The Whole Music Experience

  Marrying astrology to sound healing isn't new. Ted Andrews in his book, Sacred Sounds connected the notes of the Western scale with the astrological signs on a Zodiac Wheel. What I'm proposing is using planetary tuning forks (frequencies as opposed to musical notes) to unleash tension in a Natal Chart. This is just a launching point to exploring the intersection between the Natal Chart and sound healing. Let's use my Natal Chart as an example. While you can't see the lines on this Solar Return chart, it contains a Mutable T-Cross with the Saturn and the Moon in Pisces in the 2nd House opposing Uranus/Pluto in Virgo in the 8th House and Mars in Gemini in the 5th House squares everything. As you can see I'm in my 50s now and this T-Cross has provided me suffering (power struggles) and pitting myself against authority figures.

Balancing Chakras and Doshas I first encountered Javier Ramon Brito when he joined my LinkedIn group Musical Healers.  Metaphysician/sound healer/musician/music producer/energy healer all rolled into one person, Javier represents a modern renaissance healer.  A visit to his website (which I listed at the end of this interview) reveals a wide array of recordings, articles, services, and shared wisdom.   When I first came up with the idea for the new Whole Music Experience feature Music-Sound-Healing, Javier came to mind.  I’m especially fascinated with his knowledge that correlates specific compositions or types of music to meridian and chakra systems in our bodies.  I had asked a question in Musical Healers (and not the first person to ask this question), “If Ch opin 's and Mozart’s music is so healing then why did the composer suffer from ill health?”  See Javier’s complete response to this question in this interview.  I also encourage y...

Sound Healing Jonathan and Andi Goldman Chakra Frequencies   Destiny Books Cosmic Hum Tara Trance   Healing Sounds The full title of the Goldman’s book, Chakra Frequencies (Tantra of Sound) might give the impression of tantric sex or that the book is just for partners.  However, as the Goldmans explain in the introduction of the book, in the Hindu and especially, the Buddhist tradition, Tantra refers to Unity Consciousness.  If you’re seeking a sexy book, this isn’t it, but for anyone just discovering sound healing or working with chakras, or even practicing sound healers will enjoy the chant practices featured here.  I have encountered the vowel sound and Bija chants in sound healing and voice workshops I took in the past, but I enjoyed the narrative style of the book and hearing about the chants used in practical everyday situations as well as, esoteric ones. And that’s just it.  Sound healing acts as a won...
