Ancestor Drum Natural - custom made of natural raw hide & a wood frame. The drum is made of thin & fine parchment for particularly sensitive vibration. The smooth raw hide is especially responsive & is very neatly prepared from the best area of the back line. This drum is not painted or dyed - the warm earthy colors & vivid patterns of this rawhide are natural. They remind us of the raw genuine beauty of nature & her expressions, of organic shape of bark or waves of the sea. I hope they will bring lots of joy & inspiration. GOAT TOTEM Goats like Buffalos are a symbol of abundance & wealth. They are wise, playful & generous. Goat symbolism is letting you know that it may be time to begin new climbs & endeavors & that you have to trust your ability. Having faith in yourself & your skills is a potent tool that is available to you at all times. The Goat, as a Spirit Animal teaches you to maintain your balance. Climbing a narrow mountain ledge of challenges or walking a wooded path goats have calm determination. PLEASE KNOW that this drum is made after order. Keep in mind that each drum looks different as each natural raw hide looks unique. DRUM STICK The drum is played with a drum stick. Please keep in mind that the stick does NOT come with the drum. You can order a stick to go with your drum. - ABOUT The drum has clear, humming, far reaching overtones that will accompany you into deep dreaming, mediation, prayers or ritual.
