WORKING WITH PLANETARY INSTRUMENTS

When selecting instruments for a sound bath, you can take many different approaches. I find that setting an intention for the sound journey can help you choose what instruments you would like to use. Whether that’s creating a sound journey based on the chakras, exploring different octaves, or working with the planets.

STORYTELLING IN SOUND BATHS

My favourite aspect of working with planetary-tuned instruments is the ability to infuse symbolism and storytelling into the sound bath. Each planet brings a different story and message that can add meaningful insight for the person listening. For example, the Sun is often associated with energy and creativity, so could be ideal for a sound bath dedicated to new beginnings. The Earth is our home, and listening to its frequency helps us to feel grounded and connected to nature.

WORKING WITH THE EARTH COLLECTION

In this post, we are focusing on the Earth planetary collection. As mentioned above, the Earth connects us to feeling at home, grounded, and present. By using its symbolism, you can decide when and how to bring this sound into a treatment or sound bath, and which Earth frequency instrument you’d like to use for that.

EARTH CHIME

The Earth chime is a perfect way to begin or complete a sound bath. I would recommend striking this chime to open the space at the start of the journey, and set an intention to create rest, presence and harmony for the person receiving. At the end of the journey, I would strike the chime to bring the receiver back to the present, and for the sound to ground them as they reawaken. You can also try this with the Earth Tuning Fork.

EARTH SINGING BOWLS

The waves of sound produced by the Earth Crystal Singing Bowl make a powerful connection to the Earth as you listen to it. I would recommend playing this bowl in harmony with the Grounded Series Bowls to create an orchestra of earthy, grounding frequencies which will allow the receiver to feel deeply restored and relaxed. For a longer sound bath, you could also include the Earth Gong for a full ‘Earthing’ experience.

GROUNDING YOURSELF

If you’re a practitioner or someone who enjoys sound, you can use these instruments for yourself to help meditate and ground your energy. Take some time to be still and play one of the Earth frequency instruments to connect within. Find a quiet space, close your eyes, and simply listen as you feel the energy of the Earth strengthening you and grounding you home into your body.
