A heartfelt thank you to all who attended the event in Carbondale last night, such a great group of beautiful people, nice to meet everyone and see some friends I had not seen in a long time. As I walked outside I was struck by the spectacle of the Moon and Venus side by side, shining in the twilight soon to conjunct together. Facilitating sound healing and working with frequencies that are attuned to the surrounding planets really strengthens our connection to them.

Gongs are said to be some of the first instruments played by humans and originated in the far east. The newest generation of gongs created by Paiste and other master crafters have undertones and overtones that are attuned to the music of the spheres. The magic and power of planetary gongs is a transcendental experience that everyone deserves to experience. Each gong is tuned to the specific frequency of the planet that it represents. The Paiste company started creating these special healing instruments in the 1980’s and now the energies of our planetary system are just a mallet strike away. The astrological, mythological and archetypal ways the gongs sound resonates with the micro and macrocosmic structure of the galaxy that we are one with. Each person will have a completely different experience depending on what they need to experience. The effect on physical, mental, and spiritual layers of the individuals is profound and far reaching. The immersion, deep state of relaxation and peace that is attained is life changing. The experience is beyond words and connects you to a realm of beauty that will become a part of you.
THE GONG SPIRIT SONG
“The Gong is the spirit song. It is the primal whisper of the soul. It’s sounds is the echo of the Original Word that created the world, the sound within all sounds. Listen with outer and inner ears. Feel its pulsations and let the millions of vibrations dance and flow through your senses. You will become fearless, relaxed and awakened. The ancients sought this experience on the tops of mountains and at the sacred places. The voice of God would thunder in, spectacular strokes of lightning. The clap of thunder – Bang! Shatter! Roll! Echo! – stopped all thought, stripped away pretense, shook loose the deepest fears, and rejuvenated the nervous system. It created strength, peace and healing. The Gong is that sound. It is the flash of inner light. The mallet is the will of the infinite, the gong, the creation, and the sound is the spirit song, the heartbeat of the soul.”
