Subject: Re: [bwgen] Water sound effect after listening theta waves

I've tried bwgen with 4 hz theta waves. After 10 mins of listening, when I stop listening, a water effect starts in my brain. It's very interesting.

I've also felt that my senses get more sensitive.

Is this OK? What do you people think?

A suggestion might be found in the work of Patterson and Capel (1983) in Surrey, England. They found that different neurotransmitters were triggered by different frequencies and wave forms. For example, a 10-hertz signal boosts production and turnover rate of serotonin. "Each brain center generates impulses at a specific frequency, based on the predominant neurotransmitters it secretes," says Dr. Capel. "In other words, the brain's internal communications system--its language, if you like--is based on frequency..." (Ostrander & Schroeder, 1991, p. 264). The implications of Capel's & Patterson's work is that one can alter the brain's neurochemistry, and thereby it's functioning, with modifications of brain wave frequency.

Also look below at the remarks in the 4 HZ area.

I'm also wondering is there a site explaining all frequencies which can be used and what they mean/what kind of effect they do? Here is a copy of the listing I've acuminated over the course of a year and a half. Not all of the following frequencies/conditions have been verified by competent medical researchers. The references I have for each entry are shown at the end. (This is the study of Neurotechnology; the field of mind-machine interface.)

1-3 The last main pattern is that of delta waves, pulsations that range between 3 to 1-Hz. In this range of profound relaxation, images and dreams have largely subsided, as the person slides into a state of slow wave restorative sleep. Mediators who remain aware during this state of near unconsciousness report tranquility and peace. (37)

1.0 Feeling of well-being, pituitary stimulation to release growth hormone; overall view of inter-relationships; harmony and balance (16)

1.5 Abrams universal healing rate (40)

1.5 Less effect from symptoms. Those individuals whose ailments have manifested into the fourth stage of Chronic Fatigue, where some form of disease is apparent, experienced a release from the negative sensation of their symptoms when moved into 1.5-Hz. (25) (38)

2.9 14th harmonic of 40-Hz

3-4 Influences physical vision (40)

3.0-5.5 Theta 1 - When I first started doing Decrease training, I began with Decrease Theta at 4 to 8-Hz. Results were admittedly quite good, at least in regard to increasing SMR and Beta. When I read about Theta2, however, I realized that there could possibly be some interference with cognitive processing by decreasing Theta above 5.5-Hz As a result, I changed my primary Theta band to 3 to 6-Hz, calling it Thetal, and created a new secondary frequency band of 5.5 to 8-Hz, which became Theta2.

3.6 11th harmonic of 40-Hz

3-6 For eliciting unconscious childhood memories. (18)

3-6 Childhood awareness/vivid memories (40)

3-7 The Theta level is normally associated with recall,Êfantasy, imagery, creativity, inspiration, future planning, dreaming, switching thoughts, and drowsiness.

3-8 Theta - deep relaxation, meditation, increased memory, focus, creativity, lucid dreaming, Hypnagogic state.

3.0 Increased reaction time. (40)

3.5 Enhancement of receptivity (16)

4.5 Premature baby response time (latency). (41)

4-6 attitude and behavior change (17)

4-6 Out-of-body experiences. (40)

4-7 THETA Near sleep brain waves that are conducive to profound inner peace, "mystical truths", transforming unconsciously held limiting beliefs, physical and emotional healing, purpose of life exploration, a "live in quality" ... characterized by a "kind of knowing that feels like" inner wisdom, faith, meditation, some psychic abilities, and retrieving unconscious material (18)

4-7 Theta: recall, fantasy, imagery, creativity, planning, dreaming, switching thoughts, Zen meditation, drowsiness.

4-7 Meditation, Intuitive Augmentation.

4-7 Theta waves are associated with bursts of inspiration, creativity, twilight-sleep learning, deep relaxation, reverie, high levels of awareness, and vivid mental Imagery. They are Hypnopompic, and Hypnagogic (just before and just after sleep). Advanced Zen meditators can move from Alpha to Theta when in a trance as can biofeedback experts. Brain wave synchronization allows the user to reach these states without any special training or aptitude. (23)

4-8 Theta Found in states of deep relaxation, theta activity is also associated with bursts of creative insight, twilight ("sleep") learning and vivid mental imagery. It is also found in more advanced meditators. (37)

4-8 While this range is rather small, a difference of 1 or 2-Hz in this zone is very noticeable, as it is proportionately much larger than it would be in the beta or alpha range. This pattern is associated with deep unconscious imagery, and thus creativity, as the person drops into a state of drowsiness and near-sleep. (37)

4-8 THETA. Access to subconscious images, deep mediation, reduced Blood pressure, said to cure addictions. Theta seems to trigger the sudden reliving or vivid remembering of long-forgotten childhood memories. One explanation for this link between theta and childhood is that, while adults rarely produce theta, children are in a theta state most of the time--up to the age of six or beyond, children produce mostly theta waves, and then the amount of theta progressively decreases as the child grows into adulthood. In other words, children spend most of their time in what we adults would call a trance-like, altered state of consciousness, and one that is extremely open and receptive, highly conducive to the learning of new information and the creation of memories.

In recent years a large number of scientific studies have explored a phenomenon called "state bound" or "state dependent" learning. In essence, they have found that things experienced in one state (of consciousness) are far more easily remembered later when we are once again in that same state. Things learned when we're happy are remembered best when we're happy, what we learn when cold is remembered best when we're cold, and so on.

4-12 Skeletal muscle resonances. (40)

4.0 10th harmonic of 40-Hz

4.0 Associated with object naming, an important aspect of memory. (49)

4.0 Lowest frequency for brainwave entrainment. However, when the stimulus is repeated continuously above 4-Hz, the brain begins to "resonate" with the stream of stimuli and the resultant brainwave response is of the same frequency as the stimuli. (10)

4.0 According to Cavanagh (1972), Theta at 4-Hz corresponds to a full memory search. Theta, then, like Alpha, is a scanning frequency. Cavanagh began by compiling a number of studies dealing with different classes of stimuli (digits, colors, letters, words, geometrical shapes, random forms, and nonsense symbols). Each class of stimuli was found to have a characteristic reaction time. However, he found a constant of 243.2 ms when multiplying the reaction time for a single item by the maximum number of items in a given class. This indicated that each item class was scanned at a different speed, but that scanning of the full memory is always executed at a speed of 4-Hz.

4.0 Enkephalin s; Extrasensory perception; Encephalin productionÊ(16)

4.0 Reduction in levels of exhaustion. Those who suffer from Chronic Fatigue exhaust very easily. When moved to 4-Hz these individuals showed marked improvement in the length of time between the occurrence of exhaustion after certain exercises were completed (25)(38)

4.5-6.5 Wakeful dreaming, vivid images (40)

4.4 9th harmonic of 40-Hz

4.5 Shamanic State of Consciousness.(39)

4.5 Tibetan Buddhist chants (39)

4.9 Introspection. (40)

5-10 Relaxation.

5.0 8th harmonic of 40-Hz

5.0 Learning. (40)

5.0 Unusual problem solving (24)

5.0 In one study thirty patients experienced relaxation states of 80-100% after five minutes as well as improved pain relief. Eight patients had blood tests before and after the sessions and showed improved beta-endorphin levels of 10-50%.

5.3 Babies born full term response time (latency). (41)

5.5-8.0 Theta 2 (See Theta 1 - 3.0-5.5)

5.5 Knowingness, inner guidance. (40)

6.0-9.6 Somatic responses, tingling, pressure, heat. (40)

6-10 Creative Visualization - about 6-Hz for a while, then up to 10-Hz.

6.0 Long term memory stimulation (16)

6.26-6.6 Hemispheric de-sync, confusion, anxiety, low Reaction time, depression insomnia. (40)

6.2-6.7 Frontal Midline Theta (Fm Theta) is a specific EEG frequency seen in those subjects actively engaged in cognitive activity, such as solving math problems and playing Tetris (43)

6.3 Mental and astral projection; accelerated learning and increased memory retention.

6.5 Theta2 consists of trains (long runs) of rhythmic frontal activity centering at 6.5-Hz with amplitudes reaching the 50-100 uV (micro-volt) range. Theta2 is induced in some people by the performance of a mental task such as mental arithmetic, tracing a maze, counting the number of cubes piled in a three-dimensional representation, and imaging a scene. Because Theta2 is associated with mental tasks and its influence is seen in evoked potential latencies, Mizuki (1987) believes that the appearance of Theta2 closely relates to mechanisms of attention or arousal. Theta2 is more common in extroverts with low traits of neurosis and anxiety.

6.7 6th harmonic of 40-Hz

7-8 A fascinating possibility is the harmonic association of 40-Hz activity and the Alpha/Theta Neurofeedback training for addictions. If the 40--Hz/sub-harmonics theory is correct, the objective in addictive work is to teach the brain to open the fifth sub-harmonic "gate" of 40-Hz (7-8-Hz). It may be that the addicted person can open 40-Hz's fourth Harmonic gate (Alpha) with the alcohol or drugs. But, whether it is an anomalous gene, aberrant EEG frequencies, inappropriate neurochemistry a neurochemical "lock out," or some other reason, the alcoholic is not able to open the fifth sub-harmonic 7 to 8-Hz gate. Instead of entering the Alpha/Theta state, the person sinks into the high-amplitude slow waves of profoundly lowered arousal (unconsciousness). Alpha/Theta Neurofeedback results in some 80% of those addicts properly trained becoming non-craving, having a mellow personality and significantly adjusted neurochemistry (Peninston & Kulkosky, 1990). Alpha/Theta training may be a process by which the previously closed fifth sub-harmonic gate (40-Hz divided by 5) can be opened and certain critical neurochemistry accessed.

7-13 The Alpha level is associated with a non-drowsy but relaxed, tranquil state of consciousness, primarily with pleasant inward awareness; body/mind integration.

7.0 Treatment for sleep disturbances (46)

7.0 Mental and astral projection; bending objects; psychic surgery.

7.0 Spiritual healing, telekinesis, mind projection, increased reaction time. (40)

7.5 At 7.5-Hz subjects who before suffered from confused thinking reported an ease at finding solutions to troublesome problems after a re-evaluation was conducted. (25)

7.5 Inter-awareness of self and purpose, guided meditation, creativity (16)

7.5 Solutions to problems. At 7.5 -Hz subjects who before suffered from confused thinking reported an ease at finding solutions to troublesome problems after a re-evaluation was conducted. (38)

7.5 Creativity, discovery of "purpose" in life, inward focus. (40)

7.7 Doyere's group (1993), found that short high frequency bursts at 7.7 Hz induced LTP in prefrontal cortex, though only for one day. (56)

7.8-8.0 Stimulates ESP, paranormal. (40)

7.83 Earth Resonance (06)

7.83 Grounding (24)

7.83 Schumann earth-ionosphere resonance, grounding, integration anti-jetlag, anti-mind control, improved stress tolerance. (40)

7.83 (Earth resonance frequency) leaves you feeling revitalized like you've spent a day in the country. (18)

8-8.6 Reduced stress/anxiety. (40)

8-10 Alpha - Rapid Refreshment in 15 minutes.

8-10 learning new information (17)

8-12 light relaxation, "super learning", positive thinking.

