BREAKING NEWS: COSMIC "DNA" DOUBLE HELIX SPOTTED IN SPACE
The
DNA nebula is about 80 light-years long. It's about 300 light-years
from the supermassive black hole at the center of the Milky Way.
The nebula is nearly perpendicular to the black hole, moving out of the
galaxy at a quick clip--about 620 miles per second (1,000 kilometers per
second). Magnetic field
lines at the galactic center are about 1,000 times stronger than on
Earth. They run perpendicular to the black hole, but parallel through
the
nebula. Scientists think that twisting of these lines is what causes
the double helix shape.
While the black hole might be the first culprit to come to mind, it's more likely that the magnetic field lines are anchored to a giant gas disk that orbits the black hole several light-years away, researchers say. It's like having two strands of rope connected to a fixed point, Morris said. As you spin the strands, they braid around each other in a double helix fashion. In this case the gas and dust of the nebula makes up the strands.
"It's as if there's
a bar across the middle [of the black hole], or
a dumbbell shape, where the strands are anchored, and as it spins
around, it twists the strands together," Morris told SPACE.com. This
process takes a long time, though, since the disk completes one
orbit around the black hole roughly every 10,000 years. But that's an
important number. "Once every 10,000 years is exactly what we need to
explain the twisting of the magnetic field lines that we see in the
double helix nebula," Morris said.
The recipe for a DNA nebula is strict but simple. It requires a strong magnetic field, a rotating body, and a nebulous cloud of material positioned just right. Massive central black holes are the best sources for both the strong magnetic field and rotating body, and since most large galaxies have them, Morris expects DNA-like nebula may be common throughout the universe. "I absolutely expect to see [this configuration] in gas-rich galaxies with all these elements in place," Morris said.
However, these nebulas are tough to spot, and current technology limits scientists' observations to our galaxy.

[Owen Waters, author of The Shift: The Revolution in Human Consciousness, is an internationally known spiritual
teacher who has presented his insights into the New Reality to hundreds of
thousands of seekers. In 1963, at the age of thirteen, he encountered his
first spiritual awakening. The surprise of this mystical experience was such
that his life became focused on a continuous search for spiritual answers.

2. What the F# Is Going On?
Susan Alexjander
If
you Google "F#" you come up with almost two million possible
references, mostly about MicroSoft software and music theory. If,
however, you Google "F# Great Pyramid Egypt," you get 380 picks. The
Great Pyramid?!
What began as a fun hobby for me in the l980s--collecting information
about specific pitches--has turned into a dedicated treasure hunt. As a
composer I love all tones including microtones, but there is something
special about F#. This pitch holds a fascination. It keeps coming up.
This article focuses on F/F#s that appear in the following places:
1. The Great Pyramid
2. DNA
3. Water
4. Schumann Resonances
5. Crop Circles
6. Vela X Pulsar
7. Further F# References.
Collecting the Data
"Frequency" encompasses more than audible sound. If we enlarge our
perspective to take in the fullest possible view of our vibrational
world, then frequency can be just about anything: an angle,
electromagnetic energy, thoughts and feelings, shapes, language. If we
have a number for the "frequency," such as an angle of 45 degrees, we
can start to build data.
This
is, admittedly, a strange country, difficult to define or explain until
our mindset adjusts to it. We have no overall template or blueprint to
refer to, but the work I and many others do reveals there are patterns
which speak to us through these numbers. Math is often "mythic," it
tells stories; shows how things communicate; lends meaning. Numbers can
show the hidden patterns of cosmic creation. Pattern/number fascination
is found today among artists, scientists, musicians, astronomers and,
of course, devotees of sacred geometry. I am indebted to them all.
Capturing F#
The most obvious source for gathering frequency data relative to F# is
to begin with that which we have agreed to call the pitch, or tone, of
F#. I use the tuning scale where C = 1 cycle per second, or 1 hertz.
The numbers on this scale are slightly flatter than the scale using C =
l.03 (A = 440). On the tuning chart where C = 1, all F#s fall in
octaves on the following hertz numbers (rounded off):
1.4, 2.8, 5.6, 11.25, 22.5, 45, 90, 180, 360, 720, 1440, etc.
