on your experiences. There is no wrong way, we will be going slow and being curious.
This is for those who are new or relatively new to the drum and journeying, or those curious for a deeper connection to both.