8-12 Alpha waves are smooth, regular electrical oscillations in the human brain that occur when a person is awake and relaxed or entering into the meditative state. Associated with calm, relaxed, unfocused (not concentrating), lucid mental states, dream sleep, and pleasant drifting feelings or emotions. Persons who imagine vivid visual Images have fewer Alpha waves, and Non-visualizers (those whose preferences are tactile, aural, olfactoral, and simple visualizations) have stronger alpha waves. (23)

8-13 Alpha. Relaxation, tranquility, feeling fine, receptivity, amplifies dowsing, empty-mind states, detachment, daydreams, mind/body integration, epileptic seizures. (40)

8-13 Relaxed, tranquil and non-drowsy, inward awareness, body mind

8-14 Qi Gong and infrasonic Qi Gong machine (28)

8.3 Monroe Focus 12.

8.6-9.8 Induces sleep, tingling sensations. (40)

9,11,16 documented calcium ion migration (brain tissue). (40)

9-13 Alpha is relaxed, not thinking about anything in particular, sometimes a pleasurable feeling of "floating". Often dominant in certain kinds of meditation, alpha waves have for the past twenty years been associated with calm, lucid mental states (the "alpha state"). They are also often detected during dream sleep. (37)

9-13 This pattern typically occurs in daydreaming, relaxed awareness, guided or focused imagery and smoothly rhythmic athletic activity. There is often a euphoric, effortless feeling of "flow" as the doer is absorbed in activity, and subject and object are felt to be united. (37)

9.0 Awareness of causes of body imbalance and means for balance (24)

9.41 Pyramid frequency (outside)

9.5-10 The peak frequency of Alpha in most people is in the 9.5 to 10-Hz range, a fourth sub-harmonic of 40-Hz. Eccles and Walter (1950) both agree that Alpha is the brain's scanning mechanism. In light of logic and current neurophysiological information, this makes sense. For example, when the eyes are closed and the visual centers in the occipital and parietal regions are deprived of visual stimuli, Alpha amplitude in the posterior head regions usually increases dramatically. Furthermore, Galin and Omstein (1972) found Alpha magnitude decreases over the hemisphere of the brain that is under task. Alpha rhythm, then, appears to be only indirectly involved in the brain's attentional mechanism. Alpha is the brain's scanning (idling) frequency, denoting a brain "s standing by," waiting to give way to Beta should attention be required, or to be the bridge, the gate, to Theta and Delta for drowsiness, sleep, and certain cognitive challenges. Alpha is therefore an important cerebral rhythm, perhaps being mathematically a resonant piece of the 40-Hz Grand Conductor's ensemble of frequencies.

9.6 Mean dominant frequency associated with the earth's magnetic field (11)

9.8-10.6 Alertness. (40)

10+18 Significant improvements in memory, reading and spelling are reported (30)

10 4th harmonic of 40-Hz.

10 A harmonic frequency of 10-Hz was found to suppress EEG theta. Comparisons with control sounds of pink noise and pink noise with a sub-threshold 300-Hz tone indicated that the 10-Hz harmonic sub-threshold blends suppressed EEG theta to a considerably greater extent than did control sounds. Subthreshold tones have different windows of effectiveness for males and females (Swingle, 1992). Males are more influenced by SPL in the range of -15dB(C) whereas females respond more to SPL in the range of -25 dB(C). With children this distinction is less clear and in practice I recommend that the -25 dB(C) SPL side be used for both male and female children. (46)

10 Treatment for Attention Deficit (Hyperactivity) Disorder (47)

10 Treatment for closed head injury (48)

10 Dominant alpha frequency, clarity, normalcy, anti-convulsant circadian rhythm resync, activate kidneys, raise body temp, more serotonin. (40)

10 Acts as an analgesic, safest frequency, especially for hangover and jet lag. (11)

10 Meg Patterson used for nicotine withdrawal (15)

10 For learning a foreign language fast, (18)

10 In a study using 20 minute sessions of 10-Hz photic stimulation, it was found that the daytime level of melatonin decreased and increases in the levels of endorphin, serotonin and norepinephrine. Shealy's group suggested that an increase in beta endorphins is associated with a sense of well being and decreased pain. The increase in norepinephrine and serotonin and the decrease in melatonin suggest an increase in the level of alertness. (35)

10 increases in neurochemical levels: 11% increase in Norepinephrine levels, 21% increase in Serotonin levels, 25% increase in Beta-Endorphin levels

10.2 Catecholamines

10.5 Healing of body, mind/body unity, fire walking (24)

10.5 Potent stabilizer and stimulating for the immunity, valuable in convalescence. (16)

10.5 For specifically lowering blood pressure (18)

10.5 Baseline of Alpha production: Alpha production is defined as the ratio of the 10.5-Hz to the entire measured EEG spectrum. (03)

10.6 Relaxed and alert

11 Stress Reduction (less than 11-Hz

11-14 Focused alertness. (40)

11.5-14.5 An implication for neurotherapy is that if increased intelligence and mental efficiency is the objective, then a frequency band with a 13-Hz center should be used. A more desirable frequency band than 12 to 15-Hz is 11.5 to 14.5-Hz.

11 To achieve "relaxed yet alert states," (18)

12-15 Beta (low) - relaxed focus, improved attentive abilities

13-30 BETA Waking state, motivation, outer awareness, survival, problem solving, arousal, dendrite growth, combats drowsiness. (40)

13-30 Normal wakefulness (24)

13-30 The Beta level is associated with outward awareness, the taking in and evaluating of various forms of data received through the senses; it is present with worry, anger, fear, hunger, and surprise.

13-40 BETA a high frequency pattern, conducive to stimulating energy and action; most of our current institutionalized education is beta geared, characterized by logical, analytical, intellectual thinking, verbal communication, etc. (18)

13.3 3rd harmonic of 40-Hz.

14-15 Slows conditioned reflexes. (40)

15-24 Euphoria. (40)

15 Chronic pain (16)

16 Bottom limit of normal hearing (20)

16 Release oxygen and calcium into the cells (29)

18-22 Beta: outward awareness, sensory data

18+ Beta (high) - fully awake, normal state of alertness, stress and anxiety

18 To improve hyperactive behavior (18)

18+10 Significant improvements in memory, reading and spelling are reported (30)

19.6 For Beta to fit the 40--Hz/Subharmonics, theory, the frequency would have to be = 19.6 (= 39.5 divided by 2). Peak frequency evaluations of the 18 to 22-Hz Beta band in a small number of subjects show that = 19.6-Hz is close to the band's frequency peak. If the 40--Hz/subharmonics theory and early results are correct, Beta should be trained, not at the 15 to 18-Hz frequency band as suggested by Othmer (1991) or the 16 to 20-Hz range as proposed by Lubar (1991), but at 18 to 22-Hz. Lubar's 16 to 20-Hz band seems close to the theoretical Beta frequency band, but his 16 to 20-Hz band is marginal. The ~19.5 frequency center is to the far limits of the filter, probably restricting full access to the desired frequency.

20-30 Phospene imagery, peak luminosity in visual field. (40)

40 40--Hz activity varies from 38.8 to 40.1-Hz, regardless of the electrode site. The average frequency is in the ~39.5-Hz range. In summary, when the body is profoundly relaxed and the mind is in a state of high focus and concentration, 20 and 40-Hz brain activity can be seen in the raw and quantitative EEG of some subjects. It is possible that 18 to 22-Hz Beta and possibly 40-Hz neurofeedback training may help create a "relaxed body/focused mind" state of consciousness. 40 Activity in the ectosylvian and lateral cortex, medial geniculate, reticular formation, center median thalamus, and hippocampus (33)

40 Dominant when problem solving in fearful situations. (11)

40 Gamma - associated with information-rich task processing and high-level information processing

40 "A New Theory of Consciousness" For scientists who study the human brain, even its simplest act of perception is an event of astonishing intricacy. 40-Hz brain activity may be a kind of binding mechanism, said Dr. Rodolfo Llinas a professor of neuroscience at New York University. Llinas believes that the 40-Hz wave serves to connect structures in the cortex where advanced information processing occurs, and the thalamus, a lower brain region where complex relay and integrative functions are carried out (22)

40 Confirming Sheer et al.'s work,compared the EEG of middle- and high-I.Q. subjects during mental multiplication activity. A 40-Hz rhythm occurred just prior to the subject's answering the question. Forty--Hz pulses are thought to lead to synchronization and coordination of neurons assigned to the processing of incoming sensory stimulation. Put in "computerese," 40-Hz may be the brain's "operating system" frequency (12)

40 "Auditory evoked potentials are usually divided into three categories: brainstem potentials, less than 10 msec latency; late cortical potentials, probably 100 msec and up, something like that, I don't exactly remember; and the "middle latency potentials", with a latency in the range of about 20 to 40 msec or so, and a duration of about 25 msec. In other words, the later the potential, the more it resembles EEG, in several respects, especially sensitivity to anesthesia and levels of consciousness. A potential with a duration of 25 msec can be elicited using a 40-Hz stimulus (40 times a second that is; the stimuli can be tone bursts at various frequencies), thus producing a 40-Hz steady-state potential. In, say, the Seventies and Eighties, there was a lot of interest in using middle latency auditory EPs for hearing assessment in difficult-to-test subjects, particularly with the 40-Hz paradigm. The late cortical potentials are too closely linked to state of consciousness for that. Since the middle latency potentials are linked to state of consciousness, it makes sense to try to use them to assess levels of anesthesia. but I don't see that it has anything to do with the brain having a "resonance" at 40-Hz. In fact, since the highest amplitude EEG waves are at frequencies below 8-Hz (delta, theta), alpha waves (8-13) are in the middle, and beta (14 and up) are the smallest amplitudes, I would suspect that the resonant frequencies of cortical tissues are in the 10-Hz and under range. Notice, too, that the resonant frequencies, if that's indeed what they are, seem to change with levels of consciousness and activation -- in normal adults, you don't get frequencies under 7-Hz except in sleep, and you get occipital alpha activity only in an alert, relaxed state with eyes closed. Also, if it really has to do with a resonant frequency characteristic of the brain, why are there not 40-Hz visual and somatosensory potentials?" (27)

43-193 Carcinomatosis (02)

50-60 Documented negative effects too numerous to mention There is no correlation given with signal strength or modality used, i.e. audio-visual, EMF, magnetic, electrostatic, gravitic. Also, most ELF research is now Govt classified, particularly since the mid-1960's when Hamer discovered behavioral effects as the result of applied sinusoidal field gradients as low as 4 volts. (40)

Transcendental Meditation. Another interesting mathematical correlation with 40-Hz is the EEG during meditation. Banquet (1973) found 20- and 40--Hz EEG changes in advanced Transcendental Meditators during the third stage of meditation (considered to be deep meditation or "transcendence"). The EEG was characterized by a dominant Beta rhythm at 20-Hz. In summary, when the body is profoundly relaxed and the mind is in a state of high focus and concentration, 20- and 40--Hz brain activity can be seen in the raw and quantitative EEG of some subjects. It is possible that 18-22-Hz Beta and possibly 40--Hz neurofeedback training may help create a "relaxed body/focused mind" state of consciousness.

Immediate Relaxation and Stress Relief. Choose between 5 to 10-Hz for different levels of relaxation. (51)

Meditation. Choose between 4 to 7-Hz, either cycle between a few, or stay at a particular frequency for different results. (51)

Induce Sleep. Choose between 4 to 6-Hz for starters, then go into frequencies below 3.5-Hz, settling on about 1.5 to 2.5-Hz for sleep. (51)

Improved Sleeping Patterns. Any of the Alpha and Theta frequencies (8 to 4-Hz) for 30-45 minute sessions. (51)

Treatment of Insomnia. Choose between 4 to 6-Hz for starters (1/2 hour), then go into frequencies below 3.5-Hz (¸ hour), settling on about 1.5 to 2.5-Hz for sleep. (51)

Improved and Lasting Sense of Well Being. Try Theta (4 to 7-Hz) for 45 minutes, daily. (51)

Creative Visualization. About 6-Hz for a while, then up to 10-Hz works well. (51)

Stress Reduction. Any use of frequencies below 11-Hz will reduce stress. (51)

Alleviation of Migraines and Headaches. Experiment with Alpha and Theta combinations. (51)

Reduction of Depression Symptoms. Again, Alpha and Theta combinations, mostly theta. (51)

Self Hypnosis. Choose about 8 to 10-Hz while playing any self-hypnosis tape, or guided meditation. (51)

Super Learning. Choose about 7 to 9-Hz while playing any learning tapes, like foreign language tapes, etc. to increase comprehension. Listen during study of written material. (51)

Subliminal Programming. Choose 5 to 7-Hz while playing your favorite subliminal tapes, or make your own by recording some affirmations, and mix paste them from the clipboard at barely audible volumes. (51)

Improve ESP / Intuition. Theta frequencies help in this area, 4 to 7-Hz. (51)

Reaching Higher States of Consciousness. Theta again, with daily half hour sessions. (51)

Quick Refresher on long days. Low Alpha 8 to 10-Hz for about 15 minutes works well. (51)

Increased Immune System. Relaxing to Alpha and Theta combinations daily. Using Alpha Synchronization (8 to 12-Hz), expect similar increases in neurochemical levels: 11% increase in Norepinephrine levels, 21% increase in Serotonin levels, 25% increase in Beta-Endorphin levels. (51)

I.Q. increases. In a controlled study, (Dr. Siegried) Othmer has found that beta training (13 to 40 Hz) produces average IQ increases of 23 percent. In cases where the starting IQ value was lower than 100, the average IQ increase was 33 points. Othmer has also found dramatic improvements in visual retention and auditory memory, and the subjects showed major gains in reading and arithmetic. In a one-year follow-up study, the trainees showed major improvements in self-esteem and concentration and significant improvements in such areas as handwriting, school grades, sleep, irritability, organization, hyperactivity, verbal expression, and headaches...Amazingly the improvements seem to be permanent. (52)

Food Supplement. To my joy, I found a combination of dimethylaminoethanol (DMAE), a nutrient found in seafood, and binaural-beat signals worked well to offset my learning disabilities.