An
octave is a frequency either doubled, or halved. So, finding an actual
tone in connection with sound on one of these octaves is the first and
most direct method of establishing frequency.
A second way to gather information about this "tone" involves a leap of
faith into a view of our universe as pure vibration. This "Nada Brahma"
("The World Is Sound") cosmology has long been celebrated by ancient
civilizations such as those of India, China, Greece, and many others.
This cosmology has resurfaced in our century as Total Holism--a
perspective of interconnection--with the enthusiastic backing of much
mainstream science. And, if one suspends the usual restrictions on what
we normally think of as "vibration," then any energetic event, whether
an audible tone, electromagnetic frequency (also measured in hertz),
time cycle, rhythm, etc., can be related to an actual sound as long as
we have a number.
For instance, 90 years can also be related
to a vibration of 90 which, if it were sound, would correlate to an F#
on our tuning chart. This is an abstract stretch, but an extremely
valid way to build patterns--i.e., collect all the 90s you can find and
see if they have commonalities. Do they have energies in common? Do
they relate to similar things? Can they begin to tell a story?
The
third method of understanding frequency--Gematria--is an ancient art of
profound integrity found in almost every established language in the
world. Gematria is a method of assigning numbers to letters of the
alphabet to measure energetic patterns. For instance, A = 1, B = 2,
etc. Languages such as Hebrew, Aramaic, Sanskrit, Arabic and even
English have slightly different ways of doing this. I have taken the
simplest method of going steadily through the alphabet from A = 1 to Z
= 26, but with an extra step: I add up the numbers of a word and call
that a hertz number, or frequency. For instance: thunder = 20 + 8 + 21
+ 14 + 4 + 5 + 18 = (you guessed it) 90. F#.
Taken together, these three methods form a data base for frequency
evaluation. Little bits here and there don’t mean much, but like
filings on a magnetic plate, they begin to collect and form a shape or,
in this author's vision, a tantalizing glimpse into that abstract realm
that informs the Whole--what renowned physicist David Bohm called the "Implicate Order."
1. THE GREAT PYRAMID
Many respected researchers now feel that the Great Pyramid may have
been deliberately "tuned" as a resonator. About six years ago, Tom
Danley, an acoustics engineer who used to work for NASA, was invited to
Egypt by the producer of the movie The Mystery of the Sphinx to measure sound in the King's Chamber. Using highly sophisticated equipment, Danley commented,
"I
found some very low frequency sound ... resonances which start at a few
Hz and go upward to 15-20 Hz or so. At least some of these were the
same LF resonances I excited with my sweep, but not all of them.
This sound
was present even if everything wasa silent. I crunched the results of the
measurements, and they were sent on to a musicologist that was part of
the staff [who] identified that there was a pattern of frequencies
which roughly form an F# chord. Not all the resonances fell in the
right place but many did, and some repeated the pattern for many
octaves. In other words, it was roughly tuned to F# over many octaves."
Danley
specifies, albeit generically, "some kind of an F# chord." He implies
that there can be many variations and that this "chord" does not have
to fall exactly on the correct numbers for F or F# on our tuning scale,
but only in the region of these tones: F/F#, A/A#, C/C# (a triad).
Also, the octave levels he measured would have been inaudible to a
human ear and rather felt as pulses. Danley goes on to wonder if these
infrasonic tones were used deliberately to alter brainwaves.
In The Giza Power Plant
(1998) Christopher Dunn proposed that the Great Pyramid was actually a
large acoustical device, analogous to a huge musical instrument.
Fascinatingly, according to mathematical calculations, this edifice is
an integer of the Earth's own dimensions. Dunn believes that the
Pyramid had a harmonic relationship to the Earth and was capable of
responding sympathetically with Earth's resonance. Evidence found
within the Grand Gallery supports his contention that resonators for
converting vibration to airborne sound were installed there. Dunn
offers many measurements which, if they were frequencies, would be F#s,
A#s, and C#s.
Similarly, in Pyramid Quest Dr. Robert Schoch of Boston University concluded after his on-site
study of the Great Pyramid that it was like a giant musical instrument.
