DRUM

CARD NAME: DRUM


REPRESENTS: RHYTHM / INTERNAL TIMING


APPLICATION:


If the Talking Drum has spoken to you, you are being asked to find your own internal timing. You may be pushing too hard or missing a beat. In any case, being out of sync calls for realignment with the body’s needs. Rhythm is a personal thing. To honor your own rhythm is to come back into harmony with the Self. From this point, personal comfort allows you to harmonize with other rhythms of life.


The Drum also speaks of allowing yourself to be supported by Mother Earth’s heartbeat. That is to say, your mind may be outdistancing what your body can handle and the body cannot pull needed energy from the Earth because it is trying to keep up with your thoughts. If this applies, you are missing a beat. Slow down and rediscover the heartbeat of your true Mother. Then the synchronicity of your movements will be effortless.


In all cases rhythm Is the key. Become aware of all rhythms and see how yours fit in. if it feels right, you become the music and the dance you are dancing becomes a celebration of life.


MEDITATION:

Drum that marks the heartbeat
Of our Mother Earth,
Constantly reminding us
Who gave us birth.
The rhythm of connection
Pulse of Flame and Fire,
The perfect reflection
Of our hearts desire.
