Thank you Guillermo! I didn't realize the buffalo rattle could be used on my buffalo drum. I love it even more! Blessings, Dustin

Thank you for teaching me. I use rattles in healing work, I was really drawn to the sound of the peyote rattle and the tin can rattle. When you played them I started traveling. Much love ❤️ 🙏

Thank you, Guillermo, for this very helpful and wise information. I received my Moon Drum today, and it looks and sounds AMAZING! My wife and I will be having a welcoming ceremony for it ASAP. I also recently ordered a rattle from you, to complete the trinity. This video has helped me in learning various ways to incorporate it into my rituals and practice. As for the average person making these beautiful creations that you make and sell, speaking for myself, I have various talents and skills; creating these masterpieces that you lovingly craft is not one of them. I have limited eyesight, and though I can be crafty (I enjoy pyrography, for example), at 59, my skill set is nowhere near yours to produce these wonderful and sacred objects. Thank you for all that you are and do, and for your contributing towards bringing greater understanding of there sacred instruments to the general public. 🙏🙏🙏
