Very much appreciate your enthusiastic words here Carol! It really helps to know people enjoy these articles.
Thanks as always for your many wonderful links which i was able to check out over the last few days. Did you know that birdsong not only aids the growth of plants but it is essential for them. So if the birds didn't sing in the Spring the plants would barely grow. We know this because tests have been done which prove that plants growing in a frequency free situation, in total silence, either don't grow at all or grow extremely badly. So when the teacher says "what do plants need for optimal growth?" we can extend our answer now! And likely completely baffle them ;)
I wrote about Sonic Bloom a few years ago in one of my electroculture posts and sometimes play music to my plants now, with this in mind. They say Vivaldi's Spring creates a similar frequency for them.
Was aware of the switch from 432Hz to 440Hz in 1939 but hadn't given it much thought till now. Makes total sense they would move it from a harmonious useful tone to disharmonious. Not all that surprising a six year war followed on the heels of this change. Humans must have felt very lost suddenly without that deeper connection.
Understanding the situation more clearly now, thanks to the help of the articles you sent, i feel as if i must re-tune our piano at once! Am very curious to spend some time in front of it creating music in tune with 432Hz. Bet it feels totally different!
As for tuning forks i have a bunch but don't use them much. I will double my efforts to have a play with them in the silence of the mornings!
Thank you Carol for drawing my attention back to the tuning forks and inspiring all these wonderful thoughts π
In the news today (but this is old news for you and @owasco):
"Researchers have uncovered a surprising and concerning phenomenon affecting honey bee populations. Studies reveal that when hives are exposed to the electromagnetic fields of 5G cell phone towers, bees may abandon their colonies entirely. This behavior raises questions about how modern technology impacts essential pollinators and the ecosystems that rely on them.
"Honey bees play a crucial role in pollinating crops and wild plants, supporting global food production and biodiversity. When colonies are disrupted, it can have cascading effects on agriculture and natural habitats. The new findings suggest that electromagnetic radiation from 5G towers may interfere with bees' navigation systems or communication patterns, making it difficult for them to return to their hives."
Carol!!!
I live half a mile from one of these towers, and folks here are having a difficult time keeping their bees.
Aren't these cones gorgeous? I hope to get one. Just have to get off my duff and order it.
I have been incredibly busy with homeopathy, both learning more and more, and putting it into practice on anyone who will let me. My most recent person was constipated for three solid weeks after surgery to remove her spleen; she had been in a very bad car/bike accident, and constipation was her main concern at the three week mark - it must have been very painful if that was her main concern. Two doses, and the next morning her BM's were back to normal! Sometimes homeopathy is astounding!
Call me sometime!
YES, Sam's cones are gorgeous!! Sam, everything you and your offspring create is beautiful!
I'd love to hear more about what (in "two doses") cured your patient.
My husband endured a biopsy today, to rule out prostate cancer, and the procedure was so much worse than anyone warned. If it was not really necessary, I'm going to launch a campaign of protest against awful medical procedures....
Re-tuning the piano--I'd love to hear what you find if you tune it to the other frequency (432 Hz).
I'd love to see you tuning the piano! My husband gave up on the piano tuners in town and bought a kit to do his own tuning. Now I'll have to see what it takes to tune to 432 vs the now-standard 440 Hz.
We love seeing all your creations and all the great photos. Thank YOU for sharing all that you do!
