Another part of the whole

I am sending out the wedding and soul chimes, pictured below, as special gifts to friends and family it dawned on me that they need to cleansed(with Sage) and chanted upon to totally purify the intent possessed within the chimes. I am going to ask Jeannine if she would do the cleansing for me. She is a yogini with a very beautiful voice and very pure heart.

Soul Chimes



Here are some chimes I built for a friend in honor of his friend's passing. It came to me that before I send the chimes out they need to be cleansed with Sage and chanted upon for purity. They are of Lacewood and Poplar painted purple. I was going to paint these impressively fancy but I passed as the only was inspiration was for simplicity. The color purple reflects the fundamental frequency of the chime.

Wedding Chimes



My brother in law Paul got married in Aug 2007 and I told them I would make them a chime as a gift. I did not have it really figured out back then, so I never built them. To create this set I took Paul and Christy's age from the day they were born until their wedding day. I then summed their ages and built a scale from the frequency representing their union. These chimes represent the harmony that brought them together. They will always have something to reflect upon through good times and tough times. Again I have used the 1-4-5 chord pattern. I will put up some more photos once the sun comes out.

Venus Chimes



Here are 3 of the chimes tuned to Venus. Again the pattern represents harmony with a 1-4-5 chord set up. I used 3/4" tubing for these. The song/tones gave me the " chicken skin, cuz." That is Hawaiian Pidgin for goosebumps. So much so that I had to build a set for myself.
