The Powerful Solfeggio Frequencies: Why These Ancient Tones Were 'Lost'

The tones of the Ancient Solfeggio Scale had been given to the church many
years ago for a very spiritual purpose. People came to Mass which, at the time,
was done in Latin. When people sang these musical tones (usually in chants), it
was very powerful - they cut through all of the limited thought forms into the
deeper levels of the subconscious, accessing insights beyond belief systems. It
seems that simply because the frequencies of the tones within the scale
facilitated vibrational healing states and higher awareness in the masses who
sang them, the Church eventually suppressed the use of the special frequencies.
In addition, the Church originally commissioned over 150 chants (Gregorian) that
utilized the tones. However, in approximately 1050 A.D. the Church purged or
"lost" the chants, most likely not intending to, but nonetheless denying the
masses the opportunity for their own vibrational healing through sacred sound.
Consequently, the stage was set for vibrational disharmony in people's lives via
sound frequency.

The Powerful Solfeggio Frequencies: Why These Ancient Tones Were 'Lost'

"You're only as sick as your secrets," I remember a good friend in early
recovery telling me. Well, I now know this goes for the whole human race. I
recently found out about one big centuries-old secret that isn't secret any
longer thanks to Dr. Joseph Puleo whose mystical story is captured in a book
called The Healing Codes of Biological Apocalypse by Dr. Leonard Horowitz.

In my quest as a sound therapist, I have always been drawn to tuning forks. In
the early days of my fledgling practice, I experienced many but didn't actually
purchase any to add to my practice. Then, in 2001 by chance (right!), I had the
privilege to experience some specialized tuning forks calibrated to the
frequencies of the Ancient Solfeggio Scale. You know how you just KNOW when
something is right for you? You resonate with it. Why these tones resonated with
me became very clear when I learned about the secret.

So what is it about this secret that Dr. Puleo uncovered? As I understand it
through my studies with David Hulse, D.D. (originator of SomaEnergeticsT) the
tones of the Ancient Solfeggio Scale had been given to the church many years ago
for a very spiritual purpose. People came to Mass which, at the time, was done
in Latin. When people sang these musical tones (usually in chants), it was very
powerful - they cut through all of the limited thought forms into the deeper
levels of the subconscious, accessing insights beyond belief systems. It seems
that simply because the frequencies of the tones within the scale facilitated
vibrational healing states and higher awareness in the masses who sang them, the
Church eventually suppressed the use of the special frequencies. In addition,
the Church originally commissioned over 150 chants (Gregorian) that utilized the
tones. However, in approximately 1050 A.D. the Church purged or "lost" the
chants, most likely not intending to, but nonetheless denying the masses the
opportunity for their own vibrational healing through sacred sound.
Consequently, the stage was set for vibrational disharmony in people's lives via
sound frequency.

At the same time, instruments which used to play music in these sacred tones
were tuned using a method called "Just Intonation". Beginning in the 16th
century, however, the tuning method began evolving into what is currently used
today in all music of the Western world - the "12-Tone Equal Temperament
Method." Why is this important for us to know? Surprisingly, altering the tuning
method changed the frequency of musical tones; and different tonal frequencies
affect the energy systems of our body, our health and our well-being in much the
same way that high-voltage transmitters, microwave ovens and televisions do.

Naturally, the alteration of these frequencies weakened the spiritual impact
of the Church's hymns. According to Professor Willi Apel (as reported in Healing
Codes for the Biological Apocalypse, "Because the music held mathematical
resonance, frequencies capable of spiritually inspiring mankind to be more
'God-like', the changes affected alterations in conceptual thought as well,
further distancing humanity from God."

In the book The Just Intonation Primer, the author David B. Doty shows that if
the quality of compositions that are keyed to the ancient "Just Intonation"
method could be described, such terms as "clarity", "purity", "smoothness", and
"stability" come readily to mind. He further observed that music composed to fit
the "12-Tone Equal Temperament" method (the tuning method utilized for the last
250 years) sounds "rough", "restless" or "muddy" in comparison. Because there
are limited musical combinations available to composers with the current method,
it essentially places music "in a box of limitation". Consequently, since all
music in our contemporary world (from commercials to modern hymns and
symphonies) has been composed to utilize the "12-Tone Equal Temperament" method,
they all have vibrational limits. As a result, the limited vibrational frequency
of the tones of modern music can create situations such as "boxed in thinking",
stuffed and suppressed emotions and fear-based "lack" consciousness - all of
which tend to manifest into physical symptoms of "dis-ease". Our modern music
may be "music to your ears", but it was originally intended to be music for the
soul, or the "secret ear.", according to Dr. Hulse.

So now I understand my attraction to the tuning forks calibrated to these once
"lost" frequencies. The tones naturally stimulate the vibration of expanded
creativity, easier problem solving and holistic health. The potential exists for
us to change our wellbeing and that of our world by the reintroduction of these
ancient tones and tuning method. (Currently, an example of this is already
showing up in present-day application via the 528 hz frequency - MI in the
Solfeggio Scale - which is being utilized by researchers to repair genetic DNA
in the laboratory.) How exciting is that?!

The secret is out - thank goodness nothing stays hidden from the human spirit
forever. It is my hope that our collective vibration will be raised
significantly simply by being informed of the "lost" Ancient Solfeggio
frequencies and bringing them back into our bodies whether by singing, chanting,
toning - or tuning forks.
