What is your understanding of the Confederation’s view of music?
Some potential areas of discussion might include:
Note that this topic is not specifically about “healing music” but music as a part of third-density life.
This… honestly just made my heart hurt. 
How can one determine what is considered “service to self” or “service to others” when it comes to musical expression? It feels like in order to do that, a lot of judgement would have to be placed upon what sort of musical expression promotes what sort of feelings. Most feelings are based on conditioning, life experiences and biases. Where do the biases come from? Is it from the planetary energy? The societal energy? Is it life conditioning? Is it how you evolved to process emotions? There are so many factors that can come into play when you start picking apart source energy with logic. I guarantee you’ll never find an answer you’ll be satisfied with. Now, if you use your heart, you’ll feel all the healing you’ll ever need from any musical source.
Yes, all music is healing. Making music is healing. I’ve spent years around musicians and the amount of healing I did just being in their presence spoke volumes to me. Pun intended. If you’ve ever sat next to anyone playing the drums, you’d understand. 
Even the presence of simplistic tones can be healing. You could hear some random “boops” and “beeps” and it may bring a smile to your face because it reminds you of something that brings joy to your heart. Or you could just use it to inspire your imagination and come up with a little tune yourself. Even the rhythmic sounds of a construction site can create a beautiful melody if you can isolate the sounds and feel them intuitively.
Now that brings me to my next point. How about the evolution of one who makes music from the beginning of their journey to where they end up? Most people who make music don’t think, “Gee, I wanna be famous. How can I express myself creatively so I can sell my soul later?” No, they make music to heal, to express themselves and then, society puts its “rules” onto how they can “sell” their music and it gets warped at the end of the day. Maybe at one point there were more people who did this because how much “rock stars” were glorified. You can see the evolution in society as the way of treating musicians as “more than human” is becoming less and less of a thing and more original content from the heart is being favoured. Between that and music streaming, the way we can access music as a society has changed. Anyone with a YouTube channel and a good voice can create a following these days.
If you watch any musical documentary, no matter how famous, they are all human at the end of the day, trying their best to make good choices for their own lives. How can we know what it’s like to be them from the outside of their lives? In Pink’s documentary, “All I Know So Far,” she puts on these crazy arena shows then goes back to raising her kids. She says it’s “surreal.” Even the singers performing are aware (or mostly aware) of the impact of that kind of life is all a matter of perspective. I think this attitude keeps one more grounded than most.
How you look at and feel about music personally says a lot too. Perspective matters greatly.
As a good example, During Woodstock ‘99 (I just love how angry my generation was), the song “Break Stuff” by Limp Bizkit led to a riot. On the other hand, that song can be incredibly motivating if you perceive the energy in a specific way. It could be empowering, or it could be destructive. It’s how you perceive the music, not the musical express itself. I can’t speak for mob mentality though…
So I say no, music is not inherently following a polarity itself. It’s unbiased. It takes no sides. It is pure source. Did the music create the atmosphere that lead to the disaster that was Woodstock ‘99? No, it was ego and unbalanced masculine energy. That documentary says a lot, I’d recommend it to anyone who wants a closer look at what unbalanced energy in the music world looks like.
I do believe there are musical expressions that may be made with more sinister intentions, ie. to control and manipulate, but I feel like if you access your heart energy center, you’ll be able to feel that immediately and your heart would be strong enough to know whether or not to walk away from that particular vibration.
I dont know confederation understanding but my metaphysical understanding is that music without words doesnt polarize STO or STS.
Only the music with words can have good or bad influence because words repeated many times with emotion music can hypnotize and influence subconscious mind just like ads. For example Grimes “we appreciate power” song imho has that negative effect to make you basied towards AI.
Although all music without words is neutral, I think STS would be more likely attracted to electric, beat, rap, heavy metal, or focus more so on sound effects rather than on harmony, chord progression.
