Planetary Harmonics

The astrophysical parameters of a planet are, in part, that which create its astrological characteristic (psychophysiological resonance). An example chart of Earth's Harmonic Spectrum is presented below. Earth's astrophysical parameters are shown translated to their corresponding alpha brain wave frequencies, audio frequencies, and corresponding light (color) wavelengths.

The fundamental frequencies of a planet are derived from the planet's astrophysical parameters such as diameter, circumference, rotational velocity, orbital period, perihelion/aphelion distances, orbital velocity, etc. These frequencies generally have very long wavelengths, thus they lie in the very low frequency (ELF) and ultra-low frequency (ULF) range. Planetary harmonics govern natural long-term biological growth patterns, monthly and yearly biological processes, and daily brain and psychophysiological function.

Like audible sound, brainwaves are measured in frequency, were as light is measured by its wavelength. The mid-audio octave is six octaves up from the alpha brain wave octave, and, as presented above, the visible octave of light (color) is 40 octaves up from the mid-audio octave.

When we think of a color of light, generally we are visualizing a narrow band of many frequencies (wavelengths) that comprise a single color or shade of color. In the chart shown above, the center frequency (wavelength) of each of the basic colors is shown, as well as their corresponding audio and brain wave frequencies. Also shown is the conventional musical scale, which reveals where each note lies with respect to the colors in the light spectrum.

The following chart shows the fundamental Earth harmonics in light, sound, and brain wave frequencies. All of these frequencies (and many more) create Earth's unique "Harmonic Signature."

"Spacial" astronomical parameters, such as the distance of a planet from the Sun or Earth, its diameter and circumference, to name a few, have harmonic resonances just like "time-related" parameters, like the orbital period of planet (its year); or its rotational period (its day). All of these parameters create a planet's complex "harmonic signature." That is why it makes little sense to say a planet resonates with one specific frequency. The harmonic signatures of all of the planets in our solar system, as well as a myriad of ever-changing resonances occurring between the planets, as well as those created by their ever-changing cycles with each other, produce our Solar System's Grand Evolutionary Symphony in which all life on Earth evolves. This is the "harmonic environment" in which every biological rhythm breathes and evolves.

The Schumann Resonances

The 7.83 Hz. Schumann Resonance figure that many people hear about is a number made popular by researcher Robert Beck whose work on ELF signals, Earth resonances, and their affect on brain wave frequencies was presented at a U.S. Psychotronic conference and published in late 1970s. He reported that 7.83 Hz is a brainwave frequency often detected when psychics are in their intuiting mode. Others following his work proclaimed the Schumann Resonance to be 7.83 Hz., although this has led to some confusion as to the true nature of the Schumann Resonances (yes plural), and to the assumption that Earth herself resonates at this one frequency, which it does not.

In actuality, there are several frequencies between 7 and 50 Hertz that compose the Schumann Resonances. These frequencies start at 7.8 Hz and progress by approximately 5.9 Hz. (7.8, 13.7, 19.6, 25.5, 31.4, 37.3, and 43.2 Hz.). These resonances are NOT composed of fixed or specific frequencies any more than the collective mood of human surface consciousness is fixed. Changes occurring in these frequencies are quite normal and do not indicate anything out of the ordinary. All of these frequencies fluctuate around their nominal values. For example, the fundamental Schumann frequency fluctuates between 7.0 Hz. to 8.5 Hz. These frequencies vary from geological location to location, and they can even have naturally occurring interruptions.

These frequencies were reported by Schumann in 1952, he reporting the lowest in the group to be about 10 Hz. They were later measured by the National Bureau of Standards at Boulder Colorado in the 1960s where the 7.8 Hz nominal figure was confirmed along with the 5.9 Hz progressing overtones.

Nikola Tesla also measured and reported these frequencies and their power levels, predating the work of Schumann by 50 years. Tesla, however, reported the first four resonances only. They included the 7.8 Hz fundamental, a 14.1 Hz second harmonic, a 20.0 Hz third harmonic, and a 25.0 Hz fourth harmonic—all very close to the measurements made later. Source: "The Transmission of Electrical Energy Without Wires As A Means Of Furthering World Peace. Published in Electrical World and Engineer, January 7, 1905."

The Schumann Resonances are the result of cosmic energy build-up within the cavity that exists between Earth's highly conductive surface and the conducting layer in the upper atmosphere called the ionosphere.* This creates a world-wide lightning display of broadband electromagnetic impulses that fill this cavity and that act as the stimulus for the cavity to resonate. (This is another example of spatially created harmonic resonances.)

