🌌 WHY DO WE USE PLANETARY GONGS RATHER THAN SYMPHONIC? 🌌
It comes down to focus and intention.
Planetary Gongs are tuned to specific frequencies associated with celestial bodies such as the Earth, Moon and Saturn. These frequencies are calculated using Hans Cousto’s Cosmic Octave formula, translating planetary orbital cycles into audible frequencies.
Because each Planetary Gong is centred around a specific pitch, its sound has a clearer, more focused fundamental tone.This gives us the ability to work intentionally with particular frequencies and the symbolic qualities traditionally associated with them, whether that’s a particular chakra, theme, energetic quality or therapeutic intention. ✨
A Symphonic Gong is different. Rather than being centred around one specific fundamental pitch, it produces a broad, open spectrum of rich and complex harmonics. Its sound can be wonderfully expansive, unpredictable and all, encompassing. 🌊
So, why do we choose Planetary Gongs?
Because we love the focus and intention they bring.
🌍 A specific celestial frequency
🎵 A defined tonal centre
✨ A focused sonic quality
🌙 A connection to the symbolism of the planets
💫 An intentional approach to sound and vibration
For our work, the focused nature of Planetary Gongs allows us to create a more intentional sonic journey. 🔔🌌
