Birch Bark (Hand Drum Size)

'Glaisium cnis, most silvery of the skin, that is the birch of the Ogham from birch of the forest, for hence birch, b, was put for it. '

-The Ogham Tract from the Auraicept na N-Éces


One day whilst passing ‘the Slade’ in my local area, I noticed two beautiful white birch trees stretching into the sky, a Goddess figure visible in each of the their trunks, their arms lifted. These birch trees were creating a gateway, a portal and so I journeyed to the Goddess. This beautiful synchronicity was the birthing of ‘Berkana Raido Rattles’.

Intent is what counts here.

"Sound and matter are the mother and father of Ogham." And so, this rattle is a perfect tool for calling in and asking the intention to take form. This piece is ideal for ritual, cleansing space , calling in the ancestors or as a tool for sound and healing work.

When you journey with this sacred rattle you are one with the birch Goddess 'beith', you are safe in her hands & she will hear your intent & greatest wishes.

All wood is hand sourced locally when out walking with my dogs. I used silver leaf bio degradable paper, in the Japanese Kintsugi style, bringing the alchemy of sound healing into ones energetic aura through the rattle when journeying.

All rattles made lovingly at home under ceremonious conditions. No trees were harmed. Vegan friendly. Plain but can be customised.
