Earth's Resonant Frequencies, Sacred Sites and Acoustic Science of the Divine
~ Gwilda Wiyaka ~
Ancient sacred sites have long been a curiosity. We have studied the fascinating geometry of the structures, observed their alignment with solstices and equinoxes and pondered the meaning of their placement. But what about their acoustic capabilities?
As a young girl, I can still remember listening to a choir singing at Notre Dame Cathedral in France. Never before had music been so impactful. There seemed to be something about the structure that transformed sound into a full body, religious experience.
The next time I was exposed to such magic was as a teen experiencing Gregorian chants sung by monks of the Abbey of St Ottilien, in Germany. Though these were different structures in separate countries, the experience was the same – like bathing in the divine.
With us this hour to explore this mysterious acoustic phenomenon is
