Session One: The Nature of Sound and Vibration Sound and Vibration Contemporary Sound Healers

A Sampling of Sound Healers
Sound healers, as a profession, really did not get a start until the later 20th century when, what was previously the domain of shamans, secret mystery schools, family lineage, and alternative healers, opened up, in my opinion, as Universal energy elevated vibrations of the planet and all its citizens. The transition of astrological epochs from the Piscean to the Aquarian Age has opened up the door to a significant shift of how things are. The linear patriarchal model of life based on analysis, control, hierarchy, sequence, intellectuality, and serious lack of emotion, has evolved, since 1987’s Harmonic Convergence especially, into an opening to a new vibration overseen by feminine energy and its heart based flow that embraces rather than rejects. In the spirit of cooperation and compassion and unification enclaves and boundaries of thought and action are falling to reveal connection. This higher vibrational living is only capable of sweeping the planet because of a benevolent Universe coupled with a host of Light Workers who have done their due diligence and worked to reclaim their true inner vibration.


Thus, for humankind, this is an exciting age of transition that embraces the spiritual and the Earthly and all in between to birth a synthesis of the best of the past. New information is rapidly downloading into individuals open enough and at a clear vibration. New modalities, some based on ancient “forgotten” techniques, and some brought forth as innovation, are showing up as quickly as the receivers allow. Enough people have raised their personal vibration through inner work and paradigm shifts to be able to assimilate this new frequency. This is significant because, before the late 1980’s, few had the ability to hold the emerging vibrations. (Picture Raiders of the Lost Ark when the Ark of the Covenant was opened and all those who watched were disintegrated...this is likely what would have occurred on a mass scale if we tried this too soon. But then it did not even enter most minds that it was available. My first experiences with higher vibration were under the watchful eye of a direct descendant of the last Egyptian pharaoh in a Huna training class in 1988. Even then, information was doled out in small doses only after extensive meditative preparation and ritual openings.)


Suffice it to say that this is a remarkable time. That you are even reading this is a testament that you have raised vibration enough to be open and drawn to the new methods of being in this dimension. And, I assure you, I will hold nothing back in sharing new perspectives to shake and shift and further clarify the unfolding nature of things. For you to be an effective Sound Alchemist, you have to be open and versed in the vibrational makeup of things. And those perspectives are being revealed on a daily basis, sometimes just before I type on the keyboard. Glorious times, indeed.


Various individuals, many now published authors, have followed their inner calling and embarked on journeys of learning and working with vibration and sound. What follows is a sampling of the more visible ones and a bit of what they have contributed to the field.