* A part of Earth's upper atmosphere is ionized plasma caused by the sun's ultraviolet radiation. 
This layer, the ionosphere, couples Earth's outer magnetosphere with Earth's inner neutral atmosphere.

The Schumann Resonances fluctuate around their nominal values because of slight variations in the size of the ionosphere and the crust of the Earth, both of which breathe due to variations in Earth's magnetic field, solar influences and other deepspace ionizing effects, and the lunar cycles.

The Schumann Resonances, thus, are also a part of the many frequencies that create Earth's "Harmonic Signature."

The 7.8 Hz. Schumann fundamental frequency is quite close to Earth's 7.5 Hz. circumference harmonic (calculated using the speed of light at Earth's surface). It is also close to 8 Hz., an ideal natural number from a mathematical perspective (see Pythagorean Scale above). Because of all of these factors, the 7.83 Hz. frequency, the 7.8 Schumann Resonance or an 8 Hz. frequency, had been proclaimed by some to be an ideal frequency to attune to, and that to electronically generate a frequency in this range may even protect us from unwanted harmful frequencies—a point upon which I, any many others, tend to differ and which I elucidate upon in the "Light and Sound for Healing" section below.

The fundamental 7.83 Schumann frequency is however our fundamental alpha brainwave frequency, and the cerebrospinal fluid (nearly 100% water) in the ventricular cavities in the brain resonates with and amplifies this signal. This is why it is essential to live in ways that are attuned to Earth, free from entraining man-made electromagnetic pollution.

To support our greatest well being, and to make possible our evolution and spiritual awakening, we must allow ourselves (and our brainwave patterns) to breath in concert with mother Earth and with her natural cycles moment-to-moment. The Earth is a spherical receiver of cosmic energy (evolutionary intelligence) which directs our biological process and spiritual evolutionary unfoldment. The Earth re-radiates the cosmic information it receives from its core outward in complex long-wave signals. We receive these signals via our spinal columns and cranial structures (a vertical antenna system). The cranial cavity, the capstone to this antenna captures this information and re-focuses it to the pineal gland, a neuro-endocrine transducer in the center of the brain, where it is then transmitted (via the hypothalamus) as signals that direct the pituitary gland, the master control center of the brain. These signals are further distributed via the rest of the neurological system.

People living in dense man-made EMF frequencies (powergrids, cell phones, cell-phone microwave towers, TVs, etc.), especially common to big cities, will have extreme difficulty being receptive to natural solar and other planetary resonances and their cycles that are responsible for our conscious evolution and optimal health. This is due to quantum-biochemical fact that intercellular and genetic communication occurs via light (electrons and photons), which is easily disrupted and distorted by external man-made EMF fields. There are also additional factors, such as the quality and purity of intercellular water, that make our quantum biochemical processes possible. Man-made electromagnetic radiation can cause everything from brain cell DNA damage to sever alterations in health, mood, emotional stability and behavior.

Signals in nature breath and meander. Only man-made signals are well-defined sign-wave frequencies. It is possible to entrain the brain with artificially generated signals in a matter of seconds, and at a cost. We are not intended to function at one specific frequency. Entraining ourselves with artificially generated frequencies for extended periods, whether 8 Hz or by the 50 and 60 Hz power fields and radio frequency polution we live in, can be debilitating and is dangerous. It can create degeneration, disease, and mental, emotional, and physical disharmony and imbalance. Most importantly, it can keep us from receiving and integrating the cosmic intelligence provided by mother Earth in a harmonious way. That intelligence is responsible for our evolutionary awakening. It is more important now than ever to be attuned to Earth and the natural cycles of nature—our entire astronomical harmonic environment—for our optimal health, our mental, emotional and physical stability, and our spiritual awakening.

Planetary Harmonic Comparisons

Although there are many other parameters creating each planet's "harmonic signature," the following chart is a comparison of the four basic parameters of each of the primary planets: rotation and sidereal period (time), and circumference and diameter (space). Corresponding brain wave frequencies, middle octave audio frequencies, and light wavelengths are shown for each planetary parameter.

Notice the close resonance between Jupiter's circumference harmonic and Pluto's circumference harmonic, and between Jupiter's diameter harmonic and Pluto's diameter harmonic. Astrologically, Jupiter and Pluto work well together, this being one indicator of why this is so. The same holds true for Pluto and Mercury. Many interesting correspondences can be found when exploring planetary harmonics. Another example is the close resonance between Mercury's rotation harmonic, and Neptune's sidereal period harmonic. An in-depth presentation of this research and work which I began in the mid-1980s, I may publish in the future.

