Relax and breath in the intentions of the full moon that you wish to harness within yourself and the ones you love. Embrace the flow of energy of the ancient Igbo aero phone drumming of the Udu. These drums can be found in almost all homes in the Igbo populated regions. When not being played they may be found being used as containers for water, store grain, or even being homes to bee colonies. Within the last century udu have also been included in church music, again pointing toward the sacred perspective of the drums in the area.
The Igbo people have a traditional concept that the sounds produced from the udu are the sounds of their ancestors. With ancestor worship a important aspect of their culture, this again provides evidence of the sacred placement of the udu for the Igbo people. Making the association of udus sounds with ancestors is a integral perspective for the Igbo people, and has kept this wonderful instrument sacred throughout history and into the present.
