Solfeggio Frequencies

The Solfeggio frequencies are a specific set of musical tones derived from an ancient 6-tone scale. These frequencies are reputed to have been used in sacred music, including the beautiful and calming Gregorian Chants. The legend suggests that these chants, and the specific tones they used, were lost for centuries before being rediscovered by Dr. Joseph Puleo in the 1970s.

The Theory: Resonance and Vibration

The core principle behind the healing power of Solfeggio frequencies is **resonance**. Everything in the universe, including our bodies, is in a state of vibration. Every organ, bone, and cell has its own resonant frequency. When our body is out of balance, often due to stress, illness, or environmental factors, these frequencies can become disharmonious.

Solfeggio frequencies are thought to be "original" sounds that match the resonant frequencies of a healthy, balanced body and mind. By listening to these pure tones, it's believed that we can use the principle of resonance to gently coax our cells and energy centers back into their natural, healthy vibrational state. This process is often referred to as "entrainment," where our own energy field begins to synchronize with the external frequency, promoting harmony and facilitating healing from the inside out.

Ancient History and Modern Interpretation

The six core frequencies are said to be encoded within the book of Numbers in the Old Testament and were also central to the "Hymn to St. John the Baptist," where each line of the hymn began on a successively higher note of the scale: Ut, Re, Mi, Fa, Sol, La. These syllables correspond to the original six tones:

• **396 Hz (UT):** Liberating Guilt and Fear
• **417 Hz (RE):** Facilitating Change and Undoing Situations
• **528 Hz (MI):** Transformation and Miracles (DNA Repair)
• **639 Hz (FA):** Connecting Relationships
• **741 Hz (SOL):** Awakening Intuition, Solving Problems
• **852 Hz (LA):** Returning to Spiritual Order

Later, three more frequencies (174 Hz, 285 Hz, and 963 Hz) were added to complete the full spectrum of creation and spiritual consciousness.

How to Practice with Solfeggio Tones

While the scientific evidence for specific claims like DNA repair remains largely anecdotal and is a subject of ongoing research, millions of people find these tones to be powerful tools for meditation, relaxation, and focus. Their pure, mathematical nature can have a profoundly calming effect on a chaotic mind.

For the best experience, find a quiet space where you can listen without distraction. You can use headphones or speakers. As you listen, focus on the area of your life or body associated with the frequency. For a more pleasant listening experience, especially for longer sessions, you can layer the pure tone with ambient music.