If you look on harmonies and chord progression, usually those that have simple order and consist of harmonic series tones are in alignment with God. And the more disordered and randomly played the more it sounds like horror and can give anxiety if done on purpose like in horror movies.
I think labeling something as “best” is not necessary even if there could be arguments made for its “best-ness”. I see the value in the music as how it resonates with an individual.
Aesthetic choices like specific harmonies, styles, rhythms, instrumental choices, electric sounds, etc. are tools in service to the authentic expression of the artist. They are tools in service to the idea and the emotions that the artist is exploring.
Does it have to make you feel good or is it okay if it throws you off balance? I connect with both harmonic expression and dissonant expression. We have dissonant emotions that we need to experience and understand. Music and lyrics (and all art) help us do that, I think.
STS vs STO lies in the creator’s intent, not the style. And even with that distinction it still seems like a difficult thing to parse out what is STS and what is STO. Can a piece of music be focused lyrically around a destructive idea that speaks of controlling or doing harm to others? Yes. But is there value in having that piece of music in the world to explore that idea? To get to the root of the emotion behind what may be damaging and harmful. And in that sense, is it then being of service to others?
If I understand STS correctly, there is a conscious intent in that choice of service. I believe an artist can publicly wrestle with a difficult, uncomfortable emotion that may effect others negatively and not be intentionally on the STS path.
I searched for “Bernstein”, and
“Maestro”, then “Netflix” then found this
thread about music.
Yes, I’m writing about Bradley Cooper’s movie,
or more specifically about this movie in relation
to how it depicts Leonard Bernstein, related to
public revealed astrological information.
It can be a strange workflow, to Collect then
Organize, Distill and Express, i.e. CORE.
There’s someone who promotes an idea of
building a second brain, and I might propose
an astrological alignment second brain , to
humanity as a whole, working subconscious.
As you study - it becomes more conscious,
a sort of immortal humanity animated by
astrological mythology. I find it beautiful.
Bernstein had Scorpio rising, Virgo Sun, and
Aries moon. How short that falls in describing
this great person who exaggerated many character
traits that seem significant to the law of one.
Well, it’s arguable - so many gay tolerance
innuendos. Most people are heterosexual.
Hang in there and read on. His north node
was on asteroid Albion which has been
associated to gay emancipation. The movie
suggests this. He seems promiscuous, this
may be Mars in Scorpio conjunct Siwa a
Slavic fertility goddess. He seems poly-
amorous, this may be Cupido on Amor not
far from Venus on Neptune. He loves
everybody, how cool is that?!
A lot of great musicians have grand trine
aspects. He has an obvious Node, moon,
Saturn trine, and also a remarkable Mars,
Pluto/Jupiter and Hylonome water trine.
Watch the movie and realize his wife
epitomizes a muse like the myth. This
is tragic love chord at play, tortured poets!
His music “Mass”, incredible in its nuance,
seems to reflect a sort of yode aspect that
points to Uranus on Leleakuhonua. This
is remarkable because Leleakuhonua has
the longest orbit of any known thing - it is
associated to that which is barely perceptible.
Wake up and listen to Bernstein’s Mass as if
his Uranus yode pattern, the finger of God
pointing in stern attention, it hears what
Leleakuhuna says. Whoa!
Bernstein had Sun near MC - one of our
most famous conductors which in the
movie recognizes as extroverted, in
contrast to introverted creative work,
look at his Uranus yode, largely on the
introverted side of his zodiac - Bernstein as
composer, a genius creator!
A key take-away here, seems that the Sun,
seems an important orchestrator of orchestras!
If you can strive to seek connections,
you might realize a glory at play in the
universe that escapes most people’s ability
to distill and express connections!
Me too.
I haven’t seen the movie yet but I’m interested in watching it with your analysis in mind. And your fixed star knowledge is impressive!
I searched for “Heart” and found this thread.
Here shared is a lyric improv for Session 50,
that was also shared this week. These improvs
may be some sort of echo in this forum.
