How To Make A Rawhide Rattle with Jessie Seegerts

"The rattle(sesekwan) has a spirit of its own. The rattle mimics the swishing sound of the water in the womb; this, along with the heartbeat of mama, is the first song the little one hears. The rattle also calls the spirit to come forth in song and ceremony.” ~ Dr. Darlene P. Auger We are honored to have Jessie and her beautiful family members show us how to make a rattle: the connector to the land and spirituality.