Finally, it is well known that the sarcophagus in the King's Chamber is
tuned to A = 438. Musicians such as Paul Horn have recorded this
frequency and made music with it. If you would like to hear these
"pyramid chords," please see the end of this article.
[Author's note: I emailed Tom Danley but received no reply. Later, I was told he had signed a disclaimer
for the Egyptian government and was forbidden to speak further about
his findings. I have no way of verifying whether this is true.]
2. DNA
In an article previously reprinted in DNA Monthly
("Music to the Ears: The Infrared Frequencies of Infrared Bases"), I
related how in l989 I completed a translation of electromagnetic
frequencies gathered from the four DNA bases--cytosine, guanine,
adenine, and thymine--into a sonic medium. I was assisted by Dr. David
Deamer, noted cell biologist at the University of California Santa Cruz.
Briefly,
I found 60 "pitches" ranging over a two and one-half octave. Out of
these 60, 18 were Fs and F#s, 6 were C#s, and 3 were A/A#s ... a total
of 27 or almost half, corresponding neatly to the tunings of the Great
Pyramid. Most of these probably came from the water molecules in DNA:
hydrogen and oxygen. Please see DNA Monthly, Volume 1, Number 4, or visit my website (below) for the full article.
3. WATER
Molecular water frequencies also correspond to "some kind of an F# chord." Again, Dr. Deamer provided me with the wave numbers of water, which are as follows:
1600 converted to hertz = 698 F/F#
2100 converted to hertz = 918 A#
3500 converted to hertz = 134.58 C#
Wave
numbers are collected from a device called a spectrophotometer which
measures vibrational activity occurring in molecular activity (see my
previous article mentioned above).
The
significance of water to our planet is, of course, inestimable. Water
is that humblest yet most important of servants, going about its
business of life (even from the starry heavens) largely unnoticed
because it is so literally who we are. Water is the great connector,
creating our weather, balancing the temperatures of our planet,
bringing life and recycling. Water is found in sunspots, in stars (the
Orion Cloud Complex), at the center of the Earth in the form of
hydrated silicate--literally everywhere. It is in our bodies (roughly
70%) in the same proportion that it is found on the "body" of our
planet. For an astounding read on water, see West Marrin under
References. Marrin greatly expands our vision of water by examining
scientific theory, ancient insights and myths, and water as a universal
mediator.
4. SCHUMANN RESONANCES
Not only are we are about 70% water, we are also quite literally
swimming in Schumann Resonances. These electromagnetic frequencies,
mostly infrasonic and unheard, occur in the cavity between Earth's
crust and the ionosphere about 35 miles above Earth. Schumann
Resonances are activated by lightning storms and the sun. Their basic
frequency, 7.8 Hz, creates a standing wave that travels around the
planet 7.8 times/second. This figure fluctuates by plus or minus 0.5 Hz
daily, as the ionosphere fluctuates.
In
addition to this base frequency of 7.8 Hz, there are also
quasi-harmonics at (rounded off) 14, 19, 25, 30, 36, and 42 Hz,
corresponding to the following tones: B/C, A, D#, G/G#, B, D, and E/F.
So far no F#s. But a curious thing happens when these frequency numbers
are "octavised" up.
Instead
of the usual doubling to create the octave above (i.e., the octave
above 440 = 880)--the method used in linear harmonics and "standard"
physics--when working with the harmonics of a sphere, the rules are
different. Rather than reaching an exact doubling of the original
number, a slight collapse takes place and the upper number is less than
an octave. When you octavise the Schumann frequencies into our hearing
range, six of the seven tones are F#s, A#s, and C#s. The seventh is a
D#. As these ascend they become even more like the aforementioned
pyramid chords: F/F#, A/A#, C/C#. I honestly don't know what this
means, beyond imagining a theoretical "tuning" taking place on our
physical plane. There is a sense that something is trying to line up, or resonate synchronistically.
So far we have collected F# data from the traditional sciences of acoustics, spectrophotometry
(water and DNA), and physics. The fifth source for such data derives
from astronomy and has a fascinating story attached to it: the origin
of the Sumerian God known as EA.