Biochemical processes linked by frequencies. All of the biochemical processes of the body are linked by frequency relationships as elucidated by Ms. Edwards. One elegant example is the frequency relationship between two of the minerals that are primary constituents of bone: if you combine the frequencies for each, the combined frequency is the frequency of the amino acid with binds the two into bone!

Effect of latency on aging. Also in 1959, Robert Ellingson, PhD, of the Nebraska Psychiatric Institute, examined the effects of photic stimulation on 700 babies. In his study, he placed a strobe light ten inches from the babies' faces. He noted that premature babies had response times (latencies) as long as 220 milliseconds (msec). Babies born at term had latencies of about 190 msec. These fell to nearly 100 msec by 15 weeks of age with very little change into adulthood. The amplitude of the evoked response in the babies was best when their eyes were closed and probably sleeping.

Alcohol or drug addiction and the Alpha/Theta border. If the 40-Hz / subharmonics theory is correct, the objective in addictive work, is to teach the brain to open the fifth subharmonic "gate" of 40-Hz (7 to 8-Hz). It appears that the addicted person can open 40-Hz's fourth Harmonic gate (Alpha) with the alcohol or drugs, but, for some reason the alcoholic is not able to open the fifth subharmonic 7 to 8-Hz gate and sinks into the high-amplitude slow waves of profoundly lowered arousal (unconsciousness.) Alpha/Theta training may be a process by which the previously closed fifth subharmonic gate (40-Hz divided by 5) can be opened and certain critical neurochemistry accessed and results in some 80% of those addicts properly trained becoming non-craving, having a mellow personality and significantly adjusted neurochemistry (Peninston & Kulkosky, 1990).

Meditation. Another interesting mathematical correlation with 40-Hz is the EEG during meditation. Banquet (1973) found 20 and 40-Hz EEG changes in advanced Transcendental Meditators during the third stage of meditation (considered to be deep meditation or "transcendence").

Das and Gastaut (1955), recording from seven trained Yogis, reported high amplitude levels of 40-Hz activity during the Samadi state, which is the final, most intense concentration state in this form of meditation. Pollini and Peper (1976) reported Beta activity at 18 To 20-Hz in subjects during meditation. In summary, when the body is profoundly relaxed and the mind is in a state of high focus and concentration, 20 and 40-Hz brain activity can be seen in the raw and quantitative EEG of some subjects. It is possible that 18 to 22-Hz Beta and possibly 40-Hz Neurofeedback training may help create a "relaxed body/focused mind" state of consciousness.

Sleep disturbances. The sound was a single sinusoidal tone that modulated between 285-Hz and 315-Hz at about 7 cycles per minute. We have found that a subliminal recording of this tone is clinically useful for some patients with sleep disturbances.

Male and female Sound Pressure Levels. Two equal amplitude sinusoidal tones with frequency differences of 2 -Hz, 5 -Hz, 8 -Hz, 10 -Hz, 15 -Hz, and 25 -Hz were embedded in pink noise at Sound Pressure Levels (SPL) of -17 dB(C) and -25 dB(C); which correspond to the effective subliminal ranges for males and females, respectively (Swingle, 1992).

Out-of-the-body experience. It was interesting to note the highest amplitude beta was at 40 and 22-Hz. These numbers resonate with some of the unpublished work done by Dr. Edgar Wilson and students of the Monroe Institute who were attempting to have an out-of-the-body experience. He found that as the students moved out-of-the-body, their beta activity increased dramatically at T3 and/or T4 with the highest amplitudes appearing at 22 and 40-Hz. Dr . Steven Fahrion presented a paper a couple of years ago concerning his work with healers and reported much the same results. Perhaps these papers will be published at some future date. (44)

PMS. An EEG study of six women with PMS demonstrated that, when they were premenstrual, their EEG s showed more slow (delta) activity and slower P300 evoked response than when they were mid-cycle. It is concluded that PMS belongs to a group of disorders characterized by excessive slow brainwave activity. In a treatment for PMS, seventeen women with PMS treated themselves with a take-home flashing light device for 15 to 20 minutes per day throughout their cycle, using frequencies of 18-Hz and 10-Hz alternating for two minute periods. Thirteen of the seventeen experienced a greater than 50% reduction in their symptoms. It is concluded that photic stimulation is an effective treatment for PMS. (53)

Treatment of Chronic Anxiety Disorder with Neurotherapy. In November, 1991 we introduced the patient to EEG feedback training, to relax and remove tension. The original protocol was to increase alpha (8 to 12-Hz) and decrease beta (16 to 20 -Hz). Initial baseline readings showed that the patient's dominant brain wave frequency was already alpha (amplitude greater than 35-Hz). Following 15 sessions of slow wave inhibit/fast wave increase EEG feedback training, the patient reported a significant reduction in anxiety-related symptoms. At a three-year follow-up, resul ts of an MMPI-2 showed all clinical scales within normal range. In addition, self-reports confirmed that the patient was symptom free. (54)

Chronic Fatigue Syndrome (CFS). This study revealed CFS EEG microvolt levels were significantly higher in the 5 to 7-Hz range in both conditions and were significantly lower in the 9 to 11-Hz range. This display of excess theta is assumed to reflect the cognitive difficulties associated with CFS. The increased microvolt levels found in the lower frequencies in CFS subjects may be indicative of deficits in information processing speed, psychomotor activity, attention, retrieval of information from semantic memory, and logical reasoning, and the metabolism of the cerebral cortex found in earlier studies between CFS patients and other disorders (DeLuca et al., 1995; Johnson et al., 1994; Krupp et al., 1994; Ray et al., 1993; Schwartz et al., 1994; Smith et al., 1993). (55)

Autism. Frankie has received 31 sessions of training in which he has been rewarded for raising his SMR (12 to 15-Hz) and decreasing theta (4 to 8-Hz) activity at various brain loci on the sensory-motor strip and parietal lobe. The behavioral changes and the brain wave changes in this 8-year-old autistic boy are viewed as a positive outcome of Neurotherapy. These results are suggestive that Neurotherapy can be an effective treatment for some of the symptoms of mild autism. (42)

Despite major differences in chamber shapes and sizes, the resonant modal patterns all featured strong antinodes at the outer walls, with appropriately configured nodes and antinodes interspersed toward the central source. In some cases, interior and exterior rock drawings resembled these acoustical patterns. Since the resonant frequencies are well within the adult male voice range, one may speculate that some forms of human chanting, enhanced by the cavity resonance, were invoked for ritual purposes.

The Foundations of Scientific Musical Tuning by Jonathan Tennenbaum.

Revolution in Music Page

This article is based on a speech given by the author, Director of the European Fusion Energy Foundation, at an April 1988 Schiller Institute conference on scientific tuning held in Milan, Italy. It appears also in the Institute's "Manual on the Rudiments of Tuning and Registration. I want to demonstrate why, from a scientific standpoint, no musical tuning is acceptable which is not based on a pitch value for middle C of 256Hz (cycles per second), corresponding to A no higher than 432Hz. In view of present scientific knowledge, all other tunings including A=440 must be rejected as invalid and arbitrary.

Those in favor of constantly raising the pitch typically argue, "What difference does it make what basic pitch we choose, as long as the other notes are properly tuned relative to that pitch? After all, musical tones are just frequencies, they are all essentially alike. So, why choose one pitch rather than another?" To these people, musical tones are like paper money, whose value can be inflated or deflated at the whim of whoever happens to be in power.

This liberal philosophy of "free-floating pitch" owes its present power and influence in large part to the acoustical theories of Hermann Helmholtz, the nineteenth-century physicist and physiologist whose 1863 book, Die Lehre von den Tonempfindungen als physiologische Grundlage fur die Theorie der Musik (The Theory of the Sensations of Tone as a Foundation of Music Theory) became the standard reference work on the scientific bases of music, and remains so up to this very day. Unfortunately, every essential assertion in Helmholtz's book has been proven to be false.

Helmholtz's basic fallacy- still taught in most music conservatories and universities today- was to claim that the scientific basis of music is to be found in the properties of vibrating, inert bodies, such as strings, tuning forks, pipes, and membranes. Helmholtz defined musical tones merely as periodic vibrations of the air. The fundamental musical tones, he claimed, are sine waves of various frequencies. Every other tone is merely a superposition of added-up sine waves, called "overtones" or "harmonics." The consonant musical intervals are determined by properties of the "overtone series" to be simple whole-number ratios of frequencies. Arguing from this standpoint, Helmholtz demanded that musicians give up well-tempering and return to a "natural tuning" of whole-number ratios; he even attacked the music of J.S. Bach and Beethoven for being "unnatural" on account of their frequent modulations.

Helmholtz based his theory of human hearing on the same fallacious assumptions. He claimed that the ear works as a passive resonator, analyzing each tone into its overtones by means of a system of tiny resonant bodies. Moreover, he insisted that the musical tonalities are all essentially identical, and that it makes no difference what fundamental pitch is chosen, except as an arbitrary convention or habit. Helmholtz' theory: linear and wrong.

Helmholtz's entire theory amounts to what we today call in physics a "scalar," "linear," or at best, "quasi-linear" theory. Thus, Helmholtz assumed that all physical magnitudes, including musical tones, can at least implicitly be measured and represented in the same way as lengths along a straight line. But, we know that every important aspect of music, of the human voice, the human mind, and our universe as a whole, is characteristically nonlinear. Every physical or aesthetic theory based on the assumption of only linear or scalar magnitudes, is bound to be false.

A simple illustration should help clarify this point. Compare the measurement of lengths on a straight line with that of arcs on the circumference of a circle. A straight line has no intrinsic measure; before we can measure length, we must first choose some unit, some interval with which to compare any given segment. The choice of the unit of measurement, however, is purely arbitrary.

The circle, on the contrary, possesses by its very nature an intrinsic, absolute measure, namely one complete cycle of rotation. Each arc has an absolute value as an angle, and the regular self-divisions of the circle define certain specific angles and arcs in a lawful fashion (e.g., a right angle, or the 120 deg angle subtended by the side of an equilateral triangle inscribed in the circle).

Just as the process of rotation, which creates the circle, imposes an absolute metric upon the circle, so also the process of creation of our universe determines an absolute value for every existence in the universe, including musical tones. Helmholtz refused to recognize the fact that our universe possesses a special kind of curvature, such that all magnitudes have absolute, geometrically-determined values. This is why Helmholtz's theories are systematically wrong, not merely wrong by accident or through isolated errors. Straight-line measures are intrinsically fallacious in our universe.

For example, sound is not a vibration of the air. A sound wave, we know today, is an electromagnetic process involving the rapid assembly and disassembly of geometrical configurations of molecules. In modern physics, this kind of self-organizing process is known as a "soliton." Although much more detailed experimental work needs to be done, we know in principle that different frequencies of coherent solitons correspond to distinct geometries on the microscopic or quantum level of organization of the process. This was already indicated by the work of Helmholtz's contemporary, Bernhard Riemann, who refuted most of the acoustic doctrines of Helmholtz in his 1859 paper on acoustical shock waves.

