Forgotten In Time: The Ancient Solfeggio Frequencies


Forgotten In Time: The Ancient Solfeggio Frequencies

"These original sound frequencies were apparently used in Ancient Gregorian Chants, such as the great hymn to St. John the Baptist, along with others that church authorities say were lost centuries ago. The chants and their special tones were believed to impart tremendous spiritual blessings when sung in harmony during religious masses."

The Six Solfeggio Frequencies include:

UT – 396 Hz – Liberating Guilt and Fear
RE – 417 Hz – Undoing Situations and Facilitating Change
MI – 528 Hz – Transformation and Miracles (DNA Repair)
FA – 639 Hz – Connecting/Relationships
SOL – 741 Hz – Awakening Intuition
LA – 852 Hz – Returning to Spiritual Order

Whatever you believe about music, sound, frequency and it's effect on humans, Solfeggio Tones is a very important subject and one that I am just coming to, from a point of a trained musician and composer, sound producer and more. My original training dealt with different tuning methodologies including Werckmeister, Pythagorean and Quarter Comma Mean Tone not to mention the 12 note system developed by composers such as Schoenberg, Berg and Webern.


Why the Solfeggio Tones were lost to us or not taught is a mystery but I would say it is a known fact that the Catholic church as it was then, was quite instrumental in controlling what intervals a Monk or composer could use in their work. This would lead to various tuning systems being used and it was not until J.S. Bach and The Well Tempered Klavier, that a more 'standardised' system of tuning came into being.


By this time, I assume that the use of Solfeggio Tones in mainstream music, like the old 'harmonic series' did later on, became somewhat irrelevant since most composers, musicians and most importantly, instrument makers had adopted equal temperament as the standard for tuning.


But Solfeggio tones are not just about a tuning system. They are about their impact on the human body and more importantly, the human spirit. I have said it several times in other blog postings - Music is a force that cannot be underestimated and if the use and practice of Solfeggio tones can help some one in some way, then I am all for that and I encourage people to seek out music in their lives and let music enrich their spirit.

Keeping older drivers on the road

Keeping older drivers on the road

"But we all have to accept that as we get older our reactions slow down and this often results in people avoiding any potentially challenging driving conditions and losing confidence in their driving skills. The result is that people stop driving before they really need to.
"What we are doing is to look at ways of keeping people driving safely for longer, which in turn boosts independence and keeps us socially connected."

This is vitally important research and we must all do as much as we can to encourage the research and any implementations that are suitable. Getting older should not be a crime and driving is a very important part of our life and how we can stay a little more independent.

I need a charger for my old IBM Thinkpad and I found this to my surprise on Amazon. So, I will give this a go for the laptop is still useful for messing around with things and messing things up. If it does not work out, then I am not going to be so bothered about it.

Right now, the laptop is just sitting there and doing nothing. At least this way, if the adapter works, then it will be a result, if not, then someone else can have the pleasure of breaking it for spares.