5. VELA X PULSAR (PSR 0833-45)
The
Vela X pulsar was discovered in 1968, but was born when a supernova in
the Gum Nebula, constellation Vela in our Milky Way, blew up sometime
between 11,000 and 7000 B.C.E. (difficult for our scientists to measure
at this time). It would have been visible on Earth around 1300 light
years later, to the ancient Mesopotamians and/or Sumerians, shining for
months in the Southern sky. One scientist describes it this way: "It
would have hung low over the Mediterranean, shining as bright as the
moon, with an endlessly dancing, varying mass of fire, shooting spears
of intense color every way like a fountain ... flooding pulsing
illumination."
A
pulsar is what remains after a supernova has blown up and collapsed
into a dense star. These explosions occur when a star runs out of
hydrogen to burn and gravity takes over. It collapses and becomes
incredibly dense; a matchbox full would weigh a billion tons. A
pulsar's energy expands and lights up the nebula around it. It
possesses a powerful magnetic field that traps and accelerates charged
particles and shoots them through space as radio waves.
Pulsars'
rapid rotation makes them powerful electric generators, capable of
accelerating charged particles to energies of millions of volts--a
million times greater than those of lightning bolts. These voltages
create a blizzard of electrons and anti-matter electrons, or positrons,
equal to the force of thousands of suns! Vela X rotates these powerful
voltages like a lighthouse, at a frequency of 11.24 cycles per second:
F#. Vela X also travels in orbit as a binary system at 90km/sec:
another F# association. We know of more than 1000 pulsars, so what
makes this one special?
This
supernova flash might have altered the course of our planet's
development. There are references to it in Sumarian cuneiform, and on
the mural from Tell Ghassul is an eight-pointed star painted with
sophisticated compounds of 12 to 18 minerals. (Teleilat Ghassul, or
Tulaylât al-Ghassűl, is a large Late Neolithic and Chalcolithic
settlement in the lower Jordan Valley some 5-6 km northeast of the Dead
Sea.)
The supernova would have burned at least 50 times brighter than Venus. George Michanowsky’s wonderful book The Once and Future Star
relates the story of what this pulsar must have meant to the Sumerians
(or earlier cultures) and traces the origins of their highest god, EA
(Babylonian, formerly Enki), to Vela. A supernova event archetypically
symbolizes Death and Transfiguration, as the dying star explodes to
birth new elements essential for life. The explosions provide energy
for the birth of new stars and also accelerate high-energy cosmic rays
that cause many of the DNA mutations needed for the evolution of life.
Some scientists feel that the radiation from the Vela, particularly
neutrinos, could have changed rates of solar nuclear reactions and
increased the sun's luminosity. The Vela explosion might have begun the
sun's cycle of intensity and could even have been a powerful organizing
force for civilization.
Michanowsky writes, "The
psychological and possibly environmental impact of the Vela starburst
triggered a development in [Sumerian] culture that, in a short time
span, made them something entirely different from what they had been
before. For better or worse, humanity had thus quite suddenly bitten
into the fruit from the Tree of Knowledge."
The Vela and Crab pulsars are the only ones known to emit visible
light--another mystery. If you add the Pulsar Code theories of Jose
Arguelles to this mix, it begins to look as though pulsars have a
vital role to play in "stepping down" powerful frequencies emitted by
the Central Sun in the center of our Milky Way as these vibrations
travel to Earth. (Just recently, scientists detected pulses from our
galactic center and remain mystified by them).
Arguelles explains, "These
neutron stars are actually inter-dimensional intersections piercing the
veil of third-dimensional mind. There are many different kinds of these
intersections. Through each inter-dimensional intersection, g-force
bleeds through in a kind of beam. These galactic beams are
synchronously triggered. There are greater and lesser periods of
activation of these beams."
6. CROP CIRCLES
The
phenomenon of Crop Circles is gaining more respect as scientists
continue to legitimize their amazing properties. There are some
intriguing F# references made by Freddy Silva in his book Secrets in the Fields.
"When Jane Ross and I earlier had sat inside the 'Grid Square' (within
the Etchilhampton Flower Circle, 1997)," he writes, "we recorded an
oscillating, high-pitched tone. Its purpose was later made clear during
a channeling session ... The frequency of the note that they gave us is
important ... to be used in the 'opening' process. It's a frequency
that needs to be used to complete the opening for the individual."