Helmholtz's theory of hearing also turned out to be fallacious. The tiny resonators he postulated do not exist. The human ear is intrinsically nonlinear in its function, generating singularities at specific angles on the spiral chamber, corresponding to the perceived tone. This is an active process, akin to laser amplification, not just passive resonance. In fact, we know that the ear itself generates tones.

Moreover, as every competent musician knows, the simple sinusoidal signals produced by electronic circuits (such as the Hammond electronic organ) do not constitute musical tones. Prior to Helmholtz, it was generally understood that the human singing voice, and more specifically, the properly trained bel canto voice, is the standard of all musical tone. Historically, all musical instruments were designed and developed to imitate the human voice as closely as possible in its nonlinear characteristics.

The bel canto human voice is for sound what a laser is for light: The voice is an acoustical laser, generating the maximum density of electromagnetic singularities per unit action. It is this property which gives the bel canto voice its special penetrating characteristic, but also determines it as uniquely beautiful and uniquely musical. By contrast, electronic instruments typically produce Helmholtzian sine-wave tones, which are ugly, "dead," and unmusical exactly to the extent that they are incoherent and inefficient as electromagnetic processes.

Tuning is based on the voice

The human voice defines the basis for musical tuning and, indeed, for all music. This was clearly understood long before Helmholtz, by the scientific current associated with Plato and St. Augustine, and including Nicolaus of Cusa, Leonardo da Vinci and his teacher Luca Pacioli, and Johannes Kepler. In fact, Helmholtz's book was a direct attack on the method of Leonardo da Vinci.

If Helmholtz's theories are wrong, and those of Plato through Kepler and Riemann have been proven correct- at least as far as these went- then what conclusions follow for the determination of musical pitch today? Let us briefly outline the compelling reasons for C=256 Hz as the only acceptable scientific tuning, which have emerged from a review of the classical work of Kepler et al. as well as modern scientific research.

The human voice, the basic instrument in music, is also a living process. Leonardo and Luca Pacioli demonstrated that all living processes are characterized by a very specific internal geometry, whose most direct visible manifestation is the morphological proportion of the Golden Section. In elementary geometry, the Golden Section arises as the ratio between the side and the diagonal of a regular pentagon (see Figure 1). The Golden Section naturally forms what we call a self-similar geometric series- a growth process in which each stage forms a Golden Section ratio with the preceding one. Already before Leonardo da Vinci, Leonardo Pisano (also called Fibonacci) demonstrated that the growth of populations of living organisms always follows a series derived from the Golden Section. In extensive morphological studies, Leonardo da Vinci showed that the Golden Section is the essential characteristic of construction of all living forms. For example, Figure 2 illustrates the simplest Golden Section proportions of the human body.

Since music is the product of the human voice and human mind- i.e., of living processes- therefore, everything in music must be coherent with the Golden Section. This was emphatically the case for the development of Western music from the Italian Renaissance up through Bach, Mozart, and Beethoven.

The Classical well-tempered system is itself based on the Golden Section. This is very clearly illustrated with the following two series of tones, whose musical significance should be evident to any musician: C-E- flat-G-C, and C-E-F-sharp-G. In the first series, the differences of the frequencies between the successive tones form a self-similar series in the proportion of the Golden Section. The frequency differences of the second series decrease according to the Golden Section ratio (see Figure 3).

The Golden Section

To understand the well-tempered system better, we must first examine the reason why certain specific proportions, especially the Golden Section, predominate in our universe, whereas others do not.

There is nothing mysterious or mystical about the appearance of the Golden Section as an "absolute value" for living processes. Space itself-that is, the visual space in which we perceive things-has a specific "shape" coherent with the Golden Section. For, space does not exist as an abstract entity independent of the physical universe, but is itself created. The geometry of space reflects the characteristic curvature underlying the process of generation of the universe as a whole. We know that space has a specific shape, because only five types of regular solids can be constructed in space: the tetrahedron, cube, octahedron, dodecahedron, and icosahedron (see Figure 4).

These five solids are uniquely determined characteristics of space. They are absolute values for all of physics, biology, and music. Indeed, Luca Pacioli emphasized that all the solids are derived from a single one, the dodecahedron, and that the latter is uniquely based upon the Golden Section. Hence, the Golden Section is the principal visual characteristic of the process of creation of the universe.

In his Mysterium Cosmographicum, Kepler provided further, decisive proof for Leonardo and Pacioli's method. He demonstrated that the morphology of the solar system, including the proportions of the planetary orbits, is derived from the five regular solids and the Golden Section. Figure 5 shows Kepler's famous construction of the planetary orbits through a nested series of concentric spheres, whose spacing is determined by inscribed regular solids. Therefore, the solar system has the same morphological characteristics as living organisms.

Kepler located the underlying reason for these morphological characteristics in the generating process of the universe itself, and this he attempted to identify with the help of what is called the isoperimetric theorem. This theorem states that among all closed curves having a given parameter, the circle is the unique curve which encloses the greatest area. Circular action is the maximally efficient form of action in visible space, and therefore coheres uniquely with the bel canto musical tone and the beam generated by a laser. Kepler reasoned that if circular action reflects uniquely the creative process of the universe, then the form of everything which exists- of atoms and molecules, of the solar system, and the musical system- must be constructible using nothing but circular action.

By this procedure, called "synthetic geometry," we generate from the circle, by folding it upon itself (i.e., circular action applied to itself), a straight line, the diameter. By folding again, we obtain a point, the center of the circle, as the intersection of two diameters, as in Figure 6. This alone creates for us the basic "elements" of plane geometry. Also, by rotating a circle we obtain the sphere (see Figure 7).

Further constructions, using circular action alone, generate the regular polygons- the equilateral triangle, square, and pentagon- which form the faces of the five regular solids. From these uniquely determined polygons, Kepler derived the fundamental musical intervals of the fifth, fourth, and major third, without any reference to overtones. These polygons embody the principle of self-division of circular action by 3, 4, and 5. The octave, or division by 2, we already obtained as the very first result of folding the circle against itself. From division by 2, 3, 4, and 5 we obtain, following Kepler, the following values for the basic musical intervals: octave, 1:2, fifth, 2:3, fourth, 3:4, major third, 4:5.

Division by seven is invalid, Kepler argued, because the heptagon is not constructible from circular action alone, nor does it occur in any regular solid. Since Kepler's musical ratios are uniquely coherent with the regular solids, they are uniquely coherent with the Golden Section underlying those solids.

Kepler went on to demonstrate that the angular velocities of the planets as they move in their elliptical orbits around the sun, are themselves proportioned according to the same ratios as the fundamental musical intervals (see Table I). Since Kepler's time, similar relations have been demonstrated in the system of moons of various planets, and provisionally also even in the motion of spiral galaxies. C=256 as a "Keplerian interval"

C=256 has a uniquely defined astronomical value, as a Keplerian interval in the solar system. The period of one cycle of C=256 (1/256 of a second) can be constructed as follows. Take the period of one rotation of the Earth. Divide this period by 24 (=2 times 3 times 4), to get one hour. Divide this by 60 (=3 times 4 times 5) to get a minute, and again by 60 to obtain one second. Finally, divide that second by 256 (=2 times 2 times 2 times 2 times 2 times 2 times 2 times 2). These divisions are all Keplerian divisions derived by circular action alone. It is easy to verify, by following through the indicated series of divisions, that the rotation of the Earth is a "G," twenty-four octaves lower than C=256. Similarly, C=256 has a determinate value in terms of the complete system of planetary motions.

By contrast, A=440 is a purely arbitrary value, having no physical-geometrical justification. A=440 is an insane tuning in the rigorous sense that it bears no coherent relationship with the universe, with reality.

Today, we can add some essential points to this. Kepler's solution was absolutely rigorous, as far as it went; however, circular action is only an incomplete representation of creative action in the universe. The next great step was taken by Carl Friedrich Gauss at the beginning of the nineteenth century. Gauss introduced conical spiral action, instead of mere circular action, as the basis for synthetic geometry. Spiral action combines the isoperimetric principle of the circle with the principle of growth expressed by the Golden Section.

Let us demonstrate conical spiral action in the bel canto voice. Have a soprano sing a scale upward, starting at middle C (=256). As the frequency increases, so does the intensity of the sound produced. The more precise term for this intensity is "energy flux density." But this increase is not merely linear extension, not merely increase in scalar magnitude. As our singer sings upward, two important events occur. First, she must make a register shift, at F-sharp, in order to maintain the "isoperimetric," least-action form of bel canto tone. We shall return to the register shift in a moment. The second event occurs upon arrival at the octave, C=512. We hear very clearly, that one cycle of action has been completed, like a 360 deg rotation. This proves that there is a rotational component of action to increase the frequency or energy flux density. Again, Helmholtzian straight-line action does not exist.

The true geometry of the singer's action is therefore most simply represented by spiral action upward on a cone. In Figure 8, the cone's axis represents frequency. Each circular cross-section of the cone represents a bel canto musical tone. The spiral makes one complete rotation in passing from C=256 to C=512, and one more cycle would bring it from C=512 to the next higher octave, C=1024. Thus, the interval of an octave corresponds to one complete 360 deg cycle of conical spiral action.

Not only the octave, but all musical intervals, correspond to specific angles on conical-spiral action. This is most clearly seen if we project our conical spiral onto a plane perpendicular to the axis (see Figure 9). If we divide a full 360 deg rotation into twelve equal angles, then each such (30 deg) displacement corresponds to a semitone interval in frequency. The radial lengths defined by the spiral at the indicated twelve angles are exactly proportional to the frequencies of the equal-tempered musical scale. The interval of a fifth corresponds to rotation through 7/12 of the circle, or 210 deg. The interval of a minor third corresponds to a right angle, and so forth.

(The equal-tempered system is only an approximation of a rigorous well-tempered system whose details have yet to be fully elaborated. Nevertheless, the indicated construction identifies the frequency regions and angular displacements within which the well-tempered values are to be defined.)

Most important, the halfway point of the full cycle starting at C, is F-sharp, the diminished fifth from C, or the interval once known as the "devil's interval." In terms of geometrical proportion, this F-sharp is located as the geometric mean of C=256 and its octave, C=512.

If we carry out synthetic geometry constructions with conical spiral action, just as Kepler did with circular action, we discover wonderful things. For example, construct the characteristic of the conical volume bounded by the circles at C=256 and C=512, by slicing the cone diagonally across those two circles. The result is an ellipse. Project this ellipse onto the plane. The principal parameters of the resulting plane ellipse define exactly the frequency ratios for the most important division-points of the octave (see Figure 10):

C=256 corresponds to the perihelion of the ellipse C=512 corresponds to the aphelion F corresponds to the semi-latus rectum F-sharp corresponds to the semi-minor axis G corresponds to the semi-major axis

At the same time, F, F-sharp, and G correspond to the harmonic, geometric, and arithmetic means, respectively, of the octave. These three means formed the basis of classical Greek theories of architecture, perspective, and music. The same notes F, F-sharp, and G mark the principal division of the basic C-major scale. This scale consists of two congruent tetrachords: C-D-E-F and G-A-B-C. The dividing-tone is F-sharp.

Physical significance of the register shift

Let us now return to our soprano. She makes the first register shift, from first to second register, exactly at this point of division. The first tetrachord, C-D-E-F, is sung in the first register, while G-A-B-C are sung in the second register. The register shift divides the scale exactly at the geometrical-mean or halfway point in the cycle of conical spiral action. The same process repeats in the next-higher octave, where the shift from second to third register of the soprano comes once again at F-sharp, the geometric mean.

