The Whole is Based on Music
Manifestation being formed of vibrations, the planets are the primal
manifestation, each planet having its special tone; therefore every
note represents one planet. Every individual therefore has a note
peculiar to himself which is according to his birth planet; for
this reason a certain tone appeals to a particular person according
to the grade of his evolution. Every element has a sound peculiar
to itself; in the finer element the circle of sound expands, and
in the grosser element it narrows. It is therefore distinct in the
former and indistinct in the latter.
When one looks at the cosmos, the movements of the stars and planets,
the law of vibration and rhythm, all perfect and unchanging, it
shows that the cosmic system is working by the law of music, the
law of harmony; and whenever that harmony in the cosmic system is
lacking in any way, then in proportion disaster comes to the world,
and its influence is seen in any destructive forces which manifest
there. The whole of astrological law and the science of magic and
mysticism behind it, are based upon music.