Silva
continues that this note, F#, "creates an unusual oscillating effect
between the two cavities of the brain, especially when generated by the
tuned resonant cavity of a quartz crystal bowl. It has a frequency of
5.8 kHz (5800 Hz) and is traditionally associated with the tone of the
Earth." Silva goes on to point out that this frequency is relatively
close to the "other frequency associated with crop circles ... the
trilling noise ... and its frequency of 5.2 kHz."
"F# happens to be the resonant frequency inside the Grand Gallery of
the Great Pyramid at Gizeh, and the floor of the corbelled chamber is
inclined at an angle of 26.3027 degrees, making its vertical height
twenty-eight feet (F#) and the height perpendicular to the floor
twenty-five feet, which are the Grid Square hum and the trilling noise,
respectively," writes Silva. "The Circlemakers and the Pyramid
designers appear to share the same technology. Essentially, the Great
Pyramid contains the necessary ingredients that make it a kind of
transformational, possibly inter-dimensional temple ... its effects on
the molecules of steel, meat, and particularly water are already well
known.”
In addition, Silva points out that "F# is regarded with great respect
by the ancient Chinese as Hu, the tone of the Earth. (Hu is also
referenced by Hi Khan as the origin of sound.) Native American flute
makers to this day tune their instruments to serenade Mother Earth to
this note." In a 1997 radio interview, Silva also references
acoustician Tom Danley's work in measuring the resonant frequencies in
the Great Pyramid (cited above): "The notes form an F# chord which,
according to ancient Egyptian texts, was the harmonic of our planet.
Danley's tests show that these frequencies are present in the King's
Chamber even when no sounds are being produced."
7. FURTHER F# REFERENCES
A.
The number 360 is often referred to as "Spherical Consciousness," i.e.
expanded awareness, leading towards a holistic view that everything is
connected and part of everything else.
B. 11.11 = F/F#, an "opening gateway for mind expansion." Once again, this opens onto a more holistic reality.
C. Speed of light = 363.83 = an octave of F# (186,282.3959 Hz)
D. Gematria of "Consciousness" = 175 (F/F#)
E. Gematria of "Zero Point Field" = 174 (F/F#)
F. Gematrias of "Hate" + "Love" = 88, "Good" + "Evil" = 89, "Yin" + "Yang" = 88 ... all octaves of F/F#.
Conclusions
I vote for an intelligent web of connection--a template, a
grid, a Great Tone River as a carrier wave for frequency and
information. Were the Egyptians trying to anchor this grid? or trying
to act as a conduit between Heaven and Earth? So many questions arise.
But it seems reasonable to conclude that water is the glue, the
communicator, that holds everything together ... the huge entity, if
you will, that supports vibrational energies traveling between
dimensions.
I
believe that we are glimpsing a grand cosmology and that these
energetic connections are part of a web of vital sentience. My vision
is that we bring our different puzzle pieces together in a shared
design. What might we find? As
a composer I like making music with these tones "just to see/hear what
happens." Sonic relationships are exciting and great beauty can be
found there. But for certain I want to be on the train, in the middle,
and at the party if and when a huge transformation happens soon to this
planet. I'm betting it will happen, and that it will be the best game
in town.
[Author's Note:
I’m able to create microtones on my Yamaha DX7 and have come up with
seven possible chords using slightly different F#s (more correctly,
F/F#s) as the root of the chord. One is based on the sarcophagus
tuning, another uses octaves of 11.11, another uses the Sepher Yetzirah,
and so forth. I call them "Pyramid Chords." When two or three of
them are played simultaneously, they have a weird and haunting effect.
Please contact me if you would like further information or a sound
file. You can also hear them in the soundtrack of Zero Waiting, a video "short" by myself and Diana Hobson available from my website.]

Did You Know ... Some scholars such as William Henry contend that the famous quest for the Holy Grail is actually a quest to attune our DNA so that it resonates with Galactic Center's signature creational frequency? This divine tone capable of generating a "love song in the blood," a San Graal (Holy Blood) or "Song Grail," can in turn attune the core of our being, our DNA, to the galactic Core's transformational vibration--in the process, promoting a genetically driven metamorphosis of both consciousness and physiology.