The bel canto shift is a physical event of fundamental importance, and not merely a technical question for the voice. In physical terms, the register shift constitutes a singularity, a nonlinear phase change comparable to the transformation from ice to water or water to steam. An even better comparison is to the biological process of cell division (mitosis). In every case, we see that in C=256 tuning, the region of this singularity coincides with the principal geometrical division of conical spiral action. (Here we take the soprano voice, for musical and developmental reasons, as the fundamental reference for the human voice in general.)

Our solar system also makes a "register shift." It has long been noted that the inner planets (Mercury, Venus, Earth, and Mars) all share such common features as relatively small size, solid silico-metallic surface, few moons, and no rings. The outer planets (Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, and Neptune) share a second, contrasting set of characteristics: large size, gaseous composition, many moons, and rings. The dividing-point between these two sharply contrasting "registers" is the asteroid belt, a ring-like system of tens of thousands of fragmentary bodies believed to have arisen from an exploded planet.

It is easy to verify that the solar-system register shift falls exactly in the same, geometric-mean position, as the shift of the soprano voice in the proper C=256 tuning. If we begin at the outer layer of the sun, and construct a self-similar (logarithmic) spiral making exactly one rotation in passing from that layer to the orbit of the innermost planet, Mercury, then the continuation of that spiral will make exactly one full cycle in passing from Mercury to the region defined by the overlapping orbits of Neptune and Pluto (see Figure 11). The halfway or geometric-mean point comes exactly at the outer boundary of the asteroid belt. More precisely, if we compare the planetary spiral with our simple spiral derivation of the equal-tempered system, letting the interval from Mercury to Neptune-Pluto correspond to the octave C-C, then the planetary orbits correspond exactly in angular displacements to the principal steps of the scale. The asteroid belt occupies exactly the angular position corresponding to the interval between F and F-sharp; this region is where the soprano makes the register-shift, in C=256 tuning. Thus, complete coherence obtains, with this tuning, between the human voice, the solar system, the musical system, and the synthetic geometry of conical spiral action.

Figure 12 illustrates what happens if the tuning is arbitrarily raised, from C=256 (corresponding to A between 427Hz and 432Hz) to, for example, A=449. The soprano register shifts (at approximately 350Hz and 700Hz) lie, in the higher tuning, between E and F, rather than between F and F-sharp. This divides the octave in the wrong place, destroys the geometry of the musical system, destroys the agreement between music and the laws of the universe, and finally destroys the human voice itself.

If we arbitrarily changed the "tuning" of the solar system in a similar way, it would explode and disintegrate! God does not make mistakes: Our solar system functions very well with its proper tuning, which is uniquely coherent with C=256. This, therefore, is the only scientific tuning.

  • Brainwave Frequencies - These are frequencies associated with various mental states. Using brainwave entrainment, you can coax your brainwaves to a certain frequency, and in doing so, achieve the mental state associated with that frequency.

  • "Healing" Frequencies - These are frequencies that various parties claim could be used to heal illnesses of different kinds, or stimulate some region of the body (chakras). The medium used to do this varies - some of these parties used devices that generated EM fields which were applied to a precise part of the body, while others used vibration and sound. (I don't have any experience with using EM fields - most of my personal toying about with this stuff uses a sound medium.)

  • Natural Phenomena Frequencies - This includes natural frequencies that occur in nature [Schumann's Resonance, for instance], as well as sound tones calculated from the revolution/orbit of the various planets. The sources of these frequencies claimed that they could affect humans in a variety of ways.

Often dominant in certain kinds of meditation, alpha waves have for the past twenty years been associated with calm, lucid mental states (the "alpha state"). They're also often detected during dream sleep. This pattern typically occurs in daydreaming, relaxed awareness, guided or focused imagery & smoothly rhythmic athletic activity. There's often a euphoric, effortless feeling of "flow" as the doer is absorbed in activity and subject + object are felt to be united. [VUG via DW]

    9.0 - 14.0 Alpha range (according to [AWI]) - Relaxed & detached awareness, visualization, sensory imagery, light reverie. Also, gateway to meditation - provides bridge between the conscious & subconscious mind. [AWI]

    9.0 - Awareness of causes of body imbalance & means for balance[x] Blind person phantom touch reading (somatosensory cortex) [RA]; Associated with Sacral/Svadhisthana chakra (Color=Orange) (Body Parts=Gonads, Reproductive System) (Effects=Relationships/Sexuality) (Note=D) [OML]

    9.19 Associated with upper lip (Effects=emotions, conflict resolution) [ TOS]

    9.4 Major frequency used for prostate problems. [ESR] - Self-explanatory. =)

    9.41 - Pyramid frequency (outside) (I can't find a good definition of "Pyramid Frequency". Anybody?)

    9.5-10 - Center of Alpha Range - The brain's scanning/idling frequency - indicating a brain standing by, waiting to "give way to beta should attention be required, or be the bridge, the gate, to Theta & Delta for drowsiness, sleep, and certain cognitive challenges. [DW]

  • He gives credit for the 'brain scanning' factoid to Eccles & Walter (1950). (It was their conclusion.)

    9.6 - Mean dominant frequency associated with earth's magnetic field [EQ]; Facial Toning [ESR] (I'm not completely sure what "facial toning" is.. Anybody?)

    9.8-10.6 Alertness [SS]

    10 - enhanced release of serotonin & mood elevator, universally beneficial, use to try effects of other mixes [MB]. Acts as ananalgesic, safest frequency, especially for hangover & jet lag. [EQ] Meg Patterson used for nicotine withdrawal. [MB3] dominant alpha frequency, clarity, normalcy, anti-convulsant, circadian rhythm resync, activate kidneys, raise body temp, more serotonin [SS]; Good when trying to correlate information by the subconscious - Sort of a waiting frequency while the subconscious does the work at lower frequencies. [RA]; Motor impulse coordination (Motor Control cortex) [RA]; Learning a foreign language [RA+PWM via DW]; Centering, Sleep Spindles, Arousal [DIV]; Associated with Solar Plexus/Manipura chakra (Color=Yellow) (Body Parts=Pancreas, Stomach, Liver, Gall Bladder, Nervous System) (Effects=Spiritual wisdom, self-healing)(Note=E) [OML]; Increased alertness (caused by an increase in norepinephrine + serotonin & a decrease in melatonin), sense of well being & decreased pain (caused by increase in beta-endorphins) [RED]; Adrenal Stimulant [RS]; Significant improvements in memory, reading & spelling are reported (in conjunction with 18 HZ) [RUS via DW]; Treatment for Attention Deficit Disorder/Hyperactivity [LUB via DW]; Treatment for closed head injury [HOF via DW]; 'Berger Rhythm' [BER via DW]; (used on) headaches [RS]

    10.2 Catecholamines

    10.3 Associated With Nasal Passages (Effects=breathing, taste) [TOS]

    10.5 - Frequency for healing of body, mind/body unity, firewalking [x]; potent stabilizer & stimulating for the immunity, valuable in convalescence. [MB] Relaxed alertness, contemplation, body healing, mind over matter [SS] Lowering Blood Pressure [RA+PWM via DW]; Associated with Heart/Anahata chakra (Color=Green) (Body Parts=Thymus, Heart, Blood, Circulatory System) (Effects=Love of Life, love of self&others) ( Note=F) [OML]

    10.6 - Relaxed & alert

    10.7 Associated with ears (Effects=hearing, formal concepts) [TOS]

    11.0 (& Below) - Stress Reduction (DW)

    11-14 Focused alertness [SS]

    11.0 (used to) achieve "relaxed yet alert" states. [PWM]

    11.5-14.5 An implication for neurotherapy is that if increased intelligence + mental efficiency is the objective, then a frequency band with a 13-Hz center should be used. A more desirable frequency band than 12 to 15-Hz is 11.5 to 14.5-Hz. [DW]

    12.0 - Centering, doorway to all other frequencies [x] ; frequency of earth resonance (Hercules - a researcher); Centering, mental stability, transitional point, time seems faster [SS]; To stimulate mental clarity [ESR]; Associated with Throat/Vishuddha chakra (Color=Blue) (Body Parts= Thyroid, Lungs, Vocal Cords) (Effects=Expression/self in society)(Note =G) [OML]

    12.3 Associated with eyes (Effects=Visualization) [TOS]

    12.0-14.0 Learning Frequency - Good for absorbing information passively, when you plan to think about it later. [RA]

  • [RA] distinguishes between active studying where you're processing information & passive studying where you're just trying to absorb information + plan to think about it later. For the former, he suggests 36 to 44 HZ.

    12.0-15.0 Beta (low) - relaxed focus, improved attentive abilities [NEU]; Treating Hyperactivity [RA] ; Sensorimotor Rhythm (SMR) - Used in the treatment of mild autism [AUT via DW]

    13-27 - Beta Range (according to [NSS]) - Associated with focused attention towards external stimuli, alert mental activity, normal waking consciousness, & active thought processes. [NSS via DW]

    13-30 - Beta Range - Normal wakefulness, the taking in & evaluating of various forms of data received through the senses. It's present with worry, anger, fear, hunger & surprise. [x] Waking state, motivation, outer awareness, survival, problem solving, arousal, dendrite growth, combats drowsiness [SS]; Conscious Thinking, Autonomic Processes & Emotions [EH]

  • [NSS] considers Beta to be 13-27 HZ, [AWI] considers it 14-38 HZ, [PWM] & [RA] consider it 13-40 HZ, and [VUG] (seems to) consider it 14-30 HZ.

  • [NEU] breaks up Beta into ranges - Low Beta=12-15 HZ, Mid Beta=15-18 HZ, & High Beta=18.0+ HZ.

    13-40 Beta Range (according to [RA] + [PWM]) - a high frequency pattern, conducive to stimulating energy + action; most of our current institutionalized education is beta geared, characterized by logical, analytical, intellectual thinking, verbal communication, etc. [PWM via DW]

    13.0 - Alleged sphincter resonance (mechanical)(not good) [TB]; Associated with Brow/Ajna chakra (Color=Indigo/Violet) (Body Parts =Pituitary,Lower Brain, Left Eye, Ears, Nose, Nervous System)(Effects =Visualization, Conceptualization)(Note=A) [OML]

    13.8 - Associated with Frontal Lobes (Effects=the seventh sense, final decision) [TOS]

    14-16 - associated with sleep spindles on EEG during second stage of sleep [EQ] [note SS said 10-14]

    14-15 - Slows conditioned reflexes [SS]

    14.0-30.0 - Beta Range (?I think? according to VUG) - This pattern is optimal for intense mental activities such as calculations, linear logical analyses & other highly structured functions [VUG via DW]

    14.0 - Awake & alert [??]; Alert focusing, vitality, concentration on tasks [SS?]; Schumann Resonance (2nd of 7 frequencies. 7.83 HZ being the first) [TS+HSW]; pituitary stimulation to release growth hormone (helps develop muscle, recover from injuries, rejuvenation effects) [HSW]; Intelligence Enhancement in conjunction with 22.0 HZ (medium =audio-visual stimulation) [APE]

  • [APE] used audio-visual stimulation alternating between 14 & 22 HZ. Check the link under [APE]'s bibliography entry for more information.

    14.1 "Earth Resonance" [SS]; Earth Harmonics - accelerated healing [DIV] (probably tied to Schumann Resonance above.)

    15.0-18.0 Beta (mid) - increased mental ability, focus, alertness, IQ [NEU]

    15-24 Euphoria [SS]

  • I will vouch for this one - I find binaurally produced tones between 18 HZ & 21 HZ have very pleasant results, in a jogger's high sort of way. This effect seems the strongest around 20 HZ. While other sources equate this frequency range with stress, I'm thinking it might be like the roar of a car engine - in small doses, it can be quite a rush, but too much of it can lead to a headache. The serotonin system is funny like that. [MPT]

    15 - chronic pain [MB]; Sound which bypasses the ears for sublimination (auditory cortex) [RA]; Associated with Crown/Sahasrara chakra (Color =Violet/White) (Body Parts=Pineal, Upper Brain, Right Eye)(Effects =Integration of personality & spirituality.)(Note=B) [OML]

    16.0 - bottom limit of normal hearing [MP2]; Release oxygen & calcium into cells [CC]

    16.4 Associated with top of head (Effects=spirit, liberation, transcendence) [TOS]

    18.0-22.0 - Beta: outward awareness, sensory data [??] ; Throws brain's sodium/potassium levels out of balance, resulting in mental fatigue. [INT]; Theoretically can be used to achieve a "relaxed body/focus mind" state of consciousness [DW]

  • [INT] + [DW] seem to contradict each other here.

