About the event

Join us at Soul Farm as we celebrate the Summer Solstice in Community with Crystal Journey, Fire, Cacao, Sound Journeys, Potluck, Camping, Swimming, Live Music and Movement. This event starts Friday evening June 16th and is complete Sunday June 18th - enjoy the entire weekend or stop in for a portion of the day.  Either way, we would love to see you!

The solstice marks the halfway point in the year, which is both the longest day of the year and the first day of summer.  Fire and the Sun are symbols associated with the Summer Solstice that represent the qualities of purification, transformation, activation, empowerment, and enlightenment.  It’s about the spiritual fire that fuels your spiritual journey to connect with your higher power. The summer solstice is also when the sun enters Cancer. This water sign is all about love, home, nurturing, and the pure joy of connecting with other people and with Mother Nature. What a perfect way to spend this time than with the Soul Farm Community in our beautiful nature location!

The Solstice Sound Journey with Crystal Journey. . .

After imbibing Sacred Ceremonial Cacao to open your heart and expand the reach of your third eye, you will be immersed in the music and frequencies of 6 Quartz Crystal Bowls, 8-10 Paiste Planet Gongs, 2 Santoors &  Harmonica in two 40 to 50 minute sets. During each of the two experiences, David will also bless us with his vocals through Harmonized Chants to move you even deeper into your Journey. Each performance is sonically pure, unique and completely channeled for a full body frequency attunement & alignment.

About The Instruments:

Paiste Gongs:

Planet Gongs are tuned to the natural harmonic series based on the orbital properties of the Earth, Moon, Sun, and Planets. All of these gongs resonate in harmony with the celestial bodies and communicate a distinct aspect of the Music of the Spheres, which was first documented by Pythagoras in the 6th Century BC. Each planet gong contributes a vital pitch to the total harmonic resonance of our solar system.

Crystal Bowls:

The bowls are made of 99.992% crushed quartz crystal that is heated to 4000 degrees in a centrifugal mold. The thickness of the bowl determines the note, digitally tuned to C D E F G A and B corresponding to the charkas, our energy centers; root (C), sacral (D), solar plexus (E), heart (F), throat (G), third eye (A), and crown (B) The diameter of the bowl determines the pitch, ranging from 6 inches to 22 inches.

Persian Santoor:

Persian Santoor consists of a trapeziform case made of walnut wood, approximately 90 cm wide at the broad end, 36 cm wide at the narrow end and 6 cm deep. The strings are fixed to hitch-pins along the left-hand side and wound round metal wrest-pins on the right by means of which they are tuned with a tuning-key (Tuning Wrench). Each quadruple set of strings rests on a movable bridge of hardwood (kharak). The bridges are placed so that the strings are divided into three sections, giving the fundamental note and two higher octaves.

There are nine (or sometimes 10, 11 and 12) quadruple strings an either side so that, with 18 groups of strings, 27 different notes can be played. The bass strings are of brass or copper and the trebles of steel.

Persian Santoor is played by striking the strings with two light hammers (mezrab) held in three fingers of each hand. The ends of the sticks are usually covered with cloth to soften their impact on the strings.

Harmonica:

The harmonica, also known as a French harp or mouth organ, is a free reed wind instrument used worldwide in many musical genres, notably in blues, American folk music, classical music, jazz, country, and rock and roll. There are many types of harmonica, including diatonic, chromatic, tremolo, octave, orchestral, and bass versions. A harmonica is played by using the mouth (lips and tongue) to direct air into or out of one or more holes along a mouthpiece. Behind each hole is a chamber containing at least one reed. A harmonica reed is a flat elongated spring typically made of brass, stainless steel, or bronze.

We really look forward to Sharing this time with you!