Schumann's Resonances and Human Psychobiology

(extended version)

by Richard Alan Miller and Iona Miller
Organization for the Advancement of Knowledge (O.A.K.), Grants Pass, Or., 2003

The rhythm of life has evolved at an even tempo for epochs.  We live in a matrix of oscillating fields; the tiniest fluctuations in one interlocked field carry over perturbation into others.  Many times per second, pulses travel completely around the world between our planet's surface and the ionosphere sending coordinating signals to all organisms.  These signals couple us to the global electrostatic field.  Named for their discoverer, these Schumann Resonances (SR) provide the orchestrating pulse for life on our planet.

We all march to the cadence of this cosmic drummer -- our planetary heartbeat, which sets the tempo for health and well-being.  Damaging this planetary pacemaker could spell doom for life as we know it.  In the name of progress and defense, this pacemaker is now threatened, while vast amounts of public money are spent on this exploitation. Even more tax funds are allocated to implement the ill-conceived "Star Wars" missile defense, and the energy beam Project HAARP.

“What is clear is that part of the money voted to Bush’s Star Wars plan will be used for research into space-based lasers,” the Independent reported. “These, we are told, will be used to shoot down the missiles fired in anger by ‘rogue states.’ But they will, inevitably, evolve into weapons aimed at America’s enemies from space. U.S. Space Command doesn’t even bother to hide this fact. The most chilling illustration in Vision 2020 is of such a space-based laser firing a beam of energy at the earth.”

"What the Russians are worried about (as they’re trying to explain in badly translated prose from Moscow’s Interfax News Agency) are U.S. plans to begin large-scale scientific experiments using the Alaska-based HAARP in 2003. Ninety Russian deputies signed the appeal against the HAARP program, charging that the experiments “would create weapons capable of breaking radio communication lines and equipment installed on spaceships and rockets, provoke serious accidents in electricity networks and in oil and gas pipelines and have a negative impact on the mental health of people populating entire regions.” (Fitrakis, 2002)

The ionosphere shields us from deadly radiation from the sun and deep space.  Holes are now being routinely punched in this insulating blanket by high-frequency radio waves, and may accidentally tear open the fragile cocoon of human and planetary evolution.  Dire consequences could be as devastating as the failure of an individual's pacemaker.  First, we will give an overview, then define and describe some terms used here in greater detail deeper in the article.

This environmental rhythm -- the fundamental driving system for all life on our small blue planet -- is jeopardized by human manipulations of the ionosphere, such as project HAARP.  It is dangerous to fool with Mother Nature as the results of ozone depletion and other ecological calamities have shown.  It might be easy to see that such survival risks don't balance alleged benefits, but targeted research on potential problem areas has been virtually non-existent.

Lewis B. Hainsworth was among the first to suggest that human health is linked with geophysical parameters by way of the naturally occurring Schumann ELF (extremely low frequencies).  His hypothesis identified naturally occurring features which determine the frequency spectrum of human brain-wave rhythms.  He concluded that the frequencies of human brain-waves evolved in response to these signals.  If the hypothesis is correct, conditions for evolutionary changes in human brainwave patterns have now been established.

Hypothesis:  "The frequencies of naturally occurring electro-magnetic signals, circulating in the electrically resonant cavity bounded by the earth and the ionosphere, have governed or determined the 'evolution' or development of the frequencies of operation of the principal human brain-wave signals:  In particular, the alpha-rhythm is so placed that it can in no circumstances suffer an extensive interference from naturally occurring signals."

Further, variations in them can produce mild to disastrous health and behavioral changes.  These waves probably help regulate our bodies' internal clock, affect sleep patterns (REM), and hormonal secretion. The nature of the applied stimulus makes it difficult to identify the responses directly, as they are most likely to occur in the form of stress-related conditions.  They will therefore, show up as drastic increases in mental disturbance, anti-social behavior, psycho-somatic conditions, and neurological disturbances.   Some electrical field phenomena have already been linked with abnormal cell growth and a decrease in immuno-competency.

All these factors could be expected to lead to the appearance of 'new' diseases, probably accompanied by a decline in resistance to many minor infections: an increase in conditions related to abnormal cell development, including cancer, birth defects, and infertility and an increase in psychological disturbance problems, e.g. drug addiction, and suicides.  These existing psychobiological problems will increase in scale, but could be studied for deviations from 'normal' alpha cycles of 10.4 Hz with detectable changes in psychological characteristics and mental abilities.