    18.0 Beta (high) - fully awake, normal state of alertness, stress & anxiety [NEU]; Significant improvements in memory, reading & spelling are reported (in conjunction with 10 HZ) [RUS via DW]; (used to) improve hyperactive behavior [PWM via DW]

    20-30 Phospene imagery, peak luminosity in visual field [SS]

    20-40 Meditation For Stress Relief/Just At The Edge Of Audible Sound/As A Musical Backround [RA]

    20.215 LSD-25 [PSI] (he implies it could mimic the effects of)

    20.3 "Earth Resonance" [SS]

  • Probably the same thing as the Schumann Resonance at 20 HZ.

    22.0 Used in conjunction with 14 HZ for intelligence enhancement (medium =audio-visual stimulation)[APE]; Used in conjunction with 40 HZ for 'out of body' travel [EWI via DW]; Also used with 40 HZ for psychic healing. [FAH via DW]

  • [APE] used audio-visual stimulation alternating between 14 and 22 HZ. Check the link under [APE]'s bibliography entry for more information.

    22.027 Serotonin [PSI] (he's unclear what he means by this)

    25.0 Bypassing the eyes for images imprinting (visual cortex) [RA]; Tested clinically with patients who complain of anxiety [PGS via DW]

    26.0 Schumann Resonance (4th frequency of 7) [TS+HSW]; Pituitary stimulation to release growth hormone (helps develop muscle, recover from injuries, rejuvenation effects) [HSW]

    26.4 "Earth Resonance" [SS]

    27.5 lowest note on a piano [MP2]

    30 Meg Patterson used for marijuana. [MB3]

    30 - 60 Gamma Range - little known but includes decision making in a fear situation, muscle tension, [EH]

  • [INT] considers Gamma to start at 40 HZ.

    30 - 190 Lumbago [AT]

    30-500 High Beta: Not associated currently with any state of mind. Some effects have been observed, but currently not enough research has been done in this area, to prove, or disprove, anything.; a few people able to replicate at will (?? - not sure what that last point means)

  • Starting at 30 HZ, sources begin to seriously disagree over what the names of each range are.

  • [EH] considers 30 to be the beginning of the Gamma range, which it believes run to 60. It then considers 60 to 120 to be the Lambda range.

  • Incidentally, [INT] believes that 40 is where Beta ends & Gamma begins.

    31.32 Schumann Resonance (5th frequency of 7) - pituitary stimulation to release growth hormone (helps develop muscle, recover from injuries, rejuvenation effects) [HSW]

  • [HSW] is a bit off from the other sources on the exact value of this overtone of the Schumann Resonance.

    32 Desensitizer; enhanced vigour & alertness [MB]

    33 Christ consciousness, hypersensitivity, Pyramid frequency (inside) ; Schumann Resonance (5th frequency of 7) [TS]

  • Funky coincidence it lines up with the Christ Consciousness & Pyramid frequency, eh? I've had some interesting results with this one -- particularly when I overlap waves at 9.0 HZ (pyramid outside frequency). The mind tends to wander in funny ways.

    35 - 150 Fractures [AT]

    35 - 193 Arthralgy [AT]

    35 Awakening of mid-chakras, balance of chakras

    36 - 44 Learning Frequencies, When [Actively] Studying Or Thinking. Helps To Maintain Alertness. Waking Operating State [RA]; Frequencies of the olfactory bulb, prepiriform cortex & amygdala [DSH via DW]

    38 Endorphin release [WL]

    39.0 Schumann Resonance [6th frequency of 7] [TS]

    40-60 anxiolytic effects & stimulates release of beta-endorphines [MB]

    43 - 193 Carcinomatosis [AT]

    40.0 - dominant when problem solving in fearful situations. [EQ] ; Gamma - associated with information-rich task processing & high-level information processing [NEU]; "'For scientists who study the human brain, even its simplest act of perception is an event of astonishing intricacy. 40 Hz brain activity may be a kind of binding mechanism', said Dr. Rodolfo Llinas a professor of neuroscience at New York University. Llinas believes that the 40-cycle-per-second wave serves to connect structures in the cortex where advanced information processing occurs, and the thalamus, a lower brain region where complex relay & integrative functions are carried out." [NME via NEU]; Used in conjunction with 22 HZ for 'out of body' travel [EWI via DW]; Also used with 22 HZ for psychic healing. [FAH via DW]; "40--Hz activity varies from 38.8 to 40.1-Hz, regardless of the electrode site. The average frequency is in the ~39.5-Hz range. In summary, when the body is profoundly relaxed & the mind is in a state of high focus and concentration, 20 & 40-Hz brain activity can be seen in the raw and quantitative EEG of some subjects. It is possible that 18 to 22-Hz Beta & possibly 40-Hz neurofeedback training may help create a "relaxed body/focused mind" state of consciousness." [DW]; Activity in the ectosylvian & lateral cortex, medial geniculate, reticular formation, center median thalamus & hippocampus [ROW via DW]; Confirming Sheer et al.'s work,compared the EEG of middle- & high-I.Q. subjects during mental multiplication activity. A 40-Hz rhythm occurred just prior to the subject's answering the question. Forty--Hz pulses are thought to lead to synchronization + coordination of neurons assigned to the processing of incoming sensory stimulation. Put in "computerese," 40-Hz may be the brain's "operating system" frequency [GIA via DW]

  • Considered the dividing point between beta waves + gamma waves, although there's some disagreement about this. [INT] http://brain.web-us.com/40hz/default.htm

    45.0 Schumann Resonance (7th frequency of 7)[TS]

    46.98 - Useful for "weird effects" (use with 62.64 HZ and 70.47 HZ) [TB]

  • [TB] gets the award for most ambiguous description. Although, I'm including it since it's a very specific frequency. I'll research it further and try to dig up some additional information.

    50-60 Documented negative effects too numerous to mention There is no correlation given with signal strength or modality used, i.e. audio-visual, EMF, magnetic, electrostatic, gravitic. Also, most ELF research is now Govt classified, particularly since the mid-1960's when Hamer discovered behavioral effects as the result of applied sinusoidal field gradients as low as 4 volts. [SS via DW]

    50.0 - dominant frequency of polyphasic muscle activity, mains electrical in U.K. [EQ]; Slower cerebral rhythms [??]

    55.0 - Tantric yoga; stimulates the kundalini. [x]

    60 - 120 Lambda Range - Little known but includes central nervous system activity [EH]

    60 electric power lines

    62.64 - Useful for "weird effects". (use with 46.98 HZ and 70.47 HZ) [TB]

    63 Astral projection [x]

    65.8 Associated with coccyx (small triangular bone at end of the spinal column) (higher octave of 2.06 HZ) [TOS]

    70-9,000 Voice spectrum [MP1]

    70 Mental & astral projection ; Endorphin production/used with electroanalgesia. [VPL]

    70.47 Useful for "weird effects". (use with 46.98 HZ and 62.64 HZ) [TB]

    72 Emotional spectrum [??]; Used on sinusitis/sinus infection/head cold [RS]

    73.6 Associated with genitals (higher octave of 2.30 HZ) [TOS]

    80 Awareness & control of right direction. Appears to be involved in stimulating 5-hydroxytryptamine production, with 160Hz. Combine with 2.5 Hz. [EQ]

    82.3 Associated with bladder (higher octave of 2.57 HZ) [TOS]

    83 Third eye opening for some people

    85.5 Associated with intestines (higher octave of 2.67 HZ) [TOS]

    90.0 - 111.0 Pleasure-producing beta-endorphins rise between these frequencies. [PSI]

  • In the MIDI scale, the notes that would fall in this range begin with F#3 and go up to A3. ["A3" being the fourth octave up -- since there's an A0, and A1, A2 lower than it.] Playing the F#3 and the A3 as a chord seems to function as a good painkiller. An additional undertone in the alpha range of frequencies sometimes helps too. [Try adding a tone around 12.5 HZ].

    90.0 Good feelings, security, well-being, balancing [??]

    95.0-125.0 Acoustical Resonances of Assorted Ancient Structures [ACS via DW]

    95.0 Use for pain along with 3040 HZ [ESR]

    98.4 Associated with hara (3cm or 1.5 inch below navel, balance of pelvis) (higher octave of 3.07 HZ) [TOS]

    100 Can help with pain [used with electrical stimulation] [CMP]

  • The site specifically mentions it can be good for pain initially, but then recommends using 0.5 or 1.5 to treat pain.

    105 Overall view of complete situation

    108 Total knowing

    110.0 Frequency associated with stomach. [Note=A] [BH1][BH4]; Associated with ovaries (Effects=vitality, life at very level) (higher octave of 3.84 HZ) [TOS]

    120 - 500 P.S.I., moving of objects, changing matter, transmutation, psychokinesis

    120 Helps with fatigue (Medium=pad)[JB]; (used on) sinus disorders/sinus infection/head cold [RS]

    125 Graham potentializer; Stimulation [MH]; (used on) sinusitis [RS]

    126.22 - Sun, 32nd octave of Earth year [HC]; The Frequency Of The Sun ( Note=C) (Color=Green) (Tempo=118.3 BPM) (Chakra=Manipura, also called Hara {associated with Navel & 3rd lumbar vertebrae}) (Effects=advances the feeling of centering of magic & of the transcendental) [ HC/Planetware website]

  • There seems to be a little disagreement between [HC] & [HC/Planetware] over what exactly this is the frequency of - [HC] ties this into the period it takes the earth to revolve around the sun, while [HC/Planetware] says this is the frequency it would take an imaginary planet to orbit the outside edge of the sun. My money is on the second, since there is another frequency that is given for the Earth year. (136.1 HZ)

  • This is tricky to paraphrase, so here it is as it appeared on the Planetware website :

    "Meditation carried out to this tone will lead to state beyond good and bad, shame and guilt, beyond space and time, knowledge and wisdom, action and rest an being and not-being. It leads to a state where being has no name, to a state where the all-one and the all encompassing are no longer separate entities but are reunited at their one common origin, the origin that is also you."

    132.0 Associated with kidneys (Effects=strength) (higher octave of 4.11 HZ) [TOS]; Associated with coccyx (small triangular bone at end of the spinal column) (higher octave of 2.06 HZ) [TOS]

    136.1 Sun: light, warmth, joy, animus [RV]; Resonates with the earth year (Note=C#) (Color=Turqouise Green) (Effects=calming, meditative, relaxing, centering) [PSI]; Period it takes earth to revolve around sun (Tempo=63.8*127.6) (Chakra=Anahate/Heart chakra)(Effects=relaxing, soothing, balancing, harmony with the cosmos, associated with the soul {"frequency of the soul}) (Medicinal=Sedative) (Other=significant tone in Indian music {called it the "sadja" or "father to others" - it was a keynote} - corresponds to "OM" & the Christian "AMEN") [HC/Planetware website]

  • Note : [PSI] seems to disagree a bit with the original source on the list. [PSI] says this one calms/centers, while the original source seems to associate it with happiness. Also some disagreement between [RV] and [HC/Planetware], once associating this with the sun, and the other associating this with the frequency with the earth year. I suppose you could associate the earth year with the sun, since it's the time it takes the earth to go around the sun, but 126.22 HZ uses "frequency of the sun" in a little different context. See the comments with that frequency for more.

    140.25 Pluto: power, crisis & changes [??]; Frequency associated with the orbit of Pluto; (Note=C#) (Color=blue-green) (Tempo=65.7 * 131.4 BPM) (Effects = support the magic group dynamic principle and is said to be responsible for integration into certain structures of society) [ HC/Planetware website]

    141.27 Mercury: intellectuality, mobility [??]; Frequency associated with orbit of Mercury (Note=C# or D) (Color=blue-green or blue) (Tempo =66.2) (Chakra=Vishudda/Throat chakra) (Effects=Supports speech center and communicative-intellectual principle, associated with communication and cleverness) [HC/Planetware]

  • [HC/Planetware] says the frequencies of planets revolving around the sun are less important than those of the moon, sun, and Earth.

