I've been wondering about music uses for the Aquarius Age. This new age represents energy, frequency, and let's add, intent.

Perhaps having Neptune transiting in my second astrological house led to a dissolution of my work with music consciousness.

Many of us were told as children to stop daydreaming. I only pretended to stop. While some people find daydreaming a form of laziness or believe that people who daydream will never amount to anything, daydreaming is a form of creativity. It's how we incubate projects or even solve personal problems.

Often when we think of mantras, our minds turn to religious chants such as kirtans. We intentionally use mantras with our meditation practice or perhaps, when we feel frightened or alone losing our connection to the Divine, we chant mantras. However, this article is not about the warm fuzzy feelings we experience from sacred words and phrases.

When I was 18 years old, I returned to my parent's house for college spring break and I shuffled through my mother's classical records. I found a recording of Claude Debussy's Prelude to the Afternoon of the Faun. The title intrigued me so I listened to the composition. I immediately fell into a trance.
Musical trances weren't new to me at that Moon Childhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/08701915383184412301noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5561062390123165138.post-30467824276702905682017-06-07T22:03:00.000-04:002017-06-07T22:03:45.368-04:00The Practice--Rhythmic Entrainment (Realigning the Cells in Your Body)
Try this experiment. Next time you hear music coming from a passing car while you're out walking, pay attention to your body's reaction. Pay attention to how your body rearranges itself to match the rhythm and tempo of the song coming from the passing car.

In our sped up world, we don't often take the time to deeply listen to music. I remember taking a music appreciation class at college in 1982 where the professor played a recording of Bach's Fugue in G minor every day for the entire quarter. We learned every nuance of that fugue, even if I didn't seriously listen to Bach' s music several decades later.
So, for this practice get out your Moon Childhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/08701915383184412301noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5561062390123165138.post-12045835811863133852017-04-23T13:15:00.000-04:002017-05-01T22:11:06.968-04:00Whole Music--Junk Music Versus Whole Music

Here is an excerpt from Chapter 6 of Whole Music (Soul Food for the Mind Body Spirit). I wrote this chapter based on my fascination with interspecies music. My fascination began when I read one of Masaru Emoto's water crystal books in 2006. If water has consciousness and registered vibrations with words and music, what else was possible?

I have a fascination with ancient musicians. I did not grow up with this fascination as it came later in life during my musical quest. When I performed and recorded my songs I wasn't thinking about my musical forebears, at least not past the 1960s. However, once I began exploring metaphysics and testing various music on my body and emotions I began to wonder where it all started.

I still feel disappointed that no book publishers are publishing self-help books on music. They're no longer publishing books that tout music awareness either.
So I started a Go Fund Me campaign (the link is at the bottom) to continue my music research. And create a new avenue of getting this music consciousness information out to the world during a crucial shift on the planet.

I began my journey into the world of music as a young child. And my passion for music waxed and waned over the decades. When it was ebbing, I began a new journey into music consciousness. And one of the concepts that struck me early on was a comparison between a food diet and a music diet.

On the day of the Pisces Lunar Eclipse, I had a sudden urge to listen to recordings of bird songs. Although I live in Bellingham, a city known for its natural surroundings, I live in a residential neighborhood with little nature and a lot of concrete. So until I can take a walk in one of the parks, listening to nightingale songs suffices.
