Quietude in Music
by Astra Spider
It can be seen as ironic that one of the things that brings me to stillness is music. Logically, music is the opposite of quiet – as it is made up of sound.
Energetically, however, everything is energy and has energy – including “quiet”!
And being brought into the energy of quiet allows for dreaming – and dreaming allows for creating – and music is one of the most innately creative things made by a soul.
So, intuitively, it doesn’t surprise me at all that the mesmerism of certain melodies often brings me deepest into the sound of silence.
A song which pops instantly to mind when feeling into the stillness of music is “Pandora” by the Cocteau Twins.
Listening to Pandora brings me directly into a state of feeling lightly blanketed by a sprinkling of snow in afternoon sunlight – only it is not a cold snow. It is tepid, healing, perfect; the illumination of the sparkle of each flake echoing through the mirrors of my soul.
This song performs a Soul Retrieval (a form of shamanic healing) on me each time I allow myself to fully relax into the harmonizing care of its trance.
I am snow. I am silence. I am the sun.
What brings you into your state of stillness?
Love,
Astra