  • Again, I'm not sure how [HC/planetware] is associating these frequencies with these chakras. {shrugs}

  • A discrepancy in the note and color - they're both given twice - once as C# and blue-green, the second time as D and blue.

  • [HC/Planetware] and [BH] seem to associate different frequencies with the revolutions of each planet - these frequencies are determined by HC/Planetware by taking higher octaves of the actual period - octaves that are in the audible range. [BH] might use even higher octaves than [HC/Planetware] does, or some other method completely.

    144.0 (helps with) headaches (Medium=pad)[JB]

    144.72 Mars: activity, energy, freedom, humor [??] ; Frequency associated with the orbit of Mars (Note=D) (Color=blue) (Tempo=67.8 * 135.6 BPM) (Effect : Supports strength of will and focused energy, ability for achievement) [HC/Planetware]

    147.85 Saturn: separation, sorrow, death [??]; Frequency associated with orbit of Saturn (Note=D) (Color=Blue) (Tempo=69.3 * 138.6 BPM) (Effects =enhances concentration and the process of becoming conscious + shows very clearly karmic connections, brings structure and order - is considered to be a cosmic controller) [HC/Planetware]

  • I'm not completely sure what the dual tempo means. I'll have to research that further.

    160.0 Appears to be involved in stimulating 5-hydroxytryptamine production, with 80 Hz. [EQ]; Use for rapid relief from headaches [ESR]; used on sinus infection/head cold [RS]

    164.3 Frequency associated with Gall Bladder [Note=E] [BH1][BH4]

    165.0 Associated with stomach (Effects=Emotional Acceptance) (higher octave of 5.14 HZ) [TOS]; Associated with bladder (higher octave of 2.57 HZ) [TOS]

    171.0 Associated with lungs (Effects=Oxygen, Heat) (higher octave of 5.35 HZ) [TOS]; Associated with intestines (higher octave of 2.67 HZ) [ TOS]

    172.06 - Resonates with the Platonic year {about 26,000 years} (Note=F) (Color=purple-violet) (Effects=joyful, cheerful, spiritual effect) [PSI]; The Frequency Of The Platonic Year (Color=red-violet {purple}) ( Tempo=80.6 BPM) (Chakra=Sahasrar/Crown chakra) (Effects=cheerfulness, clarity of spirit, cosmic unity on highest levels) (Medicinal =antidepressive) (Other=F is considered the tone of the spirit, and had a lot of significance to the Chinese)

  • Other sources [PM] disagree about the tone F being associated with the Crown chakra, which is how HC/Planetware connects this frequency to the crown chakra. [PM] considers the crown chakra to be associated with the B note, and not F.

    176.0 - Frequency associated with the colon. [Note=F or F#] [BH1][BH4]

    183.58 - Jupiter: growth, success, justice, spirituality [??] ; Frequency associated with the orbit of Jupiter (Note=F#) (Color=Red) ( Tempo=86.05 * 172.1 BPM) (Effects : supports creative power and continuous construction) (Associated with Jupiter : Generosity, Continuity, Magnanimity, Joviality) [HC/planetware website]

    185.0 - (used on) sinus infection/head cold [RS]

    187.61 frequency of "moon culmination" ; [HC/planetware website]

    194.18 frequency of Synodic "Earth" Day {the "day tone"} (Note=G) (Color =Orange Red) (Tempo=91.0 BPM) (Chakra=Muladhar/Base chakra) (Effects = dynamic, vitalizing)(Medicinal="tonifies") (Other="weather determining" spheric frequency, influences proteins, brings one into harmony with nature") [HC/planetware website]

  • Note : By "weather determining", [HC/planetware] seems to imply that somebody tuned into this frequency may be able to predict the weather in the short-term future. I'm just a little, little bit skeptical of this one, but if anybody has any luck with it, let me know.

  • I'm not sure how [HC/planetware] is associating these chakras to these frequencies. It doesn't seem to be based on the note, since G isn't the note typically associated with the base chakra [per PM]. The associations might tie in with something astrological instead. {shrugs}.

    194.71 - Earth: stability, grounding [??]; Key Of G resonates with frequency of earth day, the color orange-red, & has a dynamic, stimulating, and energizing effect on the body-mind. [PSI]

  • There seems to be some disagreement between [PSI] and the original source for this list. [PSI] associates this frequency with energizing, while the original source associates it with stability/grounding.

  • I think this one, and the one right below it [197.71 HZ] might be based on the same thing. One source might have done a typo, and then other sources based their information from that.

    197.0 Associated with heart (Effects=love,warmth) (higher octave of 6.15) [TOS]; Associated with hara (3cm or 1.5 inch below navel, balance of pelvis) (higher octave of 3.07 HZ) [TOS]

    197.71 frequency of Sideric Day ; [HC/planetware website]

    332.8 - Frequency associated with orbit of Sun (Note=E) [BH2]

  • When [BH2] says the "orbit of the sun", I believe she means how long it would take an imaginary planet to orbit around the sun's outer boundary [circumfrence]. This is how [HC/planetware] made this calculation - the period is then lowered a few octaves to get it into the audible sound range. That's how [HC/planetware] does most of its calculations, and probably how [BH] does it as well. [HC/planetware], when lowering [or in the case of planets raising] the octave, seems to gun for lower tones than [BH] does. The [HC/planetware] tones would be a little "bassier". Which is probably why the frequencies of all these astronomical phenomena that [HC/planetware] gives doesn't line up with the frequencies that [BH] gives.

    Brainwave Frequency Listing - Glossary

    Adrenal - An organ located above the kidneys - it manufactures a natural steroid called cortisol, which is associated with stress.

    Amygdala - This is a pair of structures that exist an inch or so in from the forehead - there's one on the right side and one on the left side - they supposedly have an impact on moods. (The right one is active when a person is depressed, and the left one is active when a person is cheerful.) Also, they are associated with fear, and the "fight or flight" response.

    Astral Projection - In a nutshell, it's a kind of out of body experience. I don't want to bog the definition down with a lot of details. (I've never astrally projected, myself - so I can't really vouch for it one way or the other.)

    Binaural Beats - A technique used with brainwave entrainment that allows a person to perceive tones that are below the range of human hearing (or pretty damn close to it.) For a more elaborate explanation, read the definition for Brainwave Entrainment in its entirety.

    Brainwave Entrainment - This is using stimulii (such as sound, light, or EM fields) to influence the rate of our brainwaves, which in the process affects our mental state.

    Our brain plays "monkey see/monkey do" with stimulii in the proximity. If you have lights flashing at 4 cycles a second, our brain will begin to mimic that with its own brainwaves. When our brainwaves are at a certain frequency, our body will do whatever it normally would do -- we normally produce brainwaves of 4 cycles a second when we're sleeping - so pulsating light at this rate would put a person to sleep.

    Say you want to do this with sound instead of pulsating light - since most brainwave entrainment frequencies are below 30 HZ, and are often below human hearing range, you (usually) can't just generate the tones using a wave generator. There are two methods that are typically used to generate these ultra-low tones in a way that humans can perceive them and feel their effects :

    1) Binaural Beats - Using a computer or synthesizer (and a good pair of stereo headphones), generate two tones, one in the left ear, one in the right - your brain imagines it hears a third tone equal to the difference between the two tones. (For instance, if you had a 400 HZ tone in one ear, and a 404 HZ tone in the other, you would perceive a third tone of 4 HZ.) And this would have the same effects that a pulsating light at 4 cycles per second would. In order for this to work, the two tones need to be below 1000 HZ. There are two good programs for creating Binaural Beats : CoolEdit from Syntrillium Software and Brainwave Generator. The latter is probably the most user-friendly, and is good for people new to brainwave entrainment, since it has presets that come with it. (I found it to work very well, since it incorporates a strobe light into the mix as well.)

    2) Modulation - While a tone at 4 HZ would be too low to hear by itself, if you generate noise and then fluctuate its pitch or volume at 4 times each second, this can also be used for brainwave entrainment, and would affect us the same way a 4 HZ binaural would. CoolEdit from Syntrillium Software is the best software to use with this method. (Although, he uses a slightly more complicated technique than just fluctuating the pitch or volume.)

    As far as which of these two methods are better - binaural beats probably work better for brainwave entrainment, but the second method will work from speakers - headphones aren't required. That can come in handy - especially when you want to experiment with brainwave entrainment while sleeping or meditating - ever tried falling asleep wearing headphones? I have a cordless pair, and even with those, it's not that comfortable.

    (And if that's not enough information about Brainwave Entrainment, check out the Brainwave Entrainment links for even more.)

    Brainwave Ranges - In talking about brainwaves, they are typically broken up into ranges, each range being associated with different mental states. The five common brainwave ranges are listed below (although I really simplify what they're associated with here - for more specific mental states these ranges are associated with, consult the brainwave frequency list itself.)

    Delta Range - 0.5 to 4 HZ (associated with deep sleep)

    Theta Range - 4 HZ to 8 HZ (seen in dreaming sleep, and other mental states where the mind is wandering, like daydreaming and imagining)

  • "A person .. driving on a freeway & discovers .. they can't recall the last five miles, is often in a theta state--induced by the process of freeway driving .. [It's] .. a state where tasks become so automatic .. you can mentally disengage from them." http://brain.web-us.com/brainwavesfunction.htm

    Alpha Range - 8 to 13 HZ (relaxed but awake)

    Beta Range - 13 HZ to 30 (??) HZ (normal awake state/aware)

    Gamma Range - 30 (??) HZ to 60 (??) HZ (associated with consciousness - the brain stops producing gamma waves when we're put under for anaesthesia, for example)

  • "Gamma rhythms appear to be involved in higher mental activity, including perception and consciousness. It seems to be associated with consciousness, eg it disappears with general anaesthesia .. Synchronous activity at about 40Hz appears to be involved in binding sensory inputs into the single, unitary object we perceive." [INT] http://brain.web-us.com/40hz/default.htm

    Note that there's a LOT of disagreement over where Beta range ends and Gamma range begins. (hence the question marks)

    Also, some sources will take it and break it down further, into "high beta" & "low beta" or "Theta1" & "Theta2", for example. And there are a couple other ranges like Epsilon, Lambda & Sigma that some sources throw in to the mix that really aren't as commonly used.

    Clairvoyance - the alleged power of seeing things not present to the senses. (from a dictionary I own - unfortunately the cover and cover pages got lost a long time ago, so I'm not sure which one it is.)

    Christ Consciousness - it seems to be a similar concept to the "Holy Spirit" of Christianity. Edgar Cayce mentions it quite a few times.

    Cortisol - It's a natural steroid which is produced in the adrenal cortex (located above the kidneys) which both inhibits the immune system and has anti-inflammatory effects. It's also associated with stress and aging. (It's released in response to stress.) Reducing cortisol production in theory could be used for anti-aging effects. Increasing it could be helpful for people with allergies, where the immune system is going bonkers over a foreign agent in the body which is usually harmless - it's not the agent itself which causes the allergic reaction, but the inflammation caused by the immune system attacking the hell out of it. If you can eliminate this misfiring of the immune system, in theory, you can eliminate the allergic reaction.

    Cymatics - The study of the effects of sound on matter - I use it as a very loose term to cover sound frequencies that claim to effect matter or human biology in some way.

    DHEA - A hormone manufactured in the Adrenals, just above the kidneys - production of it starts off slow in early childhood, and then begins to pick up, hitting its maximum when a person is in his/her 20s, and then it declines from there. It's not completely known what this hormone does - although many claims are associated with it [anti-aging, AIDS therapy, anti-cancer, increased sex drive, weight loss, muscle gain, etc]. This site has a lot of useful information on DHEA - http://www.quackwatch.com/01QuackeryRelatedTopics/dhea.html

    Endogenous Opiates - A family of chemicals the brain produces that serve as pain-killers, and also help to reduce anxiety and fear. This family includes Endorphins, Ekephalins, and Dynorphins. (Paraphrased from : http://www.xrefer.com/entry/149561)

    Endorphins - These are chemicals the brain generates that regulate pain. (the right sort of endorphins serve as natural pain killers.)