Hainsworth therefore strongly urged that research be carried out by widespread measurements of the natural SR signals' frequency variations and field-strengths comparing them with resulting figures for the incidence of heart attacks, suicide attempts, road accidents, social violence, domestic accidents, crime, etc.  Studies are often conducted in this inferential way, such as those by Krippner and Persinger (1989), searching correlations between the phenomenon of earth lights and tectonic strain with reports of UFO sightings, abduction reports and other anomalous psychophysical experiences, for an electromagnetic correlation to temporal lobe seizures.

The authors also strongly suggest that correlations of broad changes in the modulations of Schumann's Resonance be studied in relationship to microwave radiation, ELF signals, and HAARP, for both immediate and long-term consequences.  We have discussed the obvious ramifications of such EM pollution and 10 - 50 Hz modulations on the human system elsewhere ("Synthetic Telepathy," 2001).

We (Miller & Miller) have discussed the benefits for human well being and relaxation to entraining with these natural rhythms in The Diamond Body (1981).  When a person is deeply relaxed, slow rhythmic sine wave patterns can be detected in both the EEG and the heart-aorta resonating oscillator in the 6-8 Hz range. Resonance occurs when the natural vibration frequency of a body is greatly amplified by vibrations at the same frequency from another body.

Oscillators alter the environment in a periodic manner.  Thus, standing waves in the body, during meditation/relaxation or not, can be driven by a larger signal. Progressively amplified wave forms, created by resonance, result in large oscillations entraining other circuits in the body tuned to those frequencies.  A hierarchy of frequencies thus couples our psychophysical selves to the harmonic frequency of the electrical charge of the Earth, which naturally pulses at the same frequencies.  This is hardly a coincidence as we are adaptive products of our environment.

Our planet is surrounded by a layer of electrically charged particles called the ionosphere.  The lower layer of the ionosphere is roughly 80 km from the crust; this charged layer is known to reflect radio waves.  Bombardment by HAARP signals "pushes" out this boundary layer, thus altering the natural pulsating rhythm. Natural fluctuations in frequency occur daily, by the lunar month, and in response to solar flares.

Since this is a highly charged layer, the ionosphere forms a so-called capacitor with the Earth.  This means that there is a difference in electrical potential between the two, the Earth being negatively charged and the ionosphere being positively charged.  This potential varies somewhat but is around 200 volts/m.  This is a fundamental type of electrical generator.  The solar winds, interacting with the upper atmosphere rotation, act as a collector and brushes of a generator.  The lower atmosphere can be seen as a storage battery for this gradient potential.

This electromagnetic field around the earth can be viewed as a stiff jelly.  When our bodies move and vibrate, these movements are transmitted to the environment, and vice versa.  These fields not only impinge on our bodies, they also affect the charges inside our bodies.  When we are standing on the ground, under normal conditions, we are grounded.  Our body then acts as a sink for the electrostatic field and actually distorts the force lines somewhat.  Our body also has its own electrostatic field about itself.  These field lines are the result of the various biochemical reactions in the body.  This resultant bio-field couples us to the isoelectric field of the planet (Miller & Miller, 1981).

In 1957, W. O. Schumann calculated the Earth-ionosphere cavity resonance frequencies, which were then named for him.  He fixed the most predominant standing wave around 7.5 Hz.  A "tuned system" consists of at least two oscillators of identical resonance frequencies.  If one oscillator starts emitting, the other will be activated by the signal very shortly, in the process of resonance, entrainment, or kindling.

Kindling is a term applied, in particular, to the entrainment of neurons in the brain.  They are ignited in coherent global patterns producing larger waves across a greater surface of the brain.  It becomes obvious that in deep meditation, when waves of alpha and theta rhythms cascade across the entire brain, it is possible for the human being and the planet to come into resonance.  There is a transfer of energy and information, which is embedded in a field rather than being a field.  Perhaps the planet communicates with us in this primal language of frequencies.

Ample anthropological evidence shows that humans have intuitively synchronized with the planetary resonance throughout human history and back into the mists of time.  There is cross-cultural evidence demonstrating a variety of ritualistic practices which enhance this harmonization with the planetary field.  Perhaps the most obvious "drivers" of these trance states are shamanic drumming and trance dance, arguably employed for over 50,000 years.  Pulsing light is another driver.  A further example comes from the use in both the Jewish and Muslim faiths of bobbing and swaying while praying or reading holy books.

This trancing phenomenon can be presumed to ingrain texts at a deeper level and to create "experiences" to go along with conceptual indoctrination.  It may also be linked in some manner to hypnotic gesturing (mudras) and speech, and therefore to charisma or so-called "mana" personalities.  Mead and Bateson reported a technique transmitted to Balinese children which this culture intuitively employed to harmonize their communities. They discovered that the parents encouraged their children to vibrate parts of their body, harmonizing to the SR cycle. And you can do the same thing; you may already do it unconsciously.

