Woodstock designed the seven stones of the Pocket Chakra Chime in an ascending column. This reflects the seven chakras along the spine in the human body.
Woodstock combined colour and sound to underscore the ancient meaning of the major energy centers of the human body. Eastern Philosophy can often be difficult for the Western scientific mind to assimilate and yet, many of the eastern claims are being proven scientifically as the time-honored truths that they are. According to the traditions, there are seven basic chakras. Also, each Chakra location has a unique meaning, orientation and healing potential. In addition, Woodstock Chakra Chimes are intended to remind us of the strength of mind over matter and, through sound, give us a small window into the balance of the physical and metaphysical.
The Woodstock Chimes of Mercury were named for the innermost planet in our solar system. In turn, Mercury was named after the ancient Roman messenger god. Mercury is similar in appearance to the Moon, with lots of craters. Because it is normally not visible due to the glare of the Sun, Mercury can be viewed only in the morning or at twilight.
When Woodstock designed the Chimes of Mercury they designed and handcrafted them for superior musical performance. They hand-tuned them to a universal, pentatonic (five-note) scale which acts in concert with the wind to create random patterns of wonderful sound. It will also harmonise beautifully with all of the other Encore Collection windchimes.
This chime carries a lifetime tuning guarantee.
This chime is designed to hang from a string loop, rather than an o-ring.
Bells have been used throughout the ages to accompany dance, to provide comfort and to warn of possible danger. The Chinese were the first to control the pitch or note of a bell, making it possible for them to play tunes. Soon bells were being used to accompany worship. On New Year’s Eve the bells in Buddhist temples are rung 108 times, once for each of the 108 worldly desires.
In the East bells have become very important and are often decorated with significant symbols. For centuries, tuned bells have been suspended in homes and temples to ward off evil and attract good luck and prosperity. Woodstock Temple Bells are inspired by these ancient bells and work in harmony with the wind to create gentle, soothing tones.
