THE EARTH IN CONSTANT MOVEMENT ​ ​ ​

What is so special about the frequency of 432 Hertz? This topic is being addressed more and more frequently on the internet and in the media . Here are some examples of how music, in connection with vibration and Hertz, enriches our lives:

A brief introduction to heart and vibration :

THE COMMON NAME R ​

Astronomers have long observed that the universe is expanding.

This also affects our Earth, because electromagnetic waves at specific frequencies surround it. These waves are in constant motion. We find wave motion in all areas of life, such as mathematics, physics, chemistry, and many others. In biology, for example, cells grow by expanding. They, too, move at a specific frequency.

THE EARTH IN ​ B EAT

Electromagnetic waves surround the Earth at specific frequencies. This phenomenon was discovered in the mid-20th century by the physicist Winfried Otto Schumann.

This oscillation is permanent. The value of this frequency was determined to be 7.83 Hertz. This frequency of approximately 8 Hertz is known as the Schumann constant or Schumann resonance.

THE ​ NATURE ALIGNS ITSELF ​

We cannot hear or directly see this fundamental frequency of 8 Hertz. But all processes that occur around us are based on this frequency . Everything that moves naturally aligns itself in its basic structure with this frequency.

Many people feel very good after a long walk in nature, for example. The reason for this obviously lies in the coordination and balance of all stimuli on us as individuals.

  FROM ​   8 HERTZ   TO ​   43 2   HERTZ

​

If we start with the natural frequency of 8 Hz and gradually increase it to bring it into the audible range, the note A' ends up at 432 Hz. If we tune our instrument accordingly, we might find ourselves out of sync with other musicians, as their instruments are usually tuned to a different frequency and cannot be easily retuned. This is often the case with brass instruments, pianos, and some electronic instruments. In contrast, many stringed instruments, such as guitars and violins, can be tuned flexibly.

 
 440 HERTZ AND 450 HERTZ

Here's a comparison for you to listen to:

But how is it that all instruments are tuned contrary to this natural frequency?

In the 1920s and 30s, a standard was established in music. This standard defines A as 440 Hertz. All musicians therefore tune their instruments to this frequency. Sometimes, however, concerts are recorded at higher frequencies, up to 450 Hertz. Why? They sound louder and catchier. This theory is controversial.

I deliberately chose 432 Hz. There are also certain initiatives and efforts underway to reintroduce this standard.
