I’m recording today’s message on 2/2/2025, also known as the 2/2 portal.  In the spiritual community the repeated sequence of 2’s is often a sign of balance, and harmony.  And boy, does this world need harmony right now!  Last night as I was scrolling through a few posts on social media, I was reminded of just how divided we’ve become as a society, as humans.  People siding with political polarity, those for/against certain ideaologies, placing blame for the events of this world, often before we even have all the facts!  It’s a signal to me that healing, now more than ever, is needed in our human collective at this time. 

So, in the spirit of this 2/2 portal I’m called to reflect on healing with harmony.  Harmony, for me, has a double meaning – certainly that of harmonious relationships however as a musician my thoughts equate harmony with frequency, resonance.  The entire universe around us is in a constant state of frequency – energy in motion creating wavelike vibrations.  Did you know, the first sensory organ to develop in humans is the inner ear?  Think about that for a moment, sounds and frequency are among the first sensory experiences that we have as humans in the womb.  And those frequencies or sounds have a profound impact on our development and overall wellbeing, both in the infancy stages but as well throughout the entirety of our lives.  Music, words, environmental sounds are literally shaping us from the moment of creation.  But, here’s the catch – depending on what you’re listening to, that frequency either creates harmony or discord in your life.  For those like me who enjoy the scientific lens of spirituality, I encourage you to research the works of Japanese scientist Dr. Masaru Emoto.  Dr. Emoto demonstrates the effects of positive v. negative sounds by speaking to beakers of water.  The water experiencing positive words and affirmations develops into beautiful geometric patterns, while the water experiencing negative talk or even neglect having of course a very opposite and negative effect.  The broader point here is that when we surround ourselves with positive frequency, positive sounds more specifically, – be it words of encouragement, uplifting music, messages of hope/joy our bodies respond in a healthy and positive way with harmony in resonance with the universe.  But if you are consumed with negative self-talk, or listening to negative news feeds, social media negativity and divisiveness then you will find your state of being in that of discord, unharmonious.  And from that state of being the universe has no choice but to bring you more negativity, worry, anxiety, depression because you’re tuning into that frequency within your world.  Our bodies are literally antennae sending and receiving frequency to and from the universe.  As human beings with free will, we have the choice to tune into the frequencies of harmony or discord.  So ask yourself, what am I tuned into?  Perhaps it’s time to “turn the channel” on the TV, Spotify, the car radio, social media and tune into sounds within nature, positive self-talk, laughter with friends/family, messages of inspiration, your favorite music and start to resonate in the frequency of hope and harmony. 

I hope these words have brought newfound inspiration on your spiritual journey.  Until next time, much love and light to you all.