If you sit in a chair and move your foot so that it's resting on the ball of the foot, and you get it at the right angle, your whole leg will start to vibrate. It goes into an oscillation. That oscillation is so close to the SR cycle as to be virtually the same. And that's what Balinese parents encouraged their children to do. It helps them go into trance.

If one looks into a classroom of children, one will notice that the children are never sitting still. Teachers and parents become annoyed, constantly telling them to "Sit still!"  They are constantly bouncing their legs; and moving their arms. This may be a natural way in which our body energizes itself.  And this may even be the heart and soul of most ceremonial experiences. The body will begin to move, and hands begin to flutter. When one look at the hands of a healer, they are typically fluttering.  And if one looks at the older ceremonial practices, where there is less constraint on what they should or should not do, the whole body is usually shaking, fluttering, or in constant motion.

And you'll see this in the Kalahari Bushmen healing dance, where someone is filled with life energy.  Every part of their body becomes aroused, hot, and begins shaking.  If they grab another person and hug them, that person also begins shaking and may turn and grab someone else.  One by one, everyone begins literally vibrate with this pulsing energy. However, by the time it gets to our culture or other contemporary cultures (like Chinese medicine), this phenomena becomes very constrained and expresses through more subtle practice, such as "therapeutic entrainment."

Can anybody intentionally induce this healing/energizing frequency?  Yes, certainly.  There are all the kinds of little tricks and techniques -- because there is not just one right way.  It is a very natural capcity our bodies are intuitively capable of effecting, vibrating with the pulse of life itself.  The purpose of this movement is to get outside the limitations and constraints of  isolated individual mind and connect with something greater.  It has any number of names but this “greater Mind” links us to one another and to nature as a whole. (Keeney, 1997)

C.M. Anderson, M.D. (1998) of Harvard describes a commonly experienced yet little-understood phenomenon he calls the Persistent Oscillatory Sound.  Many people notice this internally-generated 'sound,' particularly when ill or dehydrated, as it seems to become "louder."  It sounds like an insect hum.  Anderson links it, as well as the REM or dream state and Post-traumatic stress syndrome (PTDS) to the normal alpha 10Hz rhythmicity, as cited by I. Miller (2001):

"Anderson speaks of the disturbing effect of lights and sounds, which might result from loss of normal global habituation due to RF destabilization, resulting in fear and/or rage. Again, trauma and drug abuse history is strongly associated with asymmetric hemispheric function.  Temporal lobe structures such as the hippocampus and amygdala are particularly sensitive to the effects of child abuse and trauma.

"Anderson conjectures the oscillatory sound could indicate rapid shifting or cycling of attentional resources between the left and right hemispheres, downshifting the normally constant 10 Hz rhythmicity of the olivocerebellar system.  This oscillatory auditory effect may function as an auditory driver.  The downshift effect may indicate possible flooding of the left hemisphere by material from the uninhibited right which takes over primary conscious focus.  This sets the stage, along with phasic fluctuations of the S-Net and uninhibited PGO, for the sudden onset of the SOC state and the waking dream period.

"Anderson alludes to “waking dreams as a healing journey through the fractal hyperspace of emotionally indexed childhood memories.”  He asserts that “the basolateral amygdala (BLA) is a critical neural substrate of the waking dream stage as fractal neural bursting in this subcortical cortex-like structure may represent access points in a fractal hyperspace of emotionally indexed memories.”

“The effects of early trauma on the development of the amygdala and other temporal lobe structures may interfere with its normal bilateral function during REM-sleep mediated consolidation of emotionally significant events.  The recall of traumatic childhood experiences in adults, due to the immaturity of limbic structures at the time of trauma, may require electrical stimulation or intensive PGO-like activity present during the oneiric state.  Habitual disruption of normal sleep processes by stress associated with combat, bereavement, divorce, child abuse, neglect or chronic drug abuse interferes with the natural restorative function of phasic REM processes.”

According to electrical engineer Hainsworth, the influence of naturally occurring SR signals on brain-wave pattern evolution is formally stated to show that low-power electrical fields could produce evolutionary change.  The electrical fields produced by modern electro-technology are then possible sources of evolutionary change.  The characteristics of some forms which might result should be considered.  Some fields might inhibit survival of existing forms.  Because of lack of available data, precise measurements are lacking and must therefore be quantitatively valueless.  Technology not only will, but IS changing human evolution.  Only extensive investigation of the naturally occurring signals will give any lead to show what results might occur.
