The Downy Woodpecker: Sacred Drummer

Downy Woodpecker: Sacred Drummer  $300.00

Downy Woodpecker detail

Woodpecker is nature's sacred drummer.  They drum to the heartbeat of mother earth and symbolize the ability to move between dimensions.   People who share Woodpecker energy use their heads to peck through the hidden layers to uncover the deeper self.  They are opportunistic beings, seeing something valuable in what others see as worthless. When Woodpecker's drumbeat is heard, it may signal that it is time to go inward, reach down to our roots and use the intellect to gain insight into a problem.  The patch of red on the Downy Woodpecker could be thought of as a symbol for the root chakra, the sacred earth, and represents pure, primal energy.  The acrobatic nature of the Downy also symbolizes the creative ability to search out new paths to get to and understand the truth.