    Enkephalins - Like endorphins, these are chemicals the brain generates that can serve as natural pain killers.

    Excretion - The process of removing waste products of cellular metabolism from the body. Source : http://gened.emc.maricopa.edu/bio/bio181/BIOBK/BioBookglossE.html

    Frontal Lobe - The frontal lobe is one of the five lobes of the cortex and its primarily function is recieving input from the rest of the brain, planning, organizing, problem solving, selective attention, personality, motor control, and a variety of higher cognitive functions, including behavior and emotions. Source : http://pbl.cc.gatech.edu:8080/mindy/377

    Hippocampus - Simple definition - A part of the brain that is required to form long term memories. If we took that part of the brain out, short term memories could still be formed, and memories stored would still be there, but no new long term memories could be formed. For more information, visit this site, scrolling about midway down the page.

    Hypersonic Sounds - sounds above human hearing. while not audible to humans directly, can "affect the acoustic perception of audible sounds .. Psychological evaluation indicated that the subjects felt the sound containing an HFC to be more pleasant than the same sound lacking an HFC." From : http://jn.physiology.org/cgi/content/abstract/83/6/3548

    Hypnagogic State - This is the state where a person is right on the brink between being awake and being asleep. It's often accompanied by sleep paralysis, and some believe it to be the state a person needs to be in to have out of body experiences.

    Hypnopompic State - Similar to the Hypnagogic State, except where the Hypnagogic State happens while in the process of falling asleep, the Hypnopompic State happens while coming out of sleep.

    Hypothalamus - "The hypothalamus is generally very active in regulating our primary instincts and emotional responses. The instincts for basic survival, fight or flight, mating, eating, and drinking, are all regulated right here. It is very easy to evoke an intense rage or pleasure response by stimulating the hypothalamus." (This definition is from this article.)

    Infratonic Qui Gong Machine - The Infratonic QGM was developed out of scientific research in Beijing China which studied natural healers and found that most powerful healers were able to emit a strong infrasonic (low frequency sound) signal from their hands. The sound emitted from average individuals was only a hundredth as strong. The Infratonic, now used by 1% of all doctors in the United States, was developed out of this research. http://exo.com/~chi/ch02000.html

    Kundalini - A very general description - Kundalini is some sort of mystical energy or force that exists at your base, and during a Kundalini awakening, makes its way up from your base into your forehead region. Supposedly, if people aren't "ready" for a kundalini awakening, it can really mess them up. There are forms of yoga that help to stimulate the kundalini. (I've never had any experience with any of this - but I feel the need to include a definition though, since it's mentioned in the frequency list and it's not a common word.) Here's some more info : http://www.geocities.com/freeyourbrain/nofire.htm

    "Life energy" frequency - 10 PHZ (PETAHERTZ) "This was probably the frequency used by the Russian scientist Vlail P. Kaznacheyev in his experiment. The result of the experiment, the Kaznacheyev effect, is that if a cell culture is killed or injured, and the "death" photons from it are sent to another culture, which in the absence of visible light (which would quench the paranormal effects, see the above mentioned Excalibur Briefing), suffers the same effects." [MM]

    Lucid Dreaming - A form of dreaming where you are consciously aware that you are dreaming, and can control your actions in the dream, and in some cases, even control the environment of the dream itself.

    Lymphocytes - Simple definition - these are a sort of white blood cell that help fend off foreign cells and other unwanted things that have "invaded" the body. It's the lymphocytes that sometimes cause a body to reject a transplanted organ, for instance, and they're sometimes responsible for allergic reactions as well.

    Magic Window - Frequencies which (according to Thomas E. Bearden) are especially suited for coupling to and bringing energies from other dimensions. [EX via MM] Another source seems to imply such frequencies could be used to communicate from one dimension to another. (As you can see - this is kind of venturing into the realm of new-agey pseudo-science, but I wouldn't rule it out for that reason alone - much of what we take for granted today in science was seen as pseudo-scientific at one point.) The range of frequencies that most of these magic windows fall under are well above human hearing - more than likely, they are intended to be 'accessed' using electromagnetic means (a device that creates an EM field). Although, if you're up for a challenge, you could try lowering the octave of these frequencies (i.e. dividing the number by two) until you reach a point where you're in the range of audible sound, and then try plugging that frequency into a sound generator.

    Melantonin - A hormone produced by the pineal gland in the brain - it helps to promote normal sleep patterns. [TM] also mentions that it can decrease the aging process. Another source says it can create very vivid dreams.

    Neuralgias - A simple definition - a condition that causes brief episodes of stabbing pain between the eyes and ears.

    Norepinephrine - A natural chemical the body generates which acts as a vaso-constrictor [constricts blood vessels]. It also increases heartrate & blood pressure, and opens up the air passages in the lungs. It is generated in response to short-term stress, and serves to mobilize the body's resources in order to meet the stressful challenge.

  • (Paraphrased from : http://www.encyclopedia.com/articles/09326.html)

    Octave - Okay, a very simple definition. Ready? "do, re, mi, fa, so, la, ti, do". The two do's are an octave apart. The second "do" is a higher octave of the first "do". The first "do" is a lower octave of the second "do". The significance of octaves is that they are the same note - the only difference is the pitch. So, for any of the (sound) frequencies on this list, higher and lower octaves in theory could have the same effects that the original frequency does.

    Determining higher and lower octaves of a frequency is a piece of cake - just double or half the number. Higher octaves of 7.0 HZ, for instance, would be 14.0, 28.0, 56.0, etc. You can keep going until infinity - just keep on doubling it.

    One use for this is to bring frequencies that are below hearing range to a point where it is an audible sound - this is how a lot of the "planetary" tones were calculated. They determined the fraction of a revolution a planet would go through in a second, and then kept doubling the number until they got to an octave that was an audible tone.

    It also can be used to bring frequencies above the human hearing range to the point where they're an audible sound - instead of doubling the number, half it instead until you reach an octave that is within human hearing range.

    Phosphene Imagery - The funky pattern/haze you get when you rub your eyes.

    Pineal - a tiny organ in the brain [about the size of a pea] that helps to regulate sleeping patterns in mammals [i.e. circadian rhythm], as well as seasonal changes. It is sensitive to light - in the absence of light, it produces a hormone (melantonin) that makes us sleep. Functionally, it is the closest thing we have to a "third eye".

    Rife frequency - Rife was a fellow who tinkered with using electromagnetic fields at certain frequencies to cure/treat various ills. The frequency set of 20 HZ, 727 HZ, 787 HZ, 800 HZ, 880 HZ, 5000 HZ, and 10000 HZ were used for general treatment across the board, and other frequencies were then added to treat specific conditions.

    While Rife's frequencies were generated using electromagnetic means - some of the "mental state" entries for Rife may work using a sound medium, since brainwave entrainment can be done with any periodic phenomena, whether it be light [strobe lights], sound [ocean waves,binaural beats,etc], EM fields [from appliances], vibration [those funky massaging contraptions they sell], or even motion [rocking a baby to sleep].

    I don't have every Rife frequency that exists on this page - really, I doubt a frequency to treat something like scoliosis or rectal itching would be very useful to many people, and would only serve to take up a lot of space - if you're looking for frequencies to treat very specific diseases, this page looks like it has every frequency ever used by Rife or any of the researchers who played around with the same sort of thing : Turf's Electroherbalism Page / frequency listing archives.

    Samadhi - The state of being aware of one's existence without thinking. Definition from + More Info at : http://www.self-realization.com/samadhi.htm

    Schumann resonance - A simple definition - EM field generated by the earth's atmosphere when it's struck by energy from the sun - it can entrain brainwaves much as EM fields from appliances can, in theory. Here's some additional information.

  • A resonant cavity is formed between the ionosphere and the earth. Energy from sferics or other sources may excite this natural resonator to ring at about 8 Hz. Special purpose receiver, can be home built. [from http://www.altair.org/natradio.htm]

  • The Schumann Resonances are actually observed by experiment to occur at several frequencies between 6 and 50 cycles per second, specifically 7.8, 14, 20, 26, 33, 39 and 45 Hertz, with a daily variation of about +/- 0.5 Hertz. [from http://www.innerx.net/personal/tsmith/Schumann.html ]

  • 7.83 is the strongest of the seven resonances, per http://www.danwinter.com/schumann/schumann.html

  • The amplitude (i.e. intensity) of the Schumann resonance is, however, not constant, and appears to be extremely dependent upon tropical (and hence global) temperature. Indeed preliminary results seem to indicate that a mere one degree increase in temperature seems to be correlated with a doubling of the Schumann resonance. This could not be more significant.
    http://www.dromo.com/fusionanomaly/schumannresonance.html

    Serotonin - A chemical in the brain which helps regulate moods - too little of it, and you can end up depressed. Too much of it can cause migraines and nausea. Just the right amount, and it's a great anti-depressant/mood elevator.

    Sleep, Deep Dreamless - Experts are finding that it's only during deep, dreamless sleep that the body restores itself, fixing wear and tear and building new skin, bone, and muscle. http://health.com/wynks/SleepDisWYNK2000-MAL/whatishappening.html

    Sphincter Resonance - In the 1960s, apparently, somebody discovered the resonating frequency of the sphincter. They created a device called an "Anal Sphincter Resonator" - an organ-like device. It was used in a suspense thriller play - they intended it to "shake up" the audience when danger was being acted out - apparently it caused the entire audience to soil themselves. (Click here for the original article.) (P.S. - I've also heard this referred to as a 'Brown Note'.)

    Synodic Month - Middle period from one new moon to the next.

    Thalamus - A component of the brain that acts as a 'routing center' for all sensory information that comes up the spinal cord from the body. Drugs that shut down the Thalmus are often used for anesthetic effects. (This definition came from this article.)

    Thyroid - A butterfly-shaped gland just below the Adam's apple which controls the body's metabolism - it does this by producing thyroid hormones, which tell the body how fast to work and use energy. http://www.the-thyroid-society.org/faq/

Ibison (1996) "Rudimentary acoustical measurements performed inside six diverse Neolithic structures revealed that each sustained a strong resonance at a frequency between 95 and 120 Hz. Despite major differences in chamber shapes and sizes, the resonant modal patterns all featured strong antinodes at the outer walls, with appropriately configured nodes and antinodes interspersed toward the central source. In some cases, interior and exterior rock drawings resembled these acoustical patterns. Since the resonant frequencies are well within the adult male voice range, one may speculate that some forms of human chanting, enhanced by the cavity resonance, were invoked for ritual purposes." http://www.princeton.edu/~pear/Order_29.html

    MPT Hey, this denotes the frequencies I calculated by myself for the revolutions of the various asteroids. I'm not going to claim said tones have some funky new-age meaning, although they would be the actual "tones" of the asteroid's revolution, risen to a high enough octave to be heard as a sound. I generated the frequencies of the asteroids using the following method :

  • Step 1) Find a table that gives the revolution times of the asteroids (most give them in years). Here's one : http://supernova7.apsc.csi.cuny.edu/res-tabl.html

  • Step 2) Divide 1 by the number of years an asteroid takes to complete a revolution. (This will give you the fraction of a revolution it completes in one year.)

  • Step 3) Divide by 365 (to get value into days). Then divide by 24 (to get value into hours). Then divide by 60 (to get value into minutes). And divide by 60 again (to get value into seconds).

  • Step 4) So, you're left with the amount of the revolution an asteroid completes in one second. Since this frequency is very small, you need to raise it until its into the range of audio sound. Now, begin doubling the number - this raises the octave of it. Higher octaves have a higher pitch, but are the same note. Keep doubling the value until it's 100 HZ or higher. (I find sometimes lower-pitched tones have more impact than the higher-pitched ones, which can drive you bonkers if they're -too- high.)
