The Music of The Spheres

[ecosophian]

In the recent Magic Monday, an anonymous user asked a question about the music of the sun, that can be used for attuning oneself to planetary energies. I decided to put all the information about the music of the planets into a neat little table with links to YouTube videos.

I welcome additions and suggestions to edit this list. Obviously, some things are subjective.

Big thanks to Kimberly Steele for her contributions!

Nice!

I'm curious where would you put Erik Satie's Gnossiennes? Perhaps Cancer?

[ecosophian]

You might be right, I'll put it under the Moon section, since the Moon rules Cancer.

Thank you for posting this, it indirectly caused me to research and compile some ancient Indian planetary devotional music on my blog out of curiosity how a different culture might approach the same project. The results are here: https://violetcabra.dreamwidth.org/351454.html
