Drumming takes me to My Bliss and My Bliss is Drumming Magic.
When I attended my first Pheonix Phyre several years ago I received multiple blessings. One was the experience of the Drum. The second was a great friend. Kimberli White Otter.
I attended my first Phoenix Phyre on my own. I knew no one. I arrived on a Thursday evening and after setting myself up and wondering about and attending the protection/blessing of the land ceremony I was "called" by the drums. I went and I danced. When too tired to dance, the only place that felt right for me to be was in the West with the drums. The next evening I was tired and had resolved to not dance but to save myself for the next night. And then there were the drums. They called. There was no sleeping, I had to go. During the day I had purchased a lovely rattle made by Eric Dreaming Trout. Now when I was in the West with the Drums I had my rattle as my rhythm instrument. Needless to say on Saturday night when this mass of amazing drummers were drumming through the rain and Little John and I held a tarp over "Charlie" while this lovely creature of a man held the heart beat and more for us all I was lost in that bliss totally and felt the drums and their magic. I remember standing there totally extatic wanting to pinch myself, hardly believing what I was doing or where I was - but my hands were full! I was hooked, I simply had to be able to do this myself.
I went home after a really amazing time with some special friends and great memories and found a drumming teacher. I learned to drum, not bad for a beginner and was back at Autum Meet and was a drummer myself and definitely not the worst drummer in the circle :-).
So now, we get to the drumming magick. There are many times I dont take the time to drum for myself. But goodness, get me in a sacred circle or a not so sacred circle with folks that love to drum with me, and the magic happens. I am exhausted and renewed. I am filled with rhytym, community, connection, power and I am living my Bliss. It is something that truly is in the moment and takes me to the God/dess within. I feel it now with a sweet smile as I close my eyes and feel it and type about it. Words simply dont do it justice.
It was with the Phoenix Phamily that I discovered my drumming magick and it has become a significant part of my life. I even found my Mate while drumming peace. I am a well blessed woman.
So again, thanks for two very special things Phoenix Phamily. KWO and my Rhytym. I am blessed to have discovered them both with you.
Many Blessings -
Amber
